He&#13;<br \/>\ntalked in Moscow at a ceremony attended by hundreds of dignitaries. The&#13;<br \/>\nannexation comes after referendums organised in these regions which Kyiv and&#13;<br \/>\nthe West describe as a farce. Ukraine said it would continue to fight for&#13;<br \/>\nliberate these territories and that the annexation has no legitimacy and only&#13;<br \/>\nreflects Moscow&#8217;s reaction to the recent defeats on the battleground. <\/span>The&#13;<br \/>\nRussian troops control most of Luhansk and Kherson, but only a few areas in <span>Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia. The Romanian foreign&#13;<br \/>\nminister Bogdan Aurescu took to Twitter on Friday to call on the international&#13;<br \/>\ncommunity to fully reject the illegal and illegitimate annexation of Ukrainian&#13;<br \/>\nterritories by Russian following self-styled referenda and illegal aggression.&#13;<br \/>\nHe underlined that Romania condemns this action and the escalation and&#13;<br \/>\nreiterated his country&#8217;s support for Ukraine&#8217;s sovereignty and territorial&#13;<br \/>\nintegrity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=color: rgb(51, 51, 51);><strong class=cms-bold>Energy.<\/strong> EU members on Friday reached an agreement on measures to compensate for high electricity prices, announced the Czech presidency of the EU.
