On October 14, Australia will hold a referendum. The citizens will be asked to decide whether they agree to amend the Constitution to recognize Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islands people by creating a representative body in the Parliament. Ahead of the referendum, representatives of the Russian-speaking community shared their arguments and thoughts on why they are going to vote for or against the Voice.
