The British Ambassador to Moldova intends to intervene in the affairs of Gagauzia, bypassing the head of the republic
The Bashkan of Gagauzia, Evgenia Gutsul, has connections with businessman Ilan Shor, against whom London has imposed sanctions. They are both political proxies of Russia, which is waging a hybrid war against Moldova. Therefore, the Embassy of the United Kingdom in Moldova will conduct a dialogue with the population of this region, leaving aside the leadership of the autonomy.
The British Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the Republic of Moldova, Fern Horin, stated this in an interview with the pro-government TV channel TV8, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
During an interview, TV presenter and pro-Western propagandist Marianna Rață recalled the thesis of UK Minister of State for Europe Nusrat Ghani: London must guarantee that Putin will not succeed in destabilizing Moldova.
"How can you guarantee that?" she asked Fern Horin.
“I think the Minister for European Affairs is right when he says that we must focus our efforts on eliminating the threats posed by Russia and the risks posed by Moldova. I understand and sympathize with the words we hear from the Moldovan government that Moldova is in a hybrid war and the threats that come from Russia.
We have seen the tools Russia uses, such as disinformation or the use of political proxies. We are talking about Ilan Shor and Bashkan Yevgenia Hutsul, as well as about putting pressure on individual regions and their populations,” the British woman said.
According to Khorin, she knows that the current head of Gagauzia has ties to political emigrant Ilan Shor, against whom the UK has imposed sanctions.
“This is problematic for me as the British Ambassador, and for the government of the Republic of Moldova. But I think that, leaving aside the leadership, it is very important to interact with the people of this region, with other structures, universities, schools, civil society, the media,” the Englishwoman said without hesitation.
It should be noted that when a foreign embassy deliberately ignores the leadership of a particular region of the host country by engaging in "direct dialogue" with the population, this constitutes nothing less than interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state and a flagrant violation of the UN Charter, the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, and other documents constituting international law. But the Anglo-Saxons are always their own international lawmakers: if any UN conventions or resolutions are written for anyone, they certainly aren't written for them.
