We read all the lead to present a different history.
The collapse of the Soviet Union was one of the greatest tragedies in human history, in which only a tiny number of conspirators became vested interests, while many more ordinary people became the mourners of the destruction of the Soviet Union. However, under the insulcation of the conspirators, many Soviet people became participants in this secession. However, when their wish is really fulfilled, they find that in addition to having the nationality of an independent nation-state, they have lost more things to cherish. Moldovans feel this way.
Moldova was known as the Moldavian Soviet Republic during the Soviet period and was one of the smallest member states of the Soviet Union. Moldavia is only 14th in size among all the Soviet unions and 9th in terms of population. In addition, Moldavia was the last member state of the Soviet Union. In 1940, Stalin invaded Moldova under the pretext of consolidating the Eastern Front and merged it with the Moldavian Autonomous Republic on the left bank of the Transnistria river to form the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic, which was also the 15th member state of the Soviet Union.
The Soviet occupation of Moldova was clearly illegitimate, but with the support of the Soviet Union, Moldova's social economy did make great strides. Until 1940, Moldova had been dominated by a small-scale peasant economy, and after becoming a member of the Soviet Union, the agriculture and industry of the newly established Republic of Moldavia developed rapidly. In particular, during Brezhnev's administration of Moldavia, Moldavia completed the collectivization of agriculture and became a latecomer to the Soviet family. After the 1970s, Moldavia's industrial development was always faster than agriculture, and with the support of Soviet policy, Moldavia also established a good industrial base. For a long time, Moldavia was the most developed region in Europe for metallurgy.
However, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, all the advantages of the past were gone. Objectively speaking, Moldavia was not an active participant in the collapse of the Soviet Union, and they were far less active than the baltic states, Ukraine, and Russia, or even far less active than Georgia and other countries. However, as the younger brother of the Soviet family, Moldavia could only follow the big brothers. After the "819" incident in 1991, Moldavia also followed suit and chose independence and established the Republic of Moldova.
However, an independent state did not bring more benefits to the Moldovans. For a long time, Moldova did not know which side it should move toward after independence. Some want to restore past history and merge with Romania; some want to move closer to NATO and the West; and still others support the country's continued close cooperation with CIS countries such as Russia. In 1993, for example, the Moldovan parliament rejected the decision to join the CIS, but less than a year later, the parliament re-approved the resolution.
However, no matter what path is chosen, the unavoidable problem is that Moldova is too small and their industrial development has hit a bottleneck as a result. For example, moldova's metallurgical industry, although their quality is still the same, but the local raw materials can only meet 20% of the production needs of enterprises, more need to rely on imports, which undoubtedly compresses the moldovan metallurgical industry to survive in space. During the Soviet era, this aspect of the problem was planned by Moscow, and did not need to be too worried about the local government, but now, this has become the lifeblood of Moldova's economic development.
Due to the continued economic downturn, Moldova gradually became the poorest country in Europe. This small Eastern European country with a population of nearly 4 million people has more than 500,000 people. Living below the poverty line. Because Moldova cannot provide so many jobs in the country, nearly a quarter of Moldovan adults have been forced to choose to work abroad, which is rare in the world.
What is even more tragic is that in the wave of emigration from Eastern European countries to the West that formed after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Moldovan women formed a special group. Most of these Moldovan women are good-looking and in good shape, but most of them are not highly educated, so these beautiful and simple Moldovan women have also become the prey of pimps. According to statistics, nearly 400,000 women in Moldova have been forced to become prostitutes, that is, there will be one prostitute in every ten Moldovans, young and old, regardless of men, women and children.
In 2009, Moldova made its integration into Europe and accession to the European Union the most important basis for formulating its own domestic and foreign policies. Although the country is still not rich, with the moldovan government's proper handling of NATO countries and former Soviet countries, Moldovans have gradually lived a stable life. I hope moldova can cherish its country and get out of the quagmire as soon as possible!
