After the dissolution of the USSR, tensions between the newly created Moldova and the de facto sovereign state of Pridnestrovie (which unlike the rest of Moldova did not wish to separate from the Soviet Union) escalated into a military conflict that started in March 1992 and was concluded by a ceasefire in July 1992. As part of that agreement, a three-party (Russia, Moldova, Transnistria) Joint Control Commission supervises the security arrangements in the demilitarized zone, comprising twenty localities on both sides of the river. Although the ceasefire has held, the territory's political status remains unresolved: Transnistria is an unrecognized but independent presidential republic with its own government, parliament, military, police, postal system, and currency.

The National Palace of Culture was designed by a team of Bulgarian and foreign architects led by Alexander Georgiev Barov (1931–1999). The landscaping of Bulgaria Square in front of the National Palace of Culture was made by another team of architects and landscape engineers, led by Atanas Agura.

The Chisinau Circus was constructed in 1981 by S. Shoikhet and A. Kirichenko in Moldova. The curent situation of the Chisinau Circus is uncertain. In 2008 the Chisinau Circus was leased out to a Cypriot company for a period of 29 years. The company pledged to restore the building, but did not honor its obligations and the contract was annulled in 2011.
