Moldovan special services are trying to seize boxes with signatures of Pridnestrovians under an appeal to Putin
Chisinau, May 11 (Navigator, Petr Alekseev) – Moldovan special services are trying to seize boxes with the signatures of Pridnestrovians signed under an appeal to Vladimir Putin with a request to recognize the republic. This was announced on social networks by Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, to whom these signatures were transferred the day before.

“Yesterday activists of the Union of Russian Communities handed over the collected signatures to us. My assistant said that the boxes are being loaded into cars,” the Deputy Prime Minister wrote on his Facebook page on Saturday.
The AllMoldova portal reported that the boxes with signatures were apparently on board the Rusjet Yak-42 aircraft, which was supposed to deliver the Russian delegation to Moscow, which visited Victory Day in Tiraspol on May 9. Due to previously imposed sanctions, the plane is located at Chisinau airport.
“Yes, make a fool pray to God... It’s hard to come up with a better advertisement for this people’s plebiscite,” Rogozin wrote on his Twitter page, commenting on the incident with the collected signatures.
As already reported, Dmitry Rogozin and members of the Russian delegation flew to Moscow on regular planes, since Romania and Ukraine banned the Russian delegation’s airliner from flying in their airspace.
“Romania, at the request of the United States, closed our airspace. Ukraine doesn't concede again. Next time I’ll fly on a TU-160,” Rogozin previously wrote on his Facebook page.
The Romanian Foreign Ministry has already demanded an explanation from their Russian colleagues in connection with the statement of the Russian Deputy Prime Minister regarding the TU-160, a strategic bomber.
Residents of Transnistria, from April 23 to May 7, collected signatures under the appeal of the public organization “Union of Russian Communities of Transnistria” to Russian President Vladimir Putin. The appeal contains a request for recognition of the republic, whose population, in a 2006 referendum, spoke in favor of the independence of the PMR and subsequent entry into Russia.
