Varniţa, Anenii Noi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Varniţa is a commune in the Anenii Noi district, Moldova, located near Tighina (Bender). It is also considered a suburb of Tighina. After the 1992 War of Transnistria, Varniţa remained controlled by the government of the Republic of Moldova, while the city of Tighina is controlled by the separatist authorities of Transnistria.

According to the 2004 Moldovan Census, there were 4,210 inhabitants, 3,390 of which were ethnic Romanians, 228 Ukrainians, 454 Russians, 15 Gagauzes, 35 Bulgarians, 1 Jew, 1 Pole, 50 Gypsies, and 36 other/undeclared.

The separatist leaders mention Varniţa as being part of the separatist Republic, but the attempts of Transnistrian authorities to take control of the town failed.
