Future of Ukraine - economy and country - Ukraine trends conference keynote speaker Dr Patrick Dixon

W artykule „Kto rządzi Ukrainą („Who Rules Ukraine) autor Wladimir Borysow pisze, że we wczesnych latach 1990tych, „sępy poparte przez finansową potęgę żydowskich bankierów międzynarodowych, kupowały za grosze, lub nawet konfiskowały za łapówki, wszystkie ważne przedsiębiorstwa państwowe na Ukrainie. W tym największe fabryki i całe działy nowo sprywatyzowanej wówczas gospodarki ukraińskiej

And Im not talking about extremely height corruption rate! As I was there few times, it was really problem! And another thing when I was in such cites like Lwow, biggest city in western part of country. They having there water max for 2 hours a day! Even in big hotels! Same situation in Uzhhorod in Slovak borders! This country is really now in bog problem during crisis! They was having lot too do in prosperity time. But now it is like in some African countries!

Now GDP of Ukraine is -23%, it is economical death! Ukraine is divided country. East part doesnt like Kiev and Ukraine. They want separate state, as they as Russians more likely. West of Ukraine is fascist ideology. So it is very not stable ground for investors as home war is really likely!

Friendly towards business? What a load of crap. 6/10 Ukrainians are exposed to corruption. For foreigners it is 10/10. Ukraine really really sucks!

Bullshit!!!! Stable? Are you out of your mind? Ukraine economy will go down even more and this entire situation happening because of the stupidest government policy that ever existed. Those idiots are fucking around with no reason; they just do not know what to do. How in fuck a hooker and a Farm accouter can lead the country?

Ukraine's economy IS DEATH NOW. World crisis killed Ukraine's economy .
I dont think that Ukraine will be one of the richest and strongest countries in Europe.
Stupid Yushenko is not good leader

Sir, would you be kind to answer these questions:
(1) In 1991 German economists have predicted that Ukraine could be one of the richest and strongest countries in Europe. Why it didn't happened so far?
(2). How do you see Ukraine in near future, 2012 to be exact?
(3). How world crisis will effect Ukraine's economy in a long run (will it actually emerge stronger after crisis or weaker)?

the economy gows now nearly 6% down xD!!!!!!

Also huge real estate boom was because banks started giving people loans to buy homes, unfortunately now market is down again, because a lot of people can't repay loans and facing foreclosure, kind of similar to situation in US.
