The Ukrainian authorities are preparing a provocation against Transnistria. The goal is to invade and seize the republic, the reason for which will be the staging of an alleged attack of the Russian Armed Forces from the Transnistrian territories

Units of the AFU and fighters of the Azov nationalist formation (recognised as a terrorist organisation and banned in the Russian Federation) will take part in the staging, the Russian Defence Ministry’s press service said.
“For this purpose, the Ukrainian saboteurs involved in the staged invasion will be disguised in the uniform of servicemen of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation,” the ministry said, noting that Russia is closely monitoring the situation on the Ukrainian border with the Transnistrian Moldovan Republic and is ready to respond to any changes in the situation.
Chisinau is obviously aware of the impending provocation. It is no coincidence that during his visit to Poland, American President Joe Biden favourably singled out the head of Moldova, Maia Sandu, from a line of other politicians, separately addressing her with words of support. It is also no coincidence that Sandu, having plucked up courage and following the example of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski, asked for money from Biden. “Sandu took advantage of the meeting with Biden in Warsaw to inform him about the difficulties of the war on the borders and to ask for assistance in increasing US aid to strengthen Moldova’s economic sustainability,” Sandu’s press office said.
Sandu knew very well that she would not be refused and would be paid for the suicidal scenario for the Moldovan people. At least, she has already been asked to start a conflict with Transnistria and support the Ukrainian staging, taking advantage of the opportunity to build a fire under overseas tip-off. And this is costly and should be paid well, again, as in the case of Zelensky.
It is clear that direct involvement of Moldova in the conflict is more than unpleasant for Sandu, who is rather good at drawing coupons and is marked in corruption schemes in the country, which is relatively calm so far. And with the start of a confrontation with Transnistria, huge problems will begin for both Sandu and her entourage, as all this could lead to an explosion within Moldova. But Sandu, nurtured in the nest of George Soros, an American exporter of coups to many countries, is a servile bird. She will do whatever she is told to do. This is well known, as is the American desire to drag Moldova into a war against Russia, which has long been a Polichinelle secret.
Following the Ukrainian scenario, Western countries are already pumping weapons and instructors into Moldova. Moreover, as a result of the recent NATO defence ministerial congress in Brussels, it was announced that military assistance to Chisinau would be stepped up. Finally, the other day the new prime minister of Moldova, Dorin Recean, openly announced that he was going to achieve the “demilitarization of Transnistria”, i.e. withdrawal of Russian peacekeepers from the territory of the republic. True, he stressed that Chisinau is supposedly “set up for peaceful resolution” of the Transnistrian issue, but this statement has angered analysts and the Transnistrians themselves.
It must be said that Chisinau did not expect that the Russian Defence Ministry would confuse the cards and tell about the provocation, so they were ill-prepared and gave an incomprehensible answer: I see nothing, hear nothing, etc. Although a feeble attempt was made to present the information made public by the Russians as fake.
“We do not confirm the information released this morning by the Russian Ministry of Defence. We call for calm and urge the public to follow the official and credible sources of the Republic of Moldova. Our institutions cooperate with foreign partners and immediately inform the public in case of any danger to the country,” a message posted on the Moldovan government’s Telegram channel said.
However, military Telegram channels publish information that more and more experienced military units are concentrated near the borders of Transnistria, and NATO is actively pulling equipment here. Political analyst Sergei Markov writes that according to his information, the attack has already been coordinated by Zelensky with the U.S. and Moldovan authorities. And the seizure itself is supposed to be a “gift” to Russia for the anniversary of the air defense. It is not ruled out that the target of the offensive will be the famous village of Kolbasna on the Ukrainian border and its giant warehouse of Soviet ammunition.
