“The words“ Lugansk region ”and“ Donetsk region ”never sounded, only the word“ Donbass ”sounded. This was a common word among Ukrainian civil society, ”said the parliamentarian.
As the deputy noted, it was not Russia that unleashed a civil war and not Russia that "overthrew the power of Yanukovych."
“They must make all claims to themselves ... More and more on the sidelines of the Zelensky’s authorities say that they need to beautifully get away from the Donbass theme, cut off and forget about it, develop Ukraine further without those residents who do not allow battalions to enter the territory "- said Vodolatsky.
He added that in order to resolve the Ukrainian conflict, it is first necessary to “destroy” the manifestations of nationalism in the country.
Earlier, the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine Aleksey Danilov said that he does not like the word “Donbass”.
According to him, “this is one of the elements of a hybrid war” when Russia begins to separate “Donbass or Galicia from Ukraine”.
