Nuland is already their president.

Why is the West moving to replace Zelensky?

Because they put him there and now they have changed their minds.

How many Russians were killed in WWI, WW2 and by Stalin?

Somehow Russia will endure the 100k killed squabbling over who owns what piece of former USSR land.

Why is Russia an Empire?
the US is in possession of more non continuous territory then Russia is, to my knowledge.

But it will be a pyrrhic victory.

No, it isn't. It's not even close.

Why not just have an election? Oh wait, kleptocracies don’t have elections. Eff Ukraine. Not a dime more. America still has zero interests in Ukraine.

Zelensky did the best he could.

They will have him replaced so he can leave the country before the Nazis kill him for losing the war.

I don't know if he'll want to go to his compound in Israel, though.

Russia is nearly twice the size of the USA.
Russia consists of 17,078,000 sq km
The US consists of 9,826,675 sq km

You would have to add in Canada to slightly beat Russia in non-contiguous land area.

As you say, a 2014 phone call between Nuland and the then-US ambassador to Kiev, Geoffrey Pyatt, was intercepted and the content of the call was leaked to the press.

What you and your fellow conspiracy theory peddlers never see fit to mention is that

1. It wasn’t just Yanukovych fleeing home to his Russian paymasters that needed replacing. The Azarov government had collapsed due to resignations.

2. The interim selection was necessary because there was no leadership at all.

3. The appointment Nuland informed had one job only - to oversee fresh elections for Rada and presidency in order to restore Ukrainian sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity. Which is an undertaking consistent with the Budapest Memorandum.

4. The interim leadership stood aside a few months later after fresh elections had reinstated constitutional government.

5. Nuland didn’t interfere with Ukrainian government appointments after those elections.

Russia would’ve done more than advise; the Kremlin website openly reports on Putin selecting the leaders for supposedly independent states across the commonwealth.

In fact Putin did it twice in 2021. Selected the leader then approved appointments of government jobs reporting to Moscow not their own capitol.

Look it up.

Asia Times and Stephen Bryen, citing Larry Johnson and Sputnik, going over Nuland's infamous 2014 phone call as if it is still relevant.

Byren ignores that since 2000, the Ukrainian constitution allows for suspending elections when the country is at war. Britain did not hold elections during World War II either, no one complained about that.

Another really high standard of commentary article. /s

Biden offered to extract Zelensky. He could have become a fixture in the international set speaker circle. Instead he chose to stay in Ukraine, where Russia had sent 500 assassins after him and said his famous line, ‘I need ammo, not a ride.’
