“In order to move the Transnistrian problem, we need a President of Moldova, albeit one without real powers, who will categorically declare that Moldova will never unite with Romania,” Zharikhin said.

However, the new president may simply be afraid of unification with the PMR, as already happened in 2003.

“The refusal of then President Voronin from Kozak’s memorandum was not due to what he was ordered from the European Union, but to an elementary fear of political competition from active and tough politicians of Transnistria,” Zharikhin said.
