Russia (bbabo.net), - The State Duma Committees on International Affairs and CIS Affairs recommended ratifying the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Mutual Assistance with the LNR and the DNR. This was announced by the head of the international committee Leonid Slutsky in his Telegram channel.

The issue, he clarified, is proposed to be considered at the plenary session of the chamber at 12.00.

"I am confident in the unanimous support of the agreements by the deputies. There can be no other solution!" - said the deputy.

"We understand that there may be sanctions and other decisions on international platforms, but all this does not compare with the fact that people's lives will be saved," Slutsky said in a conversation with reporters.

Recall that a week ago, the State Duma turned to the President of Russia with a request to recognize the DPR and LPR as independent, sovereign and independent states.

The agreements confirm the course of the Russian Federation towards the development of comprehensive, long-term cooperation with the DPR and LPR, the establishment of large-scale, multi-level cooperation.

The day before, the leadership of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics made the same request. After the meeting of the Security Council, where this topic was discussed, Vladimir Putin addressed the citizens of the Russian Federation, saying that he considers it necessary to immediately recognize the sovereignty of the LPR and DPR. He stressed that the Kiev regime does not recognize any other solution to the conflict in Donbass, except for the military one.

Immediately after the appeal, the president signed decrees in the Kremlin recognizing the LNR and the DNR. Also, cooperation agreements were signed with the leadership of the republics, and then submitted to the State Duma.
