This time I must admit that Radu is right!
The Western Powers will support us only if they have interest in the area, and right now they are more interested in economic relations with Russia (Germany, France f.i.) or limit U.S. power and influence, than the situation of Transdniestria... Yet hope comes from Ukraine where the new pro-Russian leadership could lead, in time, to a position change of the Western Powers?! This is only an assumption not a certainty...

I means that something big would hapen, in one kind of scenario. Remember, after the 9/11 Americans come and seize Afghanistan, just because this atack come from Al Queda.

You'd have to ask Contras what he meant with what you quoted from his post.


But, in one scenario I put there, will be another terorist attack against US, or other western power, like UK, and if the westerner specialist will conclude that the explosive device come from Transnistria, whou could western poweres would react? They think about eliminate the danger in Transnistria.

Contras, I do not understand what did you mean by that!
You talk of creating a pretext for solving the problem of Transnistria or...?
Because the secessionist transdnestrian leaders have no interest to quarrel with the West or the US! That's why I'm asking...

I do not talking about solve one problem. I put a question about what if.
If tomorow would be another 9/11 case, and if US specialists would say that the explosive device come from Transnistria, how the US leadership would react? They will put a question to Moscow or will try to put the Transnistrain leadership to end? That is the question.

Ok Contras, I get it!
It's really a question to ask! And my answer would be : Are there U.S. strategic interests in the Transnistria area or vicinity ? Because if the answer is yes, we can hope...

Look at the arms smuggling from Transnistria to every hot spot worldwide. This trade is made via Odessa, with Ukraine's complicity. Interseting, Transnistria sell arms to Checenia, too, and Russians don't do anything to stop this, even if with those arms, their own soldiers are killed. It is like in Soviet-Afghan war, when soldiers sold their arms to Mujahedins, and later were killed by their own arms.

About this arm smuggling, look here:

Yes, an interesting approach, Contras!
But I still think that the U.S. are more interested, at least for the moment, in that subject (Transnistria) than the E.U. or any other european power. Maybe in the future the european powers will see with open eyes this problem...
For now the Germans, French, Italians are more interested in economic relations with Russia than in this hidden danger... (the sell of french arms to Russia for exemple!)
Do you not think so?

Yes, I agree.
But maybe another Madrid or London blasting, this time with explosive devices who could be tracked to Tiraspol, would make Europeans more sensilble at this problem. Or, maybe, a nuclear or radiologic device.
About the arms sales to Russia, remember what said Lenin:
The capitalists will sell us the rope which we will use to hang them.

After Moldova's interim president poured cold water over dreams of unification, now we have this:

Interview with Foreign Affairs Minister Teodor Baconschi

QUOTE
Lately, many have been speculating, especially at Moscow, about Moldova uniting with Romania – rumours formally rejected in Chisinau. What is the position of MAE with this respect?

I cannot react to rumours. Let me stress our position again: Romania is willing to assist the political, economical and social reform process in the Republic of Moldova, and we are an active supporter of this country’s EU aspirations. I need not remind anyone that we recognised the independence of the Republic of Moldova in 1991. These are hard facts – the rest is mere speculation. I am confident, however, that the present administration in Chisinau has a correct understanding of our position.
