Lithuanian Foreign Minister Linas Linkevicius states that the Kremlin continues to destabilize the situation in eastern Ukraine by holding the so-called “elections”, and called for sanctions against “organizers of this farce.”

“As world honors victims of WWI, Kremlin keeps destabilising eastern Ukraine: illegitimate ‘elections‘ by so-called ‘Donetsk & Luhansk people‘s republics‘ in Ukraine‘s territory- another violation of Minsk Agr. & Int. law. Sanctions against organizers of this farce should follow,“ the minister wrote on Twitter.

The Lithuanian foreign minister commented on a statement by the Lithuanian Foreign Ministry that “Lithuania condemns the illegitimate ‘elections‘ by so-called ‘Donetsk & Luhansk people‘s republics‘ in Ukraine‘s territory.”

As reported, pro-Russian militants in Donbas held the so-called "elections" in the occupied territories of Donetsk and Luhansk regions on November 11.
