Comment of the Head of the Official Representation of the Republic of South Ossetia in Transdniestria Sergei Surago for ratification of the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Partnership between the two countries by the Supreme Council of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic:
- January 25, 2017 deputies of the Supreme Council of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic considered the question of ratification of the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Partnership between the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic and the Republic of South Ossetia.
Within three years the relevant diplomatic agencies of the two countries were working on its development. The first agreement was signed in 1994 by the President of South Ossetia Ludvig Chibirov and the Vice President of Transdniestria Alexander Karaman.
For South Ossetia, it was the first international treaty in the status of the unrecognized state.
For many years, on the basis of the document between the two countries was established a solid legal basis in the form of bilateral agreements.
There have been great changes in the life of the people of South Ossetia, it has become a recognized state; significant changes have taken place in Transnistria. This was the main factor to revise the previous treaty.
The new document is strategic for both countries and brings a new level of our relations. The 22 articles of the treaty contain all aspects of further progressive development of the fraternal peoples.
The diplomatic mission located in the city of Tiraspol, will celebrate its tenth anniversary in November 2017. And as always, the official representative office will do everything for the implementation of this important historical document.
We are grateful to the deputies of the Supreme Council of the VI convocation for the understanding and support of our relationship.
