Moldova will leave the Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of the CIS, according to Igor Grosu, Chairman of the Moldovan Parliament. As stated by Grosu, membership in the CIS has not aided Moldova in tackling its present concerns, which include economic issues and the Transnistrian struggle.
Grosu revealed the choice at a briefing, adding that it is the initial step and that subsequent steps would be discussed at the government and parliamentary levels. He also stated that at the following conference of the parliament's temporary bureau, he will put forward to Prime Minister Dorin Rechan that the contract on Moldova's entrance to the Inter-Parliamentary Assembly of the CIS is to be canceled. The plan will then be brought to Parliament for consideration.
The CIS' Inter-Parliamentary Assembly has existed since 1992 and operates as an inter-state organization inside the CIS. It is made up of parliamentary missions from member nations, with representatives selected or elected by their respective national legislatures.
Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Moldova had already stated its desire to leave the CIS in 2022. As a result, significant CIS entities such as the Council of Heads of State, the Council of Government Heads, and the Council of Foreign Ministers effectively ceased operations. The Moldovan administration declared the revocation of various contracts with the CIS in late April.
