The Russian occupiers in the occupied territories of Donetsk, Luhansk Oblasts and Melitopol reported that they had started so-called "referendums" on joining the Russian Federation.
Residents of the regions will "vote" for 5 days - until September 27.
Residents of Kherson and Zaporizhia regions, LPR/DPR will be asked if they want to create an "independent state" and then become part of Russia.
At the same time, the occupiers have already made public their knee-jerk results of support — from 91% in the Donetsk region to 80% in the Kherson region.
But Ukraine will soon return there and return all its lands.
Ukraine and the absolute majority of Western countries have declared that the results of pseudo-referendums will not be recognized. The President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi also drew attention to the fact that the "voting" and the probable annexation of Ukrainian events will not affect the process of their removal from the Armed Forces.
