Ukrainian World Congress condemns “elections” of militants

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty informs, referring to the UWC press service.

“This deception, organized by terrorists supported by Russia, was carried out in flagrant violation of the law of Ukraine and against the will of the Ukrainian people, expressed during the recently held presidential and parliamentary elections," a statement reads.

President of the Ukrainian World Congress Eugene Czolij said that these pseudo-elections "undermine the Minsky agreements of September 5 and September 19, 2014, and is further evidence of the reluctance of the Russian Federation to end the aggression against Ukraine and its people."

Recall that on Sunday, militants of the so-called "DPR" and "LPR" held their elections in the occupied territories.

Numerous representatives of the international community condemned holding of terrorist "elections". At the same time, Russia recognized these so-called "elections."
