Poland plans to hold referendums on annexing western Ukrainian territories, according to the head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service on Wednesday.

As a part of the plan, the Polish intelligence services leaked the information about the possibility of holding a referendum in the Lviv region to Ukraine’s media, Sergey Naryshkin said in an interview with the Russian state-run RIA news agency.

“The reaction of significant regional players and ordinary citizens is supposed to be carefully monitored and analyzed,” he said.

Earlier, Naryshkin claimed that Warsaw “is forcing” preparations for the annexation of the territories of Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, and most of the Ternopil region of Ukraine.
