Both sides, the West and Russia, were both trying to mold Ukraine to their liking. You keep trying to ignore all the Russian dirty tricks. Naughty, naughty...
Last thing Russia wants is a successful free market economy to make them look bad. Putin wants Ukraine weak and corrupt.
You also said Ukraine wasn't sovereign. Which is ironic, since it was Putin's war crimes that forged Ukraine's national identity in fire.
Everyone knows Ukraine is dependent on the West, get real (not that you can). If you want an example of a country that isn't sovereign, thanks to Putin, look at poor Belarus...

I dont know if we can cover the whole time for sure, but yeah we know the USA clearly controlled the coup in 2014, we know that the USA immediately started pumping weapons and other military support into Ukraine, stopped by a short time by Obama (who told us we cant win in Ukraine) but restarted by Trump (who after all got constant pressure because people claimed he would be a russian agent), and we know that Ukraine can only keep going right now because the USA pumps enormous amounts of money into the country, right now at about 150 billion and counting. So the proposition that Ukraine doesn't completely depend upon the USA right now is simply ridiculous.
