The first days of March became tragic for the Pridnestrovian people 29 years ago – large-scale aggression of Moldova began, the bloody war was provoked, which took many lives, including civilians.
The President of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic Vadim Krasnoselsky was in Dubossary today, where shots sounded on the night of March 1-2, 1992. The PMR President lowered the flowers to each of the 34 graves as well as to the stone slab erected in memory of the defenders of Pridnestrovie, located at the Memorial Complex of Military Glory in the city of Dubossary. The heads of state authorities and administration, the state administration and the city council, military personnel, members of public organizations, residents of Dubossary and guests of the city took part in the mourning ceremony. The memory of the fallen heroes was honored with a Minute of silence.
Vadim Krasnoselsky at the end of the ceremony talked with the defenders of Pridnestrovie and journalists. He said that nationalist attacks towards the Pridnestrovians began even before the spring of 1992. In March, Moldova switched from inciting pinpoint conflict situations to large-scale aggression.
The PMR President recalled the documents adopted by Moldova, by which it made Pridnestrovie independent in fact, and that the Moldovan authorities, directing their weapons towards Pridnestrovians - people whom they considered their own citizens, perfectly understood that there was nothing to defend, that they ruined a single state with their own hands.
Vadim Krasnoselsky emphasized that he does not accept the idea imposed by some Moldovan politicians that one should forget the past, accept and live in the future. The PMR President recalled that no one took responsibility during almost three decades for the crimes of the early 90s of the last century, committed by Moldovan nationalists on the Pridnestrovian land.
