New York Judge Dismisses Ex-Ukrainian PM Yulia Tymoshenko's Money Laundering Lawsuit

A New York federal judge dismissed a civil lawsuit Friday from former Ukrainian prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko, who had accused her political opponents of running a racketeering business in the U.S. that led to her imprisonment in 2011. Just over a decade ago, Tymoshenko led the so-called "Orange Revolution," which swept her into power on a promise to tackle government corruption, voter intimidation and electoral fraud.
