Original Note:
There has never been a free or fair election in which "people voted to leave Ukraine." Russia has staged fake elections in some occupied areas of Ukraine, in 2014 and in 2022. The 2022 results were condemned and rejected by the UN General Assembly, by a vote of 143 to 5. https://www.wilsoncenter.org/blog-post/referendum-violence-and-humiliation-southeastern-ukraine https://www.voanews.com/a/un-general-assembly-rejects-russia-s-referenda-annexation-in-ukraine-/6787420.html
