Economic History

Ukraine

A lengthy period of political uncertainty distracted the government and parliament away from the real work of reform in late 2000 and early 2001. Despite the level of anxiety among business circles and foreign investors, however, economic growth continued throughout the crisis (although its pace has increased as the political situation has calmed). (references)

Indonesia

While organized to promote common economic, social, and cultural goals, ASEAN acquired a security dimension after Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia in 1979; this aspect of ASEAN expanded with the establishment of the ASEAN Regional Forum in 1994, which comprises 22 countries, including the U.S. Indonesia's continued domestic troubles have distracted it from ASEAN matters and consequently lessened its influence within the organization.
