Imprisoned ex-PM Yulia Tymoshenko has been charged with more financial crimes.
"Yulia Tymoshenko was charged with organising the concealment of hard currency earnings of more than $165mn, embezzling budget funds and tax evasion totaling 47 million hryvnas/ $5.86mn," said a statement.
Yulia is already serving 7 years for abuse of power...and is her conviction.
Observers say these new charges will further cloud Ukraine's chance to join the EU.
