		Tension in Transdniestr, Moldova's separatist province on the border with Ukraine, is a constant thorn in the government's side.
		Transdniestr's boycott of talks in January 2003 was no exception, but seemed all the more discouraging as it came only weeks after the province's self-styled government had signed an agreement to negotiate a settlement based on a federal system drawn up in mid-2002.
		Russian troops and weapons stationed in Transdniestr since the Soviet period were originally due to be withdrawn by the end of 2002 under the terms of an agreement reached at the November 1999 OSCE summit in Istanbul and in compliance with the Moldovan constitution.

		Transdniestr heeft zichzelf onafhankelijk verklaard, heeft een eigen president, eigen geld en zelfs eigen grensposten.

		For the residents of Transdniestr this is like waving a red rag at a bull, and celebrations are usually boycotted by those living east of the Dniestr River.

		The Slavic minorities in Transdniestr are keen to retain their cultural and social ties with Russia, while in the south the Turkish-speaking Gagauz minority are worried about possible reunification with Romania.

		To defuse the situation, and in apparent capitulation of Moldova's economic blockade against Transdniestr, the Tiraspol authorites folded and finally permitted the Romanian school to be "registered".
		Although Transdniestr is run by a band of traffickers, it is still legal to do business with companies controlled by the separatist regime, companies that do not pay taxes to Chisinau but instead to Smirnov's treasury.
		Transdniestr truly is a "fl hole", where only a handful of Russian gangsters own a "government" that permits every vice known to humankind: drug trafficking, arms trafficking and manufacture and the especially heinous trafficking in children and women as sex slaves.

		Transdniestr (sometimes spelled Trans-Dniester in English) is a self-proclaimed independent country, although it is not recognized as such by any other nation.
		To put it bluntly, the west wants Transdniestr to do what Adjara did in 2004 (in Georgia), which is acquiesce to Moldovan central government, perhaps in the form of some lind of limited autonomy in a federation.
		Transdniestr cannot survive if they cannot export goods via Ukraine or Moldova and it seems extremely unlikely that they will acquiesce to Moldovan customs oversight as that would be political suicide for the Smirnov clan.

	Dave's Gallery :: TRANSDNIESTR, MOLDOVA + GERMANY (THIRD TIME)
		Although it is a self-declared republic, Moldova has not recognized the declaration of independence, and in fact has sent troops in, with a cease-fire entered in 1992.
		There are still tensions between Transdniestr and Romanian-speaking Moldova, and I was not sure that I would be allowed in with a Moldovan visa (Transdniestr does not issue visas), even though the Moldovan embassy official in Kyiv assured me that it would not be a problem.
		It is a really tiny country, and I think I only spent a little over thirty kilometers in Transdniestr (with one flat tire to boot), on bumpy roads through some barren countryside.

	Sirman's Report on Chisinau & Moldova, Transdniestr, Gagauzia. 2005
		In early 1990s, the Slavic minority to the east, with Russian support, declared itself an independent republic named Transdniestr with its capital in Tighina, and a second, mostly Turkic-speaking minority did the same under the name Gagauzia, both minorities in fear that Moldova would eventually join Romania.
		BEWARE: Moldova is having serious problems with this province and so one guard on the Moldovan side was displeased that I wanted to visit there that he wanted to give me an exit stamp; another guard asked me how long I would stay in Tighina.
		To reach the buses going to Tighina and/or Tiraspol in Transdniestr, enter the bus station from this side and get off from the exit across, to your left (Gates 13+) you will see the buses, for 18 Lei.

		The European Union is keen to see the dispute between Moldova and Transdniestr resolved, as Romania's accession to the bloc, scheduled for 2007, would bring the simmering separatist conflict to its borders.

		The Transdniestr is kept afloat by Russian subsidies and illicit earnings from illegal trade in arms and other commodities.

		He also made an unexpected statement: the US is offering its assistance in the peaceful regulation of the Transdniestr conflict without specifying what kind of assistance: diplomatic, peacekeeping or occupational.
		Firstly, there is the problem of a lack trust and suspicion of the population and government of the Transdniestr region towards outsiders.
		A new peacekeeping contingent is unlikely to change the situation for the better, but the presence of foreign troops may provoke the Slavs of the Transdniestr to renew the armed conflict.
