That was pretty interesting and I waded through most of it and some of the sub links. I was aware of the “little green men” business, where basically Russians masquerading as Ukrainians “voted” for the “revolution”.
Back when the Budapest memo was made, the United States and Ukraine had some terribly corrupt leaders. Some of the stuff I read on Wikipedia seems to be tweaked to cloak their involvement in certain events. And I how I haven’t read through the whole thing, but I have heard Victor Davis Hanson speak about these matters online.
I may be biased to his point of view, since he’s a world famous historian and he lives, in the next town south of me.
