Ukrainian authorities invite Moldovan Speaker and interim President Ghimpu to Kiev as the two countries try to mend ties

According to a press release from the Moldovan Parliament, Speaker and interim President Mihai Ghimpu recently met with Ukrainian Ambassador to Chisinau Sergei Pirojkov to talk about “aspects regarding bilateral cooperation relations.”

On behalf of Ukrainian Speaker Vladimir Litvin, Mr. Pirojkov invited Mr. Ghimpu to officially visit Ukraine. The release added that “the officials spoke about their common objectives, like European integration and the resolution of the Transnistrian conflict. Furthermore, the importance of mutual support in the process of European integration and the democratic aspirations of both Moldova and Ukraine were mentioned.”

The ruling Alliance for European Integration has often said that it would like to improve ties with Ukraine after nearly a decade of rather a rocky relationship.
