Before she entered politics, Tymoshenko was a successful businesswoman. In 1989, she started a chain of video rental stores, which made her quite rich. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, she had several high positions in Ukraine’s oil and gas industries and became one of Ukraine’s richest people. Her newly found fortune allowed her to start up her own political party.
进入政坛之前，季莫申科是一名成功的女商人。1989年，她开设了录像带租赁连锁店，这让她腰缠万贯。苏联解体之后，她在乌克兰石油和天然气产业担任诸多要职，这让她列入了乌克兰最富排行榜之列。她的财产也足以让她建立自己的政党。
During Ukraine’s Orange Revolution, the Western media dubbed her as the nation’s Joan of Arc. She was appointed as acting prime minister in January 2005, but lost power in September that same year when Ukraine’s president dismissed her government. She returned to power in June 2006, following national elections. She is widely tipped to one day become President of Ukraine.

There are many other sides to Tymoshenko’s life. In 2001, she was voted as one of the most beautiful women to ever enter politics. She is also known for her trademark plaited hairstyle, which became iconic during the Orange Revolution, and which she keeps to this day. She once joked her hairstyle was “a steering wheel to drive the state”.
