It started with a group of terrorist snipers in the Hotel Ukraina who fired randomly into a crowd of civilians. None of them were ever prosecuted. The attempt to pin it on the Berkut failed miserably.

One of them was identified by a Ukrainian war hero as Andriy Parubiy, far right nut and future speaker of the rada. Several of them identified themselves as Georgian mercenaries who were hired by Andriy Parubiy.

The goal of the terror attack was clearly to overthrow a democratically elected president that was overwhelmingly popular in Crimea and the donbass and install a puppet who could be relied upon to do the bidding of the west.

This was successful, and is what kicked off the civil war.

Victoria Nuland's phone call where she "picked" the puppet on behalf of the US state department was leaked. You can listen to it.

Sources, sick imagination.

That corruptionist was not "overwhelmingly popular". It was of the political party that is popular, not more not less.

It was all orchestrated by Russia. You can find tons of videos of russian hero's of that time, and they openly confirm now, that regular military was in Crimea, Donetsk , etc, since 2014. This is not some "leaked" phone. It's many interviews openly sitting on youtube and confirming with smiles their actions.

All of that evidence can be verified with a quick google.

>That corruptionist was not "overwhelmingly popular".

In Crimea and the Donbass he undeniably was. Election figures confirm this. Again, a quick google would confirm this.

>It was all orchestrated by Russia.

The source for this definitely IS imagination.

>You can find tons of videos of russian hero's of that time, and they openly confirm now, that regular military was in Crimea, Donetsk , etc,

Of course. Just as many "patriotic western" soldiers ended up fighting for Ukraine, many "patriotic Russians" ended up fighting in the donbass.
