RUSSIAN STAMPS AND POSTCARD, issued in April 2022, purportedly were released by the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) and the Luhansk People's Republic (LPR).
That said, this block is not considered to be 'legal' or valid postage since only Russia recognises these regions, not the World Postal Union. Nevertheless they make for interesting momentos of this conflict.
Supposedly the State Unitary Enterprise of the LPR Post put into circulation this block of artistic postage stamps "Don't Leave Our Own!" dedicated to Russia's "special military operation" to liberate the Luhansk and Donetsk People's Republics.
On the camouflage background of the block stamps, a white letter Z is depicted. This has become a symbol of support for the participants in this special military operation in the Donbas and Ukraine; photographs of hostilities are placed on the margins of the block with the text: "We did not start this war, but we must end it..." Strength V to the truth!", "For the victory!", and "Thank you, brothers!".
The block with the format of 110 mm x 85 mm was issued with a circulation of three thousand copies. Block price - 77 rubles. The stamp format is 45 mm x 35 mm.
As for the postcard, the babushka with the old Soviet flag and Red Army in the background says a lot about the Russian mindset in the current Russo-Ukrainian War.
Don't get me wrong. My interest is purely a philatelic and historical one, nothing political, nothing more.
