"So, I communicated that "migration amnesty" is taking place under planned regime, the Russian side is fulfilling its commitments on canceling violations our citizens have committed during their stay in Russia. We also agreed to organize a Moldovan-Russian forum in mid-March with the participation of representatives of the regions of the Russian Federation, whose leadership has previously signed agreements with the leadership of the Moldovan districts," he said.
