Transnistria or Trans-Dniester is a region in eastern Europe. Although it is internationally recognised as part of the Republic of Moldova, it claims independence and maintains sovereignty over its territory with the assistance of Russian forces. The unrecognized state has been de facto independent since 1991, when it made a unilateral declaration of independence from Moldova and successfully defeated Moldovan forces, with Russian assistance, in the War of Transnistria. While a ceasefire has held ever since 1992, the Council of Europe recognizes Transnistria as a "frozen conflict" region. |
Tiraspol Tiraspol is the administrative center of Transdnestrian Autonomy, and the second largest city in Moldova, if it is considered to be part of that nation. It had a population of 266,789 (2005). Tiraspol is located on the eastern bank of the Dniestr River. |
