Description Of Bessarabia And Why Romania Fears
Bessarabia, Romania’s northeastern province, borders Soviet Ukraine across the Dniester. After 1917 it sought autonomy and then union with Romania in 1918. Romania’s control was recognized by a 1920 treaty, though Russia never accepted the loss, fearing a Soviet bid to reclaim the province as a strategic Balkans foothold. The province covers 17,146 square miles with about 3.11 million people in 1937.
