Moldova’s Trans-Dniester region pleads to join Russia

Pro-Russian politicians and activists in Moldova’s breakaway Trans-Dniester region have asked the Russian parliament to draft a law that would allow their territory to join Russia.

I can’t imagine that all these little breakaways joining Russia, bringing in their financial situations and their physical needs (Crimea was dependent on Ukraine for virtually all of its major needs) is going to do a lot of good for the Russian economy in the long term.
