"If you look at it objectively...": the DIU says whether there is a threat to Ukraine from Transnistria

Ukraine currently faces no threat from the territory of unrecognized Transnistria. At least not a serious one, if we look at it objectively.

This opinion was expressed by Andriy Yusov, a representative of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine, during a telethon. At the same time, he noted that the border is being strengthened in all directions, including the southern one.

"If we look objectively at the enemy's forces and means on the territory of the unrecognized republic, we cannot talk about serious threats. Most of the information, military and political provocations planned by the enemy against the PMR were not supported even within this entity and, accordingly, were not implemented," the DIU representative noted.

Yusov recalled that recently "there was an information wave that the PMR was about to ask to join Russia. Then the DIU and the official Chisinau said that this was not true, that it was a provocation." He added that "that's what happened," and the conversation went no further.

Earlier, ISW pointed out that Russia has launched its "hybrid operations" in Moldova. In particular, the Kremlin wants to use Transnistria and Gagauzia for its own purposes.

It was also reported that at the end of February this year, "Transnistria" asked Russia for "protection" from Moldova . In particular, the so-called deputies at the congress complained about the "economic blockade" by Moldova and approved a declaration asking the Kremlin for help.

A few days later, Moscow began to shake another region of Moldova. We are talking about the Gagauzia autonomy, whose leader has since traveled to Moscow several times to meet, among others, with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin.

Among other things, she said that Gagauzia would declare its independence if Moldova decides to unite with Romania, and also announced the launch of cards of the Russian payment system Mir on the territory of the autonomy.
