The leader of the all-Ukrainian association Batkivshchyna (Motherland), which unites more than 150 thousand most active Ukrainian citizens.
"Tymoshenko is steadily ranked among top five most prominent Ukrainian politicians..."
Yuliya Tymoshenko was born in 1960 in the city of Dnipropetrovsk (Ukraine). She received university education as an economist-cyberneticist and earned a candidate of economic science degree. She authored more than 50 research works.
Tymoshenko started her career as an economist at Dnipropetrovsk mechanical engineering plant; later on she headed one of Ukraine’s major industrial corporations, then was elected a memberl of parliament and the head of the Verkhovna Rada Budget Committee. She served as a vice prime minister for fuel and energy sector in the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine.
(snip)When in Cabinet, Tymoshenko took the unprecedented steps to de-criminalize the “backbone” of Ukraine’s economy, its fuel and energy sector. In 2000, the Government paid to the population the additional UAH 18 billion, out of which UAH 9 billion was raised through withdrawing costs from the shadow economy, prohibition of barter and introduction of the principles of competition into the energy market. Being deprived of their “shadow” incomes by Tymoshenko’s reforms, the financial and industrial lobbyists from the presidential circles got the President to sign the decree on her dismissal in January 2000.
In February 2001, Tymoshenko headed the united democratic opposition, which demanded the dismissal of President Leonid Kuchma suspected of a number of crimes, such as involvement in the murder of journalist Georgy Gongadze, falsification of the presidential and parliamentary election results, power abuse, corruption, etc.
On February 13, Yuliya Tymoshenko was arrested on charges brought by the Prosecutor General’s office against her. General public regarded this fact as a savage punishment of the democratic movement.

As an economist, she'd say the water was underallocated.
As an engineer, she'd say the glass was overdesigned.
A+++ in my book.

Now I will agree on that about Pubbie Babes!!
BTW: Have you ever noticed lib's have waaaaaay too many hair folicles per square meter on their bodies? (they always use metric so as to appear "global").
Not to mention she is always after moose and squirrel.
Krikee! If that's a babe, we've got to do some serious reconsideration of our collective standards.
I guess the Pamela Andersons of the world are more your type. Fake blonde, fake boobs, plastic face, but nice to look at from a distance. I'll take this 44 y.o. gem over any hollywood starlet.
Natasha Fatale! Now THAT is a babe!!
Is she in favor of the stable but crooked existing government or is she part of the movement that wants honest Western European style socialism in the Ukraine?
Who is the blonde gal in your pic??
