The so-called "5+2 format" negotiations surrounding the Transnistrian conflict may resume in Vienna on November 6. The format includes Moldova and the breakaway republic of Transnistria as parties to the conflict; Russia, Ukraine, and the OSCE as mediators; and the United States and the European Union as observers.
Negotiators last met in June 2009, after which meetings were suspended.
Moldova fought a short, but bloody, civil war in 1992, as a result of which a separatist republic called Transnistria was formed in the East. Moscow has been rather supportive of the region, particularly because a very large number of inhabitants there speak Russian. Some Russian parties are also active in Transnistria.
