Not a chance. While the "revolution" in Romania 31 years ago started as spontaneous protests was quickly hijacked by an organised clique so it became a coup in a matter of days. The book "Coup d'Etat" [1] lists this "revolution" as a coup in one Appendix. If you ask people in the know in Romania, they'll all agree, they'll even tell you who the key people were.

This thing in Belarus here is no coup, it has no chance to succeed.

The first edition (1968) is timeless, but the revised edition (2016) is amazingly on-point and is updated to reflect the structural changes which have occurred in the half century since it's first printing. It's only 300-odd pages, highly recommended.

No. Erdogan called for people to take to the streets, and within an hour, the airport and bridge were filled with thousands of people waving flags. (From pictures, all male.) That's popular support. The military is not attacking the crowds. The military presence was apparently not that big, concentrating on a few key spots.
