I apologise to anyone following this blog for the long silence - Real world stuff kept me away but I hope to now be able to resume my average of roughly a post a week. And, to return, I decided to write about what is for me a pretty personal and important matter, ill-covered by most economic blogs I follow: Ukraine and its refusal to pursue talks to sign an Association Agreement with the EU. Not to mention that the manifestations on the European Square and the Kreshchatyk in Kyiv (see pictures above) are literally a stone throw away from our flat.
