"Enough problems in Ukraine": Russia will not have the strength to invade Moldova - NATO (video)
According to a representative of the North Atlantic Alliance, Russia is still making a plan to capture Odessa and make a corridor in Transnistria, but because of the problems that have developed on the Ukrainian Front, it cannot do so. "Returning to the Republic of Moldova, Russia has no strength today, but they still have a plan to withdraw from Transnistria to Ukraine and surround it from the rear. They want to take Odessa and make a corridor in Transnistria, and try to implement it.
But we do not see enough strength in Russia to do it, " - said Joan. According to NATO Secretary General, Russia is actively interfering with the pro -Western direction of Moldova and trying to "undermine the supreme leadership of Mia Sandu. " "They try to do in Moldova the same as in Ukraine, or as in Georgia, or as in Bosnia and any other country that is part of our family. But now we see that Russia has no power to start war Against NATO. They have enough problems in Ukraine.
And we need to help Ukraine deal even more problems, ”Joan stressed. NATO is convinced that Russia's rhetoric "comes from powerlessness, not from power," and Moldova's leadership "can count" to support the Alliance in the event of escalation. On February 13, the President of the Republic of Moldova Sanga said that the Kremlin plans to make a coup in the country.
The head of Moldova reported that the data obtained from Ukrainian intelligence was confirmed - Russia really prepared forceful actions with the involvement of saboteurs from the Russian Federation, Belarus, Serbia and Montenegro. "The plan [of Russia] for the future provides diversions with the involvement of people with military training disguised as civilians, for violent actions, attacks on state buildings and hostage seizure," Sandu said.
