Defence Intelligence of Ukraine informs that the leadership of the russian ministry of defence has allowed servicemen participating in the so-called special military operation to vote for putin without even going to the “polling stations”. This makes it much easier for the “election commissions” to falsify the results.

According to the latest instructions of the main military-political department of the russian federation, the criteria for identifying voters from among military personnel have been simplified to the extent that they do not need to physically participate in the voting. A passport or military ID is no longer required to prove their identity – even a photocopy of their documents is sufficient.

It is obvious that in this way, russian “election commissions” will try to increase the number of putin’s voters by involving the so-called “dead souls” in the “voting”. In particular, along with existing military personnel, they plan to include those who have recently been killed, disappeared or captured.

Given that Ukrainian defenders, according to official data, inflict numerous casualties on the russian invaders on the territory of Ukraine every day, the number of those who would “support” putin in this way could be quite significant.

The Kremlin is taking a whole range of measures to fake the so-called “presidential elections in russia”. Although it is obvious to everyone that neither the fact of these elections nor their results are a mean of legitimising putin’s rule either in russia or abroad.
