MOSCOW, October 1. /TASS/. Russian Vice-Premier Dmitry Rogozin said on Wednesday Russia will remain a reliable peacekeeper and will not allow a replay of the Ukrainian scenario on the borders of Moldova’s breakaway region of Transdniestria.
“No need to meddle in Transdniestria, no need to try to unleash hysteria on the border and no need to whip up the situation because citizens of the Russian Federation live there,” Rogozin said.
It is not worth indulging in illusion if Russia protects its own citizens. “Of course, it [Russia] does. Don’t try to test our patience and our strength,” he said.
Russia will do its duty till the end and it will do all “to be a reliable and stable peacekeeper and partner in Tiraspol and in Chisinau”, Rogozin said.
Many people in the Moldovan capital look at Russia with interest and sympathy, he said, adding that a year ago he saw hundreds of thousands of people, who greeted Russian envoys.
Most of people stand for security despite hyperactivity of Russian adversaries, Rogozin said. http://en.itar-tass.com/russia/752249

Moldova violates obligations by signing deal with EU — Transdniestrian president...
ReplyDeleteMOSCOW, October 2. /TASS/. Moldova violated the obligations under the Moscow Memorandum by signing the Association Agreement with the EU, President of Transdniestria Yevgeny Shevchuk said on Thursday.
“Under the Memorandum signed at the high level with the OSCE presence, Moldova was to take a decision in coordination with Transdniestria,” he said.
The Association Agreement does not meet the interests of Transdniestrian manufacturers and the region’s economy as a whole, Shevchuk said.
“We seek to integrate into the Customs Union [Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan]. We’re trying to build relations in this direction although, of course, we’re ready to cooperate with all countries and markets,” he said.
Moldova and the EU signed the Association Agreement on June 27, 2014.

“The President of Russia has assured us that Russia is not interested in the creation of a new 'frozen conflict', a new Transdniestria,” Rompuy said, adding that at the talks Putin confirmed his support for keeping the eastern regions as part of Ukraine.
