Reply to comment by wart365 in Moldova warns of Russian psy-ops as tensions rise by R1ckCrypto

It’s hard for the Europeans to have a joint military operation there, because Article 11 of the Moldovan constitution explicitly states that “The Republic of Moldova will not admit the stationing of any foreign military troops on its territory”.

Even allowing unarmed European troops in would place the Moldovan government in breach of the constitution.

And the current government does not have sufficient power in parliament to unilaterally change the constitution.

If you wonder how the Russians can keep soldiers in Transnistria… that agreement predated the Moldovan constitution and was not replaced by the constitution.

what about allowing the russians to keep an army in transnistria? i think that happened before they claim to break away.. but transnistria is still Moldovia. so in that sense, the EU can still support Moldovia regardless of Article 11...

Words are only worth the paper they are printed on. Just as only laws enforced are actual laws.

Moldova's like 40 miles across. Just have them commute from Romania.
