Naryshkin began by stepping lightly around the issue before recommending that Putin should move forward with a plan to recognize two Russia-led breakout regions of Ukraine before absorbing those regions into Russia. The exchange went as follows:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>Sergey Naryshkin: I would like to agree with what [unintelligible] said with his suggestion that we can give our western partners the last chance to offer them to force Kyiv to choose the peaceful path and to implement the Minsk agreements. Otherwise we have to make the decision we are discussing today.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Vladimir Putin: What do you mean otherwise? You want us to start negotiations? Or you want us to recognize the sovereignty? Just say it directly.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>SN: I would support the suggestion about recognition.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>VP: I will support or I am supporting?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>SN: I am supporting.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>VP: So yes or no? Just say it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>SN: Yes, I am supporting the suggestion about making Donetsk and Luhansk people\u2019s republics to make them part of the Russian federation.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>VP: That\u2019s not what we are talking about. That\u2019s not what we are discussing. We are talking about recognizing them as independent entities.

As WSJ reported:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>On Monday, Mr. Putin appeared to make the case for invading Russia\u2019s smaller neighbor, describing Ukraine as a tool being used by the West for confrontation with Russia that \u201cposes a very large threat\u201d to the country, he said.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Mr. Putin also accused Ukraine of taking a hostile stance toward Russian-controlled areas of Donbas and said the government in Kyiv wasn\u2019t willing to implement the Minsk cease-fire agreement signed after Ukrainian forces were routed in Donbas in 2015.
