Ukraine must accept and respect the high level of autonomy of Donbass. This was stated in an interview with Izvestia by a Bundestag deputy from the Left faction, a member of the German-Russian parliamentary group Gregor Gizi.
“In my opinion, the territorial integrity of Ukraine must be preserved, that is, Donbass must remain in its composition. Nevertheless, Kiev must accept and respect the region’s high level of autonomy. In my opinion, this is the only way to resolve the conflict, ”the politician stressed.
In his opinion, in light of the escalating situation in Donbass, the Normandy Four (Germany, France, Russia and Ukraine) will in any case have to return to negotiations and reach an agreement with each other.
In an interview with Izvestia, Gregor Gizi also said that the Nord Stream 2 project is a test whether Europe will be able to defend its personal interests in dialogue with the United States. In addition, the deputy shared his opinion on how the purchase by Germany of the Russian vaccine Sputnik V can help the countries get out of confrontation.
