Several activists and supporters of the National Bolsheviks Party picketed the OSCE Mission Office in Chisinau last Saturday "in protest against the impertinent and non-constructive interference of the OSCE and other Euro-Atlantic structures and some Western countries into Transnistrian conflict settlement".

The protesters cried out slogans like "OSCE out of Moldova!", "OSCE is NATO's fag", "No to Russian troop withdrawal!" The National Bolsheviks believe the OSCE has become outdated, and has developed into a useless and even detrimental international institution that upset peaceful settlement in the Republic of Moldova.

They are against deploying international peacekeeper forces here, which they believe will mean an occupation of Moldova by NATO troops. The Bolsheviks demand to immediately stop removing Russian troops from Transnistria - "the only force able to ensure stability and security for both Nistru banks".
