Each territorial conflict is different; it has its demographical, historical, ethnical and religious particularities, that is why the Transnistrian conflict cannot be compared to any other dispute in the region, Miguel Angel Moratinos, OSCE chairman-in-office and Spanish Foreign Minister, told a news conference today. Spain’s experience in this field is positive, but not to the extent to which it could suggest a solution for the Transnistria settlement, Miguel Angel Moratinos said. The Spanish official pleaded for a peaceful settlement of the dispute, which will respect the territorial integrity of Moldova. The OSCE chairman-in-office highlighted the importance of urgently resuming the 5+2 format talks. For this purpose, on October 11 Viena will host talks in the 3+2 format (negotiators and mediators). Moratinos assured the official Chisinau of Spain’s support in advancing on the path of European integration, adding that nobody doubts now that Moldova belongs in Europe. At the same time, the EU needs to establish its own institutional frame before deciding to go for a new enlargement, the official added. After meeting with the key leaders of the country, Miguel Angel Moratinos left for Tiraspol.
