Sanctions will not be lifted from Russia after the end of the conflict on Ukraine, military-political commentator Mikhail Onufrienko is sure.

At the same time, according to him, the recognition of the new territories of Russia will still follow, since the West is not interested in the issue of Ukraine's integrity.

"The territory of the former Ukrainian SSR is of interest only to us," Onufrienko said on Sputnik radio.
