On Thursday, Moldovan Deputy Prime Minister for Reintegration Issues Victor Osipov has commenced a 2-day round of consultations on the Transnistria problem with the new Ukrainian authorities.<\/p>\n

And on Wednesday, Osipov met at the Bendery Office of the OSCE Mission to Moldova with Transnistrian minister of foreign affairs Vladimir Yastrebchak and discussed with him questions of implementing the confidence-building measures entrusted to profiled working groups of Chisinau and Tiraspol experts.<\/p>\n

The governmental press service wrote in this connection, “Having assessed the dynamic of the expert groups’ activities in the fields of public health, environment protection and railroad transportation, the parties agreed to stimulate the reaching of pragmatic solutions, including through implementing joint projects, such as e.g. modernization of the Tiraspol Prenatal Center and creation of the Euroregion “Dniester””.<\/p>\n

Osipov touched on the question of journalist Ernest Vardanyan’s arrest by the Transnistrian security service, and presented the Moldovan Government’s solicitation on lifting unfounded charges off the journalist and on releasing him.<\/p>\n

In the context of the earlier-stated position of the Transnistrian side on the need to ensure a legal provision for the expert groups’ activities, the Moldovan side has put forward its proposals to this regard.<\/p>\n

The consultations in Bender\/Tighina and Kyiv were organized in the run-up to the May 24 Astana consultations of the political representatives of Moldova and Transnistria with delegations of the Russian Federation, Ukraine, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, the European Union and the United States [the seven forming the 5+2 negotiation format]. Osipov will fly to Astana (Kazakhstan) straight from Kyiv. The former Soviet republic of Kazakhstan is currently presiding the OSCE.<\/p>\n

In Astana, the delegations will consider Transnistrian settlement questions and promotion of trust-building measures. Tiraspol has stated its intention to attend the Astana consultations, and minister Yastrebchak said Transnistria regards the 5+2 format “an essential negotiation ground”.<\/p>\n

“At the same time, we proceed from the assumption that official work in this format may be resumed on certain conditions. In this respect, we shall be fully following the Kyiv Joint Statement adopted by two guarantor countries [Russia and Ukraine, on May 17], and shall be acting to resume the negotiation process”, Vladimir Yastrebchak said on the Transnistrian television on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
