Italy will not recognise the outcome of the "referenda" in Russian-controlled areas of Ukraine, Prime Minister Mario Draghi told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Thursday.

The message was conveyed in a phone call which confirmed the Italian government's continuous support for Ukrainian authorities and population in all areas, Draghi's office said.
