One of Europe’s most modest countries is becoming a major center of conflict. Russia is targeting the small-but-strategic lands of Moldova as the next big front in its war on Ukraine.
While Washington is focused on the fight for eastern Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin could snatch a victory in Moldova.
The White House revealed over the weekend that US intelligence shows Russia plans to organize protests in Moldova with the goal of overthrowing the pro-Western government.
The Kremlin deployed similar hybrid-warfare tactics against Georgia in 2008 and Ukraine in 2014 and 2022.
Indeed, the Kremlin has been on a mission to sow political mayhem in Moldova for months.
