Tiraspol, June 23. /Novosti Pridnestrovya/. Today, Tiraspol has contacts with Chisinau at different levels, but Moldovan-Pridnestrovian negotiations as such are not conducted either at the level of heads of state (1 + 1) or in the international format 5 + 2.
As the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the PMR Vitaly Ignatiev noted in an interview with the Russia-24 TV channel, "the Moldovan leadership has simply been escaping from dialogue with Pridnestrovie in recent years." He recalled that the President of the PMR Vadim Krasnoselsky sent several personal appeals to the Head of the Republic of Moldova, Maya Sandu, urging her to sit down at the negotiating table with a specific agenda, consisting of social and humanitarian issues. The Moldovan side ignored this opportunity.
The negotiation process in the 5 + 2 format is also stagnating since some problems remain unresolved there: the freedom of movement of Pridnestrovian vehicles, the delivery of medicines to the PMR, and the ongoing financial and banking blockade of Pridnestrovian enterprises.
Vitaly Ignatiev believes that today Moldova is not only unprepared but is also afraid of negotiations, as it has nothing to offer.
“Their / Chisinau` - ed. note/position is very weak, they disrupted everything that could be disrupted, they did not fulfill about 180 agreements that we signed over more than a quarter of a century,” the Head of the Pridnestrovian Foreign Ministry emphasized.
He also drew attention to the latest request to the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Moldova from the Deputy of the ruling PAS party, Oazu Nantoi. Nantoi calls on the Moldovan Constitutional Court to interpret whether there is a usurpation of power by the representatives of Pridnestrovie.
“This is probably the answer to all questions whether the current Moldovan Government is ready for real negotiations with the PMR,” Ignatiev said.
