Ukraine and the United States shall redouble efforts aimed at Transnistrian conflict settlement through negotiations in the format of 5+2, says the joint statement they issued upon completion in Kiev of the second meeting of the Ukraine-U.S. Commission for Strategic Partnership.

The meeting was chaired by Ukrainian Minister of Foreign Affairs Constantin Grishenko and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the Ukrainian mass media reported.

The parties have agreed to expand cooperation on issues presenting a priority importance for both, and have decided to form three new groups within the Commission – on peaceful atomic energy, on political dialog and superiority of the law, and on science and technology.

According to unconfirmed information, last week the Ukrainian capital city was visited by unchangeable Transnistria leader Igor Smirnov, who is on official annual leave presently. According to Zerkalo Nedeli [Mirror of the Week] newspaper of Kiev, Smirnov had a meeting with minister Constantin Grishenko.

The newspaper wrote in this connection that despite the Transnistrian leadership’s sweet expectations from Victor Yanukovitch’s presidential election victory, the official Kiev did not rush towards Smirnov with open arms. No wander: the new president has many a time stated that Ukraine stands for a soonest-possible settlement of the frozen conflict exclusively on the principle of the territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova.

According to the publication, “The Tiraspol leader’s coming to Ukraine is not only an indication that the Transnistria question is topical for the current Ukrainian leadership. It is also a reminding that Kiev continues to hold in its hands confidently at least one key to Transnistrian settlement”.
