I recall something about a wine copyright issue? Will try to look it up.

I found no copyright issue, only tariffs, and a March 2006-October 2007 ban by Russia on Moldovan wine for not meeting health standards (behind which Moldovans suspected a political motive).

Interesting articles.  I really have a lot of sympathy for all of those former Soviet republics that are trying to maintain/improve their economies and maintain independence. Visiting most of them during the mid 90s, I saw a lot of people living in poor conditions and it did not appear as if improvements would come rapidly.
