This is Ukraine !

People not understand nothing, right ?

So when a public figure is caught...all misunderstand...

these enveloppes were no black salary, nono...gifts !

LOL

You guys believe in your own lies...that starts to look like a sickness really !

Will Tigipko be charged ?

No ?

Well well...selective in who we charge, are we ?

Typical Ukrainian !

Frightning...very frightning !

Listen guys, if you want to steal or embazzel...do it good, do it beyond knowledge of people...but you guys start to be soo lazy and common with this disease that you even not hide it anymore...

But why should you right ?

People misunderstand ! It were gifts !

I feel vindicated as I did not trust Tigipko right from the start and was dismayed how many young Ukrainians were blinded by him.
