Separatist leaders: We may impose visa regime on Chisinau

Separatist leader Igor Smirnov said during a recent meeting with Special Representative of the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Charalampos Christopoulos that Transnistria could impose a visa regime on Chisinau.

Mr. Smirnov noted that this policy would constitute retaliation for alleged confiscations by Moldovan border guards of Russian and Ukrainian passports held by Transnistrians trying to cross into the territory controlled by Chisinau. The Transnistrian leader says the border guards do so with anyone who does not have a residence permit to travel to Moldova.
