In response to multi million dollar losses suffered as a result of border restrictions imposed by Ukraine, PMR is not just getting humanitarian aid from Russia ... UN, Europe and USA are also helping the young country cope with what it calls an economic blockade by forces opposed to its rights to independence. On April 3, Deputy Director of Department on Legal and Human Resources Policy of PMR's Ministry of Health and Social Protection Alexander Taras stated that the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (also known as Transnistria and as Transdniestria) continues to receive humanitarian aid from all over the world: ?In connection with Tiraspol??s appeal to help the republic in situation, arisen after establishing of blockade by Kishinev and Kiev, several European and American organizations gave a response, stressed Taras. As news agency REGNUM.ru reports, this information was published by the PMR Ministry of Information and local TV-communications. Alexander Taras explained that humanitarian goods got into Pridnestrovie from the UN Population Fund. Drugs and medications worth 97,000 leus were delivered to the young country's Republican Clinical Hospital. Dutch firm SDOK sent a large shipment of medicines, blankets, and other belongings to the PMR Mother and Child Center. And even more humanitarian aid is on its way from the American Health Union, which is going to be delivered to Pridnestrovie's Republican TB Dispensary within the next few days. Private groups are chipping in, too, in a strong show of solidarity for the Pridnestrovian people. For instance, civic community leaders from the Hesed and Halom Jewish culture centers in Tiraspol and Bendery report a generous flow of humanitarian aid shipments from their foreign compatriots. Pridnestrovie suffers from the imposition of unilateral trade restrictions by Ukraine, orchestrated by Moldova, which took effect on March 3. In the first month, the country's right to conduct sovereign economic activity has resulted in losses of more than than $75 million dollars. Nearly ten thousand workers has been left jobless as tragedy grips the formerly prosperous nation in the heartland of South East Europe. Pridnestrovie.net/Transnistria
