None of the CIA/NGO Maidan movement recruits got anywhere close to a government job. "Restored constitution"???? They went full on ethnostate apartheid. "Putin sockpuppet" is the one that tried to get an EU trade deal. Scuttled by IMF.

    GDP was far higher. The country wasn't in ruins, and still had access to the east's industrialization/steel. It's population was up to 20m higher. It had democracy, and was free of nazi coercion.
