First bill has been put on the table: 35 billion for the first credit tranche.

As we have learned from the state credit mess in Europe in the past years, that bill won't be the last. Considering the fiscal state of things in the Ukraine, its just the first of many bills.

And how to prevent oligarchs taking their share of that money, has not been explained so far.

I only hope that Tymochenko does not become president. She has not been that much different and was much too close to said oligarchs in the past. She should not play any role in Ukrainian affairs, I think.

By the few occasion Klitschko commented on politics in German TV, I do not see any meaningful greatness or remarkable political qualification in him to make a claim for the presidency. The only thing he has always said is that "Europe must help the Ukrainian people". That is a bit thin, and in refusal of that he does not speak for all Ukrainians, not by a huge margin, I'd say. So, I respect the boxer and sportsman in him, absolutely. But the politician leaves me completely unimpressed. And the mere desire by him to become a politician, on a principal level speaks against him. I deeply mistrust people wanting to become politicians by their own desire.
