Your use of the passive voice here completely glosses over another issue that pro-Putin disinformation also often latches onto besides NATO: that Yanukovych was (supposedly) democratically elected and so this ouster was (according to RF disinformation supposedly) “anti-democratic”. I wrote a response to this false claim here, https://medium.com/non-violence/ru-supported-ua-president-viktor-yanukovych-killed-protestors-lost-democratic-mandate-in-2014-5e384e6dd70f - which is similar to how you're writing this article in response to the false claim that NATO expansionism supposedly caused Putin's aggression (ignoring centuries of Russian colonialism against its neighbors).
