On 22 July 2026, Vitalii Ignatiev, the Transnistrian political representative, turned down a Moldovan vice‑premier’s invitation to a “1+1” meeting in Chișinău, citing “security reasons.” Valeriu Chiveri, Moldova’s vice‑premier for Reintegration, said the claim was unfounded and offered alternative venues on the left‑bank for future talks.

A week later, on 29 July 2026, Chiveri accused Transnistrian authorities of obstructing the renewal of the direct “1+1” negotiations, describing their responses as evasive or outright negative. He reiterated the agenda—human‑rights issues, farmers’ concerns, VAT application, and the proposed Convergence Fund. While Moldovan officials portrayed the fund as a multi‑billion‑lei program to finance infrastructure, education, and social support, Transnistrian media framed it as a propaganda scheme that would seize regional money and harm the economy.
