helinues: Russian President Vladimir Putin signed decrees recognizing two controversial separatist-held regions, the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic, Monday in a ceremony carried on state television.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has previously promised “a swift and firm response” from the US and allies and partners if Russia moves to recognize Ukraine’s breakaway regions as part of Russian territory, calling such a move a “gross violation of international law.”
Here's why the recognition of the separatist-held regions is significant:
War broke out in 2014 after Russian-backed rebels seized government buildings in towns and cities across eastern Ukraine. Intense fighting left portions of the Donbas region's eastern Luhansk and Donetsk oblasts in the hands of Russian-backed separatists. Russia also annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 in a move that sparked global condemnation.
The separatist-controlled areas in Donbas became known as the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) and the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR). The Ukrainian government in Kyiv asserts the two regions are in effect Russian-occupied. The self-declared republics are not recognized by any government, including Russia. The Ukrainian government refuses to talk directly with either separatist republic.
The Minsk II agreement of 2015 led to a shaky ceasefire agreement, and the conflict settled into static warfare along the Line of Contact that separates the Ukrainian government and separatist-controlled areas. The Minsk Agreements (named after the capital of Belarus where they were concluded) ban heavy weapons near the Line of Contact.
Language around the conflict is heavily politicized. The Ukrainian government calls separatist forces "invaders" and "occupiers." Russian media calls separatist forces "militias" and maintains that they are locals defending themselves against the Kyiv government.
More than 14,000 people have died in the conflict in Donbas since 2014. Ukraine says 1.5 million people have been forced to flee their homes, with most staying in the areas of Donbas that remain under Ukrainian control and about 200,000 resettling in the wider Kyiv region. Russian President Vladimir Putin signed decrees recognizing the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic Monday in a ceremony carried on state television.
Earlier in the day, the heads of the self-proclaimed pro-Russian republics requested the Kremlin leader recognize their independence and sovereignty.
Members of Putin's Security Council supported the initiative in a meeting the same day.
Putin directed parliament to recognize the separatist regions and ratify treaties of friendship, following a lengthy address in which he accused the US and NATO of attempting to turn Ukraine into a military outpost to threaten Russia.
"I consider it necessary to make a long overdue decision: to immediately recognize the independence and sovereignty of the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic," Putin said. "I ask the Federal Assembly of the Russian Federation to support this decision, and then to ratify the treaties of friendship and mutual assistance with both republics. These two documents will be prepared and signed in the very near future. And from those who seized and hold power in Kyiv, we demand an immediate cessation of hostilities. Otherwise, all responsibility for the possible continuation of the bloodshed will be entirely on the conscience of the regime ruling on the territory of Ukraine," he continued.
"Announcing the decisions taken today, I am confident in the support of the citizens of Russia and all the patriotic forces of the country. Thank you for your attention," the Russian leader added.
Tinubu alone indirectly employs thousands of Nigerians and the Nigeria media is the largest beneficiary.
All they do is scout for anything Tinubu does, even if he sneezes it’s news. Then find a sensational headline to feed the unsuspecting minions.
Like we always tell them, they are just projecting the Lion of Bourdillon because the demographics that vote are very intact and we must make sure the social media fake voters are active so as to keep them busy such that they won’t even have a strategic plan to do the actual voting.
The strategy is to make them bring all their cards and abuse very early so that close to election, it won’t carry any weight anymore. Na them go tire.
LeoDeKing: Sensational headline to paint ipob in a bad light.
Ipob is a very peaceful organisation known for supporting the govt. It is funny how fulani Buhari govt continue sending dss and fulanis to be killing our people so they can insist ipob is a terrorist organisation.
Our supleme reader, ohamadick lamidi kwanu has told us never to involve in any violence not to talk of killing. If Buhari Jubrin is doing this so that he will not give us our biafla, abiama will deal with him.
Abiama bless our supleme reader, ohamadick lamidi kwanu. By the glace of abiama, ohamadick will leave the zoo cage, with the help of Donald Tlump, putin and Netanyahu.
Ndimkpurummiri: Abba Kyari is from Borno state. The IGP who suspended him is from Yobe state. The person who declared him wanted and arrested him as well is from Adamawa state. All of them are from North East and Muslims. ****** Cry of marginalisation would have rented the air if Abba Kyari was from another clime. Just wait until some of his accomplices who happen to be from another clime get nabbed. You would hear, "Are they the only ones operating drug cartel? All this is a smokescreen, these people hate us. They are sacrificing Kyari to get at our people".
