А referendum in the Lugansk People’s Republic (LPR) on its accession to Russia may be organized only after the complete liberation of the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), LPR’s leader Leonid Pasechnik said on Tuesday, TASS reports. 

"Our ultimate goal is to push the enemy to a safe distance, to help our brothers liberate the DPR. And only after that we will think about a possible referendum, although we expressed our view back in 2014," he said.

Pasechnik said earlier that the republic was looking at organizing a referendum on accessing to Russia. On July 15, the LPR passed a decision to set up a public headquarters of the referendum.
