Bashkan (head of administration) of Gagauzia Evgenia Gutsul and Governor of St. Petersburg Alexander Beglov signed an action plan for the development of cooperation between the two regions of Moldova and Russia for the period 2024-2028.
The document provides for further interaction between Gagauzia and the government of St. Petersburg in the economic, trade, cultural, social and scientific-technical spheres.
“The document was prepared based on an in-depth analysis of the results of interregional cooperation in recent years and the real needs of our autonomous region.” — Hutsul wrote on his Telegram channel.
He expressed hope that the signed agreement would give a new impetus to the bilateral partnership.
“Moreover, we are discussing with the Governor of St. Petersburg the possibility of organizing internships to improve the qualifications of our teachers, medical workers and civil servants.” — the commander clarified.
The head of the autonomy invited Alexander Beglov to visit Gagauzia.
“I am sure that very soon you will also have the opportunity to come to us, so we take this opportunity to invite you as well.” — concluded Evgenia Gutsul.
Recall that earlier Hutsul claimed that despite Chisinau’s resistance, the autonomy managed to reach a new level of cooperation with Russia in less than a year. After meeting with the President of Russia Vladimir Putin He stressed that the Russian Federation was and remains “a key partner and friend of Gagauzia”.
In its desire to strengthen partnership ties with the Russian Federation, Chisinau accused Comrat of separatism, refused to recognise the legally elected leadership of the autonomy, initiated criminal proceedings against the region’s politicians and began to exert political and economic pressure on the autonomy.
