Yevgeny Shevchuk

HARDtalk is in Tiraspol, Transnistria, to speak to Yevgeny Shevchuk, leader of the breakaway territory. How much longer will Transnistria be stuck in political and strategic limbo?

HARDtalk is on location in Tiraspol, capital of the self-proclaimed republic of Transnistria - a sliver of territory inside Moldova which for the past two decades or so has been in the hands of pro-Russian separatists. As Vladimir Putin flexes Russia's muscles across the former Soviet Union Stephen Sackur asks Yevgeny Shevchuk, leader of the breakaway territory, for just how much longer will Transnistria be stuck in political and strategic limbo?
