• Warrant for an Invasion: The Myth of the “American Coups” in Ukraine. 2. What Happened in 2014

• Pekka Kallioniemi, “In today’s #vatniksoup and another edition of “You pronounced this nonsense, not me”, I’ll talk about an event called the Revolution of Dignity AKA Maidan Revolution. It was a wave of demonstrations in Ukraine that took place in 2013 and 2014.” (thread) (pdf)

• Oleksandra Povoroznyk, “I’m not even gonna list everything this person (or, probably, group of good old balding comrades sitting around in a government building somewhere in Moscow) is hilariously wrong about, but I do want to make this point very clear: Maidan was not a coup.” (thread) (PDF)

• Oleksandra Povoroznyk, “It’s 9 years since the beginning of the Maidan revolution, which began as a protest led mainly by students and journalists, and ended up changing the fate of our country. This is what the early days felt and looked like: November drizzle, ironic posters and earnest students.” (thread) (PDF)

• Oleksandra Povoroznyk, “Alright, I know this definitely won’t get the “but Maidan was a coup!” crowd to stop with that bs, but I do want to remind all of you fine people on twitter what life before Euromaidan was like.”

• Neil Abrams, “According to tankies, the 2014 Euromaidan revolution, in which Ukrainians rose up and ousted kleptocratic dictator Viktor Yanukovych, was a “coup” by the U.S. acting in cahoots with Ukrainian Nazis. Was it?” (thread) (pdf)

• Mariia Kramarenko, “The beginning. 26th of November 2013. Student from my university Kyiv-Mohyla Academy gathered to march through the streets of #Kyiv. We went to Taras Shevchenko park in front of Taras Shevchenko university to call other students to join the strike. After people headed to #Maidan.” (thread) (pdf)

• The Euromaidan protest started 9 years ago to the day.

• Stas Olenchenko, “Exactly 9 years ago today, I was in a pub with my uni pals when we heard the news that then-president Yanukovych would not sign the association agreement with the EU, crushing Ukraine’s European hopes and locking us to Russia.” (thread) (pdf)

• Ukrainian MPs vote to oust President Yanukovych

• Parliament votes 328-0 to impeach Yanukovych on Feb. 22; sets May 25 for new election; Tymoshenko free

• “It’s ridiculous how some westerners are saying that our Maidan, when Yanukovich run away was a coup. We were there, we took part in it, we fought for our freedom, and we are doing it once again now. Why is it so hard to believe that we don’t want to be a part of russia?”

• Mykhailo Lavrovskyi, Don’t know what to answer on the Russian propaganda about calling the Revolution of Dignity in Ukraine a coup?

• Why the Euromaidan protests weren’t CIA plots.

Kremlin propaganda

• “Following the 2014 state coup, which the United States and several other countries openly supported, Ukraine has been falling ever deeper into political chaos, corruption, lawlessness and aggressive nationalism”
