“We will continue to support the territorial integrity of Moldova in the process of the Transnistrian settlement and jointly insist on the withdrawal of Russian troops from the Transnistrian region,” the press service of the ministry’s ministry quotes.
On November 30, the elected President of Moldova Maia Sandu said that it was necessary to withdraw the Russian peacekeepers from Transnistria, and make the mission a civilian under the auspices of the OSCE.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, commenting on the words of the President-elect, noted that the termination of control over the ammunition depot in the region is fraught with serious consequences.
Pridnestrovie noted that Chisinau raises an artificial problem of "withdrawing troops" from the region.
