The US Embassy in Ukraine announced the non-recognition of elections in the Crimea

"We do not recognize the results of the so-called" elections "held by the occupation authorities of Russia," the report said.

American diplomats condemned Russia's "illegal actions" in Crimea.

“We reaffirm our unwavering support for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine,” the embassy added.

We do not visibly recognize the results of the so-called “vibrations” that were carried out by the occupation of the power of Russia. We are in danger of illegitimate Russia in Krima, and now we are not afraid of our sovereignty and sovereignty of Ukraine and Ukraine. https://t.co/1lsKRkmc6W

According to RIA Novosti, United Russia is gaining more than 54.3% of the vote in Crimean parliamentary elections.

In second place is the Liberal Democratic Party, which is gaining 17%, the Communist Party - 8.2%.

“Kryminform” writes that “United Russia”, following the results of voting on party lists, will receive eight deputy seats in the Legislative Assembly of Sevastopol.

September 8 in Russia, elections were held in government at various levels. Ukrainian Foreign Ministry protested over local elections in Crimea.

In Crimea, they indicated that residents of the peninsula choose the republican authorities, the Crimean parliament, and local governments.

Crimea became the Russian region after a referendum held in March 2014, in which most residents spoke out for reunification with Russia.
