Russia is not ready to recognize Transnistria's independence, as the conflict can only be resolved by mutual consent of Chisinau and Tiraspol, head of the State Duma committee on the CIS affairs and relations with Russians living abroad Alexei Ostrovsky told Transnistria's President Igor Smirnov. At the meeting, the two parties handled social and economic cooperation between Transnistria and Russia as well as ways to settle the conflict with Moldova.

Ostrovsky said that although Russia was aware that 96 percent of the population of Transnistria had voted in favor of sovereignty and independence, other countries, the US and EU included, were not yet inclined to recognize it as an independent country. He noted that Moscow was very concerned about Transnistria's unresolved status and the conditions the people have been forced to live in there.
