Yes, of course...the armed troops in the street and the threats to quell the protest should be totally ignored. It is okay to repress your democratic population with the military!
The 2 actions that provoked the war are Democracy and Megalomania. Ukraine's Democracy and Putin's Megalomania.

Without the coup there was no 'constitutional action' (murdering a bunch of people can have that effect) and the cops were being fired on by the snipers so they retreated. There's more than 1 guy, eyewitness, medical and forensic evidence show snipers were shooting cops and protesters. Overlooked, ignored, that describes what happened to the victims after the coup. Lets ask the people of the Donbas if that was a coup. It was so fortunate Victoria Nuland had already picked the president's successor. We love constitutions

Why wouldn't Russia intervene, however it felt that it could, in order to oppose protests against the guy they preferred?
"People in Donbas didn't support the coup so Kiev attacked them". Is that any different from, "Separatists in Donbas, declared independence from Ukraine because they were angry when the lawful Ukrainian parliament voted to remove Viktor Yanukovych from power, so the new Kiev government attacked the Separatists."? If not, who cares?​

I hope you don't think a mass shooting occuring in Washington during protests against a US president could render constitutional removal of the president from power somehow impossible? If the president was removed that would mean any state that has people that call that a coup can secede?
I picked last year's Superbowl winner. Does that mean I control the NFL behind the scenes?​

Wrong. If foreign back snipers kill 100 people on both sides or just one or the other side of protests against a president then the president being forced from power by the parliament isn't a coup. Duh. Why should we take seriously people in the Donbas calling it coup?

This thread is about the war between Russia and Ukraine. Whether it was Barack Obama or Putin's little green men or crazed sadist dark eldar time traveling from the 40th millennium would make no difference to casus belli or anything else about this war.
Russia doesn't get to invade and the Donbas doesn't get to secede on the basis of the mass shooting sniper event.

The Pentagon ignored the ban... The ban on drugs would be symbolic if it wasn't enforced. How did Russia oppose protests against the guy they preferred? The Donbas separated because of the coup, the new govt came later and whitewashed the massacre blamed on the democratically elected leader. The coup was the massacre and the leader framed, describing the aftermath as democratic, lawful or constitutional is unconvincing. As for the people of the Donbas, we sent a Nazi army to attack them so I care.
How do you know who sent a Nazi army? How do you know the Nazi army was sent to attack the people of the Donbas in general?
How do you know that after Putin sent a Nazi army to declare independence that Kiev didn't send a Nazi army to fight Putin's Nazi army?
Finally taking advantage of a massacre to frame a lawfully elected leader is not a coup. Not even if the same people arranged the massacre and the framing.
