‼️🇷🇺🇺🇸 Russia is seeking to transfer control over the entire territory of four regions - Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhia and Kherson - at talks with the US in Riyadh , - The Moscow Times
➖"The (Russian) Constitution does not have a mechanism for regions to leave Russia. We need the entire Zaporizhia and the entire Kherson region," an official close to the Kremlin allegedly told a foreign agent media outlet.
▪️According to another Russian official, the Kremlin hopes that Washington might even pressure Kyiv to withdraw its troops from those regions entirely.
▪️"Either Trump will influence them to leave, or they will tell us: "Enter into protracted negotiations and in parallel use military force to establish control." This is the worst option for us, because forcing rivers is always a painful operation," he explained.
▪️Alternatively, Russia could try to occupy part of another Ukrainian region, such as Dnipropetrovsk or Sumy, and then offer to exchange it for Kherson and Zaporozhye .
