“It’s time for the Kyiv regime to leave its illusions about the seizure of the liberated territories,” RIA Novosti quotes Rogov.

According to him, the region will definitely hold a referendum on self-determination.

Earlier it was reported that the referendum on joining Russia Zaporozhye and Kherson regions could be held on the same day.

Kirill Stremousov, deputy head of the military-civilian administration of the Kherson region, said that they intend to determine the date of the referendum within a month.
