Summary

Description

Dubăsari and its suburbs were the site of major conflict during 1990-1992, that eventually degenerated into the War of Transnistria (1992). Since then, it has been controlled by the breakaway administration of Transnistria.

Transnistria (also called Trans-Dniestr or Transdniestria) is a breakaway state located mostly on a strip of land between the River Dniester and the eastern Moldovan border with Ukraine. Since its declaration of independence in 1990, and especially after the War of Transnistria in 1992, it is governed as the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR, also known as Pridnestrovie) a state with limited recognition that claims territory to the east of the River Dniester, and also to the city of Bender and its surrounding localities located on the west bank, in the historical region of Bessarabia. The terms "Transnistria" and "Pridnestrovie" both reference the Dniester River.

Pridnestrovie retains a strong pride in it's Russian and Soviet heritages.
