Regionen Kherson kommer troligen att ansluta sig till Ryssland, men först skall en folkomröstning hållas.
Förhållandena på Krim har blivit bättre sedan de anslöt sig och ses som ett föredöme i Kherson.
Kherson Region may follow in Crimea’s footsteps — authorities
"The ideology of attitude towards people should have an explicit humanitarian dimension. Including the systematic work of all organizations, which we demonstrate in Crimea today.
After all, under Ukrainian rule I always heard that everything was bad in Crimea, but when people visit it from time to time and see the changes that have taken place over eight years, not just the new roads, but in terms of the quality of life, of course, they feel that Crimea is an example worth following.
True, the LPR and the DPR have their own histories, but Crimea, as we say, is the best way of returning to the home harbor. In all likelihood, the Kherson Region will follow in Crimea’s footsteps," Stremousov said.
