The paper seeks to answer how Ukraine perceives the neighboring quasi-state of Transnistria in the context of its national security and how the 2014 Ukrainian-Russian conflict has influenced that perception. It finds that previously Transnistria – a pro-Russian region with Russian troops and security service – was assessed by Ukraine as a low-risk threat, but that because of the conflict, the quasi-state has been identified by Ukraine as a direct threat to its security and territorial integrity.
