Brief retelling from RIA II

American analyst and blogger Andrew Napolitano said that the CIA planned and carried out a coup in Ukraine in 2014.

According to Napolitano, evidence of this is available in the public domain.

WASHINGTON, October 9 – RIA Novosti. The US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) planned and carried out a coup in Ukraine in 2014, said American analyst and blogger Andrew Napolitano.

"The CIA literally planned and carried out a coup d'etat. The evidence available in the public domain allows this conclusion to be made with complete certainty," Napolitano wrote in an article for Politics magazine.

The analyst connects the events of 2014 with Washington’s interference in the internal politics of Ukraine. In his opinion, the United States was not an outside observer of the political crisis that ended with a change of power in Kyiv.

In November 2013, a series of protests called “Euromaidan” began in Ukraine after the authorities decided to suspend the process of integration with the European Union. The riots quickly acquired a sharply anti-presidential and anti-government character. Clashes between Ukrainian security forces and demonstrators have left more than 100 people dead. The protests escalated into a coup that led to the overthrow of President Viktor Yanukovych on February 22, 2014.
