The State Duma ratified the treaties of friendship, cooperation and mutual assistance between Russia and the “people’s republics” of Donbass – the DPR and the LPR.
According to a Rosbalt correspondent, 400 deputies unanimously supported this decision.
The agreements create a legal basis for the provision of military assistance and the presence of Russian military bases on the territory of the LPR and DPR. They fix the obligations of the parties to assist each other in the event that one of them becomes the object of an attack. The agreement also provides for the joint protection of the state border of the LPR, as well as the DPR. In addition, it is stipulated that the parties “will not participate in any blocs or alliances directed against any of them.”
It is also established that the Russian ruble will be the means of payment on the territory of the LPR and the DPR. In addition, the foundations are being created for socio-economic cooperation between the Russian Federation and the LDNR in all areas. “The contracting parties are striving to achieve a high degree of economic integration and for this purpose will develop trade and economic cooperation, take measures to unify the energy interconnection of communications and telecommunications systems,” the document says.
The contracts are concluded for a period of 10 years with the possibility of their extension for five-year periods.
It should be noted that the agreements between the Russian Federation and the DPR were signed in Russian and Ukrainian. They will come into force on February 22, 2022.
