Yes, they did. You saying it wasn't so doesn't change the fact that Right Sector was armed and on the Maidan. All forensics analysis says that the civilians killed were almost assuredly killed by the armed Nazis overthrowing the democratically elected government of Ukraine. Those are facts.

Of course most Ukrainians aren't Nazis. The same way most Germans weren't Nazis. The same way most Iraqis aren't members of ISIS. You don't need elected power when you're willing to threaten, harm and kill your political opponents.

Yanukovych was no Russian puppet. He was in 2014 the most popular politician in Ukraine. He was a corrupt dealer who worked Europe and Russia to his personal and Ukraine's benefit.

Putin also believes the sky is blue and water is wet? Do you? Does that make you a Putin propagandist. I read the western press. I just watched a video interview from C-SPAN from 2014 where Chris Murphy, US senator, talked openly about how the US backed the coup. Does that make him a Putin propagandist?

Murphy was just speaking the truth back then. He couldn't have known how different things would be viewed 8-9 years later.
