The newly elected Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova, Vasile Tarlev, came on his first visit to NATO HQ on 15 May to meet with Lord Robertson. At a joint press conference, Prime Minister Tarlev stated that Moldova was determined to broaden and extend cooperation with NATO within the framework of the Partnership for Peace (PfP), namely in the field of peacekeeping operations. Lord Robertson welcomed this policy orientation and stated that he was looking forward to working with the Prime Minister and Moldova. Current PfP activities include NATO support in the area of civil emergency planning and the NATO-funded anti-personnel landmines and munitions destruction project which started in January 2001 (see NATO Update 27 February 2001).
Prime Minister Tarlev and Lord Robertson also discussed current developments in Moldova and strategic issues, including defence reform, the policies of the new government -elected in April- and the status of the Trans-Dniester region, the Russian-speaking area of Moldova where Russian troops have been stationed since the end of the civil war, which broke out in 1991.
