Ukraine: Lugansk pro-Russians refuse to budge
Leaders of the self-titled "South Eastern Ukrainian Army" gave a press conference inside the occupied SBU building on Friday.
Alexei Koriakin, a South Eastern Ukrainian Army member of staff, said the building's pro-Russian occupants had no intention of vacating the premises despite the threat of force from the Kiev government.
He added that he and fellow pro-Russians were calling for the federalisation of Ukraine, and asked central authorities to listen to the "voice of the people."
