Earlier it was reported that Transnistria turned to Russia due to pressure and blockade from the Moldovan authorities.

“The government and the Bureau of Reintegration reject propaganda statements emanating from Tiraspol,” RIA Novosti quotes Serebryan as saying.

The politician emphasized that Pridnestrovie allegedly benefits from the course pursued by Moldova.

Earlier, Moldovan President Maia Sandu said that the authorities would like to resolve the Transnistrian conflict before the country joins the European Union.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov noted that Moscow will not allow 200 thousand Russian citizens in Transnistria to become victims of “another Western adventure” to destabilize the region.
