Politically moderate Gagauz received support from
Turkey,
which urged the leadership of the "Gagauz Republic" to
negotiate
with the Moldovan government rather than resort to
violence, as
had been the case in Transnistria. Turkish president
Süleyman
Demirel visited the "Gagauz Republic" in mid-1994, urging
the
Gagauz to accept regional autonomy and to be loyal
citizens of
Moldova. Turkey pledged to invest US$35 million in the
Gagauz
region via Chisinau.
