The Union of Moldavians in Transnistria is a non-governmental organization based in Transnistria (official shortform name: Pridnestrovie). Its 2005-2006 president was Valerianus Tulgar, an ethnic Moldovan born in Bessarabian part of Moldavian SSR. The union is composed of ethnic Moldovans (Moldavians). It is the largest group of Moldovans in Transnistria. It acts as a federation of local clubs and civic organizations of Moldovans throughout Transnistria. ''The Union of Moldavians Of Transnistria'' was founded in 1993. It held its fourth national congress in Tiraspol, April 2006, with 420 delegates present. The previous third congress of the Union took place during March 2003.〔(4th Congress of UMP ) (April 24, 2006)〕 The statements of the Union of Moldavians in Transnistria have consistently supported independence and sovereign statehood for Transnistria.〔(Statements of the 4th UMP Congress ) (April 24, 2006)〕 In an attempt to let the position of its membership be heard, the organisation organised participation during the 2005 election in the Republic of Moldova.〔(Union of Moldovans organised the participation of Transnistrians at Moldovan elections )〕 It accused the Moldovan authorities of voting obstruction and of violating the rights of the Moldovan citizens living in Transnistria. It claims that transportation was provided to 14,800 voters but stated that only some of them were allowed to vote. Individuals with old Soviet passport who did not the stamp "citizen of the Republic of Moldova" faced difficulties in voting.〔(www.e-democracy.md )〕 The Moldovan organization's opposition to unification with Moldova was repeated in an open letter issued October 19, 2006, to Moldova's President Vladimir Voronin in which the Union of Moldovans ask for Transnistria's de facto independence to be recognized de jure.〔(СОЮЗ МОЛДАВАН ПРИДНЕСТРОВЬЯ ПРИЗВАЛ МОЛДОВУ ПРИСТУПИТЬ К ПРОЦЕДУРЕ ПРИЗНАНИЯ ПМР КАК СУВЕРЕННОГО, НЕЗАВИСИМОГО ГОСУДАРСТВА )〕 Of the 35 nationalities represented in Transnistria, ethnic Moldovans make up a relative majority of 31.9 percent. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Union of Moldavians in Transnistria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
