Russians commenting yet again on democracy, as if they had a some clue. Face it, Russians don't understand democracy, that's why don't have that "technology" in Russia. It's just too advanced!

You think Rennee Parsons is a Russian?  Your just an idiot.

The name of the author is irrelevant. The views expressed were just a rehash of the official Kremlin sex-tape or whatever it was that they originally claimed to eavesdrop on.

The fact is that democracy was not a demand on the streets of Kiev

That's the really glaring part that editorial review should have picked up on.
They already had democracy. It was just the government employees that were failing to carry out their duties. It seems the Russians really don't understand these subtle differences, so they naively swallowed the junta/coup propaganda "hook, line, and sinker".

(Hint: if you already have a democratic system, there's no need to protest for it, right? The protests were against Yanukovich and his group of employees, running his version of "a government".)
