Political scientist Golovachev: Ukraine may lose territories when Moscow recognizes the DPR and LPR 
Political scientist Andrey Golovachev said that Ukraine may lose a number of territories if Russia recognizes the self-proclaimed DPR and LPR. The relevant material was published in the edition of Glavred.
The specialist believes that after this step of Russia, the previously unrecognized republics will make claims to the entire territory of Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
“Medium-term (10-15 years) the prospect of Ukraine is being in a state of permanent war with Russia, economic degradation, a rapid population decline, turning into a gray zone and, probably, further reduction of the sovereign territory, “the political scientist believes.
According to Golovachev, if Kiev will continue to pursue an unpredictable and “freaky” foreign and domestic policy, the United States may refuse to “contain” Moscow.
