Two Ukrainians made it to FT's 50 emerging market leaders

Rinat Akhmetov and Viktor Pinchuk (who likes to be written as Victor though) are two Ukrainians who made it to the top 50 emerging market business leaders chosen by the Financial Times. Certainly, Rinat Akhmetov and Viktor Pinchuk are the most internationally visible and richest businessmen in Ukraine. Both of them have invested significantly lately to gain social and international recognition, which is definitely reflected in their being included in the list. Moreover, if compared to Russian oligarchs Ukraine's representatives are somewhat poorer they may boast more independence from the state.
