"Неконтролируемая инфляция на Украине"

"Buying votes
On the policy front, the inflation battle is complicated by two factors. The first is the highly competitive political environment at present. Ms Tymoshenko, who recently marked 100 days in office, seems as much engaged in running for election as in running the country. It is commonly assumed that she wants to become president in early 2010, when the next election is due. To this end, she has launched several populist policies designed to broaden her appeal beyond Western Ukraine and Kiev, the areas of Ukraine that enthusiastically backed Ms Tymoshenko and President Viktor Yushchenko during the 2004 Orange Revolution. The savings compensation initiative, for instance, is likely to be popular in depressed regions in the east of the country that have until now been squarely behind one of Ms Tymoshenko’s main rivals, former prime minister Viktor Yanukovych.
Ms Tymoshenko’s advocates would argue that she has little room for manoeuvre in the fiscal sphere. She inherited a pro-cyclical budget from her predecessor, Mr Yanukovych, and lacks the support in parliament to push through budgetary amendments. Although parliamentary arithmetic would make budgetary revision difficult if not impossible, it is difficult to envisage Ms Tymoshenko engaging in a bout of public belt-tightening at present as that would inevitably cost her public support. She is not alone in this, however: since 2001 Ukrainian wages have grown faster than productivity, although this is clearly an unsustainable trend."
Краткий перевод:
Покупая *избирательские голоса, *Тимошенко , *кот. готовится стать президентом в 2010 году, проводит ПОПУЛИСТИЧЕСКУЮ ПОЛИТИКУ расширяя свой авторитет *и влияние *среди западных регионов Украины *и в *Киеве, * кот. поддерживали её и Ющенко во время оранжевой революции.
Тимошенко не желает чтобы народ затягивал ремни в данное время , т.к. это будет дорого *стоить её поддержке во время избирательной кампании.
