Russian Foreign minister Lavrov: Moldova and Transniester ready to return to Kozak Plan
Putin's staff member, Dimitri Kozak was the one to offer a solution to the Transniester conflict, by proposing a Republic of Moldova federation. The plan, 'basic principles of the unified state' is actually a federalization project and was dropped due to opposition from other parties involved in efforts to solve the Transdniestr conflict.
Transniester and Gagauzia, according to the plan, would get a right to organize referendum and decide whether they want to be part of the Republic of Moldova. Moreover, the plan would offer them a veto right to both domestic and international policies that might hinder their interests.
