Sandu declared Moldova's interest in continuing cooperation within the CIS

Thus, she answered the question about the possible withdrawal of the country from the CIS.

“As long as the country can benefit from agreements (within the CIS. -

), it should receive them.

Now there are problems with the observance of these agreements by the Russian side.

But there are other countries with which we have commercial relations.

We must be pragmatic," TASS quoted her as saying.

Earlier, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko said that a possible exit of Moldova from the CIS would negatively affect the Moldovan economy.

Moscow believes that this would be a wrong step on the part of Chisinau.
