Russian President Vladimir Putin pledged on Wednesday that the entire country would help rebuild the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DPR and LPR), TASS reports.
The president said it would require enormous efforts "to fix up [the city of] Donetsk, the Donetsk Republic, the Lugansk Republic."
"This is why our entire country will be helping both the DPR and LPR… There will be goodwill months, weeks, and years of helping to rebuild it. But we will certainly do this," Putin pledged.
