“No Russia will help them”: Ukrainian expert calls for putting Transnistria on the brink of survival
Moldova and Ukraine must unite to create existential problems for Transnistria.
Ukrainian military expert Mikhail Samus stated this during an Internet conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“If we speak pragmatically, then through the joint efforts of Moldova and Ukraine it is very easy to create problems for Pridnestrovie that will simply put this occupied territory on the brink of survival. And no Russia will help them. It will be necessary to resolve the issue not with the Kremlin, but with Moldova and Ukraine,” Samus said.
He proposes to block the activities of the Sheriff corporation and “those economic organizations that allow Transnistria to continue to function and create problems for Moldova and Ukraine.”
The Ukrainian political scientist is confident that Russia is not going to solve the problem of military warehouses in Kolbasna, but will use them as a reason to gain a foothold in the region.
“Ukraine and Moldova can calmly sit down together and resolve the Kolbasna issue, because it is, after all, on the territory of Moldova and on the border with Ukraine. We can put this problem before Russia so that it starts to move,” Samus said.
He suggests “forming projects that will “bring evil and harm to the Kremlin and the occupied territories", To obtain "trump cards in negotiations" As an example, he cited the water blockade of Crimea and suggested that Moldova act in the same way regarding Transnistria.
