"Russia will have to fight with all former Soviet republics" - Russian Duma deputy Fyodorov

Yevgeny Fyodorov, a State Duma deputy from the "United Russia" party, has raised concerns about the possibility of future conflicts between Russia and its former Soviet republics, describing these nations as "disputed territories."

Fyodorov asserted that the secession of each of these republics from the USSR had been "illegal," laying the groundwork for potential conflicts in the future, SIA referes to Russian media.

"All former republics sooner or later go to conflict or war with Russia. This is a matter of theory. Georgia has already fought, Ukraine. This fully applies to Armenia as well," Fyodorov noted in his statement.

He cited Belarus as an exception currently not engaged in conflict, while highlighting the ongoing hostilities involving Georgia and Ukraine. Fyodorov also included Armenia in the list of nations that could potentially become embroiled in disputes with Russia.

The deputy suggested that diplomatic efforts could help avert military conflicts with these former Soviet republics, emphasizing the importance of pursuing peaceful resolutions.

Fyodorov has a history of advocating for the revision of decisions related to the recognition of the independence of former Soviet republics. Last year, he initiated efforts to cancel the recognition of Lithuania's independence, asserting that this move would oppose Lithuania's NATO membership.

He argued that Lithuania's independence declaration had violated the USSR's law regarding the withdrawal of republics from the Union due to the absence of a referendum on leaving the Soviet Union.

Throughout the years, Fyodorov has consistently referred to the independence of post-Soviet republics as "illegal"
