President Vladimir Putin revoked on Tuesday a 2012 decree that in part underpinned Moldova’s sovereignty in resolving the future of the Transnistria region – a Moscow-backed separatist region that borders Ukraine and where Russia keeps troops, according to Reuter.
The decree, which included a Moldova component, outlined Russia’s foreign policy 11 years ago which assumed Moscow’s closer relations with the European Union and the United States.
The order revoking the 2012 document was published on the Kremlin’s website and states that the decision was taken to “ensure the national interests of Russia in connection with the profound changes taking place in international relations”.
It is part of a series of anti-Western moves announced by Putin on Tuesday. Alexandru Flenchea, Moldovan chairman of the joint control commission in the security zone around Transnistria, said the cancellation did not mean that Putin was abandoning the notion of Moldovan sovereignty.
In the same day, the new Moldovan Prime Minister Dorin Recean told reporters that troops and weapons “illegally”present in Transnistria need to be evacuated to Russia as part of a “peaceful resolution” of the Ukraine conflict.
On the eve of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, roughly three-quarters of UN member states endorsed a resolution calling for “just and lasting” peace. China and India were among the major abstentions.
