Moldovan Parliament Chairman Marian Lupu and Chairman of the
Transnistrian supreme soviet [parliament] Yevgeny Shevchuk will hold an
informal meeting in Brussels on May 14.
In the capital of
Belgium, they will partake in the EU-organized roundtable conference on
human trafficking prevention. Their informal meeting will be attended
by European Union Special Representative for Moldova Kalman Mizsei and
other EU officials.
On Tuesday, Marian Lupu left for Brussels
at the head of a Moldovan Parliament delegation, whose aim is to take
part in the roundtable and in “consolidating of the dialog with the
European Union to implement Moldova’s striving for European
integration”, as the Parliament’s Press Service wrote in its press
release.
For Yevgeny Shevchuk, this visit to Brussels is his
first overseas trip as a parliament speaker. Its has become possible
after the European Union had crossed his name from the list of top
Transnistria figures, to whom the doors to European Union Member States
had been shut for over 5 years since February 2003.
The
Brussels meeting of the two speakers will be the first such event on
the level of parliaments between Moldova and Transnistria since 2001.
