'This is a very difficult position not just for Moldova but for any small country.'
Moldova Prime Minister Natalia Gavrilita told CNN's "Fareed Zakaria GPS” in an interview that aired Sunday her country, which borders Ukraine, fears a possible Russian invasion.“We are worried, of course. This is a risk, it’s a hypothetical scenario for now, but if the military actions move further into the southwestern part of Ukraine and toward Odesa," Gavrilita said.
"We are very worried, especially considering that troops are on the territory of the secessionist Transnistria region. We are doing everything possible to maintain peace and stability and to ensure that the fighting does not escalate," she added. "This is a very difficult position not just for Moldova but for any small country, any country that relies on the rules-based international order."
"If a country can start an annexation war without any regard for, you know, international law then in this sense, nobody is safe and I think that a lot of countries are worried."In April, a Russian general said Russia was seeking to take control of southern Ukraine in order toin Transnistria, which lies directly along the border of Ukraine but is aligned with Russia and hosts 1,500 Russian troops.

The U.N. plan will enable Ukraine — one of the world's key breadbaskets — to export 22 million tons of grain and other agricultural goods that have been stuck in Black Sea ports due to Russia's invasion. U.N. Secretary General Antonio Guterres called it “a beacon of hope” for millions of hungry people who have faced huge increases in the price of food.
