The US special representative for Ukraine Kurt Volker said that the elections scheduled for November of this year in the self-proclaimed republics of Donbass are illegitimate and violate the Minsk agreements, the German edition of Deutsche Welle writes.

Walker: "Separatist" elections in the Donbass are illegitimate




In his interview to DW, Volker, in particular, said that the elections for “pro-Russian separatists” in Donbas “quasi-republics” appointed for November are illegitimate and violate the logic of the Minsk process. According to the US special representative for Ukraine, there are no “security conditions” in these territories, especially since following the Minsk agreements, these “pseudo-republics” should disappear, since the territory will return under the control of Ukraine. When these territories become Ukrainian again, then elections there will be legitimate, Volker added.

At the same time, Volker believes that there will be no progress in peace negotiations for a long time, because “Moscow does not want to make any efforts to achieve peace and waits for the elections in Ukraine to end.”

Earlier it was reported that in the self-proclaimed republics of Donbass elections are scheduled: in the DPR - the heads of the republic and parliament, and in the LPR - the heads of the republic and the people's council. The voting day is scheduled for November this year.

        It would be great if the DPR and LPR united as Germany, for example, in the FRD - the Federal Republic of Donbas or DDR - the Donbass Democratic Republic! hi

      Yes, he is, who is he? US Special Representative for Ukraine? And there is no representative of Gabon in Ukraine, a special envoy of the Cape Verde Islands in Ukraine. We should also hear their opinion.

    The United States talks about legitimacy. How is this even possible. Mr. Volker came to the Black Sea. You cannot visit your bases in cities of Russian military glory. And you can’t see the Donbass. Neither you nor your shale companies.

    Kurt Walker stated

    In general, the mission of this gentleman is to communicate with representatives of both sides of the conflict, find common ground and put them at the negotiating table. He never visited the territory of LDNR all the time. And never met with the leadership of the republics. He only in Petyuny muffles sugar in his mouth! What can he even say there ???

      Well ... he's an American. In their opinion, they can do anything. They can impose sanctions on a court in The Hague, they can send anyone to Ukraine and dictate how everyone lives there ...
      they can smash the whole BV into caresses, send millions of refugees to Europe and say that it was ... request
      ..if it rains over the Pentagon, then it will be sanctioned by the clouds, ..... this is the United States! - The main gopnik of the planet. lol

    For this, the murder of Zakharchenko, the shelling of residential areas and the "toad jumps" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (according to the US-Ukraine) fit perfectly into this logic.

    No, let's go according to the Yugoslav scenario!
    In the Donbass, people are oppressed, people as part of a totalitarian state, do not want to live, are subjected to genocide, therefore, please be a separate state, and to guarantee peace, we will place a Russian military base there.

    Well, if once again under pressure from Moscow, for the sake of the Minsk agreements, the elections are canceled, then unfortunately it turns out that our authorities agree with this typical representative of a brazen state ...

    Idiocy. A person does not have the right to move a chest of drawers in his house without the permission of the United States - this is not legitimate. This has already reached the point where the entire planet of US ownership and without the permission of the United States - a blade of grass can not grow. God is already jealous of the sovereignty of the United States.

    Someone was waiting for another reaction?
    The Civil War Inflating Oversight Representative could not say otherwise.
    90% of his statements are not about compromises, but about how the other side thinks incorrectly. This way is not to peace

    "I am modest to ask," land ", your opinion -" Baby! Your place is near the bucket "! Is it in a figurative or literal sense of" words "? If in a figurative - he is still next to him and is. If literally - so they are going to close the International Tribunal in The Hague. There is generally a difficult situation. "hamburgers" stopped eating, or they switched to kvass. "Pike vests" in such a situation "would not put a finger in anyone's mouth."

      I am sure the "land" that you, like us, even the transport of the OSCE is seen off as invaders. And not everyone who lives in Donbass knows about Volker, for many he is generally a dummy that exists in the virtual space.

    Whose cow would mumble ... Yes, the USA is the very first separatists in the world who, if not they, declared their independence from England and even fought a little (and Russia, by its kindness, supported the US separatists)! And now, the most important lawbreakers are teaching us to live, it’s time for this Mr. Volker to study at least a short course in American history, and then blame others for his own vices!
