Curiosity makes me ask why you didn't give the same research to "Russian" contributions. Of course, the same openness likely isn't available on those "spendings". More circuitous, into individual pockets than the more formal U.S. bribe system...

Question 2: ...did the US outright fund some or all of what happened and led to the removal of the sitting President of Ukraine?
"Victoria Nuland, the US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs says the US has "invested" $5 billion in Ukraine in the past two decades..."
"The US govt. has been hijacked and is acting on behalf of ... the globalists in order to weaken Russia & China, the only other two players in this game of geopolitical chess."
The US wants to weaken Russia ahead of removing Putin altogether. Zbigniew Brzezinski writes: "Without Ukraine, Russia ceases to be a Eurasian empire. Russia without Ukraine...would then become a predominantly Asian imperial state...

Wouldn't you like to know just *WHO*, specifically, got that money and by that, determine what likely happened as a result of it?
The protests in the western Ukraine are organized by the CIA, the US State Department, and by Washington- and EU-financed Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that work in conjunction with the CIA and State Department. The purpose of the protests is to overturn the decision by the independent government of Ukraine not to join the EU.
The US and EU were initially cooperating in the effort to destroy the independence of Ukraine and make it a subservient entity to the EU government in Brussels. For the EU government, the goal is to expand the EU. For Washington the purposes are to make Ukraine available for looting by US banks and corporations and to bring Ukraine into NATO so that Washington can gain more military bases on Russia’s frontier.
US spent $5 billion to destabilize Ukraine
Hmm. Good point, yet, in this case, I side with the general media "take" on it.

This isn't about the American government
The term "US" no longer means us...
It means THEM.
According to many past presidents, an "Invisible" Government is in control, NOT the United States of America.
I agree with Yusomad, let's not derail this thread with unneeded facts.
Please.
Not to pick on your post, we agree a lot, but have you seen the estates and properties of the western oligarchs and politicians?
Yet we make a deal with the Ukraine to protect them with out Anti-ballistic missile system if they give up their nukes. They agree and comply. We renege on our side of the bargain, cave in to appease Putin and break that agreement.
Either side. Any side. Just Stop.

Im pretty sure a couple of members are scribbling right now trying to find holes in it, or excuses.
Great job.
Now in order for the aid to be entirely one sided you are asking us to believe that during Yanokovych's reign as president he only ever accepted aid from the US and never accepted any aid from his friends the Russians......yeah right !!!!!
