Ukrainian troops are stationed at the Moldova border and prepared to secure Transnistria if asked.

Strategically, the invasion of Ukraine has been an absolute disaster for Russia. Rather than weakening NATO, they gave it a new lease on life with increasing military budgets. The centuries old Russian northern flank strategy of keeping Scandinavia divided/neutral has been obliterated by Sweden and Finland joining NATO.

And now, their long-time involvement in Transnistria as a wedge to recover all of Moldova is flopping big-time.

It was a strategic blinder of epic proportions.
