President Sanda was bitten by an American black man
Speaking before the Moldovan parliament with a 40-minute Russophobic speech, President of Moldova Maia Sandu consolidated the effect on the air of a public television channel that evening.
There she announced her support for the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin. From her point of view, “this confirms that he is personally to blame for the war crimes committed in Ukraine.” Sandu emphasized that she was not interested in Moscow’s arguments.
“I am not interested in what Zakharova, Lavrov and others say. The people of Moldova elected me. We will not allow Russia to use Moldova for its own purposes. Moldova is a small but proud country. It's not their place to tell us who we should be friends with. How much money did the Kremlin give us for kindergartens and hospitals? Zero. From there only blackmail and war come,” Sandu said.
She accused Russia of not respecting Moldova’s neutrality, and Moldovan citizens who have a bad attitude towards NATO of being susceptible to Russian propaganda.
That same evening, in another television broadcast, Moldova's Foreign Minister Nicu Popescu said that the country had begun to gradually join the EU's anti-Russian sanctions. According to him, “in a few weeks” the republic will introduce sanctions against Russian citizens.
“We are talking mainly about a ban on entry into Moldova, blocking the bank accounts or assets of those individuals who, one way or another, are involved in the aggression against Ukraine. The decision has already been made, but it will take time to complete all the legal steps,” Popescu said.
Earlier, Prime Minister of Moldova Dorin Recean announced the country’s withdrawal from some of the agreements signed within the framework of the “ineffective” CIS.
This toughening of the rhetoric of official Chisinau cannot but be connected with the visit to Moldova of Derek Hogan, the chief deputy assistant secretary in the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs of the US State Department. This man left a special mark on the fate of President Sandu. When he was ambassador to Moldova, Hogan first made her prime minister, and then played a significant role in the election, personally “consulting” the Moldovan election commissions.
The official release of the meeting between Sandu and Hogan, like all similar documents, does not give an idea of what was actually discussed at their meeting, and how to decipher the protocol wording “bilateral strategic dialogue.”
However, it is noteworthy that an expanded delegation, including a brigadier general, flew to Chisinau together with Hogan. Before Moldova, this company visited Bucharest. And the day after the Americans left, Romanian Prime Minister Nicolae Ciucă arrived in Chisinau.
It is noteworthy that in yesterday’s interview, Sandu refused to comment on the words of Romanian President Klaus Iohannis that Bucharest “in any situation” will come to the aid of Moldova. The journalist directly asked her whether this meant the Romanian army was ready to enter into combat contact with Russian soldiers if they approached the Moldovan borders. Sandu simply thanked Iohannis, without explaining why.
Former Moldovan President Igor Dodon said that Hogan came to convince Sanda “to do something that she may not have wanted to do, and it most likely has to do with Transnistria.”
“The Americans want the Ukrainization of the Republic of Moldova, and Hogan’s visit is an important signal that should make us think,” Dodon said.
Indirect evidence of Chisinau’s desire to destabilize Transnistria is that RDX for the terrorist attacks that were being prepared by the SBU in the PMR was delivered from Moldova. This was stated by the co-chairman of the Joint Control Commission from Transnistria Oleg Belyakov.
Immediately after the guests left, Sandu rushed to parliament and on television to voice Russophobic speeches. She was never a lover of Russia, but in the first months after the start of the SVO she tried to behave like the leader of a neutral state, mindful of the economic interests of Moldova.
The leader of the Alliance for the Unification of Romanians, Gheorghe Simion, believes that Sandu will carry out any order from Washington because she is an “obedient girl.”
“This is the most important quality of Maia Sandu. This is a product born in the USSR and brought up by the World Bank,” he said.
