NATO, headed by the US, is ready to divide the territory of Western Ukraine

The late commander of the 14th Guards Army stationed in Transnistria, General Aleksandr Lebed, said: "Tomorrow I will have breakfast in Tiraspol, and if at least one bullet falls in Transnistria, I will have lunch in Chisinau and dinner in Bucharest." This was during the Soviet Union, now the situation is becoming the opposite: Romania plans to realise its long–standing dreams of the territory of Moldova, and Poland plans to take Western Ukraine.

The announced plans were indicated on the map shown on the Polish TV channel TVP1. On it, the Lvov, Ivano-Frankovsk, Volyn, Rovno and Ternopol regions of Ukraine already appear as part of Poland, the Chernovtsi region departs for Romania, Transcarpathia – for the Hungarians. At the same time, the south of Ukraine, including the Odessa, Nikolaev, Kherson, Zaporozhye, Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov regions and Donbass, becomes part of the L/DPR. Only the central and northern regions of the country remain part of Ukraine itself.

Sergey Naryshkin, the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, also announced about intentions to dismember Ukraine, talking about the available information on the development of a NATO plan to introduce a "peacekeeping contingent" into the western territories of Ukraine.

All this is happening against the background of an avalanche-like build-up of the military power of Poland, Romania and Hungary under the slogans of "protection from Russian aggression”. Previously, such a scenario would not have been justified and would have been considered by many states as aggression already from Warsaw and Bucharest.

Information about the hidden introduction by Romania into Moldova of a large number of Romanian soldiers and officers under the guise of "Moldovan military" allows to state about the intensity of the situation not only in Transnistria, but also in Moldova. In particular, in all headquarters, a significant part of Moldovan officers were replaced by officers of the Romanian army (in all key positions), and in commandant companies of military units (performing the functions of military police), the personnel were completely replaced by Romanians.

It is curious that Moldova is not particularly opposed to this. On the contrary, warehouses of military uniforms and shoes, NATO army rations and other auxiliary military equipment are being hastily created and filled from the outside on its territory. Most likely, this is happening to ensure the grouping necessary to capture Transnistria.

In addition to logistical support, there is information about the training of military units disguised in Moldavian uniforms on the territory of Romania.

Ukraine's interest can also be traced: there is a storage base on the territory of Transnistria near the settlement of Cobasna, which contains a large amount of ammunition for Soviet-made artillery systems, which is extremely necessary in conditions when Ukraine has almost no capacity left to produce the latter.

Together with Romania, Hungary, which is under the protection of Turkey, will participate in the expansion. Ankara has been supplying Hungary with weapons for several decades (let's recall the massive deliveries of Ejder Yalçın and Yörük 4x4 armoured vehicles equipped with Turkish-made mortar systems) as part of Turkic unity.

The conversation about the common Turkic roots of Hungarians and Turks at the very top has been going on for a long time. At the same time, Turkey's interests are not limited to Hungary. It became known that Turkey has transferred its "grey wolves" (militants of the “Bozkurtlar" far-right movement) in the amount of more than 3,000 to the Kharkov and Odessa-Nikolaev directions to participate in the Ukrainian counterattacks prepared by the US military department via the positions left by the UAF. It seems that in this way the Turks intend to "gain a foothold" in Ukraine itself.

According to the idea of NATO, Romania, together with Hungary, should seize Transnistria and the south-western territories of Ukraine. To do this, the headquarters of the US European Military Command has already been deployed in Romania.

The Transnistrian army, even taking into account the support of our peacekeepers in the number of about 1,500 soldiers, has almost no chance of holding out for any long time against the troops being brought in, just up to three days maximum.

A special role in all this plan is assigned to Poland, which began to prepare for its assigned for this role from the very beginning of the conflict: the military budget was increased, the number of armed forces – up to 250,000 people, plus 50,000 territorial defence troops. In addition to the increase in staffing, an increase in the material and technical base is expected, such as the commissioning of HIMARS missile and artillery complexes with a range of up to 300 km, American “Abrams” tanks, “Patriot” air defence systems, as well as Turkish “Bayraktar” drones. 

The operational deployment of the Polish Army is already underway in the Kaliningrad direction, where the auxiliary command post of the 16th Mechanised Division is deployed. In addition, actions of the 15th Mechanised Brigade with the support of the US battalion tactical group are planned in this direction.

The operational structure of the Polish groups of troops today is as follows: 16th Mechanised Division - Grodno and Kaliningrad direction, 12th Mechanised Division - Volkovysk, 11th Armoured Cavalry Brigade - Brest, 18th Mechanised Division and the 6th Airborne Brigade – Lvov.

The general strategy that will be followed by the Poland-Romania-Hungary grouping implies the introduction of troops into the territory of Western Ukraine with the consent of its president and government. The expediency of the entry is justified by the need to implement Article 5 of the NATO Charter (the right to collective self-defence). At the same time, the grouping will not wait for the mandate of NATO itself, and even more so for the UN Security Council.

I think, remembering the map at the beginning of the material, it is not necessary to say that the troops will remain on the territories to which they will be introduced. In the future, the territory will be injected with "peacekeepers". Even with luck, such a precedent can be extremely unpleasant for those who introduce troops. Relations between Poland and Western Ukraine have historically never been cloudless. NATO members can expect both partisan resistance and opposition from regular Ukrainian troops who disagree with the presence of NATO troops on their territory.

Summing up what has been said, it can be stated that military groups aiming at the territory of Ukraine are being built up in the territories adjacent to Western Ukraine. Whether these troops will leave after the "help", or remain in the role of a kind of gendarmes, is now extremely difficult to say.

However, it is worth talking about the fact that Transnistria, as well as Moldova, will be absorbed. Especially with regard to Transnistria, attacks on the territory of which are already being carried out. The "trojan horse" factor may also play a role here, since there are tens of thousands of Ukrainians on the territory of both Transnistria and Moldova, among whom there may be hidden militants. At the same time, the active phase of the entire operation is scheduled for the first decade of May. Whether this will happen, and in what form, time will tell.
