Talk:2006 Transnistrian customs crisis

Add a photo
Please add a photo to this page. There are some great ones here which deal with the border conflict and which are are under GFDL: About two-thirds of the pictures are directly related to this article, including one where PMR protestors face off against a Ukraine border guard. I also like this one: Democratic protest and the Virgin Mary - William Mauco 04:27, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Pridnestrovie.net: A free people


 * A free people, right? heh. Very free country, where only anti-Moldova/pro-government/pro-Russian protests are allowed, while people that who disagree with the government are arrested... :-) bogdan 21:15, 16 March 2006 (UTC)


 * The text "A free people" is not my opinion. It is the name of the headline on the particular page where the photos are listed. I am merely referencing the page correctly, that's all. - William Mauco 04:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't know that "people who disagree with the government are arrested". I think that was more than ten years ago (the only reference I have is actually from 1992). If you have any more recent cases of people being arrested over there for not agreeing with the government please cite. Otherwise we have to file it in the urban myth section. - William Mauco 04:07, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

Lies :-)

 * Transnistria's Minister of Economy, Elena Chernenko, says that Transnistria loses $2-2.5 million daily from the Ukrainian regulations. RBC News


 * Transnistria is planning to achieve a 5-percent increase in its GDP in 2005, the Economy Ministry of the breakaway republic reported to RBC. The ministry added that the GDP estimate for this year was about $420m RBC News

Now. If Transnistria loses $2-2.5 million daily, in a year, it would lose each year up to $920m, twice the value of its GDP, which makes no sense economically. :-) bogdan 09:05, 21 April 2006 (UTC)


 * ROL. There's no doubt they're bleeding cash but they are also wildly overstating their case. Probably so that they will get bigger handouts from Russia. See Russia to give free financial aid to Transdnestr - Mauco 09:22, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Needs update
What happened after March 22nd? AnonMoos 23:14, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It is still pretty much a deadlock. Neither side has caved in. Some of the largest Transnistrian companies were forced to register in Moldova in order to export anything and not commit economic suicide, but it appears that they did so under duress because most of them just opted for the 3 month temporary registration which only gives them the right to export to CIS-countries and not worldwide. The PMR government established a web site which gives daily updates on the situation. It is only in Russian. It is http://mkspmr.idknet.com/ - Mauco 01:31, 9 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I have the same question. Now we are in October. Still the same? - Pernambuco 13:10, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Update?
And now we are in June 2011. Would be helpful to know what the situation is these days. --Ukas (talk) 18:33, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Seems to me as if the title should be 'Transnistria border customs issues' i.e., WITHOUT the final n.
