DISINFO: Donbas will be part of Russia
SUMMARY
According to Article 67 of the new Russian Constitution, Donbas will become a part of Russia. After the amendments to the Constitution come into force, Donbas will join the Russian Federation as a federal territory.
RESPONSE
Recurring disinformation narrative doubting Ukraine's authority over Donbas. The amendments to the Russian Constitution do not refer to Donbas in any way and there is no proof that they would lead to the Donbas joining the Russian Federation.
