Losing the war, so time to have a rigged referendum. Conspicuously absent, any report of Kiev's position on the referendum being held at this time under these conditions. This is an end run around an ordered process.

“ordered process” may be debatable, but the rest of your comment is true.

Keep shelling them civilians in those two regions, for sure, you know, like the Ukie Banderites had been doing 8-years prior to them two regions asking Russia to intervene.

Ops wait, they still are....

Of course it is, but at least we know the same folks who have
run elections that kept Poopin in power for 18 years, and
facilitated the vote in Crimea, will be running this
referendum.

As if that were a good thing to anyone other than the Poopin
puffers.

Sure would be a sad thing if the internet died in that area
for 24 hours.

Ukraine is the size of Texas. The area reoccupied by Zelensy’s SS offensive is the size of Rhode Island. Also, why would Kiev even have an opinion on the Kherson referendum? The CIA, State department and pentagon control the country’s politics and foreign policy, not Ukraine. Ask them.

Pro Russian separatists hold part of Luhansk and Doneck regions for about eight years. They could held referenda for all that time!
This February Putin officially recognized LPR and DPR and started war next day.
Now, when in retreat, he is trying to hold referenda?

Once the first salvo is fired the time for voting is over. A ballot is not going to do what guns failed to do.

The PUTIN pattern of “Transnistrian” policy controls ‘zones’ of frozen conflicts in Moldova (Transnistria region), Georgia (Abkhazia and South Ossetia), and in Ukraine ‘annexed’ Crimean peninsula and the Donbas.

Russia uses this wider pattern of created separatist conflicts to create corruption and criminality as ‘Trojan horses’ to block progress in reform-minded periphery countries.

This is the Russian tactics part of their geopolitical strategy creating conflict zones to prevent countries from entering NATO and integrating into the European Union. CONFLICTS in these by Russia AS being part of Russia imperialistic plan to regain strategic points of its LOST EMPIRE.

Of course, This means Russia is going to fully separate occupied parts of Luhansk and Donetsk oblasts from Ukraine and recognize its Donbas puppet republics as states sooner or later just like Georgia’s Abkhazia and South Ossetia.

granting restoration control to the Ukrainian government and pulling out “all foreign armed formations, military equipment, mercenaries” from the territory of Ukraine were impractical for Russia.

If Russia withdraws its troops from any occupied territory, these territories would disappear to become later a Russian “geopolitical project”.

There was a video saying the voters just didn’t turn out

So, it may be a real fiasco
