“Parliament will also have a role in ratifying the annexation.”
And it will be recognized and accepted by absolutely no other country. Not even Russia’s putative allies are recognizing and accepting the “annexation” as legitimate or legal. Well, there’s you, I guess.
Russia doesn’t care if any nations accept or not - and neither do the people who voted for the annexation. Why should they? Most nations will just stay neutral when all is said and done.....after all it wasn’t THEIR military soldiers dying on the streets....right?
Not true. Watch and see..I can think of a handful of countries just off the top of my head who will accept it.
The global South supports Putin.
So let me just take a guess..
Iran,Syria, Brazil,China, Venezuela, South Africa and much of the African continent, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan,and Serbia.
Highly possible - Argentina, India, Chile, Peru.
It will be fun.
BTW, Serbia has reported a slew of countries that have withdrawn recognition of Kosovo.
