Will Russia try to establish a second front of the war from Transnistria?

[CumbrianLefty]

At this point, this would only result in the dissolution of Transnistria and realization of Moldovan NATO ambitions. So, quite likely given Russian foreign policy.

But haven't you heard, Russia is going to TaKe tHe SuWaLkI gAp!!??!!???!!!111!!!

That being said, I am confident that Russia will eventually capture Odessa

This confidence is presumably due to something, but its certainly not their conduct of the war so far.

Russian propaganda loves to assert "we haven't even been trying up to now!".

Which really does raise all sorts of questions.
