There are a lot of ukrainians who dont like resident viktor likech but who also president Viktor Yanukovych but who also have a terrible. Ttitude in general to politics still, a plague on both your houses is the sentiment. They dont understand why people are risking their lives to get rid of this president. Others who have been in government previously did not effect any serious change. They are still having a great deal of difficulty convincing thatng on the middle fence this movement is worth following. The tolley klitschko Vitaly Klitschko is the new kid on the block, but his lack of experience works against him. Gulliver cragg joining us live from kiev.

The company is particularly attracted to the car industry. Unofficial figures indicate that onnians spent 4 billion imported cars last year. Sellinghad been 100,000 cars before sanctions. We think iran is a great market. We want to contribute to the development of this market. Even with all the sanctions, this market reached the level of 600,000, 700,000 cars per year. No contracts are expected to be signed on this week, though some irani and businessman some iranian businessmen on this weeks trip, though some theyan businessmen say will likely agree to deals.
