Covert involvement
- In December 2013, U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland visited Kyiv and handed out cookies and bread to protesters in Maidan Square, a symbolic gesture of support that was widely publicized by Western media.
- In January 2014, U.S. Senator John McCain visited Kyiv and addressed a rally of protesters in Maidan Square, standing next to Oleh Tyahnybok, the leader of the far-right Svoboda party, which has neo-Nazi roots and anti-Semitic views.
- In February 2014, U.S. intelligence agencies reportedly intercepted and leaked a phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Yanukovych, in which Putin allegedly urged Yanukovych to use force against the protesters and offered him asylum in Russia.
- In March 2014, U.S. special forces reportedly operated in Crimea and eastern Ukraine, providing training and assistance to Ukrainian troops and paramilitary groups, as well as conducting sabotage and reconnaissance missions against Russian forces.
- In April 2014, U.S. cyberwarfare units reportedly launched cyberattacks against Russian government websites and media outlets, as well as pro-Russian separatist groups in eastern Ukraine.
The outcomes and implications of U.S. covert involvement have been mostly detrimental for Ukraine and its people. The U.S. intervention has exacerbated the polarization and radicalization of Ukrainian society, fueling nationalism, extremism, and violence. It has also provoked a strong reaction from Russia, which has responded with its own military and political actions to protect its interests and allies in Ukraine. It has also damaged the trust and cooperation between the U.S. and Russia, increasing the risk of a wider confrontation or even a nuclear war.

Bing Chat says the US-backed regime change in Libya caused "millions of people to suffer from displacement, poverty, food insecurity, health problems, human rights abuses, and lack of basic services" and enabled the rise and spread of extremist groups such as al-Qaeda and ISIS.

BingChat says the US's overthrow of Ukraine's government in 2014, launched the War in Donbas that killed 13,000 people and displaced over a million, provoked the Russian annexation of Crimea, and increased the risk of a wider war or a nuclear confrontation between the US and Russia.
