Former Prime Minister of the DPR: DPR and LPR are de facto part of the Russian Federation

The DPR and LPR are de facto the territory of the Russian Federation, and relatively soon they will become part of the Russian Federation de jure. This was stated by the former chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Donetsk People's Republic (from May 16 to August 7, 2014), the head of the Union of Donbass Volunteers Alexander Boroday at the VI Congress of the All-Russian Political Party of the Motherland, held on July 4 in St. Petersburg, the press service of the organization of the Union of Donbass Volunteers. You probably know that last spring a process was launched that facilitated, well, in fact, allowed citizens of the republics of Donbass to receive Russian passports. Every day more and more citizens of the republics of Donbass, who are citizens of the Russian Federation, become. This is a huge matter for which we are very grateful to our president (president of the Russian Federation). I am sure that in the relatively imminent term the republics of Donbass will no longer become a de facto part of the Russian Federation, de facto they are already part of the Russian Federation, but will become such de jure, Boroday said.
