Donetsk, Jul 18 – DAN. The Heads of
the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics Denis Pushilin and Leonid Pasechnik
recorded video messages to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky urging him to
recognise Donbass’ choice.
“In May, DPR and LPR residents
addressed Ukrainian President Zelensky online putting forward the demands that
had been articulated at the Minsk talks. In less than two months, the number of
the action’s supporters
reached one million. Vladimir Zelensky repeatedly told
the public that he wished to stop the conflict, but things did not go beyond
statements or empty words. A million signatures is truly a people’s voice, as
well as Donbass’ choice. A choice that cannot be ignored,” Pushilin said in his message.
He added that nearly five years had
passed since the signing of the first Minsk Agreements and that over this time
Ukraine had not made a single move towards the implementation of these
agreements or the Package of Measures signed in 2015.
“Ukraine continues the war against
the Donbass population. It is expanding the economic blockade, pursues the
policy of infringement upon the rights of our residents and aggravates the
conflict with provocations and information war. The Donbass people’s patience
is not limitless,” the DPR Head said.
For his part, Pasechnik reminded
Zelensky about his promise during the election campaign. “You pledged to stop
the Donbass war, hear out ordinary people, not only the oligarchs as was the
case before. The action brought together many people; they already number a
million. What will you tell them? Zelensky, can you hear me?” the LPR leader
said.
The Donbass Choice action began in
May. Its participants demand that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky give a
special status to Donbass, stop strikes at the Republics’ territory, resume the
payment of pensions to residents and recognise their right to integration with
Russia. Residents can sign the petition on the action website and make social
media posts hashtagged “ZelenskyRecogniseDonbassChoice.”
Earlier reports said that more than
one million people had signed the Donbass Choice petition to Ukrainian
President Vladimir Zelensky.
On Wednesday, initiator of the
action Yevgenia Tertychnaya sent letters to the leaders of the USA, Germany,
France and Russia asking them to make Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky
fulfil the peace accords.*jk
