OTTAWA — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada will not recognize the results of elections held this week by Russian authorities in occupied parts of Ukraine.
He says the elections are"a cynical attempt to legitimize military conquest under the guise of democracy," and a violation of international law.
Local elections for Russian-installed legislatures began earlier this week in the regions of Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia.The votes have been denounced by Kyiv, the Council of Europe and other countries in the West.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 9, 2023.
