As noted below:
At issue was a handwritten phrase that Ms. Tymoshenko wrote beside her signature early Sunday morning, after the document had already been signed by Mr. Putin. In English, she wrote, "with declaration attached."

Ms. Tymoshenko didn't become a billionaire by not playing the game her way.

In fact, she had spent time in prison a few years ago for doing exactly what her "declaration attached" asserts innocence for....wait for the surprise..."arrested on charges of forging customs documents and smuggling of gas between 1995 and 1997 (while president of United Energy Systems of Ukraine) but was released several weeks later." [sorry for using her wikipedia page as source]

As JoP has mentioned, this is a much bigger game that we are being allowed to see. My theory is that the Russians are playing a long game of getting little changes from the Ukraine every year and now it is getting to a turning point...so, as order is put into the system, disorder comes blaring out as propaganda and corruption at all the seams.

Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
