Ian Fleming could not have imagined a better place to set his latest thriller: an upstart mini-state at the edge of Europe, Transnistria is a nowherel&, a Soviet museum occupied by Russian peace-keepers near the Black Sea. Its oligarchs in Adidas tracksuits hunt wild boar with AK-47s. Its young people train for revolution at the Che Guevara High School of Political Leadership. Its secret factories have supplied arms to Chechnya & electrical cable to Iran`s Bushehr nuclear power plant. Its isolation & tiny size belie the real threat it poses to the West. To many observers Transnistria is the North Korea of Europe. Yet its new president has launched a cunning coup of political marketing, appointing as his top ministers personable young women like the Facebook-savvy Cheryl Cole lookalike Foreign Minister, sexing-up the republic`s image abroad, & using their glitter to obscure this internationally unrecognised non-state`s shadowy past. Now ambassadors & foreign ministers are queuing up to meet them. Rory Mac Lean & Nick Danziger, two of Europe` s most intrepid travellers & chroniclers, document life in the only country in the world not to have recognised the collapse of the Soviet Union. Readers will find themselves truly back in the USSR
- with a difference.
