President calls for PMR MFA to make efforts to revival of 5+2 format

1 / 1

1. To promote the stable functioning of all levels of the negotiation process on the Moldovan-Pridnestrovian settlement, including preventing attempts to destroy the "5 + 2" format. Here's what I would like to add to this. The question and tasks are perfectly clear and understandable. Unfortunately, as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, the "5 + 2" format did not meet last year, the working groups were poorly represented in terms of interaction to address specific issues. The questions remained on the agenda, in the "Berlin +" protocols and other protocols. All the questions are clear and understandable. Citizens from both the left and right banks are waiting for implementation, as they directly affect the lives of ordinary people. Just yesterday I had a meeting with Mr Neukirch (Head of the OSCE Mission to the Republic of Moldova), during which we came to a common understanding that neither the coronavirus nor any electoral processes should freeze or stop the negotiation process. It needs to be developed. Therefore, the task for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is to make every effort to unfreeze the work of the format and negotiations.

In addition, Vitaly Viktorovich, I would like to draw your attention to the work of the JCC. Facilitate the work of the Joint Control Commission to stabilize and prevent any attempts to question Russia's peacekeeping mission on the banks of the Dniester. The peacekeeping mission of Russia on the banks of the Dniester is the guarantor and foundation of the negotiation process. The negotiation process will be under attack based on existing practice without peacekeeping.

2. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs continues to apply political and diplomatic measures to prevent and minimize negative elements of pressure from the Republic of Moldova.

3. To contribute to the expansion of existing and establishment of new socio-cultural, socio-humanitarian and trade and economic contacts with the regions of the Russian Federation, Ukraine, Europe.

4. To promote the strengthening of Russian-Pridnestrovian interaction through civil society institutions and public organizations with an emphasis on protecting the rights of compatriots and Russian citizens in Pridnestrovie.

5. Continue to work to strengthen the representation of the PMR on authoritative international platforms by informing about Pridnestrovie, the republic's right to self-determination and independence, the prerequisites for the formation and development of Pridnestrovian statehood.

5. Through the Official Representation of the PMR in the capital of the Russian Federation, continue work in the field of protecting the rights and interests of the PMR citizens living in the Russian Federation.

6. Continue systematic work to expand the number of grounds for obtaining Russian citizenship by residents of Pridnestrovie in a simplified manner, obtaining Russian maternity capital, medical insurance by Russian citizens living in the PMR, and obtaining the status of a “Russian-Pridnestrovian university” for the Pridnestrovian State University.

These issues have long been on the agenda and, naturally, those deputies of the State Duma of the Russian Federation who are elected from Pridnestrovie should contribute to their advancement for further resolution. In addition, of course, it is necessary to use all possible contacts with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, senators of the Russian Federation and other officials to achieve a result in terms of solving the tasks set.
