Moldovan President Igor Dodon said he would not allow the building of NATO's military base on his territory, which actively lobbyed a pro-European parliamentary majority. The Moldovan leader threatened the acting deputy coalition and the government that he would "send" them to the dump of history if they continue to try to ignore the non-aligned status of the Moldovan state.
Igor Dodon will spare no effort and money to ensure peace and national security in the country. However, according to the Moldovan leader, this does not require the presence in the country of "NATO boots". On Monday, August 14, the head of state wrote on his Facebook page.
"We want peace on Moldovan soil and will not allow secret and dangerous games that endanger the safety of citizens," the head of state said..
Noting the zeal of the ruling Moldovan leadership as soon as possible to deploy the military base of the North Atlantic Alliance on the territory of Moldova, Dodon in a tough form threatened the government and the ruling party with the launch of indefinite protest actions across the country.
"Let them know, together with the people of Moldova, we will direct our efforts to overthrow this power in all possible ways, including the organization of protests in the non-stop mode," Dodon promised..
According to the President of Moldova, the society is now more consolidated than ever in the matter of national security and the deployment of NATO military personnel is not included in the aspirations of Moldovans. In addition, there are positive developments in the peaceful settlement of the Transnistrian issue, and the emergence of a NATO base can once and for all bury the negotiation process.
The US is going to build eight new facilities at a military base in the village of Bulboaca. These include an office, a hotel, an apartment building, a service station, a school, a shopping center. August 7, the media reported that Washington is already looking for contractors for their construction.
The Moldovan state is pursuing a course of non-aligned policy. Is a parliamentary-presidential republic. The main tone of lawmaking is asked by parliament. President of the country - a figure somewhat limited in the field of action.
At present, most of the deputies are openly pro-Western, unlike the president, who is increasingly looking toward Moscow. Thus, between the deputies and Dodon there are always disagreements.
Thus, the people's representatives did not agree with the president on the withdrawal of Russian military from Transdniestria, expulsion from Moldova of five Russian diplomats and proposals on the federalization of the country. In addition, they, having agreed with the Americans to build a NATO base, did not agree on this very sensitive issue for the country with the president.
