Tymoshenko believes she will be PM

As seen here.

“I don????????t have any doubt that parliament will support my candidacy if Yushchenko will propose it to the parliament,” Tymoshenko said.

And due to a written agreement with Yushchenko, she’ll have no problem getting the nomination either. Nice to hear. But there was something I found somewhat misleading about the article:

Some critics have suggested that naming Tymoshenko, a Western-leaning former deputy prime minister, to the premier????????s job could deepen the division between western and eastern Ukraine, a rift vividly exposed during the election.

“A rift vividly exposed”? You mean, the all of 18 tents set up in Donetsk? From what I know, the pro-Yanukovich side of Ukraine just isn’t that fiery about it.

On another note, ABC News makes reference to her nickname as “the gas princess.” Despite its real meaning, that isn’t a nickname I’d want to have if I were a woman…
