President Vladimir Voronin abstains from the participation in the meeting scheduled for 25 March, with the Transnistrian breakaway leader Igor Smirnov, on the grounds that the latter banned the entry of the mediators in the negotiations in the „5+2” format on the part of the EU and the USA to the Transnistrian territory.<\/p>\n

According to a press release of the Ministry of Reintegration, quoted by BASA-press, the ban on entry to the Transnistrian region for the officials "proves that the Transnistrian party is not ready to keep the commitments assumed in order to continue the dialog".<\/p>\n

"The Ministry of Reintegration expresses its hope that the Transnistrian party will take every necessary measure so that the spirit of constructivism, openness and cooperation comes back to the Tiraspol’s position, and the bans of entry to the region for the participants in the negotiations are cancelled. Only through such approach Chisinau sees the continuation of further consultations as opportune and fruitful.” the statement made by the Ministry of Reintegration has shown.<\/p>\n

The Transnistrian leader Igor Smirnov announced on 24 March that EU Special Representative for Moldova Kalman Mizsei, US Ambassador to Chisinau Asif J. Chaudhry and Czech Ambassador to Moldova Petr Kypr had been declared persona non-grata on the Transnistrian territory.<\/p>\n

The entry ban for the European officials to the Transnistrian region serves as a feed-back following the EU decision to prolong entry ban to the EU for a range of Transnistrian administration members, especially for Igor Smirnov, till 2010.<\/p>\n

The meeting between Moldova’ President Vladimir Voronin and the leader of the Transnistrian administration Igor Smirnov had to be held on 25 March at 10:00 a. m., at the Centre for Creation for Children and Youth in Tiraspol. They agreed upon the meeting within the president’s visit to Moscow where he had a bilateral meeting with Russia’s President Dmitri Medvedev, with the participation of the leader of the Transnistrian administration.<\/p>\n

Within the meeting the participants were to evaluate the functioning of the eight work groups created to elaborate the confidence-building measures between Chisinau and Tiraspol in the social-economic and humanitarian domains and to single out new tasks related to this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
