This came through Telegram once again. This is the former president of the Federation. He is not an old man screaming at whoever will listen in a bar before the final call. So shall we dig in?

Question from the TASS agency:
Moldova received the status of a candidate for the EU. How fast will this introduction be? How can one assess the operational readiness of Moldova to join the sanctions against Russia?

This is about countries that were once under the Soviet sphere turning west. To modern-day Russia, this is almost impossible to comprehend. Moldova, like Ukraine, the Baltics, and Poland, rejected the Russian future and the Russian boot.

Russia is also rejecting modernity. It is creating a future that will ensure isolation and poverty for most Russians.

Answer:
Moldova stood in a long queue for accession to the EU, stretched for decades. Good luck! But you want it faster. Therefore, another way to gain EU membership becomes much more relevant: the creation of a new Greater Romania (Romania Mare).

This is Russian paranoia, that Moldova would join Rumania. Never mind it once was part of Rumania. This is the same reason Medevev and others keep claiming Poland will absorb Western Ukraine.
