“Ukraine has long since lost the status of a sovereign state and will soon lose that of a subject of international law”, the senator wrote on his Telegram social network channel.

Likewise, he described the Ukrainian territory as “the object of negotiations” and said that “it is a direct consequence of the unconstitutional coup d’état” that took place in February, 2014.

In this sense, Klishas stressed that in the face of the threat to the security of Europe and especially that of Russia constituted by the Government of Kiev, “it is necessary to implement denazification and demilitarization throughout Ukraine.”

“Otherwise, there will always be a threat to our territory, our citizens and infrastructure,” he confirmed.

The Russian parliamentarian made this comment the day after the adviser to the Ukrainian presidential office, Alexei Arestovich, mentioned the possibility of launching an attack on the Crimean bridge “as soon as a technical opportunity presents itself.”

Russia launched an armed operation in Ukraine on February 24, after the authorities of the self-proclaimed people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk requested help to repel the increase in aggression and intense bombing by Kiev.

Previously, Moscow recognized the independence and sovereignty of both territories and signed treaties of friendship, cooperation and mutual assistance with their leaders, which included the establishment of diplomatic relations and military aid.

In his speech to inform about the beginning of the operation, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that the objective is to protect the population of Donbass from the abuses and genocide of kyiv during the last eight years, in addition to “demilitarizing” and ” denazify” Ukraine.
