Quote from RIA_Kremlinpool: "Putin is convening a major Federation Council in the Kremlin to discuss security in Russia's regions. The discussion will be about Donbas, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson oblasts."

Details: Kremlin-aligned media also reported that foreign ambassadors from the US, EU, Denmark, Norway, Mexico, and Syria, with whom Putin has a separate event planned, will arrive at the Kremlin on 5 April.

In addition, the Russian dictator is scheduled to meet with Alexander Lukashenko, the self-proclaimed President of Belarus, on 5 April.

They will reportedly discuss security issues and, presumably, the deployment of Russian tactical nuclear weapons in Belarus.
