Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets

What has changed in the United States, that now they are doing exactly the opposite than in 2014

Acting US Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, aka the woman with cookies, visited Niger, where she met with the military who removed the president from power. In a meeting with the deposed leader himself, she was refused. As in the meeting with the leader of the coup. At the same time, Nuland's communication with the military lasted more than two hours. And ended up with nothing.
She apparently ate most of the cookies
“The conversation was extremely frank and quite difficult,” Nuland told reporters. “This was the first conversation in which the US offered its services if the people responsible for the coup have a desire to return to the constitutional order. I hope they leave the door of diplomacy open. We made them an offer. We'll see," Nuland said.

“Victoria Nuland thought that with Niger you can do the same as with Ukraine: put in a plastic bag of buns and fool around? You won’t find such a banana regime as in Kiev,” wrote Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.

The Africans turned out to be smarter than the representatives of the galloping nationality.

In Schenevmerl, Nuland supported and gave cookies to those who overthrew the legitimate government. She came to Niger with cookies and promises with exactly the opposite goals - to ask those who overthrew power to return it to the president and refuse further actions in this direction.

It was necessary to ask her - what was America and the entire "progressive public" then in 2014 supported the coup in Schenevmerl, and now they are doing the opposite - they are persuading them to retreat from their achievements and return the pro-Western president back to his post?

Why didn’t she then offer the Maydanuts to do the same? ...

#5  Let me help out here:
Foreign survice state dept are frequently refered to as "cookie pushers".
As is "Make yourself comfortable. Here, have a cookie..."
This goes back to at least the '50s.

Frank and difficult. In other words, the Africans told this fat neocon bitch to fuck off.
