Lawmakers from the ruling United Russia party have proposed a draft resolution to seek the foreign ministry's view on whether to call for the recognition of two breakaway Ukrainian regions as independent, Reuters reported on Monday, citing the parliament's database.
The State Duma, Russia's lower house, is due to discuss the proposal later on Monday. The final resolution would then be sent to President Vladimir Putin.
