In the Republic of Moldavia, two Orthodox churches, the one under the Moscow Patriarchate and the other under Bucharest, co-exist but with difficulty nowadays. In 1992, a conflict broke out between these two local institutions and the two Patriarchates. The intervention of Moldavian and then European political authorities made the issues in this conflict even more important and visible. This conflict's roots in history are examined as well as the arguments used by various parties.
