Original Note:
There was no coup in Ukraine in 2014. This is Kremlin propaganda. Yanukovych provoked protests through his own actions by refusing to sign an EU association agreement he had promised for years and then violently cracking down on protesters. Yanukovych fled to Russia. https://euvsdisinfo.eu/report/coup-in-ukraine-in-2014 https://www.brookings.edu/articles/viktor-yanukovych-losing-europe-and-losing-the-ukrainian-public/ https://www.polygraph.info/a/ukrainian-maidan-was-not-a-coup/6741774.html
