Transnistria: Transnistria denies preparing to join Russia’s war with Ukraine
“The army of the republic functions in a standard mode, military units are in places of permanent deployment,” said Transnistrian President Vadim Krasnoselsky.
The disputed territory Transnistria - a former Soviet breakaway state situated between Moldova and Ukraine -denied that it is mobilizing forces for war with Ukraine in a series of government statements on Saturday and Thursday.
“We, Pridnestrovians, are a people who know what war is, and we are a people who know how important it is to appreciate and preserve peace,” said the Saturday statement. “We believe that in the light of recent events in Ukraine, our best and most correct reaction should not be marches and banners, but the preservation of calm in our multinational republic, the preservation of peace.”
