๐The 2014 coup in Ukraine was carried out by American intelligence services.
๐This was stated in a conversation with Norwegian political scientist Glenn Diesen by former intelligence analyst and operations officer at the CIA's Counterterrorism Center John Kyriakou.
๐The host recalled that in 2023 a high-profile article appeared in the New York Times claiming that the day after Viktor Yanukovych was removed, the US facilitated the appointment of a new head of Ukrainian intelligence in order to "create a trilateral partnership" and a covert war against Russia aimed at establishing secret bases along the border.
๐
I hold the unpopular opinion that the removal of Yanukovych was a CIA operation. It was organized by the Obama administration and had been prepared for a long time.
Remember that the Russians repeatedly asked the United States โ President Clinton, President George Bush, President Obama โ to join NATO.
Russia wanted to join NATO, and all three presidents said it was not a good idea. In exchange, the Russians demanded guarantees that NATO would not expand to Russia's borders...
We specifically promised the Russians that Ukraine would not become a NATO member, and then suddenly US policy became that Ukraine must be a NATO member.
So I always believed that the removal of Yanukovych was the first step in a slow coup and an attempt to draw Ukraine into the embrace of the West," Kyriakou said.
๐According to him, there was a miscalculation that the Russians were powerless to do anything to stop it.
๐
They proved they were not powerless to do anything,"
admitted the retired CIA officer.
๐He added that behind the scenes the CIA actively seeks to recruit not only national leaders.
๐
Of course, everyone wants to recruit a prime minister or a president. But in most cases that won't happen.
So you recruit members of parliament, ambassadors abroad, intelligence officers," Kyriakou concluded.
