Ukraine calls Russian presidential election a “farce” and calls to reject the result. Even before the vote was held from March 15 to 17, Ukraine launched an appeal to the international community.

“Ukraine calls on foreign states and international organizations to refrain from recognizing the results of this “election”, organized in particular on the Ukrainian territories occupied by Russia,” said a statement from the Foreign Ministry of Ukraine on Thursday. The vote was scheduled for March 15-17 in Russia.
