Yulia Tymoshenko was an outspoken critic of the 2004 Constitution prior to her election at President.

Thank you for your expert opinion. My faith in your vast knowledge about Ukraine is only slightly diminished by the fact that you incorrectly believe Yulia Tymoshenko has ever been the president of Ukraine. Also by your constant lying and pushing of Russian propaganda.

You're right, Yulia Tymoshenko was never won a popular election.

She was appointed Prime Minister in 2005 and lost a second round bid to become elected President in 2010 to Yanukovich, in what all observers at the time agreed was a free and fair election. The first and last time that's happened in deadbeat Ukraine's short history as an independent nation.

While Prime Minister she stole from the treasury with both hands, became a suspect in the murder of a rival, and remains an unindicted co-consprator in a massive criminal fraud case brought by the United States in which her business partner and former Ukrainian Prime Minister Pavlo Lazarenko was convicted.
