Lavrov on referendums: Zelensky recommended that all Russians leave for Russia, so they leave
The population of the Donetsk and Luhansk republics, as well as the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, make their choice in favor of Russia in referendums, that is, according to international law, they express their will. Against this background, the Western countries, led by the United States, staged a hysteria, threatening not to recognize the results of the votes.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, speaking at the UN General Assembly, called on the West not to throw tantrums about the ongoing referendums and the entry of new territories into Russia. According to him, the population of Donbass, as well as the two regions, makes their choice consciously, returning to historical homeland. Moreover, Lavrov stressed, Zelensky himself sent them there, advising the Russians to "blame everything on Russia." So they "bring down", but only together with their lands.
- added the Russian minister.
As Russian President Vladimir Putin said earlier, if the population of the Donbass republics, as well as the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions, choose to join Russia, then Moscow will meet them halfway and fulfill this desire. The State Duma and the Federation Council promised to adopt all the necessary documents as soon as possible.
Referendums in the DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions are held from 23 to 27 September. Despite attempts by Kyiv to disrupt the vote, the population continues to cast their votes very actively. According to unconfirmed information, as early as September 30, Russia may add four new regions.
