This guy can lick balls.
The insinuation that the Maidan is anything but a homegrown revolution against a kleptocratic regime is just insulting to the Ukrainian people and everyone who died (and is currently dying) for freedom. Slava.
F this moronic article.

The article doesn’t insinuate anything about the revolution. Why lie?
“As the Indian economist Prabhat Patnaik has pointed out, the IMF played a key role in precipitating the 2014 crisis: Ukraine’s then-President, Viktor Yanukovych, refused to accept IMF demands that he cut wages, slash social spending and end gas subsidies in order to integrate with the EU, and turned instead to Russia for an alternative economic agreement.”
Di you know where I can find more information about that?

Timothy Snyder is a professor of history at Yale University. He demonstrates understanding of Eastern Europe that I have never seen in another American.
I’ve seen Timothy Snyder before, but never seen him teach. Thanks
Happy to help.
This describes the plan.
From this article:
A 2019 poll of Ukrainians found that 73 percent wanted the state to play an active role in the economy. Despite this, the West is gearing up to impose another round of shock therapy upon the country and reduce the state’s power in favor of private enterprise. Ukrainians who have fought and died for their country deserve more than a gaggle of overpaid Western consultants tinkering with their economy.
