Russian official: Putin will announce important decision on Donbas on Sunday

News

Russian Communist Party leader Zyuganov said Putin will announce an important decision on Donbas on Feb 20.

The Duma on Tuesday backed a resolution calling for diplomatic recognition of Eastern Ukraine’s pro-Russian Donbas. Presumably, this will be whether or not Putin backs that decision.

Zyuganov is not an ally of Putin but he ran for President 4 times, including a controversial loss to Yeltsin. However he has advocated for the annexation of Donbas.
