1002:. If we had no other source, we could cite it, but since there is already an article cited that supports the statement, I see no reason to include the press release.

support the Idea of my friend here -93.222.133.11. I believe it is important to note the international geopolitic implications of this event.

I agree with the consensus that it is not a correlation we should make as it has not been done (as reported by reputable sources). While it would be interested and may be of value after the effects of the coup are solidified, it seems to be premature to do so now.

While we can make our own correlations between events and look into the past, there has not yet been any significant public statement by international actors giving their support to any parties involved. We cannot assume the international reactions
