Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
Just put in a puppet.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
And this is a hallmark of what Putin has done in places like Ukraine, where he had his own puppet until the Revolution of Dignity in 2014, when the Ukrainian people threw that person out and instead said they wanted to get closer to Europe.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
And that's when Putin invaded for the first time in 2014.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
And then they kept this plan going.
Oliver BulloughGUEST
You know, it was just a few corrupt cops, corrupt doctors, corrupt whoever, just extorting money from ordinary people.
Oliver BulloughGUEST
But then it was in Ukraine in 2014 when there was this amazing, I mean, the revolution of dignity, they call it in Ukrainian, the Maidan, when they drove out their very corrupt president.
Oliver BulloughGUEST
And he left a lot of his documents behind, his business records.
Oliver BulloughGUEST
And so there was this amazing opportunity there.
Sean SullivanHOST
I love it when you tell me.
Sean SullivanHOST
Did you hear at the beginning of the hour before we started talking about that, when I referenced the CIA's work and what they did in the Maidan Revolution? Did you, you hear me reference that, Ol- Old Guy? [upbeat music] Beautiful thing about the podcast is that you can go back and listen where I said that.
Sean SullivanHOST
It's coup, not coop.
Sean SullivanHOST
Hour number two on the way.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
Immediately, Yanukovych turned Ukraine toward Russia.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
Then, in 2014, after months of popular protests, Ukrainians ousted Yanukovych from power in what is known as the Revolution of Dignity.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
He fled to Russia.
Heather Cox RichardsonHOST
Shortly after Yanukovych's ouster, Russia invaded Ukraine's Crimea and annexed it, prompting the United States and the European Union to impose economic sanctions on Russia itself, and also on specific Russian businesses and oligarchs, prohibiting them from doing business in the United States and in its territories.
Glenn BeckHOST
Mm
Miranda DevineGUEST
... um, and, you know, after the Maidan Revolution, you had John Brennan going in there, and you had, uh, Victoria Nuland, and it was-
Glenn BeckHOST
Oh
Miranda DevineGUEST
... really just a puppet-
Yuriy SakGUEST
If you look and if you analyse when Russia attacked Ukraine in the past, It was only when we were at our weakest point.
Yuriy SakGUEST
2014, after the Revolution of Dignity, when the corrupt President Yanukovych fled the country and the political leadership of Ukraine was in disarray.
Yuriy SakGUEST
We were weak.
Yuriy SakGUEST
That's when Russia annexed Crimea and started the proxy war in Donbass.
Harrison SmithHOST
The Russians gave us a better deal." So what did we do? We overthrew the guy.
Harrison SmithHOST
We did the Maidan Revolution.
Harrison SmithHOST
We murdered a bunch of people in the square, blamed it on the government, overthrew that government, and planted this cokehead actor, Zelenskyy, started terrorizing the people in the eastern part of the country who didn't want to be overthrown by the United States, who said, "We don't, we don't feel like being subjects to NATO or this unelected cabal led by Victoria Nuland.
Harrison SmithHOST
We actually are Russian.
Damian MartinPANELIST
Instead, Massey's revolution would involve the mandate of heaven.
Damian MartinPANELIST
He spoke of the Orange Revolution, the Revolution of Dignity, and the Baltic Singing Revolution.
Damian MartinPANELIST
He then said, in a bizarre pro-Kremlin turn, "If you are part of the social revolution, you are revolting.
Damian MartinPANELIST
If you are part of the Singing Revolution, looking for the freedom of the Baltic States, you are revolting." He then spoke of Richard Nixon, uh, Nixon's meeting with CCP leaders Zhao and Li.
Greg ZanettiGUEST
... that took place in 2014.
Greg ZanettiGUEST
It's called the Maidan Revolution, and I think I've probably gone over this in your show before.
Greg ZanettiGUEST
But thus began, really the war began back in 2014, and the population began to drop like a stone as people fled.
Greg ZanettiGUEST
And now we're at end game, and the Russians-
Harrison SmithHOST
