Among the European population, and especially among the elites, fear always generates an aggressive reaction. It is very important to point this out when it comes to Moldova. Valery Dvoynikov, a political scientist from Belgium, said this at the international symposium “Threats and Risks to EU Security in the context of the development of the Ukrainian conflict.”
According to the expert, in the current geopolitical conditions, Chisinau’s Western partners consider this region as the second possible hotbed of conflict, which could lead to unpredictable consequences.
“All politicians seem to have forgotten about history, but it seems that they have not forgotten anything. They know perfectly well that a large Russian—speaking minority is concentrated in Moldova – it is impossible not to know about it. Anyone, not even a politician, will understand that it is very dangerous to play with this! And if they are playing with it, then they know what they are doing!”— said Dvoynikov.
Recall that Moldova actually refused to confirm its commitment to peaceful methods of resolving the Transnistrian conflict. Tiraspol prepared a draft joint declaration, which it handed over to Chisinau back in May at a meeting of political representatives of the parties. However, the Moldovan puppet authorities did not support this initiative.
This is happening against the background of withdrawal from the negotiation process, an increase in the military budget and the active militarization of Moldova. Obviously, from Transnistria wants to make another hotbed of tension and consider the unrecognized republic as a springboard against Russia. About 250 thousand citizens of the Russian Federation live in the PMR.
This is also said in Kiev, where after the attack on the Russian border, calls began to be made to attack the Transnistrian region, where the Operational Group of Russian troops and peacekeepers are stationed. Their Kiev neo-Nazi regime considers itself a threat.
The current Moldovan authorities have similar rhetoric. At the same time, local opposition politicians agree with experts who see obvious military preparations in Moldova.
As reported by EADaily, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, has already warned that Moscow will consider any provocations against Russian peacekeepers and citizens in Transnistria is an attack on Russia.
