Recent development of Transnistrian conflict in the light of crisis on UkraineReviewed - Review

Mgr. Lukáš Dyčka

This article analyses frozen Conflict in separatist region of Transnistria in the light of recent crisis on Ukraine. Despite standing in the shade of Ukraine, the importance of Transnistria has been once again highlighted by Russian support to separatist movements in post-soviet area. Hence text also argues, that by precise analysis of important agents involved in Transnistrian conflict, such as Russia, Ukraine or Romania, we can better understand not only current development in this "de-facto state", but also put annexation of Crimea (or war in eastern Ukraine) into context. On the other hand, influence of Russian military presence in Transnistria on Ukraine war effort is also important and deserves to be closely studied.

Keywords: Transnistria, Separatism, War in Ukraine, Russian politics, Moldova, Frozen conflict, Ukraine Crisis
