Horace heard you say Ukraine was about 80 million people - I think it is closer to 50 actually (if that many). Also - and how to say this delicately - I think the business climate there is extremely difficult to say the least - corruption, bribery, etc. are real problems.

Yes, you're right. The total number of subscriptions is about 55 million. Regarding the second point, the issue of bad business climate exists in many places where iPhones are sold. I'm not sure what makes Ukraine exceptional.
