What happens here? Is it really like the USSR never ended for these people? There isn't much online about Transnistria so I would be great to learn more about it.
Also about Moldova in general too. Wikipedia says they have the same GPD as Pakistan Why are they so poor? If they speak Romanian why don't they join Romania?

It's a hellhole created by evil Russians to retake the control of arms factories >If they speak Romanian why don't they join Romania? Geopolitics doesn't work in that way
Charles Harris
I wonder if they realise the soviet union doesn't exist anymore
Evan Gray
They are a bunch of brainwashed Romanians mixed with Russians speaking "moldovan" and Russian languages both in Cyrillic alphabet.
Luis Cooper
How does the country continue to exist? Do all their commi cadres need to die of oldage until they blanda up with moldova again?
They should have cellphone internet by now.
Henry Collins
It's the whitest nation in Europe. The only nonwhite population is a few gypsies and some Filipinos who work at the hotels because they can speak English to foreigners.
Connor Lopez
>both in Cyrillic alphabet. Wait, I thought Moldovans replaced their writing system with Latin.
Anthony Edwards
Anyway their Russiabooing seems retarded. I think that probably more than every second Russian can't even point Transnistria on a map.
Wyatt Thomas
In Moldova yes, but not in Transnistria!
Nicholas Rogers
What do Romanians think about Moldovans? Do you wanna take their clay back?
Nolan Roberts
Is Transnistria basically an USSR themed memekingdom of an oligarch or more who managed to stay on top after gommunism collapsed?
Jaxon Ward
KGB engineered part of the republic that can be flipped to secede in case Russia's losing the territory. They really engineered all ex-soviet republics in a way that makes it hard for them to wobble away completely from Russian dependence.
Jace Cooper
What's the point though? Russia doesn't even share a border with Transnistria or Moldova
Jace Foster
They practically did before Ukraine switched sides. Also, you don't need land borders to have a client state.
Liam Rivera
So they engineered it before the Ukrainians broke off? Interesting
Joshua Cox
Well, yes, I said KGB engineered. They engineered it as far back as Stalin's rule when he was moving around ethnicities all over the ussr.
Liam Morgan
We have almost half million moldovans here and they all say that their country is shit and frozen in the 80s
Ayden Reyes
Transnistria is more Ukrainian and Russian iirc which is why it wants to break away from Moldova.
Moldova was part of Romania that was founded by nobles and ended up becoming part of the Russian Empire and then Soviet Union. Moldova is poor mostly because of its communist history and also corruption.
Josiah Cook
Hahahaha this retarded cuckhole. Go back to ukraine you fucking slave retard

But I'm no- You know what? You're right.
Charles Morgan
It's a Soviet open-air museum with Russian Army stationed there.
Fucking bizarre.
Adrian Allen
Are you denying that Russia is using frozen conflicts to manipulate its former satellites?
You're a fucking retard if you think that Russia is anti-imperialist.
Jack Morales
Transnistria is a blackmail province set up by Russians to manipulate Moldova.. They are the inspiration for the Donetsk and Luhansk people's republics are to Ukraine.
>If they speak Romanian why don't they join Romania? Manipulation of old people indoctrinated people by the communists/socialists
>Wikipedia says they have the same GPD as Pakistan Why are they so poor? They were never industrialized since they are Romanians not Russians.
Samuel Bennett
If you would have given eastern Moldova back in the 90's you would have had a ally in us since our economies were tied together and our cultures are similar...however you went full retard.

Many of you say that Pan-Slavism is codeword for Russian imperialism. That is wrong. How do you think Slavs would unite, other than from initiative, even from military intervention of strongest Slavic state, which has enough strength to resist whole world which is restricting us from uniting?! Should Macedonia, or maybe Montenegro lead this process in your opinion? No. Russia is immense in every way imaginable. Its hands are reaching everywhere. But for its size, this majestic Bear is attacked by pack of hyenas. Russia needs us to remain, and we need Russia to unite, to grow together. Just like Dostojevski said it; small Slavic nations will condemn Russia and strive towards Europe, but Russia will not evil-remember this, and rather forgive, when finally we all make Slavic Union. (You can read more in his "Writer's diaries") SLAVS, RUSSIA IS NOT YOUR ENEMY
