Well, order matters. The coup in 2014 brought anti Russian powers into the Ukrainian government, previous one was democratically elected. The ethnically Russians in the Donbas called for Autonomy. Same as Ukraine did in the 90s, they were bombed since then. Ukraine bombed its own people.

This is largely accurate.

Zelensky was also elected because he promised peace with the Donbas, but now we know that he had no intention of implementing the Minsk accords and kept shelling the Donbas and re-arming.

I appreciate that your comments are far more objective than many other users, but this is speculation and significantly belied by available voter data regarding their motivations for voting, and they motivations for voting for Zelensky.

Indeed, a survey from 2018 that touches upon this directly. See https://www.iri.org/wp content/uploads/legacy/iri.org/2018.12.4_ukraine_poll.pdf
