Moscow in No Rush to Respond to Donetsk People’s Republic Plea for Accession!
- Russia (Putin) do not want to be seen as responsible for the dismemberment of Ukraine. They do not want to be accused of fomenting, encouraging, supporting … the separatists in Eastern Ukraine. Otherwise, they will lose the propaganda war.
– - What the Russians are doing is to allow events in Eastern Ukraine to follow its natural course. Ie. The illegitimate Kiev government will use the army to attack Eastern Ukraine. It is civil war. Russia will then response with many diplomatic efforts to end the fighting. This will, of course, not be successful. In the end, Russia will have the pretext it needs to invade Eastern Ukraine militarily to rescue/protect ethnic Russians. Regrettably, US+NATO will get the pretext they need to trigger a Europe wide war and World War 3! The Satanic banksters controlling both sides get the WW3 they so longed for.

Russia is taking its time before reacting to Donetsk People’s Republic’s plea to consider its accession into Russia while calling for dialogue between Kiev and the eastern regions.
–
The Russian president’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov has told Kommersant newspaper Russia does not yet have a response to the plea. Earlier on Monday the Kremlin’s press service issued a statement, saying: “Moscow respects the will of the people in Donetsk and Lugansk and hopes that the practical realization of the outcome of the referendums will be carried out in a civilized manner.”
–
It stressed the necessity of a “dialogue between representatives of Kiev, Donetsk and Lugansk.”
–
On Monday, Donetsk People’s Republic proclaimed itself a sovereign state and asked Moscow to consider its accession into Russia, the Republic’s council said.
–
Earlier in the day, the results of referendums were announced in Donetsk and Lugansk Regions, showing the majority of voters support self-rule, amid an intensified military operation by Kiev which resulted in several deaths.

Experts on the issue have weighed in with their view on Russia’s response. International legal expert Alexander Mercouris told RT that Moscow’s reaction was consistent with its previous policy on Ukraine.
–
“Moscow is following what has been its consistent policy right from the start, right from the moment when the coup took place in Kiev in February, which has been pressing for negotiations between Kiev and the actual true democratic representatives of the eastern regions in order to achieve constitutional change,” Mercouris told RT. “I do not think Moscow’s position has changed. But I think Moscow’s position may change in the future.”

International relations expert and senior lecturer at Moscow State University Mark Sleboda also told to RT that he does not view Moscow’s reaction as contradicting its previous stance.
