Russian Foreign Minister Says Zelensky's regime doesn't represent people of Donbass and Novorossiya

Zelensky's regime doesn't represent people of Donbass and Novorossiya - Lavrov

The West should respect the right of self-determination of the people of former eastern and southern Ukraine that is enshrined in the UN Charter, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told American journalist Tucker Carlson.

"The right to self-determination is the international legal basis for the decolonization process... The people in the east and south of Ukraine, people in Donbass and Novorossiya, they don't consider the Zelensky regime as something which represents their interests. How can they do that when their culture, their language, their traditions, their religion, all this was prohibited?" Lavrov asked.
