Goian (Ukrainian: Гояни, Hoiany, Russian: Гояны, Goiany) is a commune in Transnistria, Moldova. It is composed of two villages, Goian and Iagorlîc (Ягорлик, Ягорлык).[1] It has since 1990 been administered as a part of the breakaway Pridnestrovian Moldovan Republic.

Notes

  1. ^ Transnistria's political status is disputed. It considers itself to be an independent state, but this is not recognised by any UN member state. The Moldovan government and the international community consider Transnistria a part of Moldova's territory.
