Should the world acknowledge Transdniestria as an independent country?

	Yes, absolutely - if that's what the people want!
	Perhaps, after some changes.
	Not sure, the issue is complicated.
	Definately not, Transdniestria is part of Moldova!
	Where the Hell is Transdniestria?

Moldovan Ministry of Reintegration considers that the Transdniestrian authorities mislead the international community in order to disguise their own destructive actions by asking Russia, Ukraine and the OSCE for help. In a commentary the Ministry says that it is the restrictions imposed on the Transdniestrian economic agents by the Smirnov administration that can determine a humanitarian catastrophe in the region not the new customs regime imposed by Ukraine and Moldova.
?In the circumstances in which the Council of the European Union, the European Parliament, the OSCE, Ukraine, the US, other countries, international and regional forums condemned Transdniestrian administration for the repressive actions and called on the regional authorities to unblock the situation and ensure economic operators?? free activity, such propagandistic measures can do nothing but misinform the economic agents and population of the region. They are subjected to unprecedented informational and administrative pressure, the commentary reads.

?We condemn the recent attempts to justify and support the steps taken by the Smirnov administration that endanger the security of Transdniestrian population and businesses. We hope the actors with influence in the region will make Smirnov ensure the free movement of goods and people in the region so as to avert a crisis that would affect the entire population of the Transdniestrian region, the commentary runs.

Igor Smirnov, leader of the breakaway region of Transdniestria, asked Russia, Ukraine and the OSCE not to admit a humanitarian catastrophe in the region and examine the possibility of providing Transdniestria with humanitarian aid.

?The region is on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe and the situation is getting more and more tense, what can lead to direct confrontations, the letter sent by Smirnov to Russian and Ukrainian Presidents and to the OSCE Chairman-in-Office Karel de Gucht reads.
