britain was a nuclear power when argentina invaded the falklands so the bomb was pretty useless in that scenario!

it was supposedly useful enough for Thatcher to threaten the disabling codes for the exocet missiles out of Mitterand.

WikiLeaks lmao. Oh wow Petro Poroshenko met with the American ambassador in 2006, loving mind-blowing revelation there Julian

next up from Top City Homo: a shocking revelation about the murder of Seth Rich that George Soros doesn't want you to know

The U.S. covertly pushed for escalations after a deal was reached for early elections http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26289318

but then banderists and neo-nazis started to occupy regional government offices

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SBo0akeDMY

and then "Yats is the guy"

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-26079957

its pretty clear that the U.S. meddled in Ukraine. They wanted austerity in order to for Ukraine to join the E.U. and fulfill its IMF demands on pension reforms, oil subsidies etc. and Russia was the better choice because it would continue to give them money (15 billion ) and discounted oil/gas. Western Ukraine, probably wanted to be in the EU but the Eastern part and Crimea never did.

It's all part of the long game in Eastern Europe by neo-cons to cordon Russia.

there is no conspiracy, its just US foreign policy. They got rid of one guy and now another guy is in charge doing the same thing. They are just recycling from their list of insiders who will carry out austerity and their foreign interests. Incidentally, the Petro dude is favored because he pushed back in 2006 to install a nato base in Crimea (also in wikileaks).

Citation needed. The president of Ukraine disappeared the day after he signed the agreement. I don't know if RT has you thinking that the CIA had little green men in play in Ukraine or what, but one day is not a lot of time to engineer an escalation. Especially because what happened in Ukraine, as you eventually noted, was a revolution, not a coup. The US, as it is wont to do, provided some behind-the-scenes diplomatic support for anti-government protestors, but that is a long, long, long way away from "sponsoring a coup."

Your whole narrative is bullshit, which you would know if you'd been following events in real time.
