Oleg Ozerov, the ambassador of Russia in Moldova, has the status of "agreed but unaccredited", having limited duties, according to Minister Mihai Popșoi.

Oleg Ozerov, the ambassador of Russia to the Republic of Moldova, is currently in a situation of being "agreed but unaccredited," stated Foreign Minister Mihai Popșoi. He emphasized that Ozerov behaves as if he were accredited, but his limited status restricts his mandate.

Popșoi highlighted the complexity of bilateral relations between Moldova and Russia, mentioning that the country respects international norms and that the current situation is influenced by Russia's actions in Ukraine. Ozerov, an experienced diplomat, was proposed and agreed upon by Moldova in 2025, but he has not been officially accredited, which limits his diplomatic duties. The Republic of Moldova continues to promote a balanced foreign policy, focused on respecting sovereignty and solidarity with states that defend peace.
