There was no "CIA-backed coup" in Ukraine. A president that caved in to Russian pressure to back out of tighter economic relations with the EU saw massive protests in response, ordered to shoot protesters, killed over a hundred of them, and then fled the country when he understood that he would be facing criminal charges. Ukrainian parliament deposed him with votes 328-vs-0. Even members of his own party voted against him. The joint spy bases were established after Russia invaded Ukraine to monitor what's going on in the invaded parts of Ukraine. > I mean, imagine if Brazilian intelligence backed a coup in Mexico, then built several military bases, intelligence bases and black sites across the country, then used them against US interests. Would the US really put up with that? Should they? The hypocrisy is real. Imagine if the United States invaded Sonora and Baja California under the excuse that they're protecting Americans there, looted factories and other businesses, established concentration camps, tortured and executed anyone who resisted, forced millions to flee their homes as refugees and gave their property away to settlers from landlocked states of the US ("I've always wanted to live by the ocean!"), and started forcibly conscripting all Mexican males from Sonora and Baja California into fighting against the rest of Mexico. And imagine that you blamed Mexico and its allies like Brazil for propping up defenses along the remaining border. A bit insane, don't you think?
