Transnistria (Pridnestrovie) |

Transnistria
(also called Trans-Dniestr or Transdniestria) is a breakaway territory
located mostly on a strip of land between the River Dniester and the eastern
Moldovan border with Ukraine. The Pridnestrovskaia Moldavskaia Respublica (PMR,
also known as Pridnestrovie) was formed in 1990, even before the separation
of Moldavia from Russia. After the War of Transnistria in 1992,
Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic got limited recognition, which claims the
territory to the east of the River Dniester, the city of Bender and its
surrounding localities located on the west bank. The Republic of Moldova
does not recognise PMR and considers Transnistria part of Moldova's
autonomous region of Stînga Nistrului ("Left Bank of the Dniester"). It has
an area of 11,544 sq. mi. (29,900 sq. km).
Capital: Tiraspol [Moldavian ASSR: Balta
1924-1929; Tiraspol 1929-1940; Odessa 1941-44]. |
The area was
conquered from the Turks in the last half of the 18th century, and in 1792
the capital city of Bessarabia (present Moldova and part of the Ukraine)
became part of the Russian Empire. During the Russian Revolution, in 1918,
the area was taken by Romanian troops, and in 1924 the Moldavian Autonomous
SSR was formed on the left bank of the Dniester River. On June 22, 1941,
Romania declared war on the U.S.S.R. and Romanian troops fought alongside
the Germans up to Stalingrad. A Romanian occupation area between the
Dniester and Bug Rivers called Transnistria was established in October 1941.
Its center was the port of Odessa. Once the Moldavian SSR declared
independence in August 1991, Transnistria did not want to be part of
Moldavia. In 1992, Moldova tried to solve the issue militarily with battles
in Bendery and Doubossary. The conflict was ended with Russian mediation and
Russian peacekeeping forces were stationed there. |

Territorial
Disputes: After the dissolution of the USSR,
tensions between the Moldovan government and the breakaway unrecognized
state's authorities in Tiraspol escalated into a military conflict that
started in March 1992 and was concluded by a ceasefire in July 1992. As part
of that agreement, a three-party (Russia, Moldova, Transnistria) Joint
Control Commission supervises the security arrangements in the demilitarized
zone, comprising 20 localities on both sides of the river. Although the
ceasefire has held, the territory's political status remains unresolved:
while internationally unrecognized, Transnistria is, in effect, an
independent state organized as a presidential republic, with its own
government, parliament, military, police, postal system, and currency. Its
authorities have adopted a constitution, flag, national anthem, and a coat
of arms. However, following a 2005 agreement between Moldova and Ukraine,
all Transnistrian companies seeking to export goods through the Ukrainian
border must be registered with the Moldovan authorities. |
This
agreement was implemented after the European Union Border Assistance Mission
to Moldova and Ukraine (EUBAM) started its activity in 2005. Most Transnistrians also
have Moldovan citizenship, but there are also many Transnistrians with
Russian and Ukrainian citizenship. Transnistria is sometimes compared with
other post-Soviet frozen conflict zones such as Nagorno-Karabakh, Abkhazia,
and South Ossetia. These four unrecognized states maintain friendly
relations with each other and form the Community for Democracy and Rights of
Nations. |
