TIRASPOL. Dec 22 (Interfax) - Russia and Transdniestria may continue the practice of conducting joint military exercises, the new president of the Moldovan Republic of Transdniestria, Vadim Krasnoselsky, said.
"I don't see any problem. This is normal military team training of both the Russian component and the Transdniestrian armed forces," he told reporters when asked whether the practice of holding joint Transdniestrian-Russian military exercises started in 2016 would continue.
