West slams leadership votes in east Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has not officially responded to the vote yet.
Pro-Russian separatists in the breakaway Ukrainian regions of Donetsk
and Luhansk went to the polls to choose leaders for their
self-proclaimed republics, bringing the rebellion in the country's
industrialized east to a climax in a move likely to exacerbate tensions
between Russia and the West over the Ukraine crisis.
Alexander Zakharchenko, 38, a mining electrician-turned-rebel leader, on Monday won the election for leadership of the "Donetsk People's Republic (DPR)," the separatists' political and military stronghold in eastern Ukraine.

Russian FM statement on the implementation of the Minsk agreements on a settlement in Ukraine and elections in its southeastern regions
From the Official Website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation (Statements and speeches):
Considering the ultimatum issued by Kiev and some Western capitals that elections not be held in the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, it would be logical to remind the following.
In accordance with the Minsk agreements reached in September this year by representatives of the President of Ukraine and the self-defence forces of southeastern Ukraine with the mediation of Russia and the OSCE, these elections can be held between 19 October and 3 November of this year.

Lugansk occupation reinforced. -Protesters had found an arsenal of weapons within the building.
Pro-Russian separatists reinforced barricades around the state security
building in the eastern Ukrainian city of Lugansk on Wednesday and
called on Russian President Vladimir Putin for help after the government
warned it could use force to restore order.
"Of course we must ask Russia to take us in because I don't see an alternative," said a man dressed in camouflage who gave his name as Vasiliy and said he was the commandant of the building. "Putin help us!" he said.
