Putin officially signs the annexation of 4 regions of Ukraine: Now they are

Russian President Vladimir Putin has now officially signed annexation agreements with Moscow-appointed representatives of the four regions of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia, reports Euronews

According to him, the 4 regions already belong to Russia. "Annexation is an expression of the will of the people. It means that Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson are now Russia forever," Putin said.

Putin blamed the US and Great Britain for forcing European countries to adopt sanctions against Russia, as well as forcing the EU not to buy gas from the Kremlin.

"The United States is pushing for a complete cutoff of Russian energy in the EU in order to capture the European market itself," he said.
