Council Head of the National Bank of Ukraine and one of the biggest beneficiaries of Ukrprominvest Group Petro Poroshenko plans to publish a book entitled "The Return of Depression Economics" by the Nobel Prize winning author in this field, Paul Krugman.

"I think that I'll publish it [the book]. I already have the rights," he said during a conference organized by the European Business Association.

He said that the book contains an analysis of possible economic reactions to various anti-crisis measures.

Poroshenko plans to translate and publish the book as soon as possible.

Krugman is an U.S. economist and publicist, and a professor at Princeton University. In 2008, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economic for his analysis of trade patterns and location of economic activity.
