The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe's conference in Ljubljana, ended on 6 December without a formal declaration, primarily due to Russian objections to a statement in the draft calling on it to pull its troops out of the breakaway Transdniester region.
Moldovan Foreign Minister Andrei Stratan said on 7 December that Russian troops in Transdniester do not have legal status and the military presence is thus "a violation of the basic principles of international law," Flux reported the same day.
