Another pitfall in the way of the Ukrainian economy could be , according to analysts TeleTrade, knocking private investors in Europe and the United States from future compensation Ukrainian administration. Among other problems , Ukraine is unable to pay its creditors. The country needs a serious additional funding reform and reschedule their debts.

As a result , if the U.S. and Western Europe is not banned its private investment funds aggressively seek compensation , Ukraine could be facing a series of complex and costly court cases.


Astute lawyers creditors , arguing that investment treaties give bondholders the same rights as direct investors , smuggling in cases of sovereign debt through international arbitration . They did this every time found the investment agreement with a wide open definition.
