- The prospect of opening of criminal case against Timoshenko and her environment is quite transparent, - editor-in-chief of FORUM.msk Anatoly Baranov considers. It was absolutely clear already next day after the failure on presidential elections - to place Julia Vladimirovna on trial is the most natural course of things, the more so there more than enough basis for it, it is not necessary to forge anything or to invent something. There's no legal defense for Timoshenko, she can be protected only politically raising the degree for power. Thus she pushes strongly Yanukovich to use legal mechanism of protection against her. The moods of the Ukrainian voter are such that most likely there she will not gather real protection in the near future. Political circles got overheated and tired. Julia Vladimirovna does not understand that it's not possible to live all the time "on breath", sometimes it is necessary to breathe out.
