Baloha links Ukraine's economic downturn to Tymoshenko's premiership

Baloha called appointment of Tymoshenko as the prime minister another one mistake of President Yuschenko.
"This was another one mistake made by the president. He was then told: she wouldn't care about the economy, she would devote herself to the election campaign and sacrifice Ukraine's economy to this," remarked the Secretariat's chief.

He also pointed to the need of continuing Ukraine's cooperation with the International Monetary Fund and pronounced hope that the authorities would keep jointly working on this issue.

As Ukrainian News earlier reported, the incumbent Cabinet of Ministers led by Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko assumed office of December 18, 2007.
