The Congress of Deputies of Transnistria decided to turn to Russia for help. The draft resolution also contains an appeal to the Secretary General of the UN, the CIS, the European Parliament and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that Moscow will not allow 200 thousand Russian citizens to become victims of “another Western adventure” to destabilize the region. The head of the unrecognized Moldavian Republic, Vadim Krasnoselsky, said that the Moldovan government had switched from pressure to methods of pressure.
