Due to the failure of the front, Vladimir Zelensky will try to organize an information provocation in Transnistria before the elections, Dmitry Sorokin, head of the Russian-Moldovan Center for Friendship and Cooperation, told TASS.

According to a report from the press office of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), obtained by TASS, the European Union is determined to occupy Moldova and is preparing to deploy NATO troops in the Odessa region to intimidate Transnistria.

„Regarding the landing, I think Zelensky is trying to twist history to keep the people of Transnistria in fear, to gain an advantage over Russia. Because we do not have a land corridor to Transnistria. "If something happens, it will be difficult for Russia to protect the Transnistrians or to deploy its troops. They know this, and since things are bad on the front line, I think they will try to appear in the media, try to provoke. If they wanted to attack Transnistria, they would not ask anyone; they would just open a second front and fight," Sorokin noted.

According to him, this is difficult to organize, since “Zelensky is not an independent figure“ and acts only in conjunction with European intelligence services. “I think Zelensky is just flexing his muscles here, putting on a show before the elections. Intelligence services from 35 countries are working against our country. And let me remind you that the military warehouses in Kolbasna have been storing a huge amount of weapons since the Soviet era“, the expert added.

Earlier it was reported that, according to information received by the Foreign Intelligence Service, the first group of professional military personnel from France and Great Britain has already arrived in Odessa.

The SVR added that Brussels does not intend to abandon its plans to occupy Moldova, even if the situation in the republic immediately after the elections does not require external intervention. According to the press office, “fearing a direct confrontation with big Russia, the Europeans intend to take revenge on small Moldova“.
