UKRAINE – The referendums planned by Moscow with a view to annexing additional territories from Ukraine will have no impact, Ukrainian Foreign Ministrer Dmytro Kuleba said Tuesday. The statement was made after separatists from the Ukrainian regions of Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk and Luhansk announced referendums for the unification with Russia, between September 23 and 27. Ukraine’s reaction to this has been very firm – it will continue to fight to free these territories from Russian occupation.
