FM: Attempts to remove from Transnistria Russian peacekeepers will not contribute to settlement
The attempts of some political forces to reform the current peacekeeping mission in Transnistria do not contribute to the resolution of conflicts in the region, told in the press service of the Ministry of foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.
" I must admit that certain political forces in the EU are still obsessed with the idea of transformation of the peacekeeping operation in Transnistria in some monogramming mission. Not so long ago this topic was once more raised in the process held in Brussels round table " with name " Reform of the peacekeeping mission in Transnistria ", which was attended by Commissioners of different political forces and movements ", - reported in the report on the Internet office of the Ministry of foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation. The Ministry noted that " the mandate of the current peacekeeping mission has not been exhausted. Operation in Transnistria is unique: in the 22 years of its holding did not die one peacekeeper was not documented a single serious conflict." Russia, Moldova and Transnistria, which established General peacekeeping operation, and then acceded To Ukraine from the very beginning has determined that the reformatting will occur when the conditions for the political arrangements in the Transnistrian settlement. To such provisions, the parties came close in 2003, but with the direct intervention of Brussels and the capital of the United States, this opportunity Moldovan side was missed - the signing of the document, known as the " Kozak Memorandum " was ripped off, " added the Agency." It is clear that the main motive of political forces advocating for the transformation of the current peacekeeping mission, is not the achievement of guarantees peace and stability on the Dniester, and the desire at any cost to bring the Russian peacekeepers from the conflict zone, " he said in the Ministry, to deduce, because it's not going to be able to bring the conflict. Remember, September 26, Minister of foreign Affairs of Moldova Natalia Gherman from the rostrum of the UN General Assembly said that the Russian Federation must withdraw troops from Transnistria, so they replaced the International civil mission. However, Moscow considers Attempts by Moldova and Ukraine extrusion from Transnistria Russian peacekeepers unfriendly actions, undermining the foundations of peacekeeping operations. Remember, the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR), about 60% of whose citizens are Russians and Ukrainians sought to secede from Moldova even before the collapse of the USSR. The formation of a sovereign country Transnistria was declared September 2, 1990 according to the results of referenda and gatherings of Residents 1989-1990 years. At present world in the field of support of the peacekeeping force. Tiraspol is seeking international recognition, Moldova offers Transnistrians autonomy from a single country.
