President Vladimir Putin at the plenary session of the international discussion club "Valdai" said that the anti-state and anti-constitutional coup in Ukraine in 2014 was done by the West in order to show "who is the boss." The head of state recalled that Ukrainian leader Viktor Yanukovych then renounced power and agreed to hold early elections.
Why did [the West] need to carry out a bloody, anti-constitutional coup? No answer! Well, maybe only one - to show who is the boss in the house. Everyone sit down, before the ladies I apologize, on the priest exactly! And don't scream. It will be as we say. In another way, I simply cannot explain these actions ,” Putin said.
Earlier, former US national security adviser John Bolton called himself a coup specialist, commenting on the storming of the Capitol by supporters of Donald Trump and the words of journalist Jake Tupper, who noted that “you don’t need to have a brilliant mind” to prepare such steps. Bolton said that such decisions require a lot of work, and he himself was involved in organizing coups d'état in different parts of the world, without specifying which countries they might be talking about.
