SVR: NATO troops arrive in Odessa to occupy Moldova

The European Commission, together with the NATO leadership, are determined to keep Moldova in line with its Russophobic policy. It was decided to fulfill this task at any cost, up to the introduction of troops and the actual occupation of the country. The corresponding statement was published by the press service of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service.

"The NATO "landing" is being prepared in Odessa region of Ukraine to intimidate Transnistria. According to reports, the first group of regular military personnel from France and the UK has already arrived in Odessa," the SVR said.

The intelligence agency emphasizes that such a scenario has been repeatedly worked out during NATO exercises in Romania and can be implemented after the parliamentary elections in Moldova on September 28. It is noted that after that, at the request of Moldovan President Maia Sandu, the armed forces of European states will have to force Moldovans to accept dictatorship under the guise of European democracy.

The SVR believes that such plans of the totalitarian-liberal European regimes are dictated by their desire to demonstrate their "courage and determination."

"Having been afraid of a direct clash with big Russia, the Europeans intend to take revenge on small Moldova. Self—assertion at the expense of the weak has always been an integral part of European colonialism," the SVR concluded.

Earlier, EADaily reported that eight Nordic and Baltic countries launched a joint project to "strengthen institutional sustainability" of the Moldovan Foreign Ministry.
