This is a recurring Kremlin disinformation narrative. There was no coup in 2014. Yanukovych reneged on promises to sign an EU association agreement. He fled to Russia when he couldn't quell protests by force. There was no war in Donbas until Russia invaded in 2014. [Link][Link][Link][Link] CURRENTLY_RATED_HELPFUL(6-0-3) Author

Non-sequitur, at best. Mr. Yanukovych fled in 2014. Russia used ouster as excuse for it's 1st land grab. Using same excuse for 2nd land grab in 2022 backfired. War resulted from Russia's inability to negotiate fairly/hubris. Fault is Russia's (90%/10%). Defense is not shocking. [Link] NEEDS_MORE_RATINGS(0-0-0) Author
