Georgian partner has savings from translation 600Euro, and he would like to spend them for the round table ​in​ ​Tbilisi,​ ​with​ ​mass​ ​media​ ​and​ ​stakeholders.​ 2. Georgian partner would like to change the format of the Guideline from A5 to A4, with proportional changes ​of​ ​volume​ ​of​ ​the​ ​material.​ 3. Ukrainian part - we have savings from vehicle needs in Georgia. Instead of 300Euro we have spent 100 Euro for the vehicle. We would like for this money to print more guidelines (not 300 items, but 500 items) 4. Georgian partner convinced us about inefficiency of training in Poti, so we changed it to Kutaisi. We have already arranged the training on 16th of August in Kutaisi. Also according to the project plan we have already arranged training in Batumi on 18th of August. The last city in Georgia is Tbilisi which we plan for the September. As Ukrainian partner I have no budget to visit Georgia twice (in August and September). ​So​ ​Georgian​ ​partners​ ​arranged​ ​training​ ​in​ ​Tbilisi​ ​by​ ​themselves​ ​in​ ​September.​ 5. Project partner from Moldova made changes in budget - transfer of money which was needed to print guidelines - instead of guidelines print 4000 posters. They had had a discussion with Chisinau Mayoralty, who asked to print more posters as they were starting to set up a new system of separate collection of solid municipal waste and would like to inform the population on the changes in the system ​of​ ​collecting​ ​waste.​ 6. In Ukraine, project supposed arrangement of trainings in Zhytomyr city, but after month of negotiation, Zhytomyr City didn’t approve it to us, that is why we had to change the city from Zhytomyr to Ivano-Frankivsk and because of loosing the time for the negotiation, the end of the project implementation was 4th November instead of 30th October. All changes were approved by the Secretariat ​of​ ​CSF​ ​EaP.​ 2. ​Project​ ​Activities​ ​and​ ​Outputs​ :​ № Date of Type of Participants involved, Deliverables, ​Outputs​ Partner activity activity

  • 1 Country Visit: MOLDOVA Report of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chair-In-Office on Combating Anti-Semitism Rabbi
    CIO.GAL/162/17 29 August 2017 ENGLISH only Country Visit: MOLDOVA Report of the Personal Representative of the OSCE Chair-in-Office on Combating Anti-Semitism Rabbi Andrew Baker February 28-March 4, 2017 Introductory Acknowledgments I want to thank the Government of Moldova for its exceptional cooperation and positive response to my request for meetings with officials at the highest levels. The ability to take up the issues of my mandate including topics of some controversy with them in direct conversation has made for a better understanding of the current situation and appreciation of their respective efforts. I am also especially grateful to Ambassador Michael Scanlan and his staff at the OSCE Mission to Moldova for their invaluable assistance in both the organization of my visit and in briefing me prior to my arrival in Chisinau and throughout my stay. I believe Ambassador Scanlan’s knowledge and guidance helped me to ask the right questions and look critically at the answers I received. ODIHR has worked closely with civil society partners in Moldova and helped prepare the ground for this visit. I am especially indebted to Jan Fahlbusch for his advice and involvement. A View from the Jewish Community By its own estimate the Jewish Community of Moldova numbers about 15,000. The community operates a Jewish library, two general Jewish schools and three synagogues, and it is nearly unique in having a unified presence on both banks of the Dniester. It is an aging community, with half its members older than 50, due in some measure to the steady rate of emigration.

  • The Republic of Moldova in the Framework of the Eastern Partnership and Prospects for Relations with the Russian Federation
    Analele Universităţii din Oradea, Seria Relaţii Internaţionale şi Studii Europene, TOM X, pag. 143-169 THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA IN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE EASTERN PARTNERSHIP AND PROSPECTS FOR RELATIONS WITH THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION Victoria GOREAINOV* Mircea BRIE** Abstract. This paper is an in-depth analysis of the role of the Republic of Moldova in the Eastern Partnership and its influence on relations with the Russian Federation. The analysis of the role of the Republic of Moldova in the Eastern Partnership and the prospects for relations with the Russian Federation are necessary, given that the interests of the European Union and Russia intersect in Eastern Europe, and Moldova has been in the past 10 years between East and West. In the situation created Moldova finds itself between two regional powers – the EU and Russia. The European Union, as well as the Russian Federation, are major partners for the Republic of Moldova, and the orientation to the east or west often depends on political desire. The Republic of Moldova is one of the countries in Eastern Europe where Russia, by various methods, tries to maintain its influence, directing all forces against the EU enlargement to the East. In the context of the Republic of Moldova’s rapprochement with the EU, the main geostrategic interest of the Russian Federation is to maintain control over the former Soviet republics. And in order to maintain its status of great power, Russia needs to maintain its influence, including its military presence in Moldova, as a tool for exerting political pressure. However, the current reality, namely that the draft resolution proposed by the Republic of Moldova on “The complete and unconditional withdrawal of foreign military forces on the territory of the Republic of Moldova” was adopted at the UN General Assembly on June 22, 2018, questions the continuation of the presence Russian military in the Transnistrian region.
