Addressing an international economic forum in the Lviv oblast Oct. 2, Premier Tymoshenko said in 2010 Ukraine will turn the corner on economic recession.
The premier stressed the need to develop the country’s regions and implement appropriate reforms. Of top priority is to decentralize the central government and financial resources, giving more say to local governments and letting them use part of the local taxes for their own needs.
Ukraine’s depressive regions should be turned into the developing ones. To do this, such areas must have tax breaks, Tymoshenko said.
