Original Note:
The Maidan uprising was a peaceful, grassroots protest against Ukraine's pivot to Russia, not a coup. It reflected broad public demand for EU integration and democratic reform, leading to political change through civilian action, not unlawful seizure of power (a coup). https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/acref/9780199670840.001.0001/acref-9780199670840-e-295#:~:text=Source%3A%20A%20Concise%20Oxford%20Dictionary,bearing%20directly%20on%20the%20military. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euromaidan
