In the context of the phenomenon of restructuring and opening of the Soviet society, respectively of the processes of “glasnost” and “perestroika” initiated by Mikhail S. Gorbachev, there will be an intensification of the national reawakening process of Bessarabian Romanians from the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic (MSSR). The new political realities in the Moldavian space generated a reaction from the conservative forces in the Soviet Union that led to the Dniester War (March 2 - July 21, 1992) which was to give rise to numerous sufferings, involving human and material losses, as well as a “frozenconflict” with implications in the geopolitics of places. Romania supported politically and diplomatically the second Romanian state in its efforts to consolidate the independence and to assert a democratic course in terms of political developments in Chisinau, as well as to resolve the serious insecurity problems at the eastern border of the Euro-Atlantic world.
