This report was a positive one and is sincerely presented with the purpose of identifying drawbacks.\u201d At the meeting, Stepaniuc mentioned many times the seven children illegally taken to Italy and those illegally taken to Romania \u201cin the context of the well-known practice of fake contracts studies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When he was asked who the authority in charge of solving the case was and when it is going to happen, \u201cin one year, in three or in 100 years,\u201d the audience went quiet for a couple of minutes. After that, minister Valentin Mejinschi posed the question to the General Prosecutor\u2019s Office and to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration. The Prosecutor\u2019s Office promised on the spot that it will undertake all the necessary measures.<\/p>\n<p>An IMO expert wanted to specify during the meeting that there was confusion between human trafficking and illegal migration. Stepaniuc made it clear that he valued the IMO support for Moldova but \u201cat this moment you must really help us in bringing these children home because you are more competent and know better how things are.\u201d<\/p>\n<dl><\/dl>\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\">The texts from the page www.zdg.md are taken over within the maximum limit of <strong>1,000 <\/strong>characters.
