Good article Turbin...I do get angry at the inferences on this board that Ukraine is a thirld World country.. although it appears that the main reason it is judged as such is because of low wages...BUT what isn`t mentoined is the also low cost of living... everything is relative.. yes here in the UK I agree I would be living in poverty if I was paid by Ukrainian wage levels but in maybe in many African countries I would be wealthy... currently British people are going Christmas shopping in New York because the Dollar is so weak against the pound which is making goods very cheap for us but no one is saying that now the US is becoming third World...
Yes I know that things aren`t perfect in Ukraine but can anybody find a country that is??.. of course not.. Ukraine needs Yanokovich to continue the progress so far made.. Ukraine MUST not submit to mob rule I believe to do so would put it back 30 years...
