Original Note:
The “decision” Nebenzia references were sham referendums. The so-called votes, which took place at gunpoint in the presence of Russian soldiers and their proxies, are in no way credible. The whole exercise was illegal under international law. https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2022/09/russia-ukraine-illegitimate-results-of-sham-referenda-must-not-enable-illegal-annexation-of-occupied-areas/
