Antony Blinken calls referendums plan a ‘sham’ and Moscow’s possible mobilisation of extra forces ‘a sign of Russian failure’ ahead of Biden speech

Joe Biden will use his speech at the United Nations on Wednesday to rally the world to stand firm in the face of Russian plans toand possibly introduce widespread conscription, which the US described as signs of desperation unlikely to halt Ukrainian military gains.

Biden’s speech on Wednesday morning will be followed a few hours later by a video address delivered by the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, an address that Russia tried to stop but which was overwhelming supported by the general assembly membership. Sullivan said that the US would never accept the claimed results of such “sham referenda”. On possible conscription plans, he said“may be resorting to partial mobilisation, forcing even more Russians to go fight his brutal war in Ukraine”. However, he did not think it would turn the military tide, which has shifted in Kyiv’s favour in recent days.

“Those who are keeping silent today are, in a way, complicit with the cause of a new imperialism,” the French president said. “Now we are in a situation where Putin, using the poker term, has gone all-in, and it is extremely risky to play this way. By all-in, I mean, for example, the political and economic future of Russia,” Niinistö said in his address to the assembly.

The occupied Donetsk and Luhansk regions have said they are ready to hold “polls”, which will be universally viewed as rigged, as soon as this week, with announcements also made in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. Some Russian media have reported that Putin may deliver a speech shortly on a potential annexation.
