[00:00:30] Volodymyr Zelensky again and demanding his removal,
[00:00:33] in parallel with the announcement that Russian
[00:00:37] oil products will enter the American
[00:00:39] market. At the same time, security experts
[00:00:43] met this week in Chisinau,
[00:00:46] and the European Commission proposes a series of modifications that could
[00:00:50] facilitate the future
[00:01:10] this time not face to face, but a verbal dispute between
[00:01:13] Kyiv and Washington. We are witnessing a new episode of
[00:01:17] the Oval Office February 2025. Yes, it is a
[00:01:21] real war of declarations. We see social networks
[00:01:24] invaded by positions from both sides. We see how
[00:01:28] Russian propaganda manages to speculate this moment,
[00:01:32] it is still not clear what the American
[00:01:35] administration wants to achieve. President
[00:01:38] Trump mentioned that there would even be an energy truce
[00:01:42] between Moscow and Kyiv,
[00:01:45] a statement that Ukraine rejected. On
[00:01:49] the other hand, Moscow has a
[00:01:52] managed to suspicious silence, we know from sources on the ground that the Russian Federation
[00:01:56] has intensified efforts to...
[00:02:00] reoccupy some regions in the Donbas region
[00:02:03] recently liberated by Ukraine. We also see
[00:02:06] efforts to consolidate Black Sea security after
[00:02:09] the sinking of a number of ships in
[00:02:12] recent days. So it is clearly a world in
[00:02:15] constant change and it is very likely that President Trump
[00:02:19] will have another speech in a few days. The electoral pressure for November
[00:02:34] After a conversation between the presidents of the United States and Russia, the Washington
[00:02:38] administration temporarily authorized
[00:02:40] component in an attempt to deliveries of Russian diesel. The decision provoked criticism in Kyiv and
[00:02:43] Europe, where officials warn that revenues from fuel
[00:02:47] exports contribute to financing the war against
[00:02:49] Ukraine. The Moldova Security Forum
[00:02:52] 2026 reunited this week in Chisinau officials and experts
[00:02:56] from over 20 countries to analyze security risks generated by
[00:03:00] Russia's war against Ukraine. Violations of the airspace of
[00:03:03] the Republic of Moldova and hybrid threats have brought back into discussion
[00:03:07] the strengthening of national defense and cooperation with European partners and
[00:03:10] NATO. The European Commission has proposed new mechanisms to
[00:03:14] facilitate the enlargement of the European Union, including roadmaps for the Republic of
[00:03:17] Moldova and other candidate states. Through the new initiatives, Brussels wants to
[00:03:21] reduce the risk of political blockages and strengthen guarantees regarding compliance with
[00:03:25] European
[00:03:26] values.
[00:03:31] On Saturday, after a telephone conversation with the Kremlin leader
[00:03:34] Vladimir Putin, the White House leader Donald Trump announced
[00:03:37] that he would allow the delivery of Russian
[00:03:41] diesel. The decision was criticized both in Kyiv and in
[00:03:45] by the Russian occupation the American Congress, but also raised concerns, especially
[00:03:49] in Brussels. This controversy erupts
[00:03:53] just as efforts are being made to bring
[00:03:56] the three parties back to the negotiating table.
[00:04:00] In the meantime, Ukrainian cities are subjected to intense
[00:04:03] shelling by the Russian Federation, only this
[00:04:07] week dozens of people have lost
[00:04:11] their lives in those attacks carried
[00:04:14] out by Russian forces. What happened this week on
[00:04:18] the front and what does this diplomatic ballet of
[00:04:29] on Saturday with Russian President Vladimir Putin, American leader Donald Trump
[00:04:33] announced that Russia would supply diesel to the American and
[00:04:36] international market, and the United States Treasury temporarily authorized
[00:04:40] these exports until April next
[00:04:42] I think we are talking about year. Trump later publicly thanked Putin for the diesel
[00:04:45] deliveries, which he said would contribute to a rapid drop in fuel prices.
[00:05:05] Donald Trump is trying to lower gasoline and diesel prices before the midterm
[00:05:08] elections for Congress scheduled for November 3, but analysts estimate
[00:05:12] that Russian deliveries will not influence fuel prices, which are strongly
[00:05:16] affected by the conflict between the United States and Iran. Trump's announcement regarding
[00:05:19] the import of diesel from Russia came precisely during the negotiations in Miami,
[00:05:23] where American, Ukrainian and European representatives were discussing the end
[00:05:27] of the war, security guarantees and Ukraine's preparation for winter. In an
[00:05:31] audio message posted on social networks, the Ukrainian president criticized
[00:05:34] Washington's decision, stating that his negotiating team was
[00:05:38] used to mask the agreement between Putin and
[00:05:40] Trump. все йде на війну проти
[00:05:44] людей, проти України, проти всіх
[00:05:47] нас. Я вважаю, що нашу
[00:05:51] команду використовують просто як
[00:05:54] ширму, і це точно
[00:05:56] нечесно, це точно не по-партнерськи,
[00:06:00] і це, на мій погляд, слабке рішення, на
[00:06:04] жаль, на жаль, слабке рішення, сильних
[00:06:07] партнерів. Слава
[00:06:09] Україні.
[00:06:12] also provoked critical reactions in the American Congress. Democratic Senator Richard
[00:06:16] Blumenthal declared that the measure makes the United States complicit in Putin's
[00:06:20] war against Ukraine, accusing the American president's administration of
[00:06:23] weakening pressure on the Kremlin. In Brussels, the head
[00:06:26] of European Diplomacy Kaya Calas warned that additional revenues from
[00:06:30] diesel exports would help Russia finance the war and
[00:06:34] announced that on Monday, October 12, the foreign ministers of the European Union
[00:06:37] will approve new individual sanctions against over 1600
[00:06:41] individuals and entities from Russia. Against the background of new diplomatic controversies,
[00:06:45] Russia continued throughout the week aerial attacks on Ukrainian cities,
[00:06:48] causing civilian casualties. On October 5, shelling
[00:06:51] of the city of Kharkiv resulted in six deaths and
[00:06:55] approximately 60 injured, including children. In the east of the country, an
[00:06:58] aerial bomb exploded near buses, killing 30
[00:07:02] people. And a missile attack on the city of Priluki killed another
[00:07:06] 20 people, including children. The intensity of the air strikes did
[00:07:10] not decrease even after Trump's conversation with Putin. On the contrary, on Saturday, Russian
[00:07:14] air bombs hit the city of Zaporozhye, destroying part of an apartment
[00:07:17] building. The attacks resulted in at least 20 deaths, including three
[00:07:21] children. The Ukrainian president denounced the contrast between the relaxation
[00:07:25] of American sanctions and the continuation of the bombings, warning that any
[00:07:28] economic concession made to Moscow without concrete peace commitments, only
[00:07:32] prolongs the
[00:07:33] war.
[00:07:38] Mihai, what could be behind this decision by Donald Trump, especially regarding
[00:07:41] diesel? Yes, not many details are
[00:07:45] known to us apart from those we have seen on social networks. There is
[00:07:49] this electoral pressure, which I mentioned
[00:07:52] earlier. On November 3, the fate of the last
[00:07:56] two years of President Trump's second term is practically
[00:08:00] decided,
[00:08:02] the entire composition of the House of
[00:08:06] Representatives, a third of
[00:08:09] the American Senate, is practically put before the voters.
[00:08:12] Polls do not give President Trump
[00:08:15] very good chances to maintain control of both chambers, which could
[00:08:19] block him in the future from initiating any political
[00:08:23] economic strategy or of another
[00:08:26] nature. Let's not forget that in the United States presidential
[00:08:29] elections are also coming up. In two years, we are even witnessing an
[00:08:33] internal struggle between a series of contenders, such as Mr. Rubio
[00:08:36] or Mr. J.D. Vance, the Vice President of the United States.
[00:08:39] Probably other files were also discussed because the
[00:08:42] conflict, let's say, the new cold war between Moscow
[00:08:46] and Washington is not limited to the Ukrainian file, we also
[00:08:50] look at the Islamic Republic of Iran, we also look at other regions and of course
[00:08:54] we see President Trump's obsession with trying to
[00:08:58] place the entire blame for prices on Ukraine's shoulders,
[00:09:01] trying to willfully ignore
[00:09:04] developments in the Strait of Hormuz.
[00:09:08] Probably, probably in a few days President Trump will have new
[00:09:11] outbursts against President
[00:09:14] Zelensky, but as you mentioned at the beginning of the show,
[00:09:18] we can expect a new episode, perhaps not
[00:09:21] on such a large scale, but we can expect a new
[00:09:25] episode February 2025.
[00:09:27] President Trump's threat regarding cutting
[00:09:30] Ukrainians' access to sensitive
[00:09:33] information coming from American
[00:09:37] sources, including satellite data, can of course
[00:09:40] jeopardize Ukraine's ability to hold the front line.
[00:09:44] Uh, there are some analysts who already say, or some
[00:09:47] media outlets, which have already noted that Russia is escaping sanctions,
[00:09:51] is it true or what is the balance between American
[00:09:55] sanctions and European sanctions? Well, certainly,
[00:09:59] many leaders from other states, such as
[00:10:02] Indian Prime Minister Modi, are
[00:10:06] dissatisfied, given that India
[00:10:09] was subjected to harsh sanctions precisely because it purchased
[00:10:13] energy resources from the Russian Federation. It creates a
[00:10:17] dangerous precedent, even if from a financial
[00:10:20] point of view, these, these millions of tons that will enter
[00:10:26] the American market, if we were to believe
[00:10:29] what was agreed upon, would not have a significant impact
[00:10:33] on the war economy of the Russian Federation,
[00:10:37] given that payments are to be made through
[00:10:40] various methods that will bring
[00:10:44] these funds with delay into the war coffers of the Russian Federation,
[00:10:47] but at the same time it creates a dangerous precedent, other states, including from
[00:10:51] the global south, will no longer, will no longer...
[00:10:56] pay much attention to these types of sanctions. Tomorrow we are
[00:11:00] to have a new meeting of European foreign ministers
[00:11:03] for the imposition of new sanction packages against states
[00:11:07] against the Russian Federation, and it is likely that we will see some
[00:11:11] spectacular developments due to the appearance of
[00:11:15] statements in this regard coming either from
[00:11:37] Donald Trump addressed to President Zelensky,
[00:11:41] this request to be replaced. Please
[00:11:45] tell us what is behind this attack and if
[00:11:48] Donald Trump could reverse this decision.
[00:11:51] I think that ultimately we are talking
[00:11:56] about the fact that starting with
[00:12:00] the invitation of the Russian Federation to rejoin
[00:12:04] the G20 discussions, because ultimately
[00:12:07] the United States now holds the G20 presidency
[00:12:11] in Miami, that was a first
[00:12:15] moment when we saw that the United States
[00:12:18] wants, under Donald Trump's presidency
[00:12:22] at the moment and even more so as
[00:12:26] we head into the midterm
[00:12:29] elections, to have a bilateral
[00:12:33] relationship with the Russian Federation in which
[00:12:36] the Ukrainian file is
[00:12:38] just one file, but it is
[00:12:42] not the one that influences the economic
[00:12:45] course of discussions between the two
[00:12:48] great powers. I
[00:12:51] think we have seen, in
[00:12:55] many cases, Donald Trump's personality
[00:12:59] manifest itself on the social
[00:13:02] network Truth Social in such
[00:13:06] a way that he has a tendency to
[00:13:09] grandly announce certain
[00:13:13] deals before they are
[00:13:16] finalized in a fairly rigorous timeframe, and we have also seen
[00:13:19] this deal
[00:13:22] with,
[00:13:25] a truce on what the energy
[00:13:29] component means, announced by Donald Trump and
[00:13:33] after Zelensky said: "But we
[00:13:37] didn't hear about this truce." So practically
[00:13:40] Trump made
[00:13:44] things happen without consulting
[00:13:47] , without having an agreement with
[00:13:50] the cards, but by announcing publicly , putting pressure on
[00:13:53] Zelensky.
[00:13:57] "We already know that in Trump's vision,
[00:14:00] Zelensky, the relationship,
[00:14:03] relations with leaders are conducted
[00:14:06] bilaterally, not trilaterally,
[00:14:09] so I think we need to
[00:14:12] read this not only in
[00:14:15] the perspective of the midterm elections, but also in Trump's bilateral
[00:14:19] style of conducting negotiations, but many, many
[00:14:22] issues remain
[00:14:26] in question, for example, and
[00:14:29] here we have voices from the Ukrainian side that
[00:14:33] said that ultimately they agree with this energy truce,
[00:14:37] especially since it will be a harsh winter for everyone
[00:14:40] , not just for Ukraine or not just
[00:14:44] for Russia but for the entire region, they
[00:14:48] agree, but the following questions remain: under
[00:14:51] what conditions will this truce be, what
[00:14:55] does it involve, when does it start and who will
[00:14:58] monitor it, because it wouldn't be the first time that
[00:15:01] Trump and the American side
[00:15:03] announce a peace
[00:15:06] deal and things are much
[00:15:10] more complicated on the ground. Yes, because you
[00:15:13] already mentioned this announcement about this truce, the Ukrainian
[00:15:16] side says they don't know when it starts,
[00:15:20] we don't see any reaction from the Russian Federation. Don't you think
[00:15:23] it's more or to whom did Donald Trump address
[00:15:27] first to stop the attacks on energy
[00:15:31] infrastructure, is this address more focused on
[00:15:34] Vladimir Putin or on Volodymyr Zelensky?
[00:15:38] To both, but I don't think
[00:15:41] I would put too much,
[00:15:45] how can I say, I don't think it's about a chess game
[00:15:48] behind this announcement, I think it's just his
[00:15:52] style to put pressure on the parties,
[00:15:56] but, as we know, both
[00:15:59] Ukraine can now have
[00:16:03] this capability, being very...
[00:16:06] well trained,
[00:16:08] and almost some regional leaders when
[00:16:12] it comes to drones,
[00:16:14] as well as the Russian Federation, which ultimately
[00:16:18] has no interest, as I see things,
[00:16:22] in giving Ukraine a peaceful winter
[00:16:25] or Trump a victory in
[00:16:28] the midterm elections and I think it addresses
[00:16:32] the American electorate,
[00:16:35] both parties that will go in uh in
[00:16:39] elections, it's quite interesting that
[00:16:42] very quickly two
[00:16:45] Republican congressmen mobilized
[00:16:47] , it's about a Republican from
[00:16:50] Pennsylvania where we have a very large
[00:16:53] Polish minority, by the way Zelensky is expected
[00:16:57] today, he is expected tomorrow to address
[00:17:00] the security conference in Warsaw, I
[00:17:03] saw Zelensky calling
[00:17:08] Alexander Stubb and Secretary General Mark Rutte in
[00:17:12] the hope that this truce
[00:17:15] will indeed materialize, because I think Ukrainians
[00:17:18] really want it, but they are skeptical, because it's not the first
[00:17:22] time that Trump says he will mediate peace
[00:17:26] agreements and he hasn't
[00:17:30] do so, so I think he addresses, to
[00:17:34] answer your question, both the parties involved
[00:17:37] in the war and his own
[00:17:41] electorate. Ms. Pup, returning to this decision
[00:17:44] to temporarily deliver
[00:17:46] diesel, especially by the Russian
[00:17:50] Federation. You spoke at the beginning of your
[00:17:53] intervention about signals that Donald
[00:17:56] Trump is sending. Returning to the topic of diesel,
[00:17:59] do you think it's more of an economic component that Donald
[00:18:03] Trump needs at this moment, or
[00:18:06] is it a new series of signals that
[00:18:09] he wants to send to the Kremlin, Brussels,
[00:18:12] Kyiv. I think it's an economic
[00:18:17] reduce
[00:18:21] the cost of
[00:18:23] Americans' bills,
[00:18:26] because, although, as Mihai
[00:18:30] said, ultimately it's
[00:18:34] too soon to see that this
[00:18:38] deal would produce a
[00:18:40] change
[00:18:43] at the pump, ultimately the elections are in
[00:18:46] 25 days, so it's a race against time, but I think
[00:18:50] we see a
[00:18:52] president in the White House who is trying to do
[00:18:56] everything in his power to win the
[00:19:00] elections and that
[00:19:03] between him and
[00:19:05] his legacy is
[00:19:09] the inflation that the average American feels
[00:19:13] , whether he is a voter from a
[00:19:16] red state or a blue state, Democrat or
[00:19:19] Republican, ultimately many are
[00:19:23] tempted to vote according to
[00:19:26] their living conditions, according to internal problems, and I think in
[00:19:30] this economic logic we see
[00:19:33] Trump's discussion not only with Russia but also with
[00:19:37] other states. Ms.
[00:19:40] Pup, tell us, please, there are some opinions of some
[00:19:44] economists who say that through this so-called
[00:19:48] temporary weakening of sanctions against the Russian
[00:19:51] Federation, the Trump administration would also try
[00:19:54] to pull the economic component from the Russian
[00:19:58] Federation to its side, which could put pressure on
[00:20:02] the Kremlin. Does this theory have
[00:20:04] a right to exist or are we just talking about
[00:20:08] political and geopolitical logic in the relationship between
[00:20:11] Washington and
[00:20:17] Moscow? I think
[00:20:20] a political logic in
[00:20:23] the first place, I don't think we are talking
[00:20:27] so much about
[00:20:29] Trump's desire to
[00:20:33] end the war to enter the race
[00:20:37] for the Nobel Prize again, as it
[00:20:40] was another topic of discussion these
[00:20:43] days. I don't think it's about that anymore,
[00:20:47] I think it's just about ensuring
[00:20:50] that he has a track record at
[00:20:53] the end of his term, and
[00:20:56] obviously, we saw more discussions
[00:21:00] in Miami, discussions held
[00:21:03] by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff
[00:21:07] when they were in Moscow and then in Ukraine to
[00:21:11] create new levers of economic
[00:21:14] cooperation between the U.S. and the Russian Federation, I think
[00:21:18] it's worth seeing. Let's keep an eye on
[00:21:21] the Treasury Department which has a decisive
[00:21:25] role in Washington's foreign policy at
[00:21:28] the moment, even more so as,
[00:21:32] as I said, in Congress everyone is focused on
[00:21:35] think
[00:21:38] that act "Peace Through
[00:21:42] Strength", which was announced by the Republican congressman
[00:21:45] , has a chance to pass in such a short
[00:21:49] time. To be able to
[00:21:51] force the administration
[00:21:55] to relax these sanctions, so I would
[00:21:59] look at what will happen at the moment with
[00:22:02] the Treasury Department and
[00:22:06] of course
[00:22:08] also when Russia will start
[00:22:12] sending this diesel to the U.S.
[00:22:16] The White House has not yet said who will pay for it and from
[00:22:20] which sectors the demand comes, so we will
[00:22:23] probably see in the coming days
[00:22:26] and hopefully also
[00:22:29] a mechanism to control that
[00:22:33] truce we were talking about
[00:22:53] of politics, money
[00:22:55] and
[00:22:58] electoral benefits, however, from the data we
[00:23:01] have, 24 hours after
[00:23:05] the announcement made by Donald Trump. Who seems
[00:23:08] to be the winner of these decisions and announcements at this moment?
[00:23:12] The winner of the round is certainly Vladimir Putin. We see how
[00:23:16] the Russian Federation continues to profit
[00:23:20] from the disagreements between Ukraine and its partner states and
[00:23:23] especially from the personal conflict between President Zelensky and
[00:23:27] his American counterpart Trump. Let's not forget that this is not the first
[00:23:31] time that President Trump would want to replace
[00:23:34] Zelensky, but President Trump is betting on a more
[00:23:38] pliable character, but let's not forget that
[00:23:41] it is very likely that the next president of Ukraine will be
[00:23:44] a rather tough character like perhaps Mr. Budanov or another
[00:23:48] leader with extensive military experience and who would not be
[00:23:52] such a pliable interlocutor as President Trump would like.
[00:23:55] We understand that President Trump
[00:23:58] is
[00:24:00] concerned about maintaining control over the House of Representatives and
[00:24:03] the Senate and we will see more and more
[00:24:06] announcements in the coming period. There are
[00:24:09] certain sources from Washington that
[00:24:12] state that the United States will
[00:24:16] lift a series of sanctions imposed on states that until now, such as India, which
[00:24:20] until this moment bought energy
[00:24:23] resources from the Russian Federation, but it is an
[00:24:26] extremely dangerous precedent and we can expect other states to take
[00:24:30] similar decisions in the coming period. It is also very important
[00:24:34] what happens tomorrow in Brussels and
[00:24:37] of course we must also look at
[00:24:41] transatlantic relations,
[00:24:44] a gesture of public humiliation by President Zelensky towards
[00:24:48] Trump is probably coming to ensure
[00:24:51] that the privileged security relationship between Washington and Kyiv does not
[00:24:54] suffer.
[00:24:57] This week, representatives of NATO, officials from Romania,
[00:25:00] Ukraine, the United States, and experts from over 20 countries
[00:25:04] met in Chisinau within the Moldova
[00:25:08] Security Forum, where they discussed the security
[00:25:11] landscape in the Republic of Moldova, but also in
[00:25:15] the entire region. On the agenda of the discussions were
[00:25:18] also the problems faced by the eastern
[00:25:22] flank of NATO and the entire eastern flank of the European
[00:25:25] Union, in the context in which the states in this region
[00:25:29] are looking for solutions to ensure their security
[00:25:33] in the context of increasingly hybrid and
[00:25:36] physical attacks.
[00:25:50] The Chișinău Forum brought together over 700 participants from the Republic of
[00:25:53] Moldova, Europe and the United States, including officials, diplomats and experts from
[00:25:57] 20 countries. In her opening speech, President Maia Sandu
[00:26:00] warned that the war in Ukraine is also making its effects felt in
[00:26:04] the Republic of Moldova, including through repeated violations of
[00:26:07] airspace. The head of state underlined that in September alone, the state's
[00:26:10] airspace was violated more than 20 times. Maia Sandu
[00:26:14] pleaded for strengthening defense capabilities and cooperation with European partners,
[00:26:18] stating that the authorities are analyzing the possibility of producing
[00:26:21] equipment on the domestic market for detecting and neutralizing
[00:26:24] drones.
[00:26:32] hours of each incursion, anonymous telegram channels
[00:26:36] tell Moldovans that the dungeon comes from helping
[00:26:40] Ukraine and that our army is preparing for
[00:26:43] someone else's war. Russia's
[00:26:46] and Sir then blames those to stand with the
[00:26:49] victim. This is reversal of
[00:26:54] classic method of
[00:26:55] manipulation.
[00:27:00] The Minister of Defense of Chișinău, Anatolie Nosatîi, warned in turn that
[00:27:04] the latest incidents directly jeopardize the security of citizens, even if
[00:27:08] the aircraft are not officially launched against the Republic of Moldova. He
[00:27:11] emphasized that the authorities are making efforts to find effective solutions to
[00:27:15] deal with the current challenges in the state's airspace. We have
[00:27:19] become better prepared in terms of
[00:27:21] radar, which means that we have invested correctly
[00:27:25] in systems that ensure the identification
[00:27:29] of dangers from airspace now. Now
[00:27:33] it is our responsibility and we are working in the area
[00:27:36] of identifying possibilities of interception, of shooting down
[00:27:40] these, not putting the life and health of people in danger.
[00:27:44] Present at the Chișinău Security Forum, the Minister of National Defense of
[00:27:47] Romania, Radu Miruță, noted the importance of deterring Russia through
[00:27:51] joint actions. We see consequences of this
[00:27:54] aggression from the Russian Federation in the electronic warfare zone
[00:27:57] and especially in the disinformation zone.
[00:28:01] The message is a very clear one: we are determined
[00:28:04] to defend ourselves together to deter
[00:28:08] much more a potential country like
[00:28:11] Russia that could have
[00:28:14] thoughts of extending this conflict. The Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of
[00:28:18] Ukraine declared in turn that the experience accumulated by his country in
[00:28:21] combating Russian drones and developing its own defense industry can be
[00:28:25] used by the Republic of Moldova, which is facing increasingly greater risks for
[00:28:28] the security of its airspace.
[00:28:32] huge experience concerning how to fight with Russian
[00:28:36] drones, we rapidly upgrade
[00:28:38] facilities of Ukraine drone production through international
[00:28:42] support and financial, technical, etc. it's we
[00:28:45] ready to share with our partner and want them Moldova, of
[00:28:49] course our experience, because now we can see
[00:28:52] examples how Russia try to probe your
[00:28:56] resistance. Moldova Security Forum was in its third edition and was
[00:28:59] organized by the Konrad Adenauer Foundation Delegated Office.
[00:29:10] Mihai, how vulnerable is the Republic of Moldova at this moment
[00:29:14] and what urgent measures should we adopt here in
[00:29:18] Chișinău?
[00:29:20] The way in which the Russian Federation threatens us
[00:29:24] is evolving extremely rapidly, the espionage services from
[00:29:26] Moscow are adapting very quickly to
[00:29:29] legislative changes in the Republic of
[00:29:32] Moldova, technological changes, there are very many threats
[00:29:35] to the Republic of Moldova present in
[00:29:39] the arsenal of the Russian Federation, we are talking of course about propaganda, we are talking of course
[00:29:43] about drones, we are talking about the direct military threat represented
[00:29:48] regime in Tiraspol,
[00:29:50] so there are so many, so many problems that
[00:29:54] certainly not even a week would be enough to discuss them all, we see
[00:29:58] this terror of drones
[00:30:01] launched by... the Russian Federation against us. We know
[00:30:05] that the authorities are working at a fast pace to
[00:30:08] implement measures that will limit this
[00:30:12] threat. We can never completely exclude
[00:30:15] the drone threat. We see the
[00:30:18] unspeakable gestures of some politicians who post on social
[00:30:22] networks, groups, groups of the national
[00:30:26] army participating in operations to ensure the
[00:30:29] security of airspace, even a former
[00:30:33] supreme commander of the military forces of the Republic of Moldova took
[00:30:37] a series of measures that endanger the lives of soldiers and officers
[00:30:40] of the national army who participate in such actions.
[00:30:44] There are many projects underway, unfortunately
[00:30:47] we cannot hope that
[00:30:49] this,
[00:30:52] for example, this strategy for the defense of the state's
[00:30:56] airspace of the Republic of Moldova will be able to be implemented overnight, it takes...
