MODERATORS
Could you elaborate on the „coup“? Are you talking about the democratic elections that took place?
They probably mean Ukrainian citizens ditching a 'democratically elected' president who they didn't like, because he tried to make Ukraine more Russian than European.
But that is still a democracy in work, when this is what most of citizens want. Especially when later democratic elections prove that (as it happened in Ukraine). Russia should not intervene, but they did and this destabilized the situation.
Democracy isn't a violent street putsch forcing the elected president to flee the country.
