Recent Evolutions of the Political Environment in Transnistria

Summary/Abstract: After 900 days of interim, in March 2012, the Republic of Moldova has succeeded in getting a President. Due to this harsh period of time, mentioned above for the Moldavian political arena, the events from Transnistria seemed that have been almost, ignored. In this, selfproclaimed republic, have taken place parliamentary and presidential elections, and the most important, Igor Smirnov has lost the presidency. The aim of this paper is not to establish a series of scenarios that suppose to follow the election of the 45-year old leader in the breakaway republic, but to embed the relations of this controversial political actor, as Transnistria is, with Kishinev, Moscow, or Brussels. “5+2” meetings for the conflict’s resolution were resumed, where many actors have been implied, while the political environment from Transnistria is being watched very carefully by EU, Russian Federation, United States or other political actors.
