The council made the decision after President Vladimir Putin asked the body's permission to use the military abroad, specifically in the breakaway regions of Ukraine’s Donbas region that Russia on Monday recognized as “independent,” the Turkish news agency added.
Speaking to the chamber, Deputy Defense Minister Nikolay Pavlov made it clear that permission is necessary to organize what Russia calls “peacekeeping missions” in Donbas' separatist-held regions of Donetsk and Luhansk.
