Do you have any recent update or info on Ukraine’s current economic state? I have heard that Russia will be issuing a “report” in October which is expected to bring very bad news for that county. Does the Ukrainian government have a similar plan or report other than what you note here? Any other websites you can suggest for my edification and keeping current on what’s happening in Ukraine?

Thanks for a good article!

It is my personel opionin that Ukraine’s place in eurpoe, regardless of what the EU decides, has much to offer, because of it’s people amd land. The westernized cultures are forgetting the true gifts that still are in force(mainly heart and soul). Again this I sense is where your people still can be in a place to rally from!! To much has been taken away from there, from all nations, because of greed and callousness… shame, it seems no one looks clearly in the mirror anymore!

I am most troubled with my own nations(USA) brutality, and think in Ukraine still is land and people where a light may shine, if citizens just looking within and care for each other. Quit looking to belong to others(outside), focus on living close to the earth, make the changes for health and healing!

There is a rally for peace later this year around the globe. Let it start now at home, and perhaps then particpate in the same! Look, poor economies are not the problem, just the result greed and hatred, there is the real challenge! I support Ukraine in prayer and hope, not to mention, a place to live by choice. We are to bold to suggest /advise on the future as it can all change by our actions!

It has been said, that “my people, who are called by my name, should lift up thier voice and repent(change), I will hear thier request and heal thier land” It’s not a matter of whether you believe this! You write articles and publish to the people, so let them hear and decide what they will do? Who will care for the children, the broken hearted, will you also turn aside from this call? You decide!

As a Ukrainian myself, I would be very happy to be optimistic for Ukraine’s future, but it’s looking pretty bleak.

I think that Ukraine is fairly European, and I would be very happy for it to join the EU, but it is not happening in the next five years — at least. Perhaps is it gets the new leadership, and the EU likes it, then Ukraine might get more foreign aid and expert advise on how to address its numerous problems. But for now, it’s getting worse, not better.

I saw on the TV an emission, there was an interview of the Russian ambassador of Paris, and he said Ukraine is a part of Russia, what amazed all the participants and the presenter.

But what I hear from Ukrainia in France in the news is that all go bad. There are the constant fighting between President Yushchenko and premier Timoshenko. The ukrainian state have financial difficult, the Russia is hard with ukrainia (give a lot of russian passport in Crimea for perhaps a day annex this district, crisis of gaz, there is a lot of this terrible disease sida… Can we be optimist for futur of Ukrainia ?

I have to travel in Ukrainia in 2002, from all country where I travel Spain, Germany, Polen, Austria, Georgia it was the country that I have prefer for his nice people. I wish the best for Ukrainia and I hope that this country will enter in Europa. For my familly, friend and colleague, Ukrainia is in Europa.
