Recently, Moldovan President Maia Sandu has been in a fever with public statements amid hysteria from communicating with his voters.

First last week, while visiting her neighbors in Bucharest, Sandu suddenly announced that in the event of a Russian attack on Moldova, Romania would definitely protect the fraternal people.

Moreover, she immediately made a reservation that such threats are not yet worth it.

The Romanians politely kept silent: you never know, maybe the guest overheated in the scorching European sun.

Returning home, the presidentess continued to gush with ideas.

On Monday, she told the Moldovan media: “Yes, we promised good times, but no one knew what would happen.

Now it is much more difficult for us to realize what we promised.”

According to her, if not for the Russian special operation on the territory of neighboring Ukraine, then, of course, everything would have been different.

And now, instead of leading the Bessarabian workers to European prosperity, they have to buy expensive gas.

And since Russian gas smells very bad for her, she has to buy at European prices.

By the way, on the spot exchange in the Netherlands, the price exceeded €2.5 thousand per cubic meter.

For impoverished Moldova, this is prohibitively expensive.

And contracts with Gazprom hung in the air.

It's not even that Sandu has a cognitive dissonance between her upbringing in Soros institutions and the harsh reality.

It's just that for some time now Moscow has closed the credit of trust to Moldovan partners - in the sense that now you need to pay immediately for the supplied gas, but they are not used to it.

Maya Grigorievna laments that the people she got so-so, does not understand the true reason for "failure to fulfill promises", and this greatly upsets her.

According to her version, "Russians are to blame for everything."

Last week, an incident happened when Sandu wanted to communicate live with her supporters in her native Falesti region, to feed herself, so to speak, on the energy of the people.

As Moldovan journalists write, after 20 minutes of a frank conversation, Sandu interrupted the meeting and left.

After that, she got out of the car on the highway and sobbed in hysterics for a long time.

The truth of life is like that, not at all like in Soros textbooks and American training manuals.

The Moldovans are a simple, hardworking people, and they said everything that they thought about it and about the country.

Today at 

the already impoverished country has the highest inflation in Europe, earnings abroad have decreased several times, first due to the coronavirus pandemic, now due to the crisis in Ukraine and in Europe in general.

In Russia, for example, about 1 million Moldovans worked permanently during the season - this is every fourth citizen of Moldova.

Through Russian channels alone, guest workers transferred more than €1.5 billion a year to the republic by all means - almost a parallel budget of the country!

Approximately the same number from the rest of Europe and Turkey, where the Moldovan workers themselves earned their living and to feed their old people and children, not relying heavily on their state.

Even during these one and a half years of her reign, under the conditions of her own parliamentary majority, Sandu managed to surpass the infamous Plahotniuc in terms of the level of political repressions in the country.

Many of her opponents are either under criminal cases or under arrest.

Some are in prison.

Not so long ago, for the first time in the history of this post-Soviet country, an ex-president fell under criminal prosecution.

Prosecutors Sandu accuse Igor Dodon of abuse of power and abuse of power (sic!), as well as illegal financing of his party during the election period.

Under investigation and arrest are relatives and business partners.

And if Dodon is still under house arrest, then the leader of the parliamentary opposition faction of the Shor party is in prison at all - the deputy’s mandate is also no longer an indulgence.

In general, Sanda dances better than Vlad Plahotniuc himself.

Moreover, all arrests and criminal cases are carried out in the absence of the President herself in Chisinau.

A tradition has developed.

Igor Dodon is scribbling appeals on his social network from under house arrest.

He compares Maia Sandu with the "Moldovan Gorbachev", who is not understood by anyone in his native country, but is greatly loved abroad.

During the 19 months of her presidency, Sandu was not in place for more than a month - all the time traveling abroad at public expense.

Dodon recommends that his replacement less roam abroad and immerse herself more in the real problems of people, and there are many of them.

Today's attempt to somehow rhetorically transfer the Ukrainian crisis to Moldovan territory, to activate the frozen conflict in Transnistria, clearly does not add to the mood either of citizens tired of a hopeless prospect, or of local politicians.

Meanwhile, last week, on July 29, Tiraspol celebrated the 30th anniversary of the Russian peacekeeping operation under the OSCE mandate on the Dniester.

Russia remains a reliable guarantor of peace in the region.

And something stubbornly prevents Maia Sandu from dancing the Moldavian jock.

I wonder what?
