USAID invested >$5B since 1991 in Ukrainian civil society, media, governance & democracy programs (Nuland 2013 quote). This long-term aid supported NGOs but did **not** fund or orchestrate the 2013-14 Maidan protests/revolution. Those were driven by Ukrainians opposing Yanukovych’s corrupt rejection of the EU deal under Russian pressure.
The broader claim—that this “directly led to” Donbas (~14k deaths 2014-22) & 2022 war deaths, making USAID supporters responsible—closely mirrors Russian disinformation themes. It reframes a popular pro-Western uprising as a US “coup,” downplays Russia’s agency in Crimea, Donbas separatism & full-scale invasion, and shifts blame entirely westward. Geopolitics involved real Ukrainian aspirations alongside great-power competition.
@Starbucks things have gotten totally out of control at JFK Terminal 5 Gate 22. The staff are SCREAMING at customers because they have accepted so many mobile orders they can’t cope. So instead of pausing the mobile orders they are waiting until customers turn up to yell at them
