If the Euro 2012 started tomorrow, tens of thousands of visitors from all over the world would arrive in Kyiv. Most of them will come to the heart of modern-day Ukraine: Maidan Nezalezhnosti or Independence Square.
When visitors come to this place many they will remember the courageous protests during the 2004 Orange Revolution and for some, even the student protests and hunger strikes during the downfall of the Soviet Union in 1990. Many others, perhaps not as well-versed in history, will come to the square simply because it is one of the nicest places in Kyiv to sit, rest, people-watch, grab a snack and buy souvenirs.

Dear Editor, On behalf of Black Iron Inc. (“Black Iron” or the “Company”), our shareholders, and your interested readership, we would like to express our concern over how the company has been portrayed in your recent editorial pieces and provide you with an appropriate introduction and true facts. ( Dec. 2 story"American TV personalities arrive to polish image of Ukraine's politicians" and Dec. 2 story "King bootlicker.") We believe we are in the process of building something of significance for our shareholders, and just as importantly, creating a major opportunity for Ukraine. To our knowledge this Project will be the largest foreign investment in Ukraine for a Greenfield (i.e. new) mine to date. Construction and daily operation of the mine will result in substantial job creation plus tens of millions in new tax revenues for the country. Dec 13, 2011 at 16:10 |

Dear Editor, Brian Mefford is factually wrong when he disputes the Kyiv Post’s charge (KyivPost editorial, Sept. 9, "Bad Choice) that corruption flourished under ex-President Viktor Yushchenko’s tenure.

Dear Editor, My name is Eva, I am Ukrainian and currently live in USA where I study biomathematics at local university. Approaching graduation, I face a tough decision – stay in US and pursue career here or come back to Ukraine. Kyiv Post story “Ukrainians debate identity as nation marks 20th year” helped make up my mind – I will back to Ukraine. Sep 16, 2011 at 18:50 | Eva Kukko |

In a recent Kyiv Post article, a colleague, Taras Kuzio, has called for a Ukrainian diaspora boycott of Ukrainian embassy events in protest of the trial of [ex-Prime Minister] Yulia Tymoshenko and her Aug. 5 arrest. Although I wholeheartedly share his deep concern with the regression of the rule of law in Ukraine, I most respectfully do not concur in the notion that boycotts of Ukrainian diplomatic events are the appropriate response.

Dear Editor: In the light of recent developments in Ukraine, specifically the imprisonment of ex-Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko and ex-Interior Minister Yuriy Lutsenko, as well as up to 50 other political prisoners, I call upon Ukrainians in the United States, Canada and elsewhere to boycott official events and celebrations at Ukrainian embassies.

Dear Editor: The current treatment of [ex-Prime Minister] Yulia Tymoshenko is unfair. It matters not if you support her party or opinions. The actions against her are harbinger of things to come and does not bode well for the citizens of Ukraine. Aug 9, 2011 at 17:32 | Joseph Gregg |

To the Editor: I am amazed at the continual slide of Ukraine towards the same establishment of government as that of Belarus! The part that worries me is that the people do not seem to realize it or are just too numb to stand up after the last five years of failed government. Mar 31, 2011 at 22:08 | Ben Powell |
