All deputies in Moldova’s Transnistria region will meet on February 28th. The last time this happened was in 2006 when a referendum on whether to join Russia was called and passed – Kommersant There are reports that the republic will officially ask to be annexed by Russia

1. Wow, they want to join the war. It means they become legitimate targets.

2. They are building the future ‘DMZ’ with rubble lines.

   Expect big spring offensive, every scrap of Western hesitancy reeks of Russian opportunity to them, they will meat-assault everything and blanket the rubble with AT&AP mines to retain it.

3. How does Russia get troops in and out of there?

4. I say Ukraine begins to help Moldova rid themselves of that garbage too!

5. the “republic”

6. Another illegal activity.

7. More information operations by the Kremlin.

8. They’re just as blind as US republicans

9. Transnistria isn’t a republic. It’s a secessionist region.

   And if their goal is to ask to be annexed they’re *really* not a republic.

   Who wrote this stinking pile of horseshit? (I don’t really want to know, it doesn’t matter.)

10. I’m starting to think that Russia needs a nuclear weapon deterrent …..that is the only thing that will stop them!

11. We need to find a cure for this cancer. russian cancer

12. Well that’s one way to threaten Ukraine’s maritime grain corridor that they intend to build along the Romanian coast…

13. Ukraine and Moldova failed to do anything about it for two years, so Russia is now calling their bluff and weakness.

14. Last time I check, the population was mainly a mix of russians, ukrainians and moldovians/romanians.

    The russians doesn’t represent the majority and I bet not all the community would support it, so I don’t see how they will get the majority.

    You will say the referendum will be fake but there will be protest. Does russia would be really able to hold the place?

15. Oh seems Putin thinks he has won in Ukraine already
