The PMR President in the first part will outline the agenda and speak out on all points. The list of topical issues for the Pridnestrovian side is structured. It identifies both topics that have a long and rather rich history and new aspects of the negotiation process that require detailed discussion and decision-making. The guests were offered an active form of dialogue with the current exchange of information, opinions and suggestions.
