The area has been fully incorporated in Kherson, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia will never be part of Ukraine again.
“Anything West of the Dnieper was not annexed and incorporated into the Russian Federation.
The area has been fully incorporated in Kherson, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia will never be part of Ukraine again.”
Not true.
The whole of the Oblasts were annexed by Russia (on paper) - even though Russia did not even occupy all that territory. They were never able to enter Zaporizhzhia City (the Capital of Zaporizhzhia Oblast), and were forced to retreat from Kherson City, the Capital of Kherson Oblast.
The world will never recognize Putin’s farce of claiming some kind of legal ownership, over what was obviously an armed robbery.
His mafia thievery and Soviet-style brutality have no place among the civilized people of the world. He must be controlled like a rabid dog, that is and always will be a danger to all around him.
