Summary/Abstract: The Transdnistrian conflict or the war in Transdnistria (sometimes called Moldovan-Russian war) was a military conflict, currently a political conflict between Moldova and the self-proclaimed “Transdniester Moldovan Republic” over control in Camenca, Dubăsari, Grigoriopol, Ribniţa, Slobozia and Tiraspol, located on the left bank of the Dniester river, and Bender city, located on the right bank of the same river. The political conflict started in 1990, immediately after the independence of the so-called Transnistrian Moldovan Republic, with its dormant phase still being carried out today.
