I mean I get that Russia wants to keep its sphere of influence but its influence you don't get to invade cause they didn't do what you wanted. The Kremlin has come out PISSED over how Moldova's pro-western government came into power and with Transnistria right there Moldova knows that once Ukraine falls they are the next target. Hence why Russia in a peace deal wants a clear road to Transnistria.
Also there have been something like 6 Russian/Iranian drones this week that have been found crashed on Moldovan soil.
My whole thing is that if Ukraine sees the US as a better place for growth and prosperity, the same with Georgia, then Russia either needs to do better itself to earn back the influence or just understand the US came with a better offer. Its like how the US has lost influence to countries to China. China was willing to give them a bunch of money (granted the terms make it extremely difficult for the countries to get out of the loans and they are structured as a trap) and the US wasn't.
