Then these people will be personally enemies of the West and America, ”he said.

Lebedev recalled that Ukraine did not care about the inhabitants of the republics, moreover, the military came to these people "with machine guns to kill."

“If Ukraine failed to recognize the LPR and DPR in seven years, it’s very good that we did it ourselves.

We could have done it a little earlier, but today it will do, ”summed up the designer.
