Once they have Russian passports, they can be drafted. Be careful what you wish for.

The funny thing is that nearly half of transnistrians already have Russian citizenship. Even the funnier thing is that nearly quarter of transnistrians hold Ukrainian passports and have by far higher chances to be drafted during upcoming mobilization. And the funniest thing is that some of them have both citizenships simultaneously effectively meaning that they can choose the side to be drafted for.

Never heard of that thing unless CIA funds it.

Right, cuz the CIA is the only intelligence agency in the world that fucks around. Obviously.

No, just pointing out that if the CIA did plenty of dirty work in the past, it would be silly to think that nobody else is doing any today.
