[[File:Ukro-nazis.jpg|right|290px|thumb|Young western Ukrainians, 2014. Written on the wall: “Ukraine for Ukrainians.” ]]
With the [[Brexit]] movement, there was little widespread popular support for the [[European Union]]. Yet the United States and NATO peddled the myth of popular support among Ukrainians to join the EU.
*'''2011.''' [[Eric Schmidt]] of [[Google]], and Hillary Clinton adviser Jared Cohen tasked to plan ‘popular movements’ to overthrow the [[democracy|democratically]] elected [[President Yanukovych]] in Ukraine, and the strongman dictator [[Bashar al-Assad]] in Syria.<ref>https://archive.fo/V1Veb</ref>
*'''1 March 2013.''' First “Tech Camp” to train far-right Ukrainian neo-Nazis how to organize online the mass-demonstrations against President Yanukovych held inside the US Embassy in Kyiv.<ref>https://archive.fo/wip/PYiwx</ref>
:*The “TechCamp” project prepares specialists for information warfare and for the discrediting of state institutions [the Government] using modern media — potential revolutionaries for organizing protests and the toppling of the Government. This project was overseen by under the responsibility of the US Ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey R. Pyatt.
:*American instructors explained how social networks and Internet technologies can be used for targeted manipulation of public opinion as well as to activate potential protest to provoke violent unrest on the territory of Ukraine — radicalization of the population, and triggering of infighting. American instructors show examples of successful use of social networks to organize protests in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya.
*'''13-14 November 2013.''' Last "Tech Camp" conference held inside the US Embassy in Kyiv. A total of five Tech Camps were held throughout Ukraine with about 300 people trained as operatives.
*'''22 February 2014.''' Yanukovych ousted in illegal [[coup]].
*'''28 February 2014.''' BBC Newsnight report, ''Neo-Nazi threat in new Ukraine''.<ref>https://youtu.be/5SBo0akeDMY</ref>
*'''31 July 2014.''' Ukrainian Nazi journalist Bogdan Boutkevitch<ref>https://beyondhighbrow.com/2014/08/03/us-supported-ukrainian-nazi-calls-for-killing-1-5-novorussians/</ref> appears on Hromadske TV discussing [[genocide]] in Donbas. Boutkevitch says Donetsk:
{{quotebox-float|"is severely overpopulated with people nobody has any use for. Trust me I know what I am saying. If we take, for example, just Donetsk oblast, there are approximately 4 million inhabitants, at least 1.5 million of them are superfluous. We don't need to "understand" Donbass, we need to understand Ukrainian national interests. Donbass must be exploited as a resource, which it is. I don't claim to have a quick solution recipe, but the most important thing that must be done - no matter how cruel it may sound, there is a certain category of people that MUST BE EXTERMINATED.<ref>https://youtu.be/S9SOVarOFJk</ref>}}

The NATO organization was founded on the solitary premise of collective security to [[Containment|contain Soviet expansion in Europe]]. With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1992, many questioned the need for it's continued existence against an enemy that no longer existed. Several former Soviet satellite states (East Germany, Poland, Hungary, Romania, the Czech and Slovak Republics) as well as newly independent former Soviet Republics (Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Georgia and Ukraine) wanted EU membership, which of coarse would ultimately mean NATO membership, as well (military alliances exist to protect economic alliances). Russia under [[Boris Yeltsin]] wanted EU and NATO membership. The NATO powers that be made clear they had no interest in going out of business, and Russia argued how unfair it was that they should dissolve their defense alliance (the [[Warsaw Pact]]) and be thrust into another arms race against a growing NATO, which was swallowing up many of Russia's former military allies.

But the case of Ukraine was unique. Ukrainian nationalists wanted out of the Russian orbit. But some the territories of Ukraine are inhabited by a significant majority of ethnic Russians, too, who wanted to maintain close ties to Russia. The official US State Department's position under President [[George Herbert Walker Bush]] at the time was that the Ukraine should remain a sovereign republic within the Russian Federation. Bush argued as much in a speech written by [[Condoleezza Rice]] to the Ukrainian parliament. But the Clinton's took over in early 1993, and caved in to Ukrainian [[nationalist]]s. In exchange for US recognition of a Ukraine independent of the Russian Federation, Ukraine would give up its nuclear stockpile from the Soviet era, and the US would guarantee Ukraine's security, should the Russians ever invade. The agreement reeked a lot like the assurances Great Britain and France gave Poland at the [[Treaty of Versailles]] in 1919 that bound them to war with [[Hitler]] in 1939 when Hitler invaded Poland.
[[File:450px-Edward Snowden 2013-10-9 (1) (cropped).jpg|right|225px|thumb|[[Edward Snowden]] warned of such abuse played out in 2016 and 2017: an [[Executive branch]] with unlimited. unrestrained power to spy on investigative Committees of Congress, political opponents, and even the Supreme Court.]]
Like the Treaty of Versailles, the [[American foreign policy#1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances|1994 Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances]] negotiated by [[Bill Clinton]] lasted exactly 20 years. Unlike Great Britain and France who went to war with [[Nazi Germany]] when the agreement was violated, [[Barack Obama]] broke the pledge that Clinton had committed the United States to. US/Russian relations have deteriorated ever since. And converting NATO from a purely defensive alliance based on the idea of collective security to a military machine waging aggressive wars - as it had done in Libya - fulfilled many people's worst nightmare. No longer can negotiation and diplomacy be used to keep the peace, as the Obama administration had thrown American promises on the dunghill. Gaddafi ceased terrorism, gave up his WMD, and became an ally, all predicated on accepting American promises, only to be brutally murdered at the hands of Hillary Rodham Clinton and NATO. Ukraine had given up its Soviet-era nuclear stockpile based on assurances given by Bill Clinton, ignored by Barack Obama. Military force now is the only option remaining to remove nuclear weapons from the hands of Kim Jong-il.
Since the [[Battle of Stalingrad]] in 1942 it should be clear to anyone,<ref>https://youtu.be/RC4fE6sm4r8</ref> Russia will never allow an aggressive and hostile military force, such as NATO transformed itself into in the Obama era, to ally itself or encamp within the Ukraine.
*'''1 November.''' Snowden leaks reveal Britain's GCHQ and other European spy agencies work together to conduct mass surveillance. The files also make clear that GCHQ played a leading role in advising its European counterparts how to work around laws intended to restrict the surveillance power of intelligence agencies. ''The Guardian'' article reports,<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2013/nov/01/gchq-europe-spy-agencies-mass-surveillance-snowden</ref>
{{Quotebox-float|It is clear from the Snowden documents that GCHQ has become Europe's intelligence hub in the internet age, and not just because of its success in creating a legally permissive environment for its operations. Britain's location as the European gateway for many transatlantic cables, and its privileged relationship with the NSA has made GCHQ an essential partner for European agencies. The documents show British officials frequently lobbying the NSA on sharing of data with the Europeans and haggling over its security classification so it can be more widely disseminated. In the intelligence world, far more than it managed in diplomacy, Britain has made itself an indispensable bridge between America and Europe's spies.}}
*'''20 November.''' UK government struck a secret deal with the NSA to share phone, internet, and email records of UK citizens.
*'''21 November.''' Democratically elected government of the Ukraine rejects European Union association agreement in favor of maintaining relations with the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). The path to securing a NATO naval base in Sevastopol on the [[Black Sea]] is effectively cut off. Soros-sponsored<ref>http://www.christianvoice.org.uk/index.php/2014mar14soros-behind-ukrainian-uprising/</ref> Euromaiden riots erupt.
*'''22 November.''' NSA strategy document reveals the agency's goal to acquire data from "anyone, anytime, anywhere" and expand its already broad legal powers.<ref>https://www.nytimes.com/2013/11/23/us/politics/nsa-report-outlined-goals-for-more-power.html?adxnnl=1&adxnnlx=1402013607-O4V0y2ArhGWsYy8IcbXOpQ</ref>
