Moldova makes progress in preventing, combating human trafficking
Moldova has made outstanding progress in the prevention and combating of the human trafficking, and I am sure that we will manage to defeat this vice as a result of cooperation.
US Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador to Moldova Asif J. Chaudhry made this statement within an action of donating two vehicles worth 35,000 dollars to a specialised department of the Prosecutor General's Office (PG).
The American diplomat said that this donation is part of the US Government's efforts to support the Moldovan executive to combat the trafficking of people. The US embassy in Chisinau in concert with the Interior Ministry's (MAI) Centre for Combating the Human Trafficking (CCTP) committed to restore the office for the prosecutors' department at the Centre, as well as to set a secure IT system, so as to allow the concerned subdivision connecting to the PG's departmental database.
During the event, Prosecutor General Valeriu Zubco said that the donation will contribute to strengthening the capacities of the department's prosecutors while foiling the offences dealing with the human trafficking, as well as to protecting the victims' freedoms and rights.
The assistance is provided within an agreement signed in September 2005. The agreement completes an Accord Letter between the Moldovan and US Governments on Drugs' Controls and Laws' Enforcement, signed on 28 August 2001.
The additional agreement sees a 1-9-million-dollar financing for assistance to combat the trafficking of people, including the restoration of the CCTP's offices, training, equipment, assistance in terms of witnesses' protection, etc.
