Igor Dodon wrote on his Facebook page afterwards: "For the main question, we discussed the current situation of the Transnistrian conflict settlement process, in particular measures to consolidate trust between the sides. We expressed a common point of view that all the negotiation parties should continue joint steps to promote the realization of accords achieved earlier".
