I'm just telling a possible consequence of this situation. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Do they care about civilians living there? If they care, why are they still occupying the place since the 90's. Why still there, if Russia signed a treaty agreeing to withdraw its troops no later than 2002? (to break later their own promise). And in 2016 again. And even after the UN said "withdraw the troops right now" in 2018. If they don't care, why should we? I assume that the majority of natives from the area (that don't descend from Russians), should have the right to be left alone in their own country. Why only the ethnically Russians should have rights there? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_military_presence_in_Transnistria https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_military_presence_in_T...
