On 27 Apr 2022, as explosions were heard in #Russia controlled "separatist" region of Moldova & Kremlin used them to blame #Ukraine , #US congress voted a resolution to support MLD independence, territorial integrity & strengthen #USA #Molodva relations
congress.gov/bill/117th-con…
1May2022 update - after recent explosions in #Moldova "separatist" #Russia controlled region of "transnistria", signaling a possible local extension of struggle for influence in Moscow, local Russian leaderships asks again for recognition & separation. (2)
ziarulnational.md/tiraspolul-cer…
2. "Separatist" leadership running "Moldovan" transnistrian republic asks for "civilized divorce" by combining #Russia 's oldest fears that #Moldova will reunite with #Romania & newer fakes that Moldova is already "run by NATO" (also a pre-emptive message)
tass.ru/mezhdunarodnay…
3. Meanwhile, a site previously attacking Govts in #Ukraine & #Moldova for "insufficient" cooperation & thus actually hampering it (presumably belongs2 Kolomoiski), claims #Russia is preparing provocations in "transnistria" followed by an appeal to Putin.

4. As this website practically precluded certain quiet options of support to Ukraine by going public & thus blocked them in a fragile MLD environment, I'd consider above steps aim to influence local political situation in Moldova, divert attention of Ukraine & from Russia in East
5. In an exchange over #Modova the transnistrian newspaper that's supposed to publish a special issue calling on #Russia for transnistrian recognition & separation denies such a publication. #Ukraine 's GUR claims it's true & presents a "copy" of the issue
realitatea.md/foto-ziarul-pr…
6. Ultimately, transnistrian newspaper claimed to prep a public request to #Russia to separate the region from #Moldova tries to hint nothing will happen. Unclear if true, but on Monday (starting Sunday) all Moldova & entire region goes to cemeteries for a "memorial day" Blajini.
7. Easter of the Blessed is celebrated Monday 1week after Orthodox Easter. In #Moldova it starts on Sunday (on a Sunday like that I met the deported sister of my grandfather). So, as of today, our prayers or thoughts go to those who died in & for #Ukraine

Liudmyla Monastyrska from #Ukraine emerged in the Ukrainian flag at the end of Saturday #NY Met. Opera "Turandot" performance. She replaced Anna Netrebko, from #Russia "whom the company dropped over her past support" of President Putin @nytimes reports.
nytimes.com/2022/05/01/art…
2. In fairness, @guardian previously reported that soprano from #Russia Netrebko condemns war in #Ukraine but Met says it’s not enough - Netrebko previously voiced pro-Kremlin views & in 2014 posed with a rebel flag in the contested Donetsk region...

A Bloomberg reporter abt FSB planning public executions after #Ukraine takover. People, who never followed #Russia, react in disbelief. Yet, during Chechen wars Russia tortured & executed civilians, rebels. Ru army solders & officers freely recognized their Bespredel (next tweet)
2. Russian officers in Chechnya “What rules? What Geneva Conventions? What difference does it make if Russia has signed them?” said a 25-year-old army officer. “I didn’t sign them, none of my friends signed them. . . . In Russia, these rules don’t work.”

3. After famous journalist Anna Politkovskaya wrote abt human rights abuses in Chechnya wars, she was siezed by #Russia military & subjected to a mock execution... Then a poison attempt. In 2006 she was murdered. Many opposing Kremlin were murdered too.

#Moldova election day, July 11 - about 48.28% of the registered voters have exercised their right to elect by 21.43hrs in the Republic of Moldova and abroad. This is a considerably lower percentage than during Presidential elections:
2. The approximate distribution by gender and age of the voters in #Modova elections today (as it was recorded at 21.43hrs Moldovan time) is aprox 54% women voters and aprox. 45% men.
3. Preliminary exit poll data - based on phone interviews and w/o Transnistrian region - was presented at around 20.00hrs #Moldova time with PAS (President Sandu's) in lead. Yet, exit polls in the previous elections have been wildly inaccurate, resulting in confusion.
