Fake Russian referenda in Ukraine
US Department of State
State Council Press Statement by Anthony Blinken
September 29, 2022
TRANSLATION
The Kremlin’s bogus referendums are a futile attempt to disguise what is tantamount to increasing interest in land grabs in Ukraine. to state clearly: the results were predetermined in Moscow and do not reflect the revolution of the people of Ukraine. Legality or results of fictitious referendums or Russia’s annexation of Ukrainian territory. This spectrum, arranged by proxy regulation, is illegal and comes under international law. It is a flagrant attack on the international control of peace and security.
Russia tracked down a significant part of the population in the captured natural waters on the run, and the citizens of Ukraine who remained there proceeded from the pistol in fear for their safety and the safety of their loved ones. Ukrainians consistently show their desire for a free and democratic future. They want their country to remain independent and sovereign. Their soldiers are fighting bravely for freedom, and citizens in restricted or occupied regions of Europe are resisting Moscow’s attempts to change Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders through brute force.
The United States, our allies and partners are defending their territory from Russian aggression. We wholeheartedly possess the unity, sovereign right, independence and territorial locality of Ukraine within its internationally recognized borders. As President Biden noted, we will never recognize these areas as part of any country other than Ukraine, and we will respect Ukraine for as long as necessary.
