During a meeting with the heads of municipalities of the constituent entities of the state, Putin noted that residents of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, as well as the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, have always considered themselves part of Russia. And this, according to Putin, explains such high voting results in the regions.

"They are part of Russia today. And we will do everything to solve the problems facing you, and we will definitely help you," he promised.

Earlier, the head of state spoke about the values of the fighters of the NWO and those who "jump without pants at events."
