“The U.S. Will Never Recognize the Referendum Results,” Joe Biden

The United States will impose "quick and severe" economic sanctions in response to the referendums held in Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine. This was announced by U.S. President Joe Biden. The information was provided by RIA Novosti.

President Biden noted that countries will work with allied states and partners to impose additional rapid and harsh economic costs on the Russian Federation.

According to Biden, the U.S. will never recognize the results of the referendums and will continue to support Ukraine. He had previously referred to the referendums as a sham, describing them as a pretext for forcibly annexing Ukrainian territories.
