TIRASPOL, TRANSISTRIA / MOLDOVA - SEPTEMBER 1: A bust of Lenin in front of the House of Soviets building on September 1, 2023 in Tiraspol, Moldova (Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic). Tiraspol is the capital of Transnistria situated on the eastern bank of the Dniester River. Republic Day is the main state holiday. Transnistria broke away from Moldova in 1990 and is unrecognised by the international community as an independent state. The de-facto administration of Transnistria is supported economically, diplomatically, and militarily by Russia, which is believed to have 1,500 soldiers stationed there.

This was reported by the Moldovan publication Newsmaker.
It is noted that in the statement, the deputies emphasized that Moldova has initiated an “economic war,” causing Transnistria’s budget to suffer from a multimillion-dollar deficit, and refuses to negotiate with Tiraspol. Because of this, the “deputies” decided to appeal to the OSCE, CIS, European Parliament, International Committee of the Red Cross, and the Secretary-General of the UN. They called for “influencing the leadership of Moldova to return to adequate dialogue and stop violating the rights and freedoms of the inhabitants of Transnistria.”
They also urged reaching out to participants in the international negotiation process in the “5+2” format.
Recall that on February 28, a congress of local deputies at all levels began in unrecognized Transnistria, which had not been held for 18 years. Participants are officially supposed to discuss the pressure allegedly exerted on the region by the pro-Western government of Moldova.
