🇪🇺🇺🇸🇺🇦The EU will not be able to replace American aid to Ukraine, writes The Wall Street Journal, citing European officials.

“High-ranking European officials stated that US assistance is vital to Ukraine, and in the region (Europe) they cannot replace American funding and military equipment,” the publication writes.

Europe has announced its intention to continue supporting Kyiv in the coming months, even as aid from the United States is reduced.

According to European officials, the main thing for them is that Ukraine remains intact until the US elections in November 2024.

🇲🇩 Maria Zakharova on the ongoing pumping of Moldova with Western weapons

❔Question: On November 15, another batch of German “Piranha” armored personnel carriers arrived in Moldova. How could you comment on the ongoing militarization of Moldova?

💬This is far from the only example of the consistent pumping of Moldova with Western weapons. <...>

At the same time, the construction of a new military base in the village of Bacioi, near Chisinau, continues. According to the Moldovan press, $6.7 million has been allocated for these purposes.

In general, Moldova’s state budget expenditures on defense this year increased by 68% to $89 million. The recently published draft National Security Strategy, which identifies Russia as the “primary existential threat,” proposes further increases in funding for the defense and security sector. It is obvious that all this is being done to the detriment of the socio-economic development of the republic.

The leadership of Moldova is consistently seeking to erode and abolish the country’s neutral status enshrined in its Constitution, and does not cease to complain that the majority of Moldovans do not agree with this.

All this is perceived with great concern in Transnistria, whose residents know from their own bitter experience what Chisinau’s militaristic games can lead to.

❗️️ We have repeatedly drawn attention to the destructiveness of such a course, which has nothing to do with ensuring the security of Moldova and its citizens. It is based on the plans of Western sponsors to transform the republic into a logistics appendage of NATO, which is actively developing Moldovan territory.

☝️ The people of Moldova see this and oppose rapprochement with the North Atlantic Alliance, understanding its aggressive and destructive nature. Moldovans associate their own security and well-being with maintaining neutrality, which implies a balanced foreign policy and maintaining good neighborly relations with other states, including Russia.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Dmitry Medvedev on X/Twitter:

💬 The head of Ukrobanderostan has said that Russia is getting ready to launch an operation called “Maidan 3” in Kiev, aimed at overthrowing him.

Hell… Upset the cart. Exposed the plan. Everything was otherwise ready: the right people, tons of weapons, and Russian prankers calling the fleet-footed grandma Nuland to cook pies for maidaners.

Will have to adjust the groundwork now.

P.S. Remarkably, the very name of Russians’ cunning scheme, “Maidan 3”, shows that Kiev has admitted that the first two maidans were nothing but coups. And all the talks about the legitimate will of the people is nothing but bullshit.
