I don't think it's necessary to accuse the "extreme right wing" of backing the coup. There is plenty of evidence to suggest a strong connection between the mainstream political establishment and the coup.
I've heard some comments recently about the U.S. legitimizing the coup by holding the as-of-yet ineffective mediation talks.
If the U.S. is actually opposed to the coup, why not make some serious demands?
