Tiraspol, November 30 /Novosti Pridnestrovya/. Pridnestrovian public organizations are highly concerned about the aggressive statements of the former adviser to US President John Bolton as well as proposals to eliminate Pridnestrovie by NATO forces to curb Russia. According to the statement, prepared by all-Pridnestrovian People’s Forum, the PMR Civic Chamber, the Republican Union of the PMR Defenders as well as the PMR Joint Workers’ Council, the American representative’s aggressive statements reflect the general strategic course of US conduct to exacerbate confrontation with Russia and its allies.
According to the statement, the American hawks’ attacks on Pridnestrovie, where more than 220 thousand Russian citizens are living permanently as well as a peacekeeping operation has been successfully operating under Russian auspices for more than 29 years, have a quite obvious explanation: the desire to strike a blow against Russia’s interests.
At the same time, in the document, it’s noted that Moldova has followed in the wake of Washington’s policy and received its support. At the same time, over the past years, relations between Moldova and Pridnestrovie have been systematically degrading.
“The current Moldovan leadership representatives, known for their anti-Pridnestrovian views, are continuing to destroy the negotiation process’s existing mechanisms and are ready to reach the point of conflict to start implementing a conflict scenario to Pridnestrovie with the Washington supporting,” the document emphasizes. “A striking example is the embargo on vehicles with Pridnestrovian license plates movement on the Ukraine territory, introduced on September 1 with Moldova’s active participation.” Further tightening of blockade measures may lead to the import restrictions of medicines, food as well as industrial goods and, eventually, to the extensive humanitarian disaster in the republic.
Pridnestrovian public organizations called on the Moldovan leadership to officially reaffirm its commitment to peaceful ways to resolve conflict, but the Russian Federation to prevent the escalation of regional tension as well as situation’s deterioration of its citizens and compatriots living in Pridnestrovie.
The former adviser to the US president on national security John Bolton, in a 19Fortyfive edition’s article, called on the USA to unfreeze conflicts in the post-Soviet area as a global response to Russian policy. At the same time, according to John Bolton, the destruction of Pridnestrovie became one of the priorities.
The text of an appeal
On the statements’ inadmissibility of the former adviser to the United States President
We express deep concern on behalf of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic’s general public in connection with the US representative’s aggressive statements and proposals to liquidate Pridnestrovie by NATO forces to curb Russia. We remind Mr. Bolton that the Pridnestrovian state was established on September 2, of the year of 1990 as a result of the free expression of will its multinational people, including taking into account the Sovereignty Declaration adopted by the Parliament of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Moldova dated 23 June 1990, which established legitimate grounds for the approval of Moldova’s as well as Pridnestrovian statehood as two equal MSSR successors, which previously also existed separately.
Against the background of every fact, the comments of the American ex-civil servant about the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic’s artificiality, indicate a low level of understanding of historical facts and a real situation lack of privity.
The American representative’s aggressive statements reflect the US general strategic line of conduct to exacerbate confrontation with Russia and its allies. Every attack of the American hawks on Pridnestrovie, where more than 220 thousand Russian citizens are living permanently as well as a peacekeeping operation has been successfully operating under Russian auspices for more than 29 years, has a quite obvious explanation the desire to strike at Russia’s interests.
We pay attention to the fact that the representatives of Moldova’s current leadership not only make decisions with a constant look at Washington but also directly receive multimillion-dollar military aid in the form of certain classified types of weapons delivered by the US Air Force planes.
Additionally, over the past few years, relations between Pridnestrovie and Moldova have been systematically degrading. Representatives of the current Moldovan leadership, known for their anti-Pridnestrovian views, continue destroying the negotiation process existing mechanisms and are ready to reach the point to start implementing a conflict scenario to Pridnestrovie with Washington’s support. A striking example is an embargo on vehicles with Pridnestrovian license plates movement on the Ukraine territory, introduced on September 1 with active Moldova’s participation.
We invite the Moldovan leadership to respond to the American ex-official’s threatening calls and to officially confirm its commitment to peaceful methods of resolving relations with Pridnestrovie.
The adequate response’s lack from Chisinau will indicate that Moldovan authorities intend to follow American advice, increasing pressure on Pridnestrovie as well as the risk of escalating conflict.
The situation deterioration which is unfolding before us is increasing the threat of another blockade against Pridnestrovie in the form of Moldova’s as well as Ukrainian customs and border control tightening on the Pridnestrovian-Ukrainian border, which will lead to import restrictions of medicines, food as well as industrial goods. This may also lead to a large-scale humanitarian catastrophe in the republic.
We should pay the Russian Federation’s attention to the fact that soon Pridnestrovie may be confronted with aggressive blockade actions, and therefore we call on the Russian leadership to prevent the escalation of the situation regional tension and deterioration of its citizens and compatriots, living in Pridnestrovie.
