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?

Smirnov Running For Fourth Term

Tag it:

Friday, 03 November 2006

I just read this unusually unbiased article on rferl. Well actually the last line is a bit of a dig I suppose if you read between the lines, suggesting that real places have limits to terms of office, but still:

The leader of the pro-Russian separatist region of Transdniester in eastern Moldova has submitted his candidacy for a fourth term as president.

Igor Smirnov, who has run the province since 1991 when it declared independence from Moldova, said today that he "trusts in the people's will."

The head of Transdniester's electoral commission, Piotr Denisenko, said Smirnov's name would be on the ballot for the December 10 election. The breakaway, self-declared republic has no term limits for the presidency.
