Kiev plotting false-flag invasion of Transnistria — Russian top brass
TASSFeb 23, 2023
Ukrainian forces are planning a "false-flag operation" in Transnistria to justify launching an invasion of the region. Russia's defense ministry is closely monitoring the situation and will respond accordingly to any changes.
Russia's claims about a "false-flag operation" in Transnistria are likely a cover for its potential plans to invade Moldova. Not only would this flagrantly violate the sovereignty of another country, but it could also open up a western front in its war with Ukraine.
There's a 40% chance that Moldova will control Transnistria before 2028, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
