| Abstract: | The Transnistrian peacekeeping format, installed in the Security Zone under the 1992 ceasefire agreement, is strongly contested by civil society and some political forces in Chisinau. During this time, it is defended by Moscow and Tiraspol. Our research aims to describe the institutional mechanisms of the peacekeeping mission, and to address some topics for investigation: Do the founding acts have the character of an international treaty? What are the consequences of defining them correctly?; What is the effectiveness of the peacekeeping mission on the Dniester? How do we evaluate?; Is the presence and contribution of the Russian Troops Task Force necessary for the pacification format? |
