They had a 'real debt' with gazprom of decades, which they do not need to pay, just for being a pain in the ass to Moldova (and the EU). TN is a mafia state supported by russia.
Of course they did - I mean, they’d have to actually pay for the gas they use, instead of allowing the Kremlin to write it off as a war-time operating expense.
Of course, because TN can only believe the official brief from Moscow, which is, there is no problem, the gas will be back on in a few days when we walk in and turn it back on. Accepting EU help is impossible/unthinkable.

Soon the protests.
And a call for ruzzian help
But in the end, there's only one solution: Free Transnistria from Russia(ns).
