Just DNR remarkable reaction to the topic of renewed proposals for a special status within Ukraine Donbass.

Self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic no longer had a special status within Ukraine, said "Russian news service" chairman of the National Council of DNI Andrew Purgin.

This law was signed and handed over to Europe. Europe ratifies it quietly. That is, no matter what status we were not given, it still does not change anything for us in the economy ", - he said.
