May 7th, 2008 | NEW YORK (AP) -- Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is offering his expertise to a candidate for mayor of Kiev, Ukraine.
The ex-mayor's firm, Giuliani Partners, announced Wednesday that it is advising the campaign of Vitali Klitschko (KLECH-ko) in the May 25 election.
Klitschko is a former heavyweight boxing champion who is running against the incumbent mayor of Kiev, Oleksandr Omelchenk (Alexander O-MEL-chick).
Giuliani says his firm will advise the candidate on how to turn Kiev around by reforming city government.
Kiev is the capital of Ukraine and has 2.7 million people.
Giuliani failed in his own campaign for the Republican nomination for president. He has endorsed Sen. John McCain.
Giuliani served two terms as Mayor of New York City. He was credited with initiating improvements in the city's quality of life and with a reduction in crime.
Giuliani indicted eleven organized crime figures, including the heads of New York's so-called "Five Families", under the RICO Act on charges including extortion, labor racketeering, and murder for hire. Time magazine called this "Case of Cases" possibly "the most significant assault on the infrastructure of organized crime since the high command of the Chicago Mafia was swept away in 1943", and quoted Giuliani's stated intention: "Our approach...is to wipe out the five families."[31] Eight defendants were found guilty on all counts and subsequently sentenced on January 13, 1987 to hundreds of years of prison time.

I don't think that would be too tragic for Ukraine.

It would help if they knew who the incumbent was. LOL
