Ukraine, because of a troubled recent history, is trapped in many paradoxical laws and business is observed quite differently than in the west. However, after the country's break from Soviet ties, there are unprecedented opportunities for the entrepreneur, but not many people speak English and the use of interpreters may be necessary; knowledge of German, Russian or Ukrainian will be useful. During meetings formal attire is observed for both men and women, although women are not traditionally part of the business world, and visiting businesswomen will undoubtedly be subjected to chauvanism. Meetings often include informalities and sociable questions, and will begin with a welcoming alcoholic drink, which would be considered rude to refuse. These are often used for character evaluation and it is considered impolite to delve straight into business matters. Typical business hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday.
