The Ministry for Reintegration of the Temporary Occupied Territories of Ukraine listed eight countries that had provided their observers for sham referendums, which Russia has been conducting on the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.

Quote: "Russian occupiers’ authorities are making exceptional attempts these days to conduct their sham referendums on the temporarily occupied territories at any cost. And they insist that those referendums will be transparent and legitimate. They have even invited foreign observers for this purpose. 

The Ministry for Reintegration and all concerned authorities, including law enforcement agencies, already know their names. Those are representatives of Russia itself, as well as Belarus, Syria, Egypt, Brasil, Venezuela, Uruguay, Togo, and South Africa. In fact, they [those countries - ed.] are participating in a collective crime against the sovereign independent state of Ukraine."

Details: The Ministry [of Reintegration] has pointed out that, apart from a name list of all participants of this crime, Ukrainian authorities also have exact addresses of all so-called polling stations, the quantity of so-called voters attached to those polling stations, detailed routes of occupiers for collecting votes, and even their car numbers and drivers’ personal data.

The Ministry of Reintegration calls on the law enforcement agencies to investigate evidence that concerns conducting sham referendums – in particular, the legitimacy of entry, stay, and operation of so-called foreign observers on the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories.

Quote: "We are appealing to foreigners: everyone who dares to indulge criminals become criminals themselves! You will not be able to avoid responsibility!"

Background:

  • Kremlin puppets in the occupied parts of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia Oblasts announced that they had started "referendums" on joining Russia.
  • The Russian occupying authorities in Alchevsk counted referendum "votes" cast by people who either were in captivity or had died, said Serhii Haidai, the head of Luhansk Oblast Military Administration.
  • A video shared on social media showed armed Russian soldiers going door-to-door searching for people to take part in the sham referendum in Zaporizhzhia Oblast.
