Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urges the world to condemn "pseudo-referendums" as Kremlin proxies began voting on annexation by Russia in Moscow-held areas of Ukraine. "The world will react absolutely justly to pseudo-referendums -- they will be unequivocally condemned," Zelensky says in his daily address to the nation. Four provinces in Ukraine that are fully or partially controlled by Russia -- Donetsk and Lugansk in the east as well as Kherson and Zaporizhzhia in the south -- are holding votes on whether to be annexed by Moscow.  The ballots have been dismissed as a "sham" by Kyiv and its Western allies. — AFP
