Kallas propune sancțiuni pentru alegerile ruse din Ucraina

European Union's foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas proposed sanctions against individuals involved in organizing elections in Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories. The elections, held from September 18-20, were deemed a violation of international law by the EU, which stated that their results lack legal validity. Kallas criticized the elections as a setback for Russian democracy, highlighting the Kremlin's suppression of dissent and exclusion of anti-war candidates. The ruling party, United Russia, is expected to secure a significant victory, with preliminary results showing it received 57.5% of the votes. Other parties, while distinct, generally align with Kremlin policies.
