However, it was not immediately clear from reports if troops would enter areas outside those controlled by separatists.Putin's order comes after he said that Moscow would recognize the regions, known as the so-called Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic, as independent, a move that signaled a rejection of diplomatic efforts to cease fighting.I consider it necessary to take a long-overdue decision: To immediately recognize the independence and sovereignty of Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic,” Putin said, according to <a href="https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-joe-biden-boris-johnson-europe-emmanuel-macron-2b7c2949ae3168effce9d0cb2584bb32" target="_blank">The Associated Press</a>.<a href="https://thehill.com/policy/international/595221-putin-orders-troops-to-breakaway-ukraine-regions" target="_blank">https://thehill.com/policy/international/595221-putin-orders-troops-to-breakaway-ukraine-regions</a></blockquote>
