Loaded up the annexations or “territories with his own people, paid them to stay , told them how to vote on referendums he himself called for, or interjected on when normal voting took place . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voters were asked "Do you support the Act of Declaration of Independence of Ukraine?"[2] The text of the Declaration was included as a preamble to the question. The referendum was called by the Parliament of Ukraine to confirm the Act of Independence, which was adopted by the Parliament on 24 August 1991.[3] Citizens of Ukraine expressed overwhelming support for independence. In the referendum, 31,891,742 registered voters (or 84.18% of the electorate) took part, and among them 28,804,071 (or 92.3%) voted "Yes".[2] On the same day, a presidential election took place. In the month up to the presidential election, all six candidates campaigned across Ukraine in favour of independence from the Soviet Union, and a "Yes" vote in the referendum. Leonid Kravchuk, the parliament chairman and de facto head of state, was elected to serve as the first President of Ukraine.[4] From 2 December 1991 onwards, Ukraine was globally recognized by other countries as an independent state.[5][6][7] Also on 2 December, the President of the Russian SFSR Boris Yeltsin recognized Ukraine as independent.[8][9][10][11] In a telegram of congratulations Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev sent to Kravchuk soon after the referendum, Gorbachev included his hopes for close Ukrainian cooperation and understanding in "the formation of a union of sovereign states".[12] Ukraine was the second-most powerful republic in the Soviet Union both economically and politically (behind Russia), and its secession ended any realistic chance of Gorbachev keeping the USSR together. By December 1991 all former Soviet Republics except the RSFSR[13] and the Kazakh SSR[13] had formally seceded from the Union.[14] A week after his election, Kravchuk joined with Yeltsin and Belarusian leader Stanislav Shushkevich in signing the Belavezha Accords, which declared that the Soviet Union had ceased to exist.[15] The USSR officially dissolved on 26 December.[16] Results[edit] The ballot paper used in the referendum, with the text of the Declaration of Independence printed on it. No-vote in % per Ukrainian Oblast Ukrainian media had converted en masse to the independence ideal. Polls showed 63% support for the "Yes" campaign in September 1991; that grew to 77% in the first week of October 1991 and 88% by mid-November 1991.[17] 55% of the ethnic Russians in Ukraine voted for independence.[18] Choice Votes % For 28,804,071 92.26 Against 2,417,554 7.74 Total 31,221,625 100.00 Valid votes 31,221,625 97.90 Invalid/blank votes 670,117 2.10 Total votes 31,891,742 100.00 Registered voters/turnout 37,885,555 84.18 Source: Nohlen & Stöver By region[edit] The Act of Independence was supported by a majority of participating voters in each of the 27 administrative regions of Ukraine: 24 oblasts, 1 autonomous republic, and 2 special municipalities (Kyiv City and Sevastopol City).[4] Voter turnout was lowest in Eastern and Southern Ukraine.[17] The six regions with the lowest percentage of "yes" votes were Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk, and Odesa Oblasts, Crimea, and Sevastopol; all of those regions still had a majority of registered voters marking their ballots "yes", except for Crimea and Sevastopol.

Popular Post Silent Man Posted June 24 Popular Post Share Posted June 24 I think it makes 0 sense to have a conversation with this Armchair troll. He/she is a typical ruskie troll pushing the typical pootin's agenda. But as an Ukrainian, I would like to use this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude for all support from Canadians I feel everyday during these 2+extremely tough years. I am working for a big USA based company and I have to travel regularly to out offices in US and I feel the same support down there as well. People are making donations and supporting Ukraine in many different ways. So, huge THANK YOU for all moral support I feel here. 3 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JIAHN Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 Here is something else to wrap your pretty little head around.......... The Crimean Tatars had their own history in the modern period. They formed the basis of the Crimean Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, which was set up by the Soviet government in 1921. This republic was dissolved in 1945, however, after Soviet leader Joseph Stalin accused the approximately 200,000 Crimean Tatars of having collaborated with the Germans during World War II. As a result, the Crimean Tatars were deported en masse to Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, where their use of the Tatar language was forbidden. They regained their civil rights in 1956 under the de-Stalinization program of Nikita Khrushchev, but they were not allowed to return to Crimea, which had been incorporated into the Ukrainian S.S.R. in 1954. It was not until the early 1990s that many Crimean Tatars, taking advantage of the breakup of the Soviet central government’s authority, began returning to settle in Crimea after nearly five decades of internal exile. In the early 21st century, they numbered about 250,000. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit more on that: After the annexation of Crimea by Russian Federation, Crimean Tatars were persecuted and discriminated by Russian authorities, including cases of torture, arbitrary detentions, forced disappearances by Russian security forces and courts. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimean_Tatars 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
