Gagauz Halkı
Gagauz Halkı (meaning "Gagauz People" in the Gagauz language) was a Gagauz cultural and political organisation in Moldova. It originated as a cultural club in the Gagauz capital Comrat and initially supported the Popular Front of Moldova. However, the Popular Front's shift towards Romanian nationalism and Moldova-Romania unification caused Gagauz Halkı to turn and support Gagauz autonomy within and later separation from the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic. Moldovan authorities consequently declared Gagauz Halkı an illegal organisation in 1990. Gagauz Halkı supported the separatist side in the Gagauzia conflict, which was resolved with the intervention of the Red Army and the establishment of the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia. History Gagauz Halkı originated as a Gagauz cultural club in the Gagauz political capital of Comrat, founded amid Moldova's move towards independence (1988–1989). In early May 1989, it was transformed into an umbrella association o ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Banned Secessionist Parties
A ban is a formal or informal prohibition of something. Bans are formed for the prohibition of activities within a certain political territory. Some bans in commerce are referred to as embargoes. ''Ban'' is also used as a verb similar in meaning to "to prohibit". Etymology In current English usage, ''ban'' is mostly synonymous with ''prohibition''. Historically, Old English ''(ge)bann'' is a derivation from the verb ''bannan'' "to summon, command, proclaim" from an earlier Common Germanic ''*bannan'' "to command, forbid, banish, curse". The modern sense "to prohibit" is influenced by the cognate Old Norse ''banna'' "to curse, to prohibit" and also from Old French ''ban'', ultimately a loan from Old Frankish">-4; we might wonder whether there's a point at which it's appropriate to talk of the beginnings of French, that is, when it wa ...

Unification Of Moldova And Romania
The unification of Moldova and Romania is the idea that Moldova and Romania should become a single sovereign state and the political movement which seeks to bring it about. Beginning during the Revolutions of 1989 (including the Romanian Revolution and the independence of Moldova from the Soviet Union), the movement's basis is in the cultural similarity of the two countries, both being Romanian language, Romanian-speaking, and their history of unity as part of Greater Romania. The question of reunification is recurrent in the public sphere of the two countries, often as a speculation, both as a goal and a danger. Though historically Romanian support for unification was high, a March 2022 survey following the Russian invasion of Ukraine indicated that only 11% of Romania's population supports an immediate union, while over 42% think it is not the right moment. A majority in Moldova continues to oppose it. However, support in Moldova for reunification has increased significantly, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
