The UN Security Council was going to hold a meeting on the recognition of "illegitimate" referendums in the Donbass and in the regions of the former Ukraine

The UN Security Council decided to hold a meeting at which it is supposed to recognize as illegitimate the referendums held in the republics of Donbass, as well as in the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions. The day before, the Secretary General of the organization, António Guterres, announced that “referendums cannot be accepted,” and added that they allegedly do not comply with the UN Charter.

In this regard, the Russian Foreign Ministry hastened to remind Mr. Guterres that the will of the people is the highest form of democracy, which itself is protected by the United Nations. It was noted that in connection with the statements about the “inconsistency of referendums with international law”, the Secretary General, in fact, refuses the peoples to demonstrate their will by direct voting.



The Permanent Mission of Russia to the UN noted that if the UN Secretary General is familiar with the charter of the organization, then he should be aware of the prescribed right of the nation to self-determination and the existence of Article 97 of the Charter that the Secretary General is the chief administrative officer of the organization. It is noted that the Secretary General, on the basis of the UN Charter, does not have the right to make political statements on behalf of the entire organization, since the organization is neither subordinate to him, nor subordinate to anyone else on the basis of its same charter.

The Russian Permanent Mission accused Guterres of violating the UN Charter also in the sense that, on the basis of Article 100, the Secretary General and any other officials of the organization must refrain from actions that could affect their position as these same officials.

It should be noted that only after the meeting on the referendums held in the UN Security Council will the issue of leakage in the SP and SP-2 gas pipelines be considered. The Russian delegation expressed its regret on this occasion, noting that the issue was urgent.

          Yes, for good times they play such games for a vote to raise the issue of incompatibility with the position held for violating the UN Charter. It is clear that this will also be vetoed. By the way, don't they want to hold a conviction for blowing up gas pipelines?

            Want but later. The agenda is dictated not by the UN, but by mattresses, which have long made the UN their pocket toy.

      The American puppet of Portuguese origin is in no hurry to hold a meeting on the terrorist attack at SP-1,2, but it is in a hurry to recognize the referendums as illegitimate - a "model" of UN impartiality and fulfillment of its obligations under the Charter of this organization. Full bucket.

      if the UN Secretary General is familiar with the charter of the organization,

      It seems that he is not familiar with the Charter. Only reads US cheat sheets. And if "referendums are not legitimate", then cancel all decisions at the behest of referendums, namely, the independence of the Baltic states, Moldova and other republics of the destroyed USSR, and their accession to the EU. )))

      The Russian Foreign Ministry believes that there are Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporozhye and Kherson people. Obviously, they were too lazy to open the definition of the people in the dictionary. However, this does not bother anyone in a state where the force of law has been replaced by the law of force. I just do not understand how to recognize the vote if it was not held in the entire territory. (part of Donetsk and Lugansk regions under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine)

        Well, these are trifles. They held the same vote in the districts of the Zaporozhye region, which are under the control of the Republic of Armenia, although the Zaporozhye agglomeration, where before the war 60% of the population of the Zaporozhye region lived under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I already wrote the other day that these referendums are meaningless and no one knows them. China, which with horror imagines a similar referendum in Taiwan, India, for which a referendum in Kashmir is a nightmare, or the Philippines, which crushes any attempts at separatism in Mindanao, will oppose even louder than Europe. Russia simply had to declare the union of these territories by the right of the strong.

        "... The pianist Lisitsa will arrive from Portugal in the Russian Federation to vote in a referendum ..." - does this tell you something?
        Whoever wanted to vote.
        Please do without the usual "you don't understand, they can't come because they won't be allowed in by the Armed Forces of Ukraine."
        Now reap the fruits of your hataskrainichestvo and be angry with yourself for your passivity and indifference. Those who "couldn't" vote are satisfied with any government, even the Nazis were satisfied. No problem. It's about turnout.
        And then - the counting of the votes of the voters who appeared. That's all.

          Putin is trying to slip us this accession as a good job - but this is a piece of trash. Then it turns out that even the Savings Bank of the Russian Federation and the Russian Sports Federation do not want to recognize new regions, as we have already seen in the Crimea.

            I suggested not pulling on my favorite "you don't understand, they can't come because they won't be allowed in by the Armed Forces of Ukraine."
            Okay, let me explain. Of them:
            a) part supports Russia. I understand that you have no regrets about such an electorate. They won anyway!
            b) they could (with a strong desire) leave through the corridors controlled by Kyiv. To vote. Why didn't you leave? APU afraid? Why are they afraid of their beloved authorities (it’s not pleasant for you to read this, I understand ...)? Or don't want to? - then back to my answer above.
            Am I speaking formally? Yes. Elections are a formalization of the opinion of the people.

            no one is giving you anything. Rather, you slipped the so-called Ukrainians an unviable ideology.

            And yet, I have such a question - if you do not recognize the fact of the referendum, so to speak "wanted to spit", then why did you suddenly start to worry? wink

              And why then only in 4 areas the referendum is arranged? Let's announce that the referendum was held throughout Ukraine, just who wanted to, he flew from Portugal to the Red Maidan - and voted. The people of Kiev are 100 percent in favor - all 12 people.

              And the fact that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are advancing - and we are throwing the population at the mercy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - does not bother you - the event was held for show.
