I fully support Ukraine and Moldova in the EU but neither of them are ready to start any form of talks yet. They have immense systemic problems they need to resolve not to mention geopolitical issues like Transdnistria and Ukraine being invaded.
"Moldova has two options. The first is to convince Transnistrians that it is better in Europe and join with the rest of the country. Or - give up Transnistria... Transnistria is not Moldova's historical territory, it was 'granted' by an administrative decision..."
Giving up transinistria would be the easiest and safest long term most probably. But I understand psychologically giving away part of the country is really hard and I won't go to people and tell them what they need to do. But annexing them back would be scary as yet another Russian speaking population Russia will use to influence elections and all that.
It’s not that easy to ‘just give up’ on transnistria because russia made sure the region has key industries. For RM it’s not only a political issue, but also an economic one which makes the dilemma more complicated than it looks.
I understand but I must ask. They really don't control anything from transinistria at the moment do they? It's entirely independent. So how can key industries be located there.
