Is Transnistria a real country?  

Unrecognized gang recognize eachother

“We partially recognized countries gotta take care of each other.”

Still has Soviet statues all over the place. it's like a time capsule.

"I identy myself as an independent country" - transistria

“Moldova breaks off from Romania due to soviets” “later has transistiana break off due to soviets”

As a Moldovan , I will add that historically it was never a part of Moldova , it was taken from Ukraine by the Soviet government in exchange for some other Moldovan territory like our coastline, which were given to Ukraine.

Would like to visit Transnistria and Moldova sometime, Greetings from Finland!

landlocked chile, funny

Russia: i will fight for transistria! transistria: are you rocognize me? Russia: no😐

As a Romanian, we (Romanians, which Moldovans are) have never controlled the territory of Transnistria (Only in WW2) and I say it is independent and if Moldova ever unites with us Transnistria needs to be excluded

If it's eastern then it's not valid If it's western there's no question about it

This piece is so inadequate to be completely misleading. Transnistria previous to 1918 had been part of Odessa Oblast since 1700, and when the Russian Empire ended, this territory was briefly part of the Ukraine People's Republic until 1923 when it was separated out as M.A.S.S.R (Moldova Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic) which after the Russians regained Moldova after World War II was joined with that (Moldova was called Bessarabia previously) it was joined with Moldova to make Moldova S. S. R. Transnistria has been Russian since 1700 and they speak Russian, not Romanian as Moldova does. Everyone from that area, generally, understand this situation.

Transnistria’s case is quite complicated; on one hand you can’t just break away from a country but on the other hand it broke away when independence was basically up for grabs in Eastern Europe.

Fun fact: moldova got its independance in august 21 1991 and transnistria got its independance in august 20 1991

Transnistria: I want to be the thinnest country! Chile, Laos: Challenge accepted. Gambia: Amateurs.

You did not mention the 20,000 tons of Soviet ammunition currently in the area

Transnistria is a country. I am from Moldova, in my opinion we should stop paying bills instead of Transnistria. Let's see how they will survive without us. And we can finally join the EU.

And I'm I'm going to guess that Ukraine is really regretting sending those volunteers over to help a breakaway region.

When your only recognize by your unrecognized friends that's just sad😅😂😂💔

Self determination is not taken seriously on the international stage

Sounds like trasnistria is more of a country than Taiwan

Transnistria lack recognition but it function completely as a independent nation, similar to Somaliland. it have it own government, military, police force, laws, social system, define territory and currency.

Why is all the barely recognised countries recognising each other kinda wholesome

Ey my state had a shout out! Go Delaware!

Basically A The Gambia Strip 2.0

Moldova attacked Transnistria? What a sick joke... Attacked with what, 3 old Kalashnikovs? Don't make it look like we bombed them, we don't even have/had an air force. Don't even get me started on the fact that Russia's 14th army (it's largest army) was just casually staying there, in a very convenient manner on the transnistrian territory. Stop spreading misinformation

Saying Moldova "invaded" is bullshit. I have a Russian friend who told me that his grandmother was moved to Transnistria by the Soviet government to bring up the population of Russians. This was and is Moldovan/Romanian territory. Russia invaded Moldova through Transnistria the same way it did with Luhansk and Donetsk to Ukraine.

Great vid bro

Fun fact : Transnistria is not communist country

My family is from there and people from there call it prednestrovia not Transnistria

It's kind of bs because they literally declared independence, fought for it, won it, and then everyone acts like it never happened

rare instance of Ukraine and Russia agreeing

It's actually called Pridnestrovlye

Actually they did want to join Ukraine for some time and initially held talks with the first Ukrainian President to do so, but it didn't go anywhere partially because Ukraine wasn't in an economic or diplomatic position to be annexing territories. You also forgot to mention how the "volunteers" we're directly supported and trained by Russian troops, and those Russian troops eventually became directly involved in the conflict on the Transnistrian side. Thus Russia forced Moldova into signing the ceasefire, and the "peacekeepers" (which for the record are not UN peacekeepers, Russia loves sending troops somewhere and calling them peacekeepers to legitimize its interventions) are effectively a way for Russia to guarantee that Transnistria, whose government it effectively controls, stays within the Russian sphere. The Russians also promised to remove their giant ammo stockpile located on a Russian base there, however haven't done so because it's Russia, and Russia never keeps its word and doesn't understand diplomacy. The fact that you glossed over all these facts and made it look like Russia had nothing to do with the conflict except sending some amount of volunteers says a lot about your objectivity.

Another fun fact: Transnistria was part of USSR when the rest of Moldova was part of Romania before ww2

Everyone should watch Bald and Bankrupt’s video of Transnistria (Prednistrovie). Really good

I mean the Moldovan government doesn't even help or send money to their "own territory". They have their own currency and are basically left to themselves.

I only recognise transnistria, no other countries exsist

Moldova fighting a war?? I’ve never heard that😅

What the heck happened to Crimea?

They are so chad by using the soviet flag until this day

"Is _______ a real country?" YOUVE ALERTED THE HORDE!

Transnistria became independent on September 2, 1990 from Moldova.

Well it is a real country as it has its own government, legislature, justice system, armed forces and run its own finances.

Russia and Ukraine at least we agree on one thing.

I am Original from transnistria but i moved to Belarus.

The ussr is still technically still here. Because this semi-nation never broke away from the union…

I live in Moldova and honestly it's bad for us with the Russia equipment because from Transnistria to our capital Chișinău is a 1 hour drive and if they decide to invade it's really bad for us.

Let’s recognize transistria and not Moldova

"Ok Bro we are goint ti create a new country and autorecognize"

I think no-one needs more deaths in that region I just hope for it

Only time we find Russia and Ukraine as Allies and working together

Should be also mentioned that it is also relatively resource rich

Fun fact : Ukraine helped Transnistria in its war against Moldova so that it could annex it later .Now isnt that ironic ?

I'm from Moldova 🇲🇩

Me in Moldova: In Mind: PLS DONT BE INDEPENDENCED

Is it too small to be recognized as a country? 400k population is huge. Brunei only 300k is a country

hello from Transnistria

Pov only caucasus recognizes transistia

is transistria an independent country? Eh sure why not

Prednestrovye)

What happened to Crimea on your map?

It's peaceful there, I love there

It is a real country

Remove the Russian army from interfering in Transnistria and you will see that if it is a real country. You can use this same exercise in all those other supposed breakaway republics. Most of us probably already know what will happen and it won’t be good for Russia.

Finally, someone calls arstakh by its name and not nagorno-karabakh Let me clear this up: arstakh has had mostly armenian population for a very long time, I, as an armenian-american recognize arstakh as its own republic, not part of Azerbaijani or armenian territory, and almost all of the rest of my family (The Yakligians and Sobajians) agree with me, I also have Azerbaijani friends who recognize arstakh as a republic. As an armenian I'm tired if misinformation getting spread by people who are Türkish and Azerbaijani, as proof that they cannot be trusted, I want to point out the fact the ottomans murdered an estimated 1.8 million Armenians Greeks and Syrians and still türkiye refuses to admit it even happened(Love to our brothers and sisters in Greece)

Bruh this is the guy who says "Math is so stupid ill never use it in my life"

I live there 💀

I do consider it as a country cus reasons

I first heard of this country from battlefield hardline when I got killed by a guy with this country flag as a dog tag, I was super confused because I saw the hammer and sickle and I was like "who still uses that symbol on their flag in plain 2022"? So I had to research it.

Ok so moldova was like(we have had 1year of independence… lets go to war

But it has its own currency, government, culture and border... it just lacks recognition, but otherwise it has everything a country has.

bro removed crimea💀💀💀

Hello from Transnistria, Рыбница!

Unrecognized gand is lesser with one member: Artsakh is gone

I didn’t know that Artsakh recognized Transnistria.

Russia: Peacekeeping opration

Trasnistria іs as much independent as DPR, LPR, Abkhazia and South Ossetia... The government is approved in Moscow, there are russian troops. Just another territory occupied and controlled by Russia to achieve their imperial ambitions

Is Transnistria a real country? 2 seconds later: *Its a region*

it's a bit wrong . Transnistria wanted to continue being part of the soviet union and they started to capture territory while also killing people that didn't want to take part

"Volunteers from Russia"

The women are beautiful there.

I recognise Transnistria as a country since they won the war.

Transnistria isnt communist, but its flag has the communism symbol on it, the culture of the country is also kinda similar to the USSR

SLAVA TRANSNISTRIA🤝🇷🇺

when you learn history from walmart:

An unrecognised country originating from an unrecognised country. . . .impressive

I don't like Transnistria but it IS a country by definition

If it rules it's own land, it's a country

Yeah, it’s real

"Peacekeeping troops"

If Transnistria decided to be part of Ukraine, Moldova would've been so much better now.

Я тут живу)

Crimea left chat

It was because of the language chosen for country

It is a country.

You mean by 3 (i know the first 2 are, not sure about the third one) other Russian made countries that Russia politely invaded, sperate those from Georgia and didn't even want at the end?

volunteers from Ukraine ≠ Ukraine support of Transnistria. Ukraine government supports and supported Moldova. + These volunteers fought to make Transnistria part of Ukraine, because Transnistria was part of Ukraine before, and there was no cooperation with Russia, same ideals or something

Man, Crimea.....

The ussr still exist on the flag
