In LNR, Russian received the status of the only state language
The Lugansk People’s Republic, following the Donetsk People’s Republic, defined Russian as the only state language. This was announced on his Twitter page by the head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik.
The Committee of the People’s Council of the LPR voted for the bill, which defines the status of the only state language in the republic for the Russian language. The bill was introduced by the head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik.
- said the head of the republic.
At the same time, Pasechnik specified that the recognition of the Russian as the only state language does not detract from the importance of Ukrainian and other languages used in the republic.
- explained the chairman of the relevant committee of the People’s Council of the LPR Dmitry Kukarsky.
Previously, Article 10 of the LNR Constitution defined Russian and Ukrainian as the state language.
In early March, amendments to the Constitution were made in Donetsk: the Russian language was recognized as the only state language in the territory of the Donetsk People’s Republic. The corresponding decision was made by the People’s Council of the DPR.
