You’re mostly right, but in the interest of accuracy: Ukraine was making moves to join NATO way back in 2008, (possibly because of Russia’s invasion of Georgia) but plans were put on hold when pro-Russian Viktor Yanukovych was president. Once a coup kicked him out of office and Russia seized Crimea, NATO membership became a high priority.
Ask Russians or their braindead boot lickers and it’s a coup - ask the people there fighting for their own country and against russification and it’s a revolution ;)
It was an overthrow of a democratically elected president. Not every Ukrainian was happy about it, obviously, since some Ukrainians were/are fighting the revolutionaries.

It wasn’t a coup. It was a revolution.

Uh huh. If Trump’s people succeed on Jan 6th would it be a revolution or a coup? I’ll go with whichever you answer.
