The quote is taken from the Russian media Don24. This quote was used to provide a perception of the democratic presidential elections held in Russia from 15 to 17 March 2024. The presence of international observers legitimizes the elections held both in Russia and in Russia-occupied Ukrainian territories.
In the USA, each state has a different electoral system. [...] Here we saw how open this process is. I would like to emphasize the importance of these elections for Donbas, because the residents of this territory are voting for the first time. [...] This topic will become important for debates not only in Russia, but also around the world. [Translated from Russian]
