The "Black Colonel" of Russia's Parliament says that his country will need to recognize Transdniestria's independence. Viktor Alksnis also added that recognition will be granted by a number of other countries as well, including Belarus, Venezuela and Cuba. The move would turn Transdniestria into a partially recognized state, with a status similar to places like Taiwan, Israel and Western Sahara. [more]
