Not in Ukraine. The Maidan protestors were unarmed. It was Russia sending arms and money to Ukraine, first to keep Yanukovych in power and then into Crimea and Donbas.
As we know from the long sad story stretching from the Kuomintang to Afghanistan, American money and weapons don't do much if the side we are aiding doesn't have much popular support. It was the Ukrainians who threw out Yanukovych and who are fighting now to keep their independence.
Like the Russians, your side of the argument presupposes that the Ukrainians have no agency, and that Russia is "really" fighting NATO or the US. The Russian ego can't fathom being stymied by the contemptible xoxols.
