When we organized a coup to unseat the democratically-elected, fairly-elected president

Yeah, just another pathetic, anti-American, Russia-loving trolling liar.

It should be regarded as a coup as well, given what occurred.

Crimea given an internationally monitored vote would vote 90%+ for Russia, precisely for the reasons Musk outlined. In no small part, that's why Ukraine was willing to cut off all water to Crimeans, and blow up their bridge. They are "Russian speakers". IAW Ukrainian perception, they are second class citizens.

Oh dear.
Is it your contention we played no role in the 2014 coup?
Or is it your contention Ukraine's president was not democratically-elected, fairly-elected in 2010?

?????????? The situation in the Soledar direction
as of 15.00 October 11, 2022

??The command of the OTG "Soledar" expects an active offensive of Russian troops on the lines of Kodema - Kurdyumovka and Klinovoye - Krasnaya Gora to further block Bakhmut (Artemovsk) from the northeast and south.

??The evacuation of public service employees to Chasov Yar is being carried out from Bakhmut itself. In some units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, signatures are being collected on the issue of distrust of the command of the group.

??Fighters of PMC "Wagner" during the fighting went to the south-eastern outskirts of Bakhmut and established control over Ivangrad. Ukrainian formations suffered losses and retreated to the Klescheevka area.

??To strengthen the defense and restore positions, 43 military personnel were also deployed to the Kleshcheevka area, as well as one reserve platoon to the Otradovka area. The wounded are being evacuated from Ivanovsky (Red) with the help of armored combat vehicles (AFVs).

??The Wagner PMC detachments eliminated the stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the west of Nikolaevka, which interfered with control over the section of the Nikolaevka Second - Otradovka highway. In addition, a stronghold of Ukrainian units was taken to the north-west of Zaitsevo, which was liberated at the end of last week.

??In order to contain the advance, artillery crews and Mi-8 helicopters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are firing at Ivangrad and Vesela Dolina.

??In the area of ????Disputed, the Wagner PMC detachments captured the stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which was located on both sides of the Verkhnekamenka - Berestovoye highway.

The Russian forces managed to come close to the territory of the gas compressor station, where long-term firing points and equipped positions of Ukrainian units are also located. Further progress towards the Disputable is hampered by a complex mine situation.
