Moscow Examines Kiev’s Note Refusing Russian Legislative Vote in Ukraine

Moscow is deliberating a response to Kiev’s official note declaring that it would be impossible to hold Russian legislative elections at its diplomatic missions in Ukraine this week, a source in the Russian Foreign Ministry told RIA Novosti on Monday.



Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko instructed Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin late last week to inform Russia about the "impossibility of conducting Russian elections on Ukrainian territory" scheduled for Sunday, September 18.

“We have received the note, we will now examine it and a issue a corresponding statement,” the source said. Polling stations have been prepared for opening in the Russian Embassy in Kiev, as well as consulates in Odesa, Lviv and Kharkiv. Additionally, the Russian Central Election Commission and the Foreign Ministry jointly called on Kiev to ensure security at Russian diplomatic establishments during the parliamentary vote.
