also notes that the ex-speaker lack of regional political base means that he will depend on someone
like Baloha to help him in an election.
Interesting piece that presents a counter point to some of the postive press supporting Yatsenyuk
as an up and coming political leader in Ukraine. Maybe this is why Regions supported him as
next foreign minister?
Of course having two oligarchs back someone isn't enough to show his not a
good political candidate. Should we expect him to run for the presidency? His a possible
candidate and keeping his political views prevents his opponents from attacking him.
However, as Kuzio ponts out he has no political base so he may not be much of a threat.

Pinchuk has publicly revealed his financial support to Yatseniuk. Firtash provides (according to Kyiv insiders I have talked to) resources, such as Inter television appearances. That is why Yatseniuk is seen as a "Television Project" by many analysts in Kyiv.
By the way, I saw him today in his car in Kyiv. It is a Bentley with a personal number plate (001).
