The decrees on the international recognition of the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, which were signed by Vladimir Putin , do not specify the boundaries within which this was done, because this issue is within the competence of the republics themselves.
The vice-speaker of the LPR parliament , Dmitry Khoroshilov , has already stated that the territory of the republic is the entire Luhansk region.
"Within the legislation of our republics, there are laws on the state border, which clearly state that the territory of the Lugansk People's Republic is the territory of the former Luhansk region.
There is our territory occupied by Ukrainian troops. I think that we should call on Ukraine to withdraw its troops voluntarily.
If this will not happen, I think a decision will be made that will allow establishing peace and restoring our territorial integrity throughout the entire territory of the Luhansk People's Republic," Khoroshilov said.
