MOLDOVA'S FUTURE DEPENDS ON RESULTS OF 
NEGOTIATIONS WITH IMF

Chisinau, July 19 /Moldpres/ - US ambassador to Moldova
Rudolf Perina said within the Wednesday National Press Club that
the IMF mission's visit scheduled for the close of this mouth is
very important for Moldova's future.

Rudolf Perina considers that within the negotiations with
the IMF representatives Moldova might reach an agreement, thereby
obtaining a rescheduling of the foreign debts. The ambassador
pointed out that Moldova's future depends on the results of the
negotiations with the IMF.

At the same time, the US diplomat expressed hope that the
Moldovan Parliament will support the Government in its intentions
to re-establish the relations with the IMF.

Moldova's foreign debt reaches over USD 1.9 billion. In the
ongoing year, the Government has to pay off USD 50 mln, of which
USD 7 mln till the end of August. In 2002, Moldova will have to
repay foreign debts amounting to USD 178 mln, which means more
than a half of the country's annual budget.


VIITORUL MOLDOVEI DEPINDE DE REZULTATELE 
NEGOCIERILOR CU FMI

Chisinau, 19 iulie /MOLDPRES/. Vizita misiunii FMI, preconizata
pentru sfarsitul lunii curente, este foarte importanta pentru
viitorul Republicii Moldova, a declarat miercuri seara Rudolf
Perina, ambasadorul SUA la Chisinau, in cadrul clubului
national de presa, transmite MOLDPRES.

Rudolf Perina considera ca in cadrul negocierilor cu
reprezentantii FMI, Republica Moldova ar putea ajunge
la o intelegere, obtinand o reesalonare a datoriilor externe.
Viitorul Republicii Moldova depinde de rezultatele
negocierilor cu FMI, a spus Perina.

In acelasi timp, diplomatul american si-a exprimat speranta ca
Parlamentul RM va sustine Guvernul in intentiile sale de a
restabili relatiile cu Fondul Monetar International.

Datoriile externe ale Moldovei constituie peste 1,9 miliarde
dolari. In anul curent Guvernul trebuie sa achite circa 50 mln
dolari, dintre care 7 mln pana la sfarsitul lunii august.
In 2002 Moldova va avea de rambursat datorii externe in
valoare de 178 mln dolari, ceea ce constituie peste jumatate
din bugetul anual al tarii.
