Nice article. The part on the "Moldovan language" is a
succinct and NPOV presentation of the problem. The
author is not affiliated with either part. Citations

Hoi,
It is indeed a good presentation of many linguistic issues. It
explicitly says that both the Moldovan and the Trans Sinistrians have
made it a violation to use anything but "their" script. It also makes it
quite clear that the middle ground is denied by both parties. The
article explains that politics and the use of different scripts can and
does lead to a growing apart of what used to be a languages continuum.
Given the article there is no denying that both the Latin and the
Cyrillic script are used for what is still considered to be one
language. It provides absolutely no argument why we should not support both.
Thanks,
Gerard
