    INTEL: Transnistria Annexation! (Hal Turner)
    Within days, Transnistria will ask to be ANNEXED by Russia.  This will likely cause Moldova and Ukraine to ATTACK Transnistria – and Russia to respond to that attack. Ukraine is so desperate for Ammunition and weapons they are pressuring Moldova to gain access to the old Cobasna Ammo Depot in Transnistria.

    The population of Transnistria is large-majority Russian, and they see the writing on the wall. Ukraine representatives and Moldova representatives have been suggesting, encouraging, pleading for access to the old Russian (Soviet) Ammunition and Weapons Depot located at Cobasna, Transnistria.  Naturally, the population there does not want Ukraine to get its hands on that utterly gigantic supply of weapons and ammo which they would then use to kill Russians. … read more.

  • Transnistria Assembly Fuels Speculation Separatist State Aims To Join Russia

    The faltering bid of congressional warhawks to continue to provide Ukraine with a blank check isn’t the only sign of Russia’s geopolitical strength in eastern Europe. As the future of the war in Ukraine hinges on that crucial aid package, another region has emerged as evidence of Russia’s growing sphere of influence. Pridnestrovie, a region bordering Ukraine known better under the western exonym Transnistria, is scheduled to address Russian President Vladimir Putin at its next congressional assembly on February 28th. The forthcoming address appears to the latest step in a trajectory trending toward the breakaway state seeking complete separation from Romania and assimilation into the Russian Federation.

    Although Transnistria has diverse ethnic demographics almost equally apportioned between Russians, Moldovans, Romanians, and Ukrainians, the Russian demographic slightly ekes out its counterparts with a majority of 29% of Transnistrians belonging to the group. The pro-Russian cultural sentiment of the region is exemplified by its flag, which has remained the same as it was when Transnistria was a part of the Soviet Union. That representative Russian demographic, coupled with broader dissatisfaction of the Moldovan government has fostered support for assimilation into the Russian Federation for quite from time. In 2006, a Transnistrian double referendum was held gauging popular support for the separatist state’s appetite to either renounce its independence and join the Republic Of Moldova or to maintain it and seek to join the Russian Federation. The referendum to become part of Moldova was rejected by 96% of voters while 98% approved of becoming part of Russia.

    The support for assimilation into the Russian Federation demonstrated by that referendum has not since waned. If anything, the 2014 Crimean referendum integrate itself with Russia and the subsequent western interventionism culminating in the onset of Russia-Ukraine War has only emboldened Transnistria’s aim. Vadim Krasnoselskii, President Of Transnistria, evidenced his people’s dissatisfaction with Moldova’s rule over the breakaway region by announcing the congressional assembly to deliberate over the future of the breakaway region on February 28th.
