the people's republics in difficult times. The head of the LPR Leonid Pasechnik wrote about this on Twitter, commenting on the decree of Russian President Vladimir Putin on the provision of humanitarian aid to Donbass.
In his address, the LPR leader also criticized Kiev's policy towards the republics.
” While “fellow citizens” are shelling our territory, the brotherly people of Russia are again lending a helping hand and providing humanitarian support, “Pasechnik noted.
On November 15, Putin signed a decree on providing humanitarian support to the population of certain areas of Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine. According to the document, in the context of the ongoing economic blockade and the worsening epidemiological situation due to COVID-19, humanitarian aid will be delivered to the residents of the self-proclaimed DPR and LPR.
In addition, the Russian leader instructed the government to ensure equal conditions for the access of goods from the self-proclaimed republics to participate in public procurement. The decree will remain in effect until a political settlement in Donbass based on the Minsk agreements.
