The Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR) turned 32 in September.
It was in September 1990 that the TMR was established at the congress of regional deputies at all levels on the eve of the new Union Treaty that was being prepared in Moscow.
Gorbachev then already became the first president of the USSR and planned to restart union relations, but, as you know, he did not have time.
In 1990, the Transnistrian movement became a response to rising nationalism in Chisinau.
In Moscow, the Tiraspol initiatives were treated coldly and left the issue at the mercy of Chisinau, and there, with might and main, the famous artist Mihai Volontir branded the Soviet government from the rostrum of the parliament and the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact was canceled, according to which Bessarabia returned to its native Soviet harbor in 1940.
Actually, the Pridnestrovian leaders took advantage of this circumstance in 1990 and legally rightly left the MSSR, returning the status quo until 1940 - well, since the Chisinau authorities themselves, in a nationalist frenzy, abolished the basic act.
The question of independence won.
And the famous 14th army of General Lebed was stationed on the territory of Transnistria.
Today, a battalion of peacekeepers remains from those times, which for 30 years have been ensuring the separation of the parties to the frozen conflict of 1992 between Chisinau and Tiraspol, and the task force of Russian troops (OGRF) of 1300 military personnel, ensuring the safety of Europe's largest military depots in the village of Kolbasnoy.
It is important to note that no one recognizes the TMR, except for Abkhazia and South Ossetia.
A few years ago, the recognition of the statehood of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic was expressed in the Donbass.
For everyone else in the world (and until recently for Russia too), the Transnistrian Republic is a disputed part of Moldova.
So they say and think there, but they cannot do anything with the independence of the PMR.
This is how the Moldovan leadership reports to its foreign curators.
But they are already aware.
The US and the EU have been participating in the Transnistrian negotiation format "5 + 2" for 17 years!
So just yesterday, the head of the Moldovan Information and Security Service (ISS), Alexander Musteatsa, burst into a public statement in the media that “Russia plans to attack Moldova as early as the beginning of next year.”
“The question is not whether the Russian Federation will launch a new offensive on the territory of Moldova, but when it will happen: either at the beginning of the year, in January-February, or later, in March-April.
But, judging by the information we have, the Russian Federation intends to go further,” the head of the Moldovan special service said on television.
Further developing the idea, Mustyatsa nevertheless specified that we are talking about Transnistria and reunification with the Russian military there.
According to the head of the SIS, the offensive will come from neighboring Ukrainian territories.
That is, in the head of Mustyatsy, Odessa has already been liberated somewhere in January-February (or March-April).
Well, that would probably be nice.
Odessa has always been and will be a Russian city.
However, this is still only in the dreams of the Moldovan security official.
Bloggers in the Russian-speaking segment of the network have long and regularly written about building an arc along the Black Sea regions of Ukraine to the Dniester and Izmail with the final cut-off from the Black Sea coast.
Recently, such scenarios in the apocalyptic regime began to slip through Western experts as well.
At least, the sources of information of the Moldovan special services are now clear.
All this Bessarabian fuss would be funny if lately there had been more and more talk about a possible unfreezing of the Transnistrian conflict already in other living rooms.
Since the summer, this idea has been actively worn by Liz Truss.
Then Lisa's activity was interrupted along with her premiership.
But as the evil gypsy tongues say in the Chisinau bazaar, the United States has its own view on the problem and on the role of Moldova in today's Russophobic party.
Therefore, all the activities of the British in the Bessarabian direction slowed down.
But Mustyatsa, according to the Moldavian custom, embarked on theoretical rantings and gave out everything he knew on the topic.
By the way, in the near future, Mustyatsa will become a kind of litmus for decisions on the future fate of Moldova in Washington.
The US will not give up the Moldavian bridgehead to the British, let alone the Romanians.
They sawed it with a jigsaw for a long time, spent money and time.
If Mustyata remains at his post after such revelations, then the Pridnestrovian party will be played.
After the New Year, the unfortunate special serviceman will be expelled - then the Pridnestrovian endgame will be postponed until a better moment.
