He's implying Euromaiden in 2014 as a EU and US instigated event to erode Ukraine's political independence, thus, justifying Russia's invasion of the Crimea.

We should know by now whenever region moves away from an authoritarian power's orbit is regarded by these powers' as some kind of foreign influence and subversive operation. They think it's impossible that the people themselves actually don't like authoritarian governments. It's the same in Russia, China, Iran, North Korea etc etc etc.

Nothing special to authoritarian governments. Both the left and right in the USA like to believe it's foreign influence than half the country having (sometimes drastically) different views.

The city/rural biases don't help either as you mostly see people with similar views to you.

This is a new phenomenon in the US, mostly because of party elder denial.

"Euromaiden" is a funny typo.

Russia puppet was the reason of Euromaidan.

Putins rating raised to 86% after Crimea annexation. Ukraine joined West in propaganda. It's just a fuel for informational autocracy.
