Vladimir Putin and heads of DPR, LPR, Zaporozhye and Kherson regions sign treaty to join Russia

Russian President Vladimir Putin makes a statement during the ceremony for treaties to be signed with the Lugansk and Donetsk People’s Republics (LPR and DPR), Kherson and Zaporozhye, in Moscow on Friday, September 30.
It comes after the local authorities in the LPR and DPR, as well as those set up in Kherson and Zaporozhye after they came under Russian control, held referenda on joining Russia between 23-27 September.
Central Election Committee representatives reported that those who took part in the votes decided overwhelmingly in favour of the proposal.
