This was stated by Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Rudenko, who said that Moscow did not see any risks in Transnistria and wanted a peaceful settlement of the situation in the region, Reuters and TASS reported.
“Our position remains the same: we want a peaceful settlement of the Transnistrian problem, while respecting Moldova’s territorial integrity and the special status of the region,” Rudenko said.
Earlier, Deputy Commander of Russia’s Central Military District Rustam Minekayev said establishing full control of southern Ukraine would give Russia access to Transnistria.
