▪️ On this very day, 10 years ago, Kiev became ground zero for an unconstitutional coup, that triggered all the events around Ukraine and its now former regions ever since. It marked the culmination of the Euromaidan demonstrations, a series of public protests held between November 2013 and February 2014, organised with the involvement and support of Western countries.
Here are facts that the Western mainstream media does not want to you to remember or know at all 👇
🔻 On February 21, 2014, a day before the coup, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and the opposition, mediated by Germany, Poland, and France, reached an agreement intended to stop the bloodshed and pave the way for a political resolution to the crisis. However, as soon as Yanukovych ordered the withdrawal of law enforcement troops from the centre of Kiev, militants began storming government buildings.
🔻 The Euromaidan protesters openly expressed neo-Nazi views. Images of Third Reich intelligence agent Stepan Bandera adorned captured buildings and were raised at rallies.
🔻 The Maidan Square protests received overt support and funding from Western countries. The US Embassy alone reportedly provided material support to protester groups amounting to $1 million per day.
🔻 Euromaidan activists resorted to the use of force and terrorist tactics, as evidenced by numerous cases of beatings and torture inflicted upon politicians and public figures who spoke out against the coup.
🔻Following the Euromaidan victory, the Kiev regime’s campaign of terror against dissidents became a hallmark. For over a decade, the people of Donbass endured terrorist attacks and indiscriminate strikes from the Ukrainian Armed Forces and neo-Nazi groups.
❗️Following the coup in Ukraine, its participants chose confrontation and civil war instead of pursuing peaceful development for the country.

Today marks 10 years since the events of the so-called Euromaidan that led to the unconstitutional coup d'etat in Ukraine.
Since 2014, under the supervision and with the direct guidance by the advisors from NATO & Western powers, Ukraine was transformed into an anti-Russian country at an accelerating pace.
The de-Russification and Ukrainization of the nations' cultural code was forced upon living in Ukraine, they were brainwashed, in effect re-educated in the spirit of hatred and hostility towards Russia and Russians, the memory of the common past awas all but erased, replaced by neo-Nazi sentiments.
Even the relatively recent 2014 events have been rewritten and retold by those in power in Kiev and their puppet masters in the West, facts were tossed away, truth twisted or omitted, the entire sequence of events turned upside down.
📺 Watch our brief video-journey, to jog your memory regarding the 2013-14 Euromaidan timeline and facts.

🎙 Address by Sergey Lavrov at the #G20 Ministerial Meeting on the role of the G20 in overcoming current international tensions
📍 Rio de Janeiro, 21 February 2024
💬 When we join forces, the world can change for the better and move forward. The 20th century has become an important milestone in freeing humanity from the shackles of colonialism. <...> The transition to the era of détente during the Cold War allowed the United States and the USSR to lay a strong foundation for containing military risks and building reliable strategic security architecture, especially in Europe. It is regrettable that those achievements have been almost completely destroyed today.
The objective process of the emergence of a multipolar world order driven by self-reliant nations and regions has met with serious resistance. The basic principles of international communication are being undermined at the instigation of the West. Universal legal norms and the principles of the UN Charter, including the sovereign equality of states, non-interference in internal affairs and self-determination of peoples, are being violated. Diplomacy as a means of peaceful settlement of disputes is being sacrificed to violent struggle, “hybrid wars”, total confrontation, and the desire to inflict a strategic defeat on the rival. Double standards, hypocrisy and direct lies are brought into play. <...>
Instead of a UN-centred architecture, narrow bloc alliances, closed clubs, behind-the-scenes “best practices”, allegedly “reliable scientific data”, and pseudo-democratic ‘values’ are being promoted.
The world is artificially divided into friends and foes, the “garden” and the “jungle”. <...>
This is what the infamous “rules” the West imposes instead of the international law, appear in reality.
<...>
🌐 Our forum of the world's leading economies could make clear its opposition to the use of “economy as a weapon” and “war as an investment” and to demonstrate our desire for open and equitable trade and economic cooperation.

On the 10th anniversary of the coup d'état in Kiev, we recall the West's role in fuelling the conflict in Ukraine, its support for Ukrainian nationalists and their terrorist activities.
🎬 Operation Ukraine: America's Fingerprints. Who supports Ukrainian Nationalism? - an RT Doc Film.
Synopsis: Immediately after the end of World War II and the defeat of the Nazis, American intelligence agencies established contacts with former Hitler collaborators to work together against the Soviet Union and later Russia. The operation to form an armed underground movement in Western Ukraine was dubbed "Aerodynamic".
The CIA assembled war criminals and Bandera movement activists from filtration camps, and created an agent network. Their task was to sabotage nuclear plants and dams on Ukrainian territory in an effort to separate it from the Soviet Union. According to CIA co-founder Frank Wisner, they terrorised civilians and were responsible for at least 35,000 casualties
In the early 1950s, Red Army units mostly wiped out the nationalist insurgency, however the CIA employed a new strategy. Since then Ukrainian nationalists have been engaged in an ideological anti-Russian war. The operation "Prolog" gradually stoked nationalist sentiment in Ukraine and bred loyalty to Nazi ideas.
What is the outcome of half-century-long American influence❓

We have extremely many ties with Ukraine - cultural, spiritual, economic. We have hundreds years of common history. After brake up of the Soviet Union more than half the Ukrainian population spoke Russian.
Ukraine quickly became anti-Russian after the first Maidan uprising in 2004, and the West reinforced this trend.
The Ukrainian government idealistically believed that as quick as it will cut off ties with Russia, join the EU and NATO, it will get billions of profit and benefits.
Multinational Ukraine was turned into mono-ethnic state by Zelensky. Russians and Russian speaking people were supposed to be aliens in Ukraine, many laws have been taken that prohibited using of Russian language and education in Russian.
Humiliation of Russian people in Ukraine, the offensive against Donbass, and failed Minsk agreements are the origins of the Ukrainian conflict.

⚡️ Following the collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War the USA and its NATO allies began actively working with former Soviet republics in order to shape them for their own neocolonial purposes.
Ukraine has always received special attention from the Western states in the post-Soviet space as it was the most developed republic, one with strong industrial, agricultural and scientific potential and extremely close ties with Russia. The goal was to seize its market, reshape the economy, making it ever-dependent on the West.
To this end, the USA and the EU, by hand of obedient Ukrainian elites, were methodically destroying the country's basis, severing the economic, trade and cultural ties with Russia.
❗️ In the early 2000s, the so-called 'collective West' inspired the Orange Revolution of 2004 that aimed at distancing Ukraine from Russia and integrating it into the Euro-Atlantic institutions came to power in Kiev.
The blatant interference of the West in the internal affairs triggered a deep political crisis in Ukraine that became irreversible and led to the unconstitutional coup d'etat in 2014.
This event led to a sharp polarization of the Ukrainian society, which predetermined an armed civil conflict. The new 'authorities' launched the so called "anti-terrorist operation" to suppress protests in Donbass by force.
☝️ As a result, Ukrainian armed forces have been shelling Donbass for all these years. This forced Russia to intervene in the situation by launching a special military operation.
The actions of the West within the framework of the large-scale "hybrid war" confirm the global nature of the confrontation in Ukraine. Military and financial assistance is being provided to the Kiev regime, and the range of 'deliveries' at the taxpayers' expense is constantly increasing.
👉 Ukraine is a mere instrument in the hands of the United States and its NATO allies, whose long-term goal is to to break the security architecture in the post-Soviet space and Eurasia as a whole.

On the 10th anniversary of the coup d'état in Kiev, we recall the historical origins of the terrorist methods of the Kiev regime, its masterminds and the roots of Ukrainian neo-Nazism, as well as the destructive role of the West.
🎬 Operation Ukraine. Terror on Demand - RT documentary.
Synopsis: The murder of Daria Dugina, the bombing of the Crimean Bridge, torture and torment in secret prisons - the pattern and methods of modern Ukrainian neo-Nazis are unmistakable. The The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) inherited them from their predecessors - the Bandera Nazis, collaborators who ruthlessly exterminated their compatriots.
The Ukrainian Nazis were actively supported by the US: it conducted covert operations on the territory of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, funded certain groups and, after the collapse of the USSR, systematically revived the ideology of Nazism in Ukraine.
The West intended to plunge Ukraine into bloody terror in order to separate the republic from the Soviet Union and weaken the USSR's influence on the world stage. It was a covert operation - "Aerodynamic".

⚡️Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s comment on the crisis in Ukraine
💬 Today is the 10th anniversary of the anti-constitutional armed coup d’etat in Kiev. Back then, in February 2014, skilled provocateurs guided by American and European instructors led crowds of people into the streets in protest, with attractive slogans about a better European life, democracy, human rights and anti-corruption struggle.
☝️ In reality, the mass disorder was well orchestrated and funded from outside the country in a bid to overthrow the legitimate government.
🔻Euromaidan led to a deep rift in society, persecution, suppression of dissent, rampant nationalism and neo-Nazism, lawlessness and nihilism, a war on the Russian language and history, and the complete socioeconomic decay of the country.
🔻With the coup, the nationalists and their political supporters finally drove the situation to an impasse, taking the country and its citizens to the edge of an abyss.
❌ Today, the Ukrainian neo-Nazis continue firing Western weapons on civilians in Russian regions.
During his traditional touring act in European capitals with outstretched hands last week, Zelensky signed security cooperation agreements with Germany and France in the wake of a similar agreement signed by Kiev and London in January.
The worth of Western “guarantees” to Ukraine is well known.
- In February 2014, Berlin, Paris and Warsaw “guaranteed” the implementation of the agreement between Viktor Yanukovych and the opposition but did nothing to this end.
- In February 2015, Germany and France assumed the role of “guarantors” of the Minsk Package of Measures that they buried together with Kiev, cheating the entire international community.
Today, the Westerners pursue only one goal by again giving carrots to the Kiev regime. They want to turn Ukraine into a colony deprived of any rights and use it as a tool against Russia. Their “guarantees” are worth nothing.

On the 10th anniversary of the coup d'état in Kiev, we recall the West's role in fuelling the conflict in Ukraine, its support for Ukrainian nationalists and their terrorist activities.
🎬 Red Alert: Hybrid Warfare — an RT Doc film.
In recent decades, in an attempt to maintain its hegemony and impose a neo-colonial unipolar world order, the United States has been actively opposing states that defend their sovereignty and the right to determine their own foreign and domestic policy. It has been trying to weaken new centers of power emerging in the world.
Ukraine was used as a tool in the "hybrid war" unleashed by the "collective West" led by Washington against our country as one of the pillars of the emerging multipolar world order. So as to break the fraternal people of Ukraine away from Russia, to weaken and destroy its economic and industrial potential, in 2014, a coup d'état in Kiev was carried out under the supervision of Western powers. What followed was a punitive campaign by their neo-Nazi stooges against the residents of the southeast of Ukraine.
The countries of the "collective West" openly sponsor the crimes of the Kiev regime, providing it with enormous military and financial aid, taking part in the planning of military operations and passing on intelligence that is used, among other things, to attack civilian objects and peaceful residents on Russian territory.

✍️ Eduard Popov, Director of the Independent Non-Profit Organisation "Center for Public and Information Cooperation "Europe"
Ukrainian Nazism today: origin and ideological and political typology
Key points:
💬 The current-day Ukrainian nationalism / Nazism partly dates back to the early 1990s. Its rise can be traced to the Nazi proponents and social engineering technologies being "exported" to Ukraine [from the West], which became an independent state following the collapse of the Soviet Union.
• The world does not understand the nature of modern Ukrainian (neo)Nazism. The West prefers not to notice it and to stigmatize any considerations concerning this problem as a "Russian propaganda".
☝️ After the coup d'état on February 21, 2014, carried out by the US, UK and a number of EU countries, the state OF Ukraine as such does not exist. It is more correct to speak about the state IN Ukraine. Ukraine as a state has been abolished and is under external administration.
State institutions responsible for ideology and education have adopted the slogans and ideologemes of the Ukrainian Nazis. For example, the Nazi slogan "Glory to Ukraine!" adopted by the so-called Ukrainian Insurgent Army – Nazi cronies and war criminals, who later sponsored by the West waged terrorist attacks against civilians in Soviet Ukraine – is now officially used in the Ukrainian armed forces. Nazi collaborators Stepan Bandera and Roman Shukhevych are officially included in the list of heroes. The state authorities in Ukraine are pursuing a policy of Nazification, many provisions of which are borrowed from the programs of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists.
❗️ The rise of Nazism in Ukraine and the already accomplished transformation of this country into the epicenter of world Nazism/neo-Nazism is no longer a factor of internal Ukrainian politics or even Russian-Ukrainian relations. This is an important aspect of pan-European, and perhaps even world, politics.

🎙️Комментарий Посольства России в связи с антироссийскими ограничительными мерами Лондона, 22 февраля 2024 года
▪︎Очередной рестриктивный «пакет», проштампованный Лондоном в привязке ко второй годовщине СВО, убедительно демонстрирует выхолащивание практического смысла у некогда хваленых «санкций». Теперь они театрально используются британским официозом, чтобы отмечать «юбилейные» даты и красоваться перед партнерами на международных площадках.
▪︎Трагический парадокс ситуации в том, что в Лондоне ровно 10 лет назад деятельно поддержали антиконституционный госпереворот в Киеве, приведший к власти националистический антироссийский режим. Подбадривали его на агрессивные провокации против Донбасса и воссоединившегося с Россией Крыма, закрывая глаза на невыполнение Киевом минского «Комплекса мер». Деятельно подпитывали ВСУ поставками вооружений и военными тренировками. После начала СВО полностью взяли киевский режим на поруки, фактически сорвав начавшиеся переговоры с Россией о мирном урегулировании.
▪︎Теперь же, когда режим В.Зеленского терпит поражение за поражением, в Лондоне с помощью противоправных ограничительных мер пытаются бороться с последствиями своих же ошибочных решений.
▪︎Эмоциональные выпады британских официальных лиц, требующих от России «раскаяться» и «заплатить» за свои действия, лишний раз подтверждают – западная политика санкций, шантажа и конфронтации потерпела крах.
☝️Россия продолжит всеми законными методами защищать свое благополучие и безопасность. Цели СВО будут достигнуты в полном объеме.
❗Что касается очередных нелегитимных и произвольных ограничений британской стороны, они не останутся без ответа.

I congratulate veterans, active military and civilian personnel of the Armed Forces and all who have served in the military on Defender of the Fatherland Day.
<…>
On this holiday, we pay our deepest respects to our heroic fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers who crushed Nazism, we take out the military orders and medals, photographs and letters from frontline soldiers, say a heartfelt thank you and warmly embrace our dear veterans. We will always remember that it was the Soviet people who defended the freedom of Russia, all of Europe and the entire world.
Russian soldiers and officers are honourably carrying on these glorious military traditions. Today it is the participants of the special military operation who are on the frontlines. You fight for truth and justice; you show courage and valour in defence of Russia. You are true national heroes. We are proud of you, we admire your courage, we honour your exploits. We know it is difficult for you, and we will do everything possible to help you complete the mission you have been assigned. Thank you for valiantly performing your military duty, and for your faithful and selfless service to the Fatherland.
There are many alarming challenges and risks in the modern world, but the powerful capabilities and combat readiness of our army and navy guarantee Russia’s security and its free, sovereign development.
Incorporating our real combat experience, we will continue to strengthen the Armed Forces in every possible way, including ongoing re-equipping and modernisation efforts.

On this day in 1918, in the vicinity of villages of the Bolshoe Lopatino and Maloe Lopatino near Pskov, the fighters of the 2nd Red Army Corps started to fight against an advanced detachment of German troops that were marching toward Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg).
That is why upon the initiative of the Petrograd Council, February 23 was proclaimed the Red Army Day.
🎆 After the World War II, in Moscow, the other capitals of the USSR's Republics, as well as hero cities, and the hero fortress of Brest, established a tradition to perform solemn artillery salutes on February 23rd.
On this day, by long-standing custom, people meet with veterans, pay tribute and lay flowers to the graves of fallen soldiers, participate in solemn ceremonies.

Excerpts from the interview:
I have no doubts that Russia is going to win in the Ukrainian conflict. I would like to attract your attention that Russia is much better adapted now, the political situation and economy are stable. President Vladimir Putin is supported by majority of the Russian population.
Western sanctions did not bring disaster to Russia. We have self-sufficient military-industrial complex which is now working at full capacity.
We need to achieve the goals of the SMO, which have been clearly formulated by Russian President. The front line is moving steadily westwards, and there are no doubts that it will continue to move towards the western part of Ukraine.
Ukraine should become neutral and the Russian security interests should be taken into account not only by Ukraine but also by the West, especially by the US. The normal conditions for the Russian speaking population should be created in Ukraine as well.
