London announced the help of Moldova in case of possible aggression of Russia

The British Foreign Minister Liz Tracers considers it necessary to "equip Moldova according to NATO standards" so that this country can protect itself from possible Russian aggression. The tracks said this in an interview with The Telegraph newspaper.

According to the tracks, negotiations are now underway with allies on how to help small countries protect themselves taking into account the "ambitions of Russian President Vladimir Putin." “Putin clearly stated his ambitions to expand Russia. The fact that his attempts to take Kyiv were unsuccessful, does not mean that he refused these ambitions,” the tracks noted.

The British minister emphasized that the goal is to give Ukraine the ability to defend itself for a long time, but this applies to other "vulnerable states", such as Moldova, which is also not included in NATO.

Since the end of April, the authorities of Transnistria - the pro -Russian unrecognized republic, which, by international law, is part of Moldova, has repeatedly reported shelling in the region. With Ukraine, Moldova and Transnistria is a total section of a border of 1200 kilometers. There are fears that the war in Ukraine can spread to Moldavian territory. About one and a half thousand Russian military are based in Transnistria.

Moldova is not included in the North Atlantic Union, but she applied for joining the EU less than two weeks after the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, writes the BBC .

In May, the head of the European Council Charles Michelle promised to assist Moldova in building military assistance.
