 BBC: Wizz Air to suspend Moldova flights over airspace safety 

Wizz Air says it will suspend all flights to the Moldovan capital Chisinau from 14 March due to concerns about the safety of its airspace. 

A Russian missile was fired over Moldovan airspace earlier this month. 

Moldova's civil aviation authority called the airline's decision sudden and regrettable. 

Moldova is one of Europe's poorest economies and has been heavily exposed to the war in Ukraine. 

The airline said: "Safety of the passengers and crew remain Wizz Air's number one priority...

"Following the recent developments in Moldova and the elevated, but not imminent, risk in the country's airspace, Wizz Air has made the difficult but responsible decision to suspend all flights to Chisinau from 14 March."

WNU Editor: It looks like Wizz Air has made the calculation that a Ukrainian invasion and seizure of Transistria is going to happen in the coming weeks.

They should.. if Russia thinks they can invade a sovereign nation why shouldn’t Ukraine using western weapons do the same thing?

Smart move. This is probably another US/Nato generated move. Plan written and staffed by US Milgroup guys and given to the Ukrainians.

More of BH Liddel Harts "indirect approach to warfare". with a touch of Sun Zhu added for flavor..

Hit the enemy where he is not.

If the Ukies do this the Russians will be hard pressed. No way to resupply these guys by land. and if I was the ukies I would have all my ada lined up and waiting.

So if this does happen , the question will be

How now brown cow?
:)

It will be ugly

It makes sense to invade Transnistria. It is an illegal government.

1) Any Russian soldiers captured can be traded for Ukrainian soldiers.

2) It gets rid of the Russian Army in Being in the Ukrainians read.

3) It opens up supply routes.

4) It give Putin an excuse to voluntarily put a noose around his neck.

Orc leader Putin has already attacked from a 'neutral' country. Why let him do so again?

As is typical for the 5 IQ warmongers, zero mention or concern for the Moldovan citizens that would stand to lose their lives and livelihoods.

Properly = probably

If all that does not work tell them you are suicidal.

But remember this...

you have to do all this BEFORE you sign the final contract and take the final oath.

Because once you take the oath for the second time and sign the final paper work you are now part of the military and subject to the UCMJ.

UCMJ is slanted against the individual and is written to support the command, not your rights.
For sure, You will be going to the brig.
