MOSCOW, May 13 - RIA Novosti. Kherson region could become part of Russia under the Crimean scheme - to hold a referendum on independence and entry into the Russian Federation, after which the Russian parliament would consider this issue - this opinion was expressed by the first deputy head of the State Duma Committee on State Construction and Legislation Yuri Sinelshchikov in an interview with RIA Novosti.

"Everything should be as it was in Crimea - first a referendum on recognition of independence, a referendum on joining Russia (or within the framework of one referendum), then the Russian parliament should resolve this issue, and then the treaty," the parliamentarian believes.

According to the politician, it is better to take all these possible steps after the end of hostilities. The expression of will should be objective and independent - "independent of their own emotions - today the people can say one thing, in military conditions, and tomorrow another," he stressed.

Sinelshchikov believes that the referendum should be held, despite the fact that its results may not be recognized abroad. "It's not in the international community, but in the residents of the Kherson region - do they want it themselves or not? And who knows, maybe they don't want it? You need to find out, it's primarily their will. Of course, a referendum is needed, everyone else is auxiliary things," he stated.

Earlier, Speaker of the Federation Council Valentina Matvienko said that only the residents of the Kherson region themselves can determine what their future will be like, the Russian Federation will agree with this decision.
