“Technically, questions are being worked out now, how to do it, when to do it,” Sharlay is quoted by TASS.
He added that a significant part of the region, where almost half of the region's population lives, "is under the control of the West, the Nazis."
Sharlay noted that the residents of the city of Zaporozhye will not be able to vote now, because they are intimidated.
“Because if they say yes, that “we want to go to Russia,” the SBU will immediately take them to their dungeons,” he said.
Earlier, Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the military-civilian administration of the Zaporozhye region, said that about 80% of the population of the Zaporozhye region want to unite with Russia.
