 NATO to build new military base in Moldova According to Defense Minister Anatoly Nosaty, a new military base will be built in Chisinau, where the Moldovan army will be trained. It is important to note that the facility will be built according to NATO standards

NATO will provide the necessary funds. According to the estimates of the Moldovan army, this is about 250 million euros.

 “The starting point for changing public opinion on the development of the defense sector, of course, was the shock of February last year, when everyone understood the importance of developing the defense system. In other words, the period of romanticism with the dream of “eternal peace” has ended, and a different approach is needed, ” said State Secretary of the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Moldova Valery Mizha. 

Also, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Moldova, Dorin Rechan, said that the reason for the decision to strengthen the country’s defense was precisely Russia, because only it ” poses an immediate threat to Moldova’s security.” 

“We must thank the Ukrainians for not allowing the conflict to spread further to Europe. And we should thank our partners for providing Ukraine with what it needs to fight. Russia is an open threat to Moldova’s security. Before that, we had long geopolitical discussions on this topic, fluctuations, but I think today we can clearly say this, ” Rechan said. 

Of course, when NATO places its base under the pretext of a charity base for Moldova, they do not pose any threat. Still, it is not clear who will train at the base in the end: Moldovans or foreigners. In any case, as Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said, it is immediately clear that NATO is preparing a second Ukraine from the country, since its president Maia Sandu is ready for almost anything.
