One hundred states opposed the Crimean referendum

369


The UN General Assembly adopted a resolution recognizing the referendum in Crimea as illegal. The document was supported by an overwhelming majority.
The resolution was voted 100 states, 11 - against, 58 - abstained. The position of the Russian Federation on the “Resolution on Ukraine” was supported by: Armenia, Belarus, Bolivia, Cuba, North Korea, Nicaragua, Sudan, Syria, Venezuela and Zimbabwe.

Thus, the General Assembly recognized the referendum held by residents of the Crimea as null and void and considered that it could not serve as a basis for changing the status of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.

Also, the General Assembly called on the entire international community not to recognize changes in the status of Crimea and Sevastopol and to refrain from any actions that could be interpreted as recognition of changes in this status.

    referendum held in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea
    and the city of Sevastopol on 16 on March 2014, was not authorized by Ukraine,
    But only now, for some reason, everyone unanimously forgot that the coup in Ukraine itself took place without any referenda, votes, or other constitutional rubbish ... Why does an armed seizure of power have legal force, and a peaceful referendum with the overwhelming will of the people of Crimea does not?


    But because the Anglo-Saxons and those like them are cunning f------------s, if something is unprofitable for them, then this "something" immediately receives the status of illegal.

    If you carefully look at the screenshot of the list given at the beginning of the article, you can also consider countries such as Zimbabwe, Vanuatu, Zambia, etc. Of course, these and similar countries play decisive roles in world politics. Especially in Europe! Especially Nepal!
