Meet Janika Merilo: Ukraine's New Minister For Attracting Investment
A month ago we discussed the influx of 'foreigners' to help the Ukraine government 'manage' the country. As UA Today reports, foreign appointments have become a key part of Ukraine's mission to reform its economy and crack down on corruption (and ensure American interests are taken care of?) and now boats 3 non-Ukrainian cabinet members. And now a 4th non-Ukrainian - Estonian Jaanika Merilo - will step up to the plate 'tasked with bringing more foreign investment into Ukraine and improving the country's business climate'. We suspect she will have some success...
3 non-Ukrainians already cabinet ministers including American Natalie Jaresko
Jaanika Merilo has become the latest foreign national to join the Ukrainian government. The Estonian has taken up a position as an advisor to the minister for economic development who is himself also a foreigner - Lithuanian Aivaras Abromavicius. Merilo will be tasked with bringing more foreign investment into Ukraine and improving the country's business climate.
Foreign appointments have become a key part of Ukraine's mission to reform its economy and crack down on corruption. The country now boasts three non-Ukrainians in the ranks of its cabinet. Alongside Abromavicius are US-born Natalie Jaresko as finance minister and Alexander Kvitashvili, who is now Ukraine's Health Minister. All three were granted Ukrainian citizenship just hours before they took up their posts.
...
Merilo's appointment means there are now two high-profile foreigners working in the ministry for economic development. They will undoubtedly need all their international experience to help pull Ukraine out of recession, with the economy having contracted by some 7.5% in 2014.

We wish her luck...

who's been hitting that poor lady on her mouth?
(seriously... who came up with the idea that injected lips were attractive?)
Putin belted her! That bastard!
I'd invest in that...
All in ?
You think that's bad? Check out Farrah Abraham--she just got her lips injected too. I'll leave the google seach to you if you are so inclined to look.
If that was the only one in the bar, I would hit it..
after the 5th Scotch.. after midnight.
Time and Scotch works for me the same way distance and Photoshop works for her.
She's scary.
Still think when it comes to ridiculous, Obama takes the cake.
Well, Hello, MERILO, goodbye heart!!!
That's Lorena Bobbitt all over again. Is she taking that knife to the "investor" meetings?
The Zionists are aggressively moving to try and salvage Ukraine as a de facto (i.e. stealth) NATO Command & Logistics center on Russia's doorstep.
Nothing is beneath them or their Nuland-Kagan type PNAC bedfellows, including heavily advertising smut/porn, in doing so.
The Ukraine is a joke that get funnier each time you tell it.
Nice DSL's.
Jaanika Baby Ya, cannot remember the name of the movie with John Cusack.
Are we allowed to vote for the new FED Head ?
Of course James Grant comes in first...but she might add some necessary fluffer interest between the CB balance sheets.
Just more lip service...
I'd love to invite her over for coffee, tea ... or something, but I'm afraid she looks too scary for me.
You're very convincing, Janika....I'm all in and ready to make a deposit.
With those DSL's, she'll suck the cash right outta everyone.
I wonder which dual passport oligarch's chrome hitch she has been sucking lately.
Madame Clinton just hit the reset button ... BTW, where's Bill these days?
You mean, Special Ambassador to Ukraine, William J. Clinton?
If I'm not mistaken that second photo is actually Angelina Jolie displaying the classic illuminati single-eye (all-seeing eye) symbolism.
I am Chumbawamba.
Home, and not alone.
You dont need to understand a word of Russian just click on this link to see pics and where she got "inspiration" for those photoshots http://sharij.net/9797 She is like one of those cheap Chinese imitations and Ukrainian politicans think they've hit a jackpot with this "negotiator"
That is powerfully sad.
Angelina in her prime was the bomb. It's crazy to pin up your own photos next to hers. It is like a hamburger putting up its pictures next to a steak. Bad idea. Hamburger is good, no doubt. But it will lose against steak almost every time along every dimension. If you want cheap, only then is hamburger best.
I did a little modeling when I was younger. This is pathetic. I don't mean to be catty.
Long Escorts, Hookers, and Blow - following the Nevada Bunny Ranch business model.

Noticed the all-seeing eye reference in the second picture
She looks more like the arm candy of Dr. No in a Bond film, except this time Dr. No is some guy named Aivaras Abromavicius and they no longer have any shame about living out their fantasies at public expense. It's just expected that reality is as cheesy as a Hollywood B movie.
She looks like she tried to blow up a bus and burned her mouth on the tailpipe. Nice bod, though. Prolly batshit crazy.
Batshit crazy?
Maybe those last two pics could be a clue.
Ukrainian Government position could be another.
Bs , a little make up , a nice dress and she shows you a little cleavage and you are ALL IN buddy, don't kid yourself.
Americam gigolo funny as shit.
Okay, I checked it out. And I thought it was terrible when Baby had her nose done.
Why do women hate themselves this much?
pods
I'd make a deposit.....
They listen to and follow trends created by the woman-hating gays in the industry.
Looks like the people on the Simpsons.
Look at it this way.
Instead of using her flat head for your beer can holder, you can use her upper lip while she's ...
...consulting?
Naw, just the tip.
Who the fuck am I kidding. All in. That woman is just begging to become a bank, injected lips not withstanding.
Night time sperm bank deposit. Sit on a happy face!
Damn Cowboy, I know you are one tough hombre but you've gots the order of events backwards there amigo.
Sit on happy face, then night time deposit...
in terms of net flows, i bet she beats our asses
In terms of net flows, I'm surprised that nobody on here has made any wisecracks about liquidity injections.
But would you tongue-punch her fart box?
Sick bastard. ;->
Poor girl looks like she swallowed something causing an alergic reaction.
Swallowed the chrome off the trailer hitch.
Golf ball -
through a garden hose
The creature from Donatella Versace in situ.
Humans are gross.
Apparently she does know her way around a couch which is a huge plus towards getting a head in politics. It looks like she's destined to work under the very best of Ukraine top leadership. Best of luck to her in this new carear.
It beats trolling for potato.
But hey, fantasy land is thriving so why not?
"But would you tongue-punch her fart box?"
That line never gets old.
I may not invest in it, but I sure would make a deposit:)
And she loved it!
I'll wait in line with my Deposit Box key.
I hope they take pennies and have to spread them out and count each one...
(seriously... who came up with the idea that injected lips were attractive?)
Are you implying her pimp doesn't know what he's doing? Them's fightin words.
"Invest in Ukraine and fuck our minister for free!"
well Hollywood is overtly merging with Govt...no subtly required.
Nice to see the 'one eyed' shot and the 'blood' shot. How cute and totally appropriate for someone who does not play golf but is still a pet goat. Here is 5min of creepiness with pet goats Bush, Obama and...well really we're the pets....

Large pouty lips? Are you kidding
She used to have large poultry lips, that is probably why she got them done.

I see what you did there... clever!
ah, she make sum ting long.

Here is a picture where her mouth is not swollen like that. She is actually prettier without it.
Yup, lips took a big downgrade.
With emphasis on the word 'big."
Much. But I guess some people like having their mouth look like and engorged vulva.
Isegi Ukrainas nimetatakse sellist käitumist poliitiliseks prostitutsiooniks.

Even in Ukraine, this behavior is called political prostitution. Jaanika Merilo , Ukraine in the companyWell thank the stars for Google translate...

Is that botox or did she suck on a hot exhaust pipe?
Those puffed up lips increases their sex appeal with the brothers in the hood.

# "(seriously... who came up with the idea that injected lips were attractive?)"
Some guy with lip injections to sell. The purpose of TV is to make women feel inadequate, among other, similarly nefarious purposes.
Goldman or JPM alum?
No alum needed with that type of approach.
Just broke it off with my Polish gf but want to stay in the region. Any links to Ukraine business permit applications?
You can't game her from a projection of low value, go in as if you're a banker, not a businessman.
Whatever, Ivy league offspring for sure.
i've got a word for that. skank
Slutern sounds nicer.
I'm partial to the term "psychological train wreck".
I will see your train wreck and raise you a "Hot Mess."

At least she ain't Yellen....
Yeah, this girl must have an intimate understanding of inflation.
Not Yellen! My first thoughts exactly! That pumpkin pie hair cutted freak is a boner killer beyond compare or argument!
I was ready to sign up until I saw the picture with the knife. I don't want her going all Lorena Bobbitt on me. I've grown quite attatched to my Johnson after 51 years.
Doc you don't have to worry if you can tie a proper knot!
Okay, that was bad, junked myself.
pods
I just can't stop laughing... the mix of fear and (sexual) awe amongst the commenters in this thread is hilarious. I seriously imagine most of you wincing after a brief moment or two of viewing the sexy shots.
But relax its not she who wants your Johnson, its not even her masters - your Johnson's are merely to be elevated as significant toys for teasing whilst your jobs and banks accounts are stolen. ..
Useless:
Give us a break - the woman is a whore from the word "Go!"
No serious business woman would allow the world to see them in those poses. It's a combination of soft-core slut and hard-core psycho.
It's obvious this woman made it up the PR ladder with her eyes - and legs - wide open. Nothing on her list denotes anything involving serious financial decision-making. It's all Chamber of Commerce type fluff - something to make her look like a professional while all she really does is shake hands and sleep with the oligrachs.
This just shows the depth of depavity that the .01% is today. Now they have no shame of putting their escorts out there in plain view. It is truly an in-your-face statement that they consider themselves gods - far away from any need to appear respectable.
This is the surest sign of the end of Western civilization; total decadence preceeding total collapse.
-30-
aww common I know that - but you gotta admit the pics are laid out for a particular reflex reaction.
No point us girls and boys both getting defensive over such overt crap! Absurdity is reaching new heights every day, nice to laugh at it with a few ZHrs no matter how poor our taste in humor can be at times (and yep, I get kinda shocked at times on this site).
A rare laugh because I totally understand and feel the demise of western civilization. Fighting it as much as I can my friend, starting with my-self education.
The reflex reaction I get from her last pic in particular is 'creepy'. Great, stab yourself in the mouth and start bleeding. Is flowing blood being repackaged as sexy now?
Looks like an allergic reaction lol
hookers and blow great for GDP
So...couches, lipstick, knives, and suture kits are going to save the Ukrainian economy?
maybe she's got contacts in the prostitution world, that's a big plus for GDP!
Government = professional prostitutes
So yeah, the proof is right in our faces, she has contacts in the prostitution world.
Ya think!!
I just cannot stop laughing and I cannot let go of this thread......best comedy ever. The B.S. on this occasion is so etremely in everyone's face with such a 'pretty' face provoking thoughts of some kinda excitement and then a moment later fear and the realization this is a high level govt dude with a knife.
Once again, I can show friends that our real Prime Ministers / Presidents are CFR approved movie tools like 'sexy' George Clooney /Rainbow Dame Angie Jolie and the BIS servants with dominion over billions of souls...
Probably H. Biden's new love interest. Jobs for all.
What is she gonna do? Suck off investors to bring capital to cum to Ukraine?
Georgr Soros is ready to shoot 50 billion $ straight in her mouth . Yeah!

she forgot her best skill : blowing cocks
her profile is overblown lol
For god sake you are a sad sick dollar... she does all that mega cv stuff, maintains a model look with hours in a clinic, poses for freak one-all seeing eye/blood licking freak photo's before lunch time on her 30th birthday.
Its fabulous, just fabulous I say!
I cannot wait for 1st April 2015.
That made me smile. I like the cut of your snarky puppy jib!
seems really smart, so why'd she go and ruin it with those photos on facefuck?
Because she's a freak?
"For my first official act: Collagen lips for EVERYBODY!!"
There's something very strange going on there.
BTW, when I'm look at a CV and find the applicant hasn't held a single position for more than 3 years it raises red flags. Best case they're a hopper, worst case there's a trail of train wrecks behind them.
Someone needed to say it.
Hopper from one dick to another.
Her CV indicates that she's performed thousands of blowjobs satisfactorily. No wonder her lips are swollen.
CVs on linkedin are not to be taken seriously. CVs are bloated and made to look if the person is top in everything. The more 'skills' and experience mentioned the bigger the BS.
I am not saying that she is not smart but it looks to me that she sucked her way into jobs. It is all about making connections with the right people.
"Initiative to make the difference in Ukraine - "Brain Basket of Europe". Goal- to be IT powerhouse of Europe and driver of growth of Ukraine by training additional 100 000 software developers, getting them job in international IT industry, creating new start ups and success stories in IT."
Come on, please. In a country where internet penetration and use is probably limited.
Keep laughing idiots. You think it is any better in Zionist-controlled America?
Working for many top A&P 50 companies, I met a good many good-looking almost illiterate whores fucking their way to become corporate directors and Sr. executives.
America is fucked up big time but other countries are even in much deeper shit. Nevertheless, our clock is ticking because we became a colony with too few people with a desire to be free. WE became a nation of slaves whose Masters are not very bright.
I will make the first deposit.
Just Google imaged: Ukranian model. The jury is in, this chick pulled more than strings for this to be her next position.
will the Ukranian people still fight for economic freedom in 10 years time
.
Still? Come on, the only thing they've been fighting for is debt enslavement to the IMF for the next several generations.
But hey, at least they get to dress up and play Nazi Torchlight Parade, so that's gotta be worth something.
She's hideous.
Well, she's not. There is a truckload of makeup involved though.
Those lips look like they almost split after the last injection. Looks painful.
this is a Ukrainian Scarlet Johanssen who wants to become Angelina Jolie; a political denier; and get the world to make her most sexy INTELLIGENT woman of the world.
Ambiition beyond being sexy; its all about power baby.
I'll give her 30€ investment
A correct phrase, though admittedly it comes with some historical freight, is "carpetbaggers".
Some people can't leave well enough alone.
not sure how anyone could seriously take this young lady seriously in any serious capacity as a serious professional or serious appointee to a serious government position... even in Hollywood Ukraine?
totally...but she's got a magical cv and a magical vanishing photo album that beats Obama's magical vanishing documented history .... Wonder what Ms Rivers would say if she were still around?
its such a magical world, so much disappears (like air planes, buildings, pensions, evidence) except when it comes to the financial movements of every average Joe and then suddenly not a single sexy pout counts for sh't.
Nice plug for the Illuminati there in the second pic. She should have made the cover of The Economist mentioned in another thread.
Gimme an ass grindin video with Janika and Nuland and I will think about it. No spanx, wanna see all the flaws.
So how much for business?
WOOOOF!
Is that you barking, or is she a dog?
You would have to be a sick bastard to invest in Ukraine if your eyes were open at all.
Israel, the sick bastard capital of the galaxy.
Lips by L'Oréal ... what's with knifing the lips. Is she trying to let the air out?
She's trying to mimic Angelina Jolie https://www.google.com/search?q=angelina+jolie+blood
But Angelina has real lips.
Agreed,...she's not as hot as Eugenia, but twice as hot as Nadia...sort of an early days 'Jennifer Lopez' look going on in that last shot, and of course the knife adds to the allure of danger and self reliance, and possibly references some cooking skills? Its a go!
US is now placing Vampires/Ghouls to govern the nations that it subjugates. How cute (not).
She must have failed the casting call for rob zombie....

Who better to promote trout farming?
Nice.
Very bad girl.
Very nice.
This comment should have more than 6 ups. You all ain't reading.
Edit: I will spell this out. Pocket trout farming. Trout lips on the woman. How do you farm (grow, harvest) those pocket trout, attract business as you all accuse her of?
Pearl necklaces before swine.
You do realize that votes as well as comments provide the source material for the matrix to classify you?
it is a classification tool. A psych evaluation.
some get a lot more pearls than others, just an observation
You are evil too, I like it.
WTF did she do to her lips? It looks like a butcher filled them with sausage meat.
Say what you will. America has dolts like Maxine Waters, rich dogs like Nancy Pelosi, and zionist-mob power-whores like Hillary Clinton infesting it's highest offices.
The pictures of Sarah Palin holding an automatic were fake; but, pictures of her in a bikini OR holding an automatic weren't.
The real question is: wtf does this woman know about trade and finance.
