Resumen

The purpose of this article is to analyse an unknown case of two different secessionist processes in the Republic of Moldova-Gagauzia and Transnistria-started in the framework of the decomposition of the Soviet Union. Both of them emerged as a virulent reaction to the irruption of a pro-Romanian Moldovan nationalism with a radical irredentist character.
