Delivering a message of hope...
A democracy activist delivers a letter to the OSCE office in Tiraspol, Pridnestrovie, in 2006. But despite having a full office staff inside, no one from the OSCE would answer the door or receive the letter in person.
In the letter, Pridnestrovie's youth expresses hope for the continued freedom and independence and calls upon the OSCE to respect the sovereignty and statehood of the young, democratic nation which declared its independence in 1990. The group's spokesperson declared:
" - Today, we are finding yet another door slammed shut in the face of the people. But look at Pridnestrovie objectively, and you will see that we have a fair and reasonable claim. There is no need to escalate conflict or refuse dialogue. Just listen to the voice of the Pridnestrovian people."
