Romania and the Republic of Moldova wish to unite, sharing the same language, religion, culture, and history, and maintaining strong kinship ties at both the family and societal levels.
However, Moldova has been under Russian occupation since 1991. It was the first country invaded by Russia following the collapse of the USSR; consequently, the Romanian nation (since Moldovans are Romanians) was the first to suffer—and continues to suffer—Russian aggression through military occupation in the Transnistria region. Although part of the Republic of Moldova, this region has unilaterally declared independence—a status recognized by *no one* in the world.
If Romania and Moldova were to unite, Moldova would automatically enter the EU and NATO, bypassing all standard accession, reform, and integration procedures for both organizations.
Subsequently, NATO would be compelled to move its troops to the edge of the new border.
This gives rise to a complex question: to which border would NATO move? Since Transnistria is not recognized by the UN, it has no right to exist as an independent state; therefore, NATO would have to move in and confront the Russian army stationed in the region.
If NATO failed to move its troops and instead halted before the Russian army in Transnistria, it would constitute a grave violation of Romania's new national sovereignty by both the EU and NATO.
Protocols dictate that a state joining the EU and NATO must possess clearly defined borders.
However, existing treaties contain no provisions regarding the unification of two states where one faces issues concerning its borders.
Why is this scenario not being discussed?

I wasn’t aware of any *serious* discussion to unite the two countries. Of course before that to happen, the Russian occupiers in Moldova would have to leave. I can see that only happen by force, after Ukraine has thrown them out of their country and do the same together with the Moldovan army in their country.
Moldova barly have army.
They rely on neutrality, Ukraine and Romania.
But after PAS Party win for the second time majority and Maia Sandu been reelected, the unification become more a serious topic.
And russia army is a problem, but not for Romania, as it will be for NATO.
Romania can take down that Russian army in just 1 day.
But i don't think they will ever live peacefuly from thare.
Oh you have reminded me of Romania, the good old days, my first love and real girlfriend was a romanian girl...
Merging two countries makes a brand new country. One annexing the other to add to its land is different.
Not really.
If Moldova unite with Romania, there will not be a new country. It will still be Romanian the name of the country, the money will still be the romanian (leu) or euro if we get in to Euro Zone by then (Romania), the language will still be call romanian whitch is the official one in both Romania and Rep. Moldova.
RFG and RDG unification been done totaly in to RFG (Republic Federation of Germany/Germany). The RDG simply accepted unconditionaly and peacefully to unite under RFG reprezentation, sistem and values.
But RDG didn't have a separatist problem back in the 90's, but Moldova do have and is even back up by Russia itself.
dangerous question. Russian troops are there and the UN have asked them 2 times to leave. Ukranie offered to invade this region if Moldova wanted.
Ukraine is looking at Transnistria like a tiger to a bloody pice of meat, the handle to open the gate for Ukraine is on Rep. Moldova hands, they can even call for the other animal (us Romania).
In both case, both Romania and Ukraine have all the capability's necessary to eradicate that russian army from there.
But all 3 of us, especialy Moldova want evrething to happen peacefully and Transnistria to return and cooperate with the capital Chisinau, radar then use force and war.
There are around and just 5000 people in the Russian army in Transnistria.
people want peace and not war. I was in Moldova 2 times. War is not nice but it is sadly happening. Do whatever you want its the decisions of your governments not me.
I'm actualy from Romania, not Rep. Moldova.
Moldova know our answer, more then 70% of romanians want unification.
Moldova need at some point to make a referendum when it feel is the right time.
No. The EU will never confront Russia
They will be obligate by the situation of Romania and Moldova unification. Is not a yes or no. Is a fact.
No they won't. They won't recognise it. Just like they wouldn't accept Ukraine into the EU or NATO
If Romania and Moldova recognise it, you have no decision, you are obligated to recognised. Because 2 governament, elected democraticly and with referendum done, BEFORE unification, and also history that is on both country THE SAME, can't be denied.
The EU would boot Romania out if they decided to seize Russian territory and Romania wouldn't go it alone.
Be real
