Russian speakers would rather live in a Russian speaking state than one where Russian has no official status, especially with Russia doing better economically and becoming more stable. Does an exodus always mean persecution? Surely you dont want to go into the details of THAT do you Serb?

The candidate that was publically demolished was Yushchenko. They ****ed him up with dioxin and Yanukovich attempted to get in millions of illegal ballots. Yanukovich was the one attempting a coup. Yushchenko won the election fair and square. By the way, the Russians have more of a strangle-hold on Ukraine then the west. It was mighty bold for the Ukrainean people to stand up against your dictator, Putin.

Oh, my. Fezy you are absolutely amazing ****. Do you have any idea what the **** are you talking about? Certanly not. Yushenko was the pm., and his rule was a complete ****-up he canceled dozens of very profitable (for Ukranine) deals with several countries to sign new, unprofitable deals with US. People weren't paid for their work, when he was a prime minister. His right hand - Mrs. Timoshenko wanted by interpol for corruption and shady deals.
On the other hand, from economic point of view, the government of Yanukovich IS THE MOST SUCCESSFULL government of Ukraine, since she get the independence in 1991.

Ukraine never got real independence from Moscow. Kuchma was a servant to Moscow and everybody knew it. Economic possibility and growth was squandered to please Moscow. Yushchenko represents a new change and you have no evidence to back yourself up. You only lay these stupid accusations that he cancelled these deals.. but with whom? The Russians? Of course... the most unprofitable country in the world. Ukraine has experienced economic growth under Yushchenko in the past, but Yushchenko was for the most part undermined by Kuchma. Kuchma was the one directing the country. And you are a liar about that accusation of corruption. Kuchma and Yanukovich are the old guards of corruption in Ukraine. It is well substantiated. You try to make accusations but you have no evidence at all. Ukraine never got true independence as Yanukovich was nothing more then a lackey for Moscow.

Yup, Yanukovich is the man responsible for the increase in global steel prices thats helped out a steel exporting country. Yup, China has NOTHING to do with it. Kinda like how the rise in oil prices shows the economic brilliance of Putin. (oh and Kaddafi, Hugh Chavez, Sukarnoputri, and so many others.)

So will you know concede the economic brilliance of the democratic leaders of Poland, Czecho, Hungary, and the Baltics, all of whom are doing so much better since theyve left youre empire?

How can I prove anything to such an ? No matter what I'll say, you'll keep whining- "no, no, no". I know you Fez, you are hopeless.
The fact that Ukraine has never experienced SUCH economic growth as under Yanukovich's government is undeniable. All you have to do is to make a basic research about the subject, before engageing into debate.

Yanukovich was responsible for a world wide rise in steel prices? That's one question that was posed in the past. And what happened under Yanukovich's government? No changes to the Ukrainean economy really. It is plagued with inefficency and corruption. 95% of the wealth in the country is on Yanukovich and Kuchma's personal friends. The now former ruling party of Kuchma had all the wealth. Something Yanukovich was responsible for. You are the hopeless one. Afterall, you Russians manage to elect a dictator like Putin.. wait... Putin somehow won what was it... 75% of the vote in your country...? I wonder why nobody investigated that. Yanukovich and Kuchma allowed corruption to get out of control. You have to do basic research on your own country and Ukraine. You obviously know nothing.
