A similar timeframe was implemented by Russia for Crimean residents in 2014.
into Russia. This included the Luhansk and Donetsk regions that collectively make up the Donbas area, which has been a focal point of Russia's invasion. The other two annexed regions were the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions, which played host to intense conflict and occupation during the war.
Ivanov further explained that the"passportization" of the annexed regions will be based on the same process that was carried out for Crimea when it was annexed in 2014, The Moscow Times reported. Residents of the peninsula had also been given a month to make their decision about citizenship. Above, Vladimir Putin is pictured at a political event announcing the annexation of four Ukrainian regions. The Russian government has given residents of those regions a month to either accept or reject citizenship.While it is currently unclear what the repercussions might be for Ukrainians who decline citizenship, the Times noted that, in 2020, Putin passed a law barring foreigners in Crimea from owning land. A similar move could happen for the four new regions in the future.
Ivanov claimed to RIA Novosti that"many" residents of Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson already have Russian citizenship, but he did not offer a concrete number of how many. Furthermore, he said that the Kremlin will be working to speed up the process of"passportization" for the remaining Ukrainian citizens in the regions.Putin's claims of annexation have been received poorly on the world stage.
