A separatist leader in eastern Ukraine had called for a referendum to be held in his region on joining Russia.

“In fact, it is an attempt to create North and South Korea in Ukraine," Budanov said.“In addition, the season of a total Ukrainian guerrilla safari will soon begin. Then there will be one relevant scenario left for the Russians, how to survive," he added.

Leonid Pasechnik, the head of the self-proclaimed Luhansk People’s Republic, said it could hold a referendum “in the nearest time" asking voters whether they support making the region a part of Russia. Moscow says the goals for what Putin calls a “special military operation" include demilitarising and “denazifying" its neighbour.The invasion has devastated several Ukrainian cities, caused a major humanitarian crisis and displaced an estimated 10 million people - nearly a quarter of Ukraine’s total population.

“We’ve already been waiting 31 days. Who is in charge of the Euro-Atlantic community? Is it really still Moscow, because of intimidation?" Zelensky said, suggesting Western leaders were holding back on supplies because they were frightened of Russia.
