Alexander Ivanovitch Korolev was elected (elections not admitted internationally) in December last vice-president of the historical president of the Moldovan Republic of Dniestr, Igor Smirnoff. He represents a new generation and it is an administrator and a technocrat who had occupied before the post of Interior minister. According to the Constitution of Transnistrie, the vice-president takes automatically the place of the president if this last leaves. A possibility that they often heard recalled in Tiraspol.
July, 2007 in Tiraspol
Korolev: The training of our State is the result of the collapse of Soviet Union. Borders which were artificially fixed by the Soviet State resulted in controversial situations. One of the reasons of this conflict here is that the territory of the Moldovan Republic of Dniestr was never included in a Moldovan State. And borders which were drawn for other purposes under Stalin could reflect under no circumstances the realities of the countries concerned. It is victims of which we are today! Bessarabie was between Dniestr and ProC river. Us, we are of other one quoted by Dniestr and we were in Ukraine. Even after the collapse of USSR and the proclamation of the independence of Moldova, which was train e to the UNO in fact by the Romanian leaders, we were never part of this state, safe for the period 1944-1990 as part of USSR.
To solve question today, it is necessary to leave history and to admit that our territory was never part of Moldova.
Question: Today, conflict is "frozen". Do you see a means "to improve" it in a way?
Korolev: To improve a conflict it is not still to solve it! To improve him, nothing simpler: one of the parts has to start warlike actions. But it is not this that is going to help to solve conflict! And it is true question. How to resolve problem indeed? So that he does not come back to life continuously, it is necessary to find an equitable way, that is to say taking into account political, economic, vital interests of both parts. (more )

Signs back from Cold War in Europe with the installation of radars and American missiles on borders of Russia and answers of this last, risk putting again on the front of the stage of the forgotten regions and of conflicts frozen following the implosion of Soviet empire.
Among these last, the Moldovan Republic of Dniestr or Transnistrie, is the closest to us.
Considered to be a region of Moldova, she hopes for 17 years for an international recognition which an independence of Kosovo after that of Montenegro could justify.
With new geopolitical stakes, they will discuss again undoubtedly Moldovan Transnistrie-R publique of Dniestr described here by inside, as seldom in the Western press. Let us wish however the Moldovans of both banks it is in the sense of a compromise, cannot completely be excluded to read nearly the interview granted to our special correspondent by the new vice-president, Alexander Korolev.
Strange impression that that of a country which does not "exist" and where however there are people, from cities, fields, plants, supermarkets, transport, mobile and Internet phones. No land was hidden behind a mysterious waterfall, nor a living museum cryog nis to the Korean of the north, as it is believed sometimes or as it would be possible to let him think of a flag of sickle and hammer. It is is from today's Europe him.
Between Moldova and Ukraine, on 4 km2, almost twice Luxembourg, about 550 speaking inhabitants three different languages with Russian as common language, wait for the end of an uncertainty which mines them, prevents them from making plans and from working normally because nobody admits them, except them the same. They trade nonetheless, travel thanks to other passports, are exploited by their neighbours who use situation but benefit undoubtedly sometimes from their status out of laws because otherwise how to include a situation frozen for ten seven years?

Of the mythical road of Var gues trading with Byzance and Khazars in the "window" opened on the Baltic Sea, the question of the opening up of the Russian space is permanently, and all the more after 1991: the purpose of USSR drove to a redistribution of cards in the sector of transport. Transport declines under several modes but to include the largeness of current, notably multimode plans, it is necessary to return to problems generated by the bursting of USSR. (more )

The birth of a modern science in Russia, goes back up at the time of Peter the Great, which creates the Academy of sciences in 1725, and favours education of mathematics and physical sciences, to fill Russian delay up in relation to Western Europe, notably in military and naval domains. This dynamics will be followed by Catherine II, who encourages the creation of universities, and in varying degrees by her successors, throughout the XIXth century.
