The Maidan Revolution by the people you mean. A coup normally comes from the army or other powerful insider.
The "revolution by the 'people'." That's as saccharine and uninspired as "our democracy." Victoria Nuland, the State Dept., the CIA, the NED and John McCain were all involved in rabble-rousing in that square against Yanukovych. Her response to the EU's favoring Yanukovych's agreeing to the association deal and also to reform? "Fuck the EU." That vile bitch and her toady discussed at length whom they would replace Yanukovych with after he was forced out.
Coups frequently come from without, and the United States has excelled in instigating them. And please don't tell me this conversation was a GRU deep fake:

The trope "Zelensky won't hold elections" is the usual Russian garbage.
There is no difference between cancelling, postponing and delaying elections and not holding them. The electorate is disenfranchised all the same. He's shut down opposition media and extended martial law, all with the blessing of the State Dept. et al. Then again, I reckon it doesn't matter, since he serves at the pleasure of the White House and CIA and not the poor bastard on the street that wants him to sue for peace.
Would Russia allow Ukrainian elections to proceed unhindered? They'd launched missiles at the polling stations on election day.
So, now you're admitting that elections won't be held and you trot out excuses such as muh civilian casualties? The Russians couldn't be arsed because the elections wouldn't be a referendum on the war, they'd be a referendum on whether Zelensky would be allowed to line his pockets further and then fuck off into exile when his paymasters order it.
By your standards what happened from 1775 onwards in the American colonies was also a coup.
Coups are an overt attempt to overthrow a government, internally or externally. The 13 colonies seceded from the British Empire. You'd better bone up on the definition of coup there, fella.
