On the 24th of February 2022 Russian launched what it calls a special military operation in Ukraine this came as a major escalation in the already ongoing Russo Ukrainian war which began in 2014 and after seven months of intense fighting Russia has captured four major regions of Ukraine after a series of referenda Russia now claims that eastern regions of darkness in the house and certain regions of separation and Carson have now voted in favour of joining Russia and the Russian state Duma will approve a treaty to formally incorporate these regions into Russian territory soon the hurried referendum by Russia yielded decisive 2000 it's fever at least that's what Russia claims although called a sham referendum by the West Russia is very serious about annexing these regions it has even flashed the nuclear card more than once to deter any Ukrainian and western misadventures on what will soon be Russian territory so it is unmistakably true that if Russia annexes the four Ukrainian regions Putin could portray Ukrainian attempts to recapture them as an attack on Russia itself as reported by Russia the Donuts People's Republic recorded 99.23% of the vote in favour of Russia meanwhile .62% only stood against the amalgamation in the luhansk People's Republic the vote in favour of Russia stood at 98.42% in the South Russian controller Kirsten recorded 87.05% of the vote in favor whereas Zaporizhia recorded 93.11% of the vote in favour of joining Russia the head of the upper House of the Russian parliament said that it could consider the incorporation of the four the four partially occupied regions on the 4th of October and this comes exactly three days before President Vladimir Putin celebrates his 70th birthday Dmitry Medvedev who serves as deputy chairman of Russia Security Council proclaimed the results are clear welcome home to Russia within the capture territories Russian installed officials took ballot boxes from house to house in what Ukraine and the West said was an illegitimate coercive exercise to create a legal pretext for political control the West says that it will continue helping Ukraine fight Russia however Moscow has again warned the United states against arming Ukraine Russia's US envoy Anatoly Antonov said in instigating Kiev continue using the military equipment received from the West Washington does not realize the riskiness of its actions are steps to defend the fatherland will be firm and decisive on possibly losing 15% of ukraine's territory the Ukrainian presidential adviser said we're supposed to accept this model or else a nuclear weapon will be used this is nonsense and it is unacceptable we'll continue our work yes there are certain risks The US representative to the United nations ambassador Linda Thomas Greenfield said that the United states will introduce resolution at the UN Security Council calling on member states not to recognize any change to Ukraine and obligating Russia to withdraw its troops Linda Thomas we feel said Russia's sham referendum if accepted will open a Pandora's box that we cannot close clearly the West rejects russias move to annex Ukrainian territories and will continue its proxy war with Russia after the United states the UK spoke clearly the West rejects Russia's move to annex Ukrainian territories and will continue its proxy war with Russia after the United states the UK spoke to britain's deputy UN ambassador James carucci said any referenda held under these conditions the barrel of a gun can never be remotely close to free or fair however the UNSC which has met over 20 times on Ukraine this year has been unable to take meaningful action because Russia is a permanent veto wielding member along with the United states France Britain and China so ukraine's allies don't really have much power to wield against Russia at the United nations apart from bringing in resolutions and organizing talks changjun who is China's ambassador to the United nations told the Security Council meeting on Tuesday that isolation and sanctions would only lead to a dead end after the United states called for the body to condemn Russia's referendum in occupied regions of Ukraine in 2014 Crimea voted to split away from Ukraine through a similar Russian referendum that most of the world has condemned as illegal voting showed that 95.5% of the ballots were in favor of joining Russia Moscow has been controlling the territory ever since so is Russia using the German model to annex more Ukrainian territories and will this further raise the stakes in an already heated wall.
