The 2014 Ukrainian coup d'état, known in the capitalist-imperialist press as the Maidan Revolution, was a CIA-backed fascist[1] coup[2] in Ukraine against president Viktor Yanukovych.

After the coup, armed rebellions began against the Ukrainian government in Donbas, forming the people's republics of Donetsk and Lugansk.[3]
