According to him, the presence of the Russian army should be the key to the security of the region.

“The now former Ukrainian naval base Vostok can become the location of the Russian military base,” Rogov is quoted by RIA Novosti as saying.

He added that the air base in Melitopol would be even more useful.

Earlier, Vladimir Rogov, in the RT stream “Letuchka”, told how the process of switching to the ruble is going on in the liberated cities.
