      The CIA has supported revolutions, it has never managed to create them. They might only have worked, due to the CIA, but they always needed a strong base support from the population. That is why China, Russia, North Korea and so forth are still anti American. The general population does not want a revolution or at least is not willing to risk one.

      Also yes the US is a super power, but really a lot of things happen in the world, which are not caused by the US. Including things, which help the US. The Baltics did a hell of a lot of lobbying to be allowed into NATO for example.

      CIA supports color revolutions, of course, because it’s something that assigns with their goals against Russia. That doesn’t negate why the populace decided to stage those protests.
