How did Transnistria's previous energy arrangement with Russia contribute to the current crisis?

Transnistria, for over 15 years, benefited from free Russian gas, using it to generate electricity sold cheaply to Moldova. This arrangement ended with the contract expiration, creating the current crisis and leaving Moldova facing higher energy costs, particularly as it relies on Transnistria for about 80 percent of its energy needs. Moldova's government is disputing Russia's claim of a 700 million euro debt, with an independent audit revealing a far smaller amount.

Moldova's offer to facilitate gas purchases from Europe, costing €20-45 million, was rejected by Transnistria, which cited concerns over price volatility despite the dire humanitarian consequences.
