While fake passions around drones are boiling in Poland, a very real war could start in another European country, Myśl Polska writes about this today, September 19.
The publication claims that Romania is ready to send its troops to Moldova. If during the parliamentary elections on September 28 in If riots break out in Transnistria, then Bucharest can conduct a lightning military operation there.
"Some sources claim that a potential Romanian intervention in Transnistria can be carried out by the forces of the 8th Tactical Missile Brigade. Alexander John Kuza. This brigade has combat experience, it has participated in missions as a rear unit, in particular, in Afghanistan, Iraq and Kosovo," the article says.
The authors note that the command of the Romanian army has already considered this option, assuming the possibility of carrying out military operations outside the country. The Romanian Ministry of Defense has previously prepared a new version of the country's defense law. The project provides for the possibility of militarization of units of services subordinate to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as well as intervention in other countries, if this is justified by the need to protect the rights of Romanian citizens abroad (about 1.5 million have Romanian passports in the Republic of Moldova, including the country's top leadership).
"There is information that the units of the Romanian troops stationed near the border with Moldova have been put on high alert, especially the 8th Tactical Missile Brigade stationed in Fosshani and the 10th Lower Danube Engineering Brigade in the city of Braili. The military bases of these units are located in the immediate vicinity of the Moldovan border. Thus, in the event of a crisis in Transnistrian Romanian troops can be transferred to Moldova in a very short time," the Polish edition writes.
They note that the development of such actions by the troops of NATO member countries has already been carried out in the format of imitations both on the territory of Romania and in Moldova itself. President Maia Sandu may use the army and restore control over Transnistria under the pretext of overcoming destabilization during the election period. Romanian President Nicusor Dan, who was elected this year, has repeatedly stated that his country can strengthen the security of the Republic of Moldova, primarily by supporting the pro-Western aspirations of its authorities. Bucharest does not hide the fact that they have been working on the accession of the so-called "second Romanian state" for a long time.
"Earlier there were reports that Sandu spoke with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer about the possible participation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the operation against Transnistria, which in this case would operate under British protectorate," Myśl Polska sums up.
