The situation echos events before US backed and supplied Georgian troops attacked Russian peace keepers in South Ossetia.

Perhaps the parties involved learned their lesson from Georgia? Those events lead to Georgians voting Saakashvili out of office, after which he became part of Ukraines government after the coup of 2014. After being kicked out of Ukraine, he is now serving prison time in Georgia for his corruption. Despite having a decidedly anti Russian regime in charge in Tbilisi, they worked hard to hold Saakashvili accountable. For a number of years he was stateless as he had been stripped of both his Ukrainian and Georgian citizenship.

“Any actions posing a threat to their security will be viewed, according to international law, as an attack against the Russian Federation.

The report of a Ukrainian military buildup along the country’s border with Transnistria was issued by the Russian Defense Ministry on Thursday.”


Similar movements occurred before the Georgian sneak attack.

The term “Peacekeeping troops” is a bit of a stretch… there was, after all, peace in Transnistria prior to Putin’s war in Ukraine.

Another idiot post from you.

Yes, there was peace there before the Ukraine SMO, as the Russian troops are stationed there per an agreement with Moldova going back to around 1992. If Moldova didn’t want them there, they shouldn’t have signed up for hosting them. They went there to stop the fighting that was occurring. Almost exactly the scenario as in South Ossetia.

Are you all caught up now? Let me know if there are more events from 30 years ago that you were oblivious to and I’ll fill you in.

lol, yeah, at this point, that's just silly.

Didnt the government of Moldova just discover a Russian coup attempt? Poor unjustly accused Russia---just innocently standing around with gasoline and matches. Pretty typical of the relatively unsophisticated Russian propaganda---they always accuse others of what they are in the middle of trying to do. Its rogue nation standard operating procedure 101.

The government of Moldova absolutely made that claim. And collected $300 million bucks from the US two days later.

They could call it a war, like the US does with its wars like Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Inherent Resolve, Operation Desert Shield, Operation Desert Storm, ad nauseam.

lol---Bless your little heart. Did the US also make up the Belrusian battle map Lukashenk appeared on TV with that showed Russian troops capturing Moldova back last Spring?

Western gifts to Moldova in just a year. Not including the tens of billions going back to the early 1990’s. Hmmm, money flowing to a corrupt country that lives off Western aid. Stop me if you’ve heard this one before.

There were the highlights, but it goes on and on and on and on. Moldova has no economy and lives off donation from the US, EU, and NATO.

And then there is the gangster ministate founded and propped up by Russia on Moldovan territory with Russian occupiers who have at times looked like they wanted to use Moldovan territory to attack Ukraine.

Moldova is trying hard to keep Russia from spreading their wars to Moldova.

Good thing they have the “little green peace-keeping soldiers” amassed on their border for protection.
