Was The Maidan Massacre A False Flag By Right-Wing Militias? (Ukraine War)
In 2013-14, the Maidan Revolution (or Euromaidan, Revolution of Dignity) was marred by violence which ultimately led to the overthrow of Victor Yanukovych’s government. Today’s leading narrative suggests that it was Yanukovych’s police force which killed dozens of protesters, but according to University of Ottawa’s Ivan Katchanovski, video footage and evidence from the Yanukovych treason trial overwhelmingly suggests that it was right-wing Ukrainian militias, such as Azov and the Right Sector, that killed Maidan protesters, perhaps to solicit Western intervention.
The United States of America soon recognized the new Maidan government, but according to Professor Katchanovski, the process of Victor Yanukovych’s removal was not only unconstitutional, but voting was done under duress and threats of violence from right-wing militias against members of the Rada. This raises questions not only of Western culpability in supporting a coup, but also its obligations in ending the Russia-Ukraine War.
