Denis Pushilin, co-chairman of the government of the self-proclaimed
Donetsk People’s Republic in eastern Ukraine, told Itar-Tass on
Wednesday that he does not rule out the postponement of a referendum on
independence scheduled for May 11.
“Tomorrow [May 8] we will put the issue [on plebiscite put-off] to the vote at the people’s council,” Pushilin said.
Earlier Wednesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow is asking Ukrainian federalization supporters to postpone the referendum to a later date to create conditions for it.
“We are asking representatives of Ukraine’s Southeast, supporters of the country’s federalization, to postpone the referendum scheduled for May 11 in order to create proper conditions for this dialogue,” Putin said after talks with Swiss President and Chairperson-in-Office of the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) Didier Burkhalter.
