The United States has described the concluded Russia referendum in Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics in Southern and Eastern Ukraine as a sham.

The president of the United States Joe Biden who reacted to the development said the US would not recognize such republics annexed illegitimately by Russia nation.

Biden added that the concluded referendum in Eastern and Southern Ukraine was arm-twisted, noting that it falls below the world’s standard of conducting the referendum.

The American president said the Referendum ought to have been monitored by other world power countries, but since it was not allowed to be monitored by nonstate actors, it was deemed null and void.

He again warned Putin not to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine following such a concocted referendum in an attempt to steal the territories of Ukraine.

Biden said the US would directly react with devastating effects on Moscow and other Russian states.
