US troops in Moldova in emerging Plan B for Ukraine
Asia Times ^ | 4/5/24 | Stephen Bryen

Big trouble may be brewing in little Moldova, which is starting to look like a staging area for the European Union to offset an emerging Russian victory in Ukraine. Whether such a plan, if attempted, would succeed is not clear. But Moldova is not the most stable country in the world with the nation split between pro-EU and pro-Russian elements.

US troops are now in Moldova with Romanians, ostensibly for a military exercise called JCET 2024 (Joint Command Exchange Training). The exercise started on April 1 and will continue until April 19.

According to a Moldovan Ministry of Defense statement, “The aim of the exercise is joint training and exchange of experience between Moldovan, Romanian and American special forces, as well as to increase the level of interoperability between the participating contingents. This year’s event will also be attended by representatives of the [Moldovan] State Protection and Security Service and the Pantera Special Forces.”

"Officially, Moldova is supposed to be a neutral country. There is talk of changing its constitution to allow it to join military alliances and, potentially, to join NATO. Joint training with foreign countries (the US and Romania) would appear to violate current constitutional neutrality provisions."

"There has been an ongoing struggle in Moldova with the country roughly divided into two camps: the pro-EU camp on the one side and the pro-Russian camp on the other. Currently, the pro-EU camp is in power.

It has outlawed pro-Russian opposition parties and organizations and jailed some of their leaders. In addition, the ruling party has closed 13 TV and media outlets on the grounds they were connected to Russia.

Until mid-March, the pro-EU party did not allow opposition candidates to run for local or national elections. "

Gotta love the way Biden and the Capitol District elites are once again "defending democracy" - Democrat-style!

Regime change and managed democracy.
It’s what the left trades in.

Looks like NATO has another victim to enslave and throw their children into the Russian meat grinder. What a nice pedophile fascist group we have to run our country. If Moldova bites on this hook it deserves to get slaughtered.

What is it with these circus midgets? Just give peace a chance—yeah, yeah, Putin is a baddie and shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine—got all that—but these bastards want to start WW3 and there ain’t no turning back.

Just finished that new book, Nuclear War: A Scenario....all I can say, it ain’t a happy ending. For anyone. All those preppers—what’s to prep for? There really won’t be any surviving. Not once Nuclear Winter starts in. I remember all the Hullabaloo back int the early 80s about Nuclear Winter....

Well, Volcanos can cause little ice ages and we know that asteroids and comet impacts can change climate—and has...So what about burning entire continents to the ground—wouldn’t that throw up a bit of ash to hide the sun for the next five to ten years....

Need to bring back Edwin Starr—”WAR?! What Is It Good For—Absolutely Nothing...!

France is not going to let Ukraine fall. Macron send he’ll send troops to make sure the government in Kyiv does not fall.

Moldova — with about 2.5 million — is about the same population as Chicago, and a third that of NYC. The idea that Moldova, currently and officially neutral and not a NATO member — will be used next is sad. With the outlawing of political parties, one sees that soft. “velvet glove” of fascism rising. The earliest the EU is currently willing to see them join is 2023. The whole mess will long be over before that time. From the elder Blinken working under Clinton to his son now under Biden, one sees a family “business” in operation.

Expect Ukraine to be partitioned, with Russia giving control over part, and a “multinational peacekeeping force” (read: US troops under UN auspices) installed in the other part, similar to Korea, where China controlled the north and the UN the south.

Say... could you hum a few bars of the beginning of The 1812 Overture?

Just curious.

Regime change for both Russia and the US would help cool this stupidity.

We’re not that lucky however.

Look for Moldova to suddenly declare new extra rights for filthy degenerate homosexuals and transsexual freaks.

This will be the “tell” that they are being bribed by the Quisling Puppet Biden, in exchange for getting US deep state military assistance. The Biden junta is not doing this out of the goodness of their heart. They look for ANY opportunity to push the depraved homosexual agenda. /spit

There shouldn’t be a single America soldier anywhere in Europe.

Our nation is now collapsing due to a successful invasion from the South, with the blessing of our selected officials.

“Macron send he’ll send troops to make sure the government in Kyiv does not fall.”

You made an assumption based on Macron’s musing.

He did not say that.

***********************************************

Yeah in a nuke war once you run out of food you’re done. That’s why my plan is to take off to another country in the southern hemisphere just before it happens. And take gold with me because the dollar would become immediately worthless after a nuke war. Some nations south of the equator might survive relatively unscathed.

Defense Department calculations on Nuclear Winter suggest worldwide temps on average dropping some 40 degrees. A little less along the coast and in the southern hemisphere a little less than 40 degrees. While temps will be above freezing in South America—the sun will be blocked out and hence growing seasons will be nil. not a fun time.

We already got our regime change.
In November 2020.
It didn’t go well for us.

The only people with any realistic chance of survival would be hunter/gatherer peoples of the Southern Hemisphere.

The battle for Kyiv starts after Russian assaults end. It won’t be Russia doing it though, it is those looking for POWER WEALTH and GLORY. The sons and daughters of the American elite elect.
