Non sequitur. We disagree about the nature of Yanukovych’s overthrow. But that disagreement does not change the fact that there have been two national elections afterwards. So even if I were accept your premise that Yanukovych’s overthrow was an illegal coup, it has no bearing on the legitimacy of the present government.
And Poroshenko, unlike Prigozhin and Navalny, is still alive. Russia is near everything the Kremlin’s useful fools claim Ukraine is. That that irony is never noticed by the politically illiterate and/or mentally challenged, though.
Would be easier if Ukraine could push them out.
Unfortunately, not going to happen.
Nobody believes this Russian crap anyway
You only believe Ukie Crap.
The have been no credible claims that the Ukrainian elections were rigged. Hatred of Ukraine and the desire to justify the Russian invasion are not credible claims.
According to the United States feral government, there have been no credible claims that the 2020 Presidential election was rigged.
Back to Square One:
People who would conduct a coup to get their way would have no problem stealing an election to get their way.
You just want them to legitimize your coup by voting in your show elections.
Since I do not concede that there was a coup — Yanukovych was removed by the democratically elected parliament — I do not accept your conclusion that the elections must have been rigged. You, on the other hand, are making that assumption not based on any evidence but only because it advances your justification for Russia’s invasion. In other words: wishful thinking. But here’s the rub, even if your suppositions were true it would still not justify the invasion. Questions concerning the legitimacy of Ukraine’s government are for the Ukrainian people to decide, not Russia. And Russia is the last country that could make the claim that they are intervening in order to protect democracy.
Tell George Soros I said “Hi.”
Hey that’s what I was gonna say!
But then I scrolled down and saw someone already commented on that line exactly :p

I remember cookbooks from the 60s and 70s which had "Chicken Kiev."
Back during the Cold War.
“handsome”, it makes a difference that they were “handsome?” Tell us more
So everyone who grew up used to calling Kiev, Kiev has to change to Kyiv or they’re on the wrong team. How fanatic of you.
Putin being short and ugly felt inferior to the handsome rivals that he later murdered.
