Curated by: The Cold War (341 videos)
Our historical documentary series on the history of the Cold War continues with an examination of the origins of Moldova and Transnistria, from the 18th Century under the Russian Empire and then into the 20th Century, between Romania and the Soviet Union. We examine the conditions that would lead to war and then a frozen conflict after the dismantling of the Soviet Union.
