Without ballots and at gunpoint: how is the pseudo-referendum in Mariupol

24.09.2022

Mariupol, Donetsk region

The occupiers continue to force people to "vote". No legal procedures, of course, are followed. Tables for "voting" are placed right in the yards and squares. According to residents, the cities do not have ballots. People just write their last name on white sheets. In order for everyone to leave the "correct" answer, military men with weapons are everywhere. Of course, the "referendum" is a fake event and has no legal significance
