Lugansk, (ST) – The President of the Lugansk People’s Republic, Leonid Pasechnik, announced that his country will establish diplomatic relations with Syria soon.
In response to a question for the participants in a press tour organized by the Russian Defense Ministry to his country, Pasechnik emphasized that once negotiations are conducted on Syria’s recognition of the independence and sovereignty of the Lugansk People’s Republic, it is likely that we will start implementing this project soon.
