Official representative of Russia’s Foreign Ministry Mariya Zakharova commented on the second round of the presidential elections in Ukraine on her Facebook.
“Realizing the whole world behind the scene, anyway, I will say that Ukraine can make a restart. I don’t mean redeployment of cash flows from one pocket into another, but a real (restart, - ed.), based on a need to consolidate the people, based not on force, but on development of national agenda,” she wrote.
Besides, according to Zakharova, allegedly, millions of citizens were deprived of their right to vote.
As it was reported, the Central Election Commission has processed 1,61% of protocols: Volodymyr Zelensky gets 70,94% of the votes, and current President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko – 26,71%.
The second round of the elections of the President of Ukraine kicked off in Ukraine on April 21, at 8 a.m. Ukraine’s polling stations opened as scheduled across the country with some minor delays, which were quickly addressed. The voting traditionally lasted for 12 hours; the polls were closed at 8 p.m.
29,982 election commissions have been created. In total, about 30.3 million people can vote. Of these, 325,600 voters changed the place of voting for the second round of elections.
