Bringing together representatives of the parliamentary bodies of Chisinau and Tiraspol can be a useful way of building confidence between the two side, considers the Special Representative of the OSCE Chairperson-in-Office for conflicts, Ambassador Andrii Deshchytsia, who concluded a two-day visit to Moldova, Info-Prim Neo reports. According to a press release from the OSCE Mission to Moldova, Deshchytsia met Moldovan chief negotiator Eugen Carpov in Chisinau and Transdniestrian leader Yevgeniy Shevchuk and chief negotiator Nina Shtanski in Tiraspol to discuss the preparations for the next round of 5+2 talks on the Transdniestrian settlement process scheduled for 18 and 19 February in Lviv, Ukraine. “I have listened carefully to both sides and I believe we have a common understanding of the next stages of the negotiation process,” said Deshchytsia. “I underlined the need to come to Lviv with a positive approach and willingness for real results.” The Special Representative’s meetings came just two weeks after Ukrainian Foreign Minister Leonid Kozhara made his first official visit as OSCE Chairperson to Moldova, where he emphasized that the Transdniestrian settlement process is the Chairmanship’s highest priority.
