In war, your plans should be as impenetrable as night - at least according to famed Chinese general Sun Tzu.
But it seems Belarus dictator Alexander Lukashenko isn't much of a scholar, at least if his latest stunt on state TV is anything to go by.
Addressing his security council today, the strongman appeared to be standing in front of a battle map showing Russia's attack plan in Ukraine.
The map showed Russian lines of attack heading into Ukraine, some of which have materialised in the first few days of the invasion - such as forces storming towards Kyiv from the north, and towards Kherson from Crimea.
But they also showed off several attacks that have yet to come to pass - with one even appearing to point from the port city of Odessa into Moldova, suggesting Russia plans to march troops into Ukraine's neighbour.

Ping.
Where’s Waldo? I mean Biden.
Muldova Sucks! (see REDS1 with John Malkovich at the end with Bruce Willis)
I’ve been saying that Moldova is on Putin’s list. I’ve no idea why more people aren’t noticing this.
Moldova - sounds like a new prescription for skin rash 🤪
If we lived in an era where the majority of Democrats did not openly hate all republicans, I would expect former First Lady Melania to be asked about current events in the Ukraine.
Melania is from Slovenia, which used to be Yugoslavia.
That is not far from Poland. Poland is now absorbing many refugees from Ukraine. I’m sure she has certain opinions and reactions to what’s going on, but no one seems to be asking her yet.
Oh...Delores!
Are you suggesting Putin and his Russian trolls were lying when they said Donbass was his last territorial demand?
I shan’t believe it!!!
I work with a Russian/ Ukrainian who has US citizenship and he said this would happen before the invasion began, it’s a small, neutral country that Putin knows no other country would shed blood for
LOL!
Moldova is going to get rolled over not because they were going to join NATO (they were not) but just because they’re in the way of Putin’s dreams of reconquering Eastern Europe.
They must be planning on fighting the 1st Air Cavalry out of Fort Hood. Their patch is above his hand.
An anecdote having perhaps no meaning:
Some time ago, but 2000, thei century, America USAID had a program where they would pay the containerized freight for items gathered up by churches and shipped to churches abroad that were in need.
There was a lot of medical supplies and used hospital equipment shipped. There as also a considerable wuantity of good used clothing.
A church in rural NC that was home to Moldavian Christians shipped there under that program. One container I looked at had at least 25% panty hose. Russia was in the 21 century and still couldn’t make them.
Romania is a NATO member and this puts them right at their doorstep.
