    /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Transniestria stands against the replacement
    of Russian peacekeepers by the troops of GUAM member states, said
    chairman of the Transniestrian Supreme Council Yevgeny Shevchuk.

    During 14 years joint Russian, Moldavian and Transniestrian
    peacekeeping forces secure peace in the region. No burst of violence
    was fixed and no one was killed in the course of these years. We
    consider that change of the format can destabilize the situation,"
    the Speaker said. "Deployment of GUAM's blue helmets aimed at exerting
    pressure on Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Transniestria will not be
    exercised," Shevchuk underscored.

    Late September 2006 in New York the FMs of the GUAM member states
    (Georgia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Moldova) discussed the possibility of
    replacing Russian peacekeepers by GUAM's civil and police forces in
    Abkhazia and South Ossetia, reports ITAR-TASS.

    Abkhazia also stands against GUAM's peacekeepers.

    Chairman of the Abkhazian committee on defense and national security
    Garry Samanba said Abkhazia will never agree on withdrawal of the
    CIS Collective Forces from the territory of the republic. In case
    the forces are withdrawn Abkhazia is ready to host joint Abkhazian,
    Transniestrian and South Ossetian peacekeepers, he added.
