The President of the Republic of Moldova, Maia Sandu, will deliver a speech “to all citizens of the country” today, starting at 19:00, the presidential administration in Chisinau reported, without specifying the topic. We will remind you that Maia Sandu has recently warned several times that the Republic of Moldova is in the field of view of Russia, which is trying to overthrow the pro-Western government in Chisinau, including by force.

The statements will be broadcast live on public television Moldova 1 and Radio Moldova, as well as on the official Facebook pages, the quoted source said.

On February 13, Maia Sandu for the first time accused Russia of preparing a coup in Chisinau. Maia Sandu spoke about Russia’s plans to remove power from Chisinau a few days after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced Moscow’s plan to destroy the Republic of Moldova.

• “The plan for the next period involves actions involving military-trained saboteurs, camouflaged in civilian clothes, who will carry out acts of violence, attack some government buildings and take hostages.
• By means of violent actions disguised as protests of the so-called opposition, a change of power in Chisinau will be forced.
• The documents received from our Ukrainian partners demonstrate high-quality documentation of the locations and logistical aspects of the organization of this subversive activity. The plan also envisages the use of people from outside the country for violent actions.
• For example, the materials contain instructions on the rules of entry to the Republic of Moldova for citizens of the Russian Federation, the Republic of Belarus, Serbia and Montenegro,” said Maya Sandu.

“Russia is trying to overthrow our government, we have evidence of this. He wants to use the Republic of Moldova as Belarus.”

At the end of March, Maia Sandu said that Russia is not giving up on the idea of ​​taking power in the Republic of Moldova and is using various means of hybrid warfare to install an obedient pro-Russian government in Chisinau.

• “There are attempts by the Russian Federation to undermine the government, to overthrow the government, and we have more evidence about this. Russia is trying to install a pro-Russian government in Chisinau so that it can use the Republic of Moldova, including against Ukraine, as it does in the case of Belarus.
• I have heard statements from the Kremlin that they will place nuclear weapons on the territory of Belarus. This is exactly what Russia wants in the case of the Republic of Moldova, only that today the Republic of Moldova has an independent government that works for the benefit of the citizens, and therefore cannot be used as a pro-Russian government. used,” said the President of the Republic of Moldova.

According to Maia Sandu, Russia does not give up the idea of ​​returning the Republic of Moldova to its sphere of influence and acts through pro-Russian politicians from Chisinau to destabilize the situation in the republic.

Maja Sandu assured that people who serve the interests of Russia will be identified, and for this it is necessary to strengthen the capacity of the Intelligence and Security Service (SIS).

A stern warning for Dodon’s party

On April 6, Maya Sandu warned that socialists would be held accountable if they acted against the state. She made these statements in the context of a visit to Moscow by a group of the Socialist Party (left, pro-Russia), which met with members of the ruling United Russia party, a formation that supports the Kremlin’s invasion of Ukraine.

Earlier, the Coalition Party for Unity and Welfare (KUB) from the Republic of Moldova requested an investigation into the cooperation of the Socialist Party of the Republic of Moldova (PSRM), the de facto leader of which is former pro-Russian President Ihor Dodon, from the party supporting Russian President Volodymyr Trokha.

On April 3, 2023, they held political consultations with the United Russia party, “which promoted, supported and sanctioned all war crimes against Ukraine.”
