After the warning for a referendum in the occupied regions of Ukraine, the head of the North Atlantic Alliance, Jens Stoltenberg, declared:
“False referendums have no legitimacy and do not change the nature of Russia’s aggressive war in Ukraine. It is a new escalation of the Putin War. The international community must condemn this violation of international law, and strengthen the support for Ukraine, ”the NATO leader wrote.
Otherwise regarding these warnings of pro-Russian separatists that it will join Russia’s occupied regions, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has also reacted.
He stressed that despite the threats from pro-Russian separatists, the course of war and the purpose of his nation will not change-the liberation of the entire territory of Ukraine.
Otherwise the People’s Council in Donetsk’s self -proclaimed People’s Republic has agreed to hold a “referendum on the entry of DPR into the Russian Federation” starting at the end of this week.
DPR leader Denis Pushil said the vote will be “in a mixed format – face to face and in the distance – taking into account security issues. One day it will be scheduled for personal voting, ”he said.
