In this context, Vadim Krasnoselsky noted the significant contribution of the EU Delegation and personally of Peter Michalko to the establishment of mutually beneficial contacts between Pridnestrovie and the European Union.

The interlocutors also spoke about the course of the negotiation process between Pridnestrovie and the Republic of Moldova.
