CORRECTED: Ukraine will 'defend its people' in annexation vote regions: Zelensky
Kyiv, Ukraine, Sept 27 (AFP) Sep 27, 2022
Ukraine will "defend" citizens in Moscow-held regions which authorities said voted overwhelmingly for a merger with Russia, President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Tuesday.

"We will act to protect our people: both in the Kherson region, in the Zaporizhia region, in the Donbas, in the currently occupied areas of the Kharkiv region, and in the Crimea," he said in a video posted on Telegram.

"This farce in the occupied territory cannot even be called an imitation of referendums."
