And write your congressperson. Lift the Jackson-Vanik trade restrictions on Ukraine. As Peter Savodnik writes for Slate:
...if the White House views Yushchenko as something more than a democratic motif, a scar-faced vindication of President Bush's free-people, free-market gospel, if the Americans truly wish for the Ukrainian to succeed, they must give him every bit of support they can. They should repeal Jackson-Vanik. They should help Yushchenko convince his people that they were right to tear down the old regime.
