Our region will become an integral part of the Russian Federation, and no one can prevent this, ”he told RIA Novosti.

Stremousov noted that he would be one of the first, along with the head of the region Vladimir Saldo, to receive Russian passports.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on simplified admission to Russian citizenship of residents of the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions.

The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, said that the European Union does not recognize and condemns the issuance of Russian passports to residents of the liberated territories of Kherson and Zaporozhye.
