20 WWW.UNWLA.ORG “НАШЕ ЖИТТЯ”, ЖОВТЕНЬ 2015 “The biggest problem now is that Ukraine doesn’t recognize any legal documents issued in Crimea, like birth and death certificates,” he says. Petukhov doesn’t think that Western- educated Ukrainians are necessarily better pro- fessionals, but have valuable experience. "Proba- bly, the European education is more valuable right now since we are integrating into Europe,” he says. Petukhov still doesn’t know his salary, but expects it to be low and plans to live on savings. Olena Tregub, who works in the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade, says her money is running out after six months on the job. Tregub, a graduate of Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy in the U.S. and Central Euro- pean University in Hungary, dropped her own consulting company in the U.S. to work for the Ukrainian government. She also has contributed to the Kyiv Post on occasion. In the ministry, she gets Hr 12,000 a month. She says her savings will be enough for six more months. “To be able to have this kind of job, you already need to be a financially independent person,” she says. In the ministry she leads a department in- volved with international funding and technical assistance from abroad. “When American diplomats are here and they hear that I’m from the Fletcher School, they immediately have some level of respect because they graduated from this school themselves,” Tregub says. While Tregub works with programs in- volving millions of dollars in donor aid, her de- partment lacks the money for basics. She had to pay for two Wi-Fi routers to get Internet service, for example.
