Rebirth of England

Chapter 983 The Beginning

At this time, Ukraine is undergoing a "color revolution".

On February 22, 2014, the Ukrainian parliament dismissed President Viktor Yanukovych from his post.

In fact, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine has been seeking to join the European Union and accept the protection of the United States and the West. For this, they have also accepted many harsh conditions and "disarmed themselves".

This is also understandable. In terms of disarming Ukraine, especially its "nuclear armament", it is basically tacitly agreed by the five permanent members.

Otherwise, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia inherited its status as a permanent member of the United Nations, so what about Ukraine? They also have nuclear strike capabilities... You can't add a permanent member.

As for Ukraine itself, they don't want to maintain many of their weapons and equipment, including nuclear weapons - after all, the maintenance costs of these weapons are extremely high, which will bring heavy financial pressure to Ukraine at that time.

It is better to use this as a condition to exchange for a "neutral" status from the United States and Russia, as well as some conditions that are beneficial to them.

After that, Ukraine has been seeking to join the European Union.

However, in November last year, the Ukrainian government suddenly announced the suspension of signing the Association Agreement with the European Union and resumed consultations with the Russian-led Customs Union. The reason was that the Ukrainian President Yanukovych at that time could be seen as "pro-Russian". He was born in the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine, where the Russians account for the majority and is the base of pro-Russian forces in Ukraine.

In addition, there is another reason. At this time, the Ukrainian government is in financial difficulties and needs to pay huge natural gas fees to Russia and repay debts to the International Monetary Fund. Therefore, the government decided to resume trade relations with Russia for corresponding negotiations.

However, this decision of the Ukrainian government naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of its domestic pro-European factions, so the pro-European opposition gathered in the Independence Square in Kiev for demonstrations, which later evolved into violent conflicts.

"This time, the 'Square Revolution' was planned by the CIA. In that square, the protest site was commanded by color revolution experts sent by the CIA..."

Barron was not surprised by Nigel's words.

After all, since the Arab Spring, and even before that, the CIA has accumulated rich experience in such "revolutions" time and time again, and the whole process can be said to be very familiar.

These "experts" provide detailed tactical guidance to the protesters, many of whom are extreme organizations of the Ukrainian far right, with strong neo-Nazi colors, such as making Molotov cocktails, tactics against the police, etc., and also provide funds to ensure that these protesters have drinking water and food...

Nigel Inkster also said:

"They will also add a kind of 'white powder' to the drinking water of those protesters. Well, this has been used in the Arab Spring protests, which can reduce the protesters' perception of danger and fear..."

Of course, in addition to the secret "technical support", in order to put pressure on Yanukovych and prevent him from suppressing the protest forcefully, many American and European parliamentarians, politicians, and even the Assistant Secretary of State of the United States personally went to the square protest site to "stand up" for the protesters and cheer them on.

On December 11, 2013, US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland arrived at Independence Square in Kiev to distribute food to the demonstrators and cheer for the pro-Western demonstrators.

On December 7, pro-Western person and former President of Georgia Saakashvili visited Ukraine to express his support for the protesters.

From December 14 to 15, US Senator John McCain and Chairman of the US Senate European Affairs Committee Chris Murphy visited Kiev and met with opposition leaders at Independence Square to support the opposition.

On January 29, 2014, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Ashton arrived in Kiev and met with major Ukrainian opposition leaders and representatives of protesters at Independence Square.

In early February, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle visited the opposition protest camp when he went to Ukraine to attend the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe meeting.

On February 6, US Assistant Secretary of State Nuland visited Ukraine and met with three major opposition leaders.

It can be said that one side sings and the other side comes on stage...

"Russia's reaction this time is too slow..."

"It's normal. After all, the former still had illusions about the United States. But when he realizes that even if Russia cuts off all its claws, the United States will reinstall them and use them as an imaginary enemy to threaten Europe and make Europe seek protection from the United States, he will definitely respond..."

On February 21, more and more people gathered outside the Independence Square in Kiev, shouting that Yanukovych must step down.

After three months of protests, the whole of Ukraine was in chaos. Yanukovych had been deserted by his friends and relatives at this time, and he even lost control of the internal forces and the police.

At this time, representatives of the Ukrainian opposition, Yatseniuk, Klitschko and others, signed an agreement "aimed at resolving the Ukrainian crisis" with the support of the West.

Subsequently, the German and Polish foreign ministers and French foreign ministry officials agreed to the agreement, requiring Yanukovych to accept the conditions. The agreement required Ukraine to restore the 2004 constitution, which represented Yushchenko's post-Orange Revolution The fruits of victory of the Western faction headed by Yanukovych had great difficulty in changing this.

The agreement also requires Yanukovych to call early presidential elections and withdraw law enforcement personnel from Kiev.

Western countries assured that after Yanukovych agreed to the February agreement, they would urge the opposition to hand over their weapons and stop protesting.

It is said that Russia advised Yanukovych not to recognize and sign the agreement at the time, but it was obvious that Yanukovych still had illusions about the West...

So after he signed the agreement, that night, a group of militants from the opposition organization occupied the Ukrainian Presidential Palace and the Verkhovna Rada.

Next, the Verkhovna Rada (parliament) of Ukraine dismissed Yanukovych, the democratically elected president, on the grounds that he could no longer perform his duties.

"Yes, according to the British intelligence agency, Yanukovych has fled to Russia..."

Nigel shrugged and said:

"The protesters had a clear purpose, and there were snipers on the scene targeting the presidential palace. Yanukovych was originally going to take a flight directly to Russia, but was refused, so he first returned to his hometown of Donetsk, and then arrived in Croatia. Remia, escaped with the help of Russia..."
