Alright, I’ll bite. As someone who’s somewhat ignorant of the situation, what led up to the invasion that would justify it?
So, just looking over what happened on Wikipedia, it looks like there were violent protests over the leader not joining the EU. A majority of parliament removed him after a lot of chaos. That decision feels understandable given the circumstance. Parliament is elected, which feels like a more democratic decision than one guy’s choice even if you or I disagree. Is there more context I’m missing that would suggest it was a straight up coup?
