A video has been uploaded on social networks showing one of the militant commanders in the so-called “Luhansk People’s Republic” appealing to the self-proclaimed “leader” of the neighboring “Donetsk People’s Republic” (DPR) terrorist organization, Alexander Zakharchenko, to "revive ‘Novorossiya’."
In a video posted on YouTube, commander of LPR’s Bryanka battalion Dmitry Pindyurin believes that it is still necessary to create Novorossia, to be led by Zakharchenko.
"Alexander Vladimirovich, I ask you to take under your leadership the ‘Luhansk People's Republic’ in order to implement the idea of 2014 to create ‘Novorossia’. I ask all residents of Donbas to support my appeal to the ‘head’ of the Donetsk People's Republic," Pindyurin said.
