The story about the CIA conspiracy is seen in Ukraine as Russian propaganda to disarm any support for the Ukrainian Revolution. In the West, the conspiracy people have loved this CIA plot and they have been seen as the pawns of Russia from the Ukrainian point of view. Here is the joke about the Russian CIA Plot behind Maidan.
“We will need 54 years to prepare Euromaidan in Ukraine. For that purpose we will need to create social media. And that´s why we must create internet and develop it then.”
Allen Dulles, 1960, CIA
