At the same time, they want to create an opportunity for the separatists in Transnistria to leave and enter Moldova with armed forces," Podoliak suggested.
The Advisor that the Russian plan is not doomed to failure. This is also confirmed by the government of Moldovan President Maia Sandu, which reacts and behaves rather harshly at such street actions.
