February 7th will be the deciding day. If Yulia Tymoshenko wins Ukraine will become an EU country. If Viktor Yushchenko, old style politics. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/ukrainian-elections#post-40 Fri, 15 Jan 2010 18:31:25 +0000 Mark 40@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>Yulia Tymoshenko is the only real choice in this Ukrainian election. The Viktor Yushchenko is a buddy of Putin and this will not help anyone but Moscow, but not the Ukrainians. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/ukrainian-elections#post-38 Wed, 13 Jan 2010 11:10:35 +0000 admin 38@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>I think people care very much about this Ukrainian election. They are not like Americans in Ukraine where everyone is holding hands swaying and singing in a trance &#39;yes we can&#39; - however, the fate of Ukraine hangs between two worlds. And every Ukrainian I know cares very much. Maybe you do not speak Ukrainian so you are not talking to the guy on the street but people care.</p> <p>Yulia represents a chance to be like Poland, a fully integrated Slavic country in the EU, and a better life. </p> <p>The other guy is a old buddy of Putin. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/ukrainian-elections#post-37 Tue, 12 Jan 2010 13:57:37 +0000 admin 37@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>At this juncture I think everyone has to support Yulia Tymoshenko. She is a more western leaning and the most spirited of the Ukrainian politicians. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/russia-and-democracy#post-25 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 09:49:42 +0000 Olga 25@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>I have no idea why Russians prefer Putin than true democracy. Granted Putin was a strong leader, but nothing helps a country more than free movement of labor and capital between countries and open economy with no corruption. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/ukrainian-elections#post-24 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 09:44:50 +0000 Sasha 24@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>Western Ukraine is the best barometer of who would be best for Ukraine as it has less Russian influence than Eastern Ukraine. </p> http://peopleandlanguages.com/topic/ukrainian-elections#post-23 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 09:42:38 +0000 Thomas 23@http://peopleandlanguages.com/ <p>I go back and forth as to who I think is the best leader for Ukraine. I am thinking at this point it might be Yulia Tymoshenko as she is the one that will most likely get Ukraine into the EU as well as NATO. </p>
