(<A HREF="http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,957833,00.html" REL="nofollow">Gdlyan</A> was a famous special investigator in the Office of the Prosecutor General of the USSR:)<BR/><BR/>For Yushchenko to qualify as a U.S. puppet, he should put us into NATO first. Under a Tymoshenko presidency, that would be impossible, which explains Putin's generosity.<BR/><BR/>You and I agree that borrowing alone will not stop the bleeding in the long run, right? <BR/><BR/>With that in mind, I want the governments of Ukraine and Russia to be more accountable to their people instead of being eager to buy or sell presidencies.Tarashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139892487573795049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-68845118984544980852009-02-11T12:28:00.000+02:002009-02-11T12:28:00.000+02:00Yes, Mrs. Timoshenko-Kapitelman-Gdlyan is a (succ...Yes, Mrs. Timoshenko-Kapitelman-Gdlyan is a (successful) opportunist, - as Churchill said: <BR/><BR/>"England doesn't have permanent enemies or friends, permanent only her interests" <BR/><BR/>- same can be said about the Ukrainian Prime Minister. <BR/><BR/>The Russians are trying to buy a Ukrainian President? Didn't the Americans do the same? Oh, yes, they got the President for free didn't even pay anything Ukraine. <BR/><BR/>As for Timoshenko trying to borrow her way out of his mess, doesn't everyone? The USA are doing the same - printing and borrowing more money to "solve" (i.e., postpone the inevitable) the problems. <BR/><BR/>I hope Ukraine won't default.Adminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07581735636536513544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-39875847164028429992009-02-11T05:59:00.000+02:002009-02-11T05:59:00.000+02:00Here's what I am trying to figure out.Tymoshenko a...Here's what I am trying to figure out.<BR/><BR/>Tymoshenko and the Ukrainian government just spent BIG BUCKS on the Blackstone Group to "advise" them in their dealings with the IMF (International Monetary Fund).<BR/><BR/>The IMF told Ukraine to balance the budget and restructure the banking system.<BR/><BR/>Ukraine agreed to balance the budget - but it wasn't done. The banking system? Nada, null, zilch.<BR/><BR/>Why the hell do they need the Blackstone Group, if Tymoshenko and Parliament are simply going to ignore the IMF?<BR/><BR/>This is a serious, serious blunder on Tymoshenko's part.<BR/><BR/>It's bad enough to go to the Mafia thugs in roosha for a loan, with every prospect that those thugs will want not only your firstborn children, but also you dogs, your possessions, and you soul.<BR/><BR/>But it's even worse to lie about it.<BR/><BR/>The IMF came to Ukraine last week to see about lending Ukraine some more money out of the $16 billion commitment.<BR/><BR/>Looks like it's not going to happen:<BR/><BR/>http://online.wsj.com/article/SB123422995045566031.html?mod=googlenews_wsj<BR/><BR/>If Tymoshenko and her fellow idiots in Ukrainian government don't understand it, maybe the Blackstone Group can explain it to them.<BR/><BR/>Why the hell did they hire the Blackstone Group???<BR/><BR/>Dunderheads!<BR/><BR/>Disgusting!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-44024976858151410932009-02-10T16:08:00.000+02:002009-02-10T16:08:00.000+02:00You mean, she seduced Putin into borrowing her som...You mean, she seduced Putin into borrowing her some money? There’s a specific term for this type of transaction, and you know it:)<BR/><BR/>I voted “yes” because Tymoshenko’s stewardship of the economy makes the default scenario appear more likely. <BR/><BR/>Instead of balancing the budget, she wants to <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joggling" REL="nofollow">joggle</A> with more debt. <BR/><BR/>She does business with Putin. She wants to be president. But who will pay for Putin’s investment? Who will pay for Tymoshenko’s presidency?<BR/><BR/>Unless Russia wants to buy herself a Ukrainian president, the money would be better spent elsewhere. <BR/><BR/>But I think that’s <I>exactly</I> what Russia wants.Tarashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18139892487573795049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19297350.post-54609253329844520212009-02-10T04:50:00.000+02:002009-02-10T04:50:00.000+02:00Yes, nobody can outmaneuver Mrs. Tymoshenko she ev...Yes, nobody can outmaneuver Mrs. Tymoshenko she even managed to seduce Putin.
