Right after you provide evidence there are only two thousand members of "Right Sector"

Right Sector itself claims to have 5,000 to 10,000 members, but others estimate 2,000, up from 500 since Russia started its aggression. They're currently polling 1 to 2 percent, as is Svoboda. Right Sector has no members in the Ukrainian Rada.

"Right Sector claims to have at least 5,000 to 10,000 members.[16][17] It first emerged in November 2013 at the Euromaidan protests in Kiev, as an alliance of far-right Ukrainian nationalist groups and the Ukrainian National Assembly – Ukrainian National Self Defence (UNA-UNSO).[18][19]"

"Taras Berezovets, a political scientist and president of Berta Communications in Kiev, thinks Putin is making too much of fairly small group. Until recently, Right Sector had about 500 members. Today it may be 2,000."

"only 2.5% of respondents say they will vote for Tyagnibok of “Svoboda”; and only 1.6% will for Yarosh of “Pravyy sektor” (Right Sector), the two far-right Ukrainian parties."

The last one, unfortunately, you'll have to use a translator on.

You pump out one unsubstantiated yarn after another but want others to show you proof of something anyone can find if they dig a little? Typical propagandist behavior.

You've never shown me any proof for any of your vile claims, not even once, actually.

Oh, I see. 2000 is now 10000 when someone may actually fact check what you said.

Beyond that, don't bother rephrasing what the ruling clique in Kiev has to say. I can get that trash the Kiev Kiddies propaganda rags just as easily as you do.

Like repeating the canard about the "loyal parachute brigade conducting anti-terrorist operations and avoiding bloodshed by temporarily flying a separatist flag". You're just regurgitating whatever the Kiev Kiddies say even when the facts were already obviously not on their side. So far, the facts have been on their side exactly once, that was when they said they wanted to overthrow the duly elected President.

Skumbucket that he may be, the coup crowd could have waited on the already scheduled elections and since they didn't they're not in favor of having a democratic Ukraine. Their actions speak louder than their words.

The coup "government" is a clique of academics and frustrated bureaucrats who have promoted themselves far, far, beyond their abilities with the help and money the EU has given them, period.
