In early May, the deputy HEAD of the military-civilian administration of the region, Kirill Stremousov, said that the Kherson region intends to become one of the regions of Russia, and in terms of the pace of development, the region will resemble "something close to the Crimea." Later, Stremousov announced his intention to apply to President Vladimir Putin with a request to annex the Kherson region to Russia.

“This will be one single decree based on the appeal of the leadership of the Kherson region to Russian President Vladimir Putin, there will be a request to introduce the Kherson region into a full-fledged subject,” Stremousov specified.

According to him, the region "set a course" for integration into Russia, and an appeal to the president will become possible only after the completion of integration processes. Stremousov did not name specific dates for the preparation of the document.
