Ukraine: Is Orange Revolution Dead?

Scott W. Clark of Foreign Notes explains why president Yushchenko has become irrelevant and how freedom of the press and freedom of business are nothing but illusion now: “So is the Orange Revolution dead? It's a funny thing that now people are down to saying that it isn't dead because there's freedom of the press and freedom of business. (Some others would add free elections to that.) Those are important but they're pretty meager fare. The problem is that none of these–not a one of them– is institutionalized so not one of them is permanent.”
