DIRECȚIILE ȘI INSTRUMENTELE DE POLITICĂ EXTERNĂ ALE FEDERAȚIEI RUSE ÎN PROBLEMA TRANSNISTREANĂ
The foreign policy of the Russian Federation towards the Transnistrian problem has evolved ambiguously since 1991, taking into account the changes in the international environment and the internal political crises. In the initial phase, the difficulty was that the documents adopted did not correspond to the changes in the status of Russia, which ceased to be a Union of states, but the ambitious tasks remained a solid foundation in the fundamental concepts of foreign policy. With the appointment of Yevgeniy Primakov as the Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Russia's foreign policy has become more balanced. The main objective initiated by it was the inviolability of the principle of territorial integrity and assistance in resolving conflicts in the post-Soviet space. Thus, a fixed direction of Russia's foreign policy on the Transnistrian issue began to develop, which developed in two directions: the recognition of the territorial integrity of the Republic of Moldova, the mediation in the political negotiations on the status of the Transnistrian region and the interaction with the Transnistrian region in economics, culture and military.
