So he answered the question of whether the new territories would be accepted into Russia entirely or only parts controlled by the Russian Armed Forces.

When asked what to do with the unliberated territory of the DPR, Peskov replied that “it will have to be liberated,” since “the state recognized by us within the borders of 2014 is entering Russia.”

Pavel Krasheninnikov, chairman of the State Duma Committee on State Building and Legislation, believes that the new territories will become part of Russia in their current status of republics and regions.

Earlier it was reported that Russian President Vladimir Putin will meet with the heads of the liberated territories on September 30 in Moscow.

According to the press secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov, the ceremony of signing agreements on the entry of new territories into Russia will also be held on September 30 in the Kremlin.
