12:23 GMT 26.04.2022 (Updated: 12:41 GMT 26.04.2022) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Moscow hopes that Transnistria will not be drawn into the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, so that there is no need to intervene in resolving the situation, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko said.
"Let's wait until the investigation is over. We would like to avoid such a scenario," Rudenko said, answering the question of what Moscow will do if Transnistria is drawn into the Ukrainian conflict.
He added that it is too early to say who is responsible for the
terrorist attacks in Transnistria before the investigation is over.
Rudenko stressed that the Transnistria situation is "very difficult," so the introduction of a state of emergency in the region is "quite reasonable."
