Abstract

This paper examines Russia's response to the color revolutions in Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan as they fit with the account of anti-Westernism. The revolutions, the famous rallies that happened in Ukraine, and Kyrgyzstan and toppled the pro-Russian governments in those countries, assumed a significant job in the development of Russia's links with the West. They made a story of a continuous movement of pro-reform, pro-democracy sweeping through the previous Soviet Union that could spread across the whole region, including Russia. The officials of Russia saw the West as the root of the color revolutions and stated that Westernfinanced NGOs were purposely attempting to subvert the governments of the color upheaval nations, by helping the youth and activists movements that pushed the rallies to win. Russia dreaded the outcomes of Western democracy advancement and political decision observing, officials endeavored to impede the two activities and built up the narrative of free democracy as a means of defending their actions.
