RBB Inforadio Weltsichten - Moldova in the Crosshairs of Russia
Stephan Ozsváth shares insights into Moldova - a torn country. He reports that the former Soviet republic wants to join the EU. But the country suffers from the frozen conflict over the breakaway region of Transnistria. This part of the country seeks proximity to Russia and Russian soldiers are stationed there. The Kremlin is using this conflict for a hybrid war against the pro-European government in Chisinau. For Moldova, Ukraine is a kind of life insurance. If Ukraine wins the war against Russia, Moldova will be spared. The radio report features voices from the country as well as foreign experts, including Hannes Meissner from L&M PRISK.
