Melitopol Mayor Ivan Fedorov said on the air of the United News TV and Radio Marathon that the Russian occupation troops will soon leave Melitopol.

According to Fedorov, the occupants want to hold a pseudo-referendum in Melitopol and are starting another information war. He noted that Ukrainians will not go out with Russian flags on the street and fully support Ukraine.

"In my opinion, there will never appear support for the Rashist Russian federation on the territory of our temporarily occupied cities," Fedorov added.

Regarding Melitopol, the city mayor noted that there are several signs that the Kafirs will not linger long in the place.

First - the Russians want to export Ukrainian grain at a rapid pace. The second is that there are no longer any Rashists on the territory of the Melitopol district, they have left the roadblocks.

The Russian occupants in the Kherson region continue to prepare the ground for a pseudo-referendum on possible accession to Russia. In particular, a fake "social survey" is being conducted in the occupied territories of the region for this purpose.
