On June 20, Yulia Tymoshenko officially announced that she’s running for president, which is no great surprise. The former prime minister tops the polls and it’s her race to lose.
A week prior, Tymoshenko held a summit with 5,000-6,000 participants in Kyiv to announce her vision. There she underlined the necessity for a “technological revolution” along with fundamental reforms, urging Ukraine to speed things up or risk being stuck one hundred years behind the modern world.
