February 2014. Armed men without insignia storm Crimea's parliament. Within hours, a new government is installed at gunpoint. The world watches as European territory is formally annexed for the first time since 1945-yet Russian propaganda spins the story in reverse, claiming it's Kiev that suffered a coup. The bitter irony? Many of these masked gunmen were the same Berkut officers who had just killed protesters in Ukraine's capital. Months later, 298 innocent passengers aboard Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 would pay the ultimate price for Russia's proxy war, their plane shot from the sky over eastern Ukraine. This wasn't simply about Ukraine's internal politics. Putin's Russia was deliberately destabilizing its neighbor, fueled by dangerous myths: that Russia had been "humiliated" after the Soviet collapse, that former USSR territories belonged to historical Russia by birthright, that NATO expansion threatened Russia with "encirclement." These narratives provided convenient cover for a kleptocratic regime pursuing imperial ambitions dressed up as "conservative values" and "Eurasian" identity. The crisis exposed Europe's weakness in confronting hard power and America's failed strategy of "leading from behind." More profoundly, it represented Ukraine's long-delayed anti-Soviet revolution-a unique fusion of passive resistance, Occupy-style protest, and traditional rebellion that would reshape the entire post-Soviet order.
