Answer to "Referendums": The European Parliament has urged to increase weapons supply to Ukraine
The document also requires to increase the military assistance of Kiev in a full -scale, which is ongoing. This is stated on the website of the department. The European Parliament acknowledged that the results of "referendums" could not be recognized as "under the muzzle of weapons" and the Kremlin's nuclear blackmail should not lead to a decrease in the supply of weapons to Ukraine.
In addition, the deputies of the EP demand to create a special international tribunal for investigating Russian aggression against Ukraine. The MEPs were also called on to increase the pressure of sanctions on Russia. In addition, the resolution condemns mobilization in the Russian Federation and refers to the need to strengthen the support of the states that have undergone the influx of Russians - in particular, it is about Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia and Georgia.
The MEPs also condemn military mobilization in Russia and measures that force residents of temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine to serve in Russian armed or auxiliary forces. This is forbidden by the Fourth Geneva Convention. The document emphasizes that suspicions of deliberate damage to the Nord Stream and Nord Stream - 2 gas pipelines are increasing. The decision on the adoption of the resolution was supported by 504 MEPs, 26 spoke against, 36 abstained.
It should be noted that the resolutions of the European Parliament are declarative. We will remind, on October 6, the EU Council decided to introduce a new package of sanctions against Russia in response to annexation of part of the occupied Ukrainian regions - Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia. Restrictions provide for the establishment of a ceiling of prices for Russian oil.
