By Peter Leonard The Associated Press KIEV, UKraInE » The world rushed to help Ukraine on Thursday, with the Interna- tional Monetary Fund pledg- ing up to $18 billion in loans, the U.N. condemning the vote that drove Crimea into Russian hands and the U.S. Congress approving even harsher sanctions against Russia. Yet even with such in - tensive help to prop up Ukraine's teetering econ- omy, the prime minister warned of painful times ahead from the necessary economic reforms — and home energy prices were certain to rise quickly. Former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko, one of the country's most po - larizing figures, announced she would run for president in the May 25 vote — a move sure to usher in strong emo - tions in Ukraine's turbulent politics. President Barack Obama called the swell of interna - tional support a "concrete signal of how the world is united with Ukraine." "The decision to go for - ward with an IMF pro- gram is going to require a lot of courage," Obama said, speaking in Rome. "It will re- quire some tough decisions." Russia shrugged off the torrent of criticism directed at its annexation of Crimea. President Vladimir Putin's government announced it would set up its own pay - ment system to rival Visa and MasterCard after the two companies pulled their services from some Russian banks in the wake of interna - tional sanctions. In a passionate address to parliament in Kiev, Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk warned that Ukraine was "on the brink of economic and financial bankruptcy" and laid out the fixes needed to put the country back on track. "The time has come to tell the truth, to do difficult and unpopular things," Yat - senyuk said, adding that Ukraine was short $25.8 billion — "equivalent to the entire state budget for this year." The IMF loan, which is ex - pected to range between $14 billion and $18 billion, hinges on structural reforms that Ukraine has pledged to un - dertake. Ukraine's new govern- ment finds itself caught be- tween the demands of in- ternational creditors and a restive population that has endured decades of eco- nomic stagnation, corrup- tion and mismanagement. The reforms demanded by the IMF — which include raising taxes, freezing the minimum wage and hik - ing energy prices — will hit households hard and are likely to strain the interim government's tenuous hold on power. Ukraine, a nation of 46 million people, is battling to install a semblance of normalcy since President Viktor Ya nukov ych was ousted in February after months of protests ignited by his decision to back away from closer relations with the EU and turn to - ward Russia. Over the last few weeks, an interim government has formed, Ukraine lost Crimea to Russia and further possi- ble military incursions by Russia are feared. "This is a kamikaze gov- ernment that perfectly well understands that there is no other way to stabilize Ukraine," said Viktor Za - myatin, analyst with the Kiev-based Razumkov Cen- ter think tank. "The cata- strophic state of Ukraine's economy has forced the gov- ernment's hand." But he said it could pay a steep price. "It is hard to explain to the voter that the worsen - ing of the economy has hap- pened not because of the rev- olution, but because of Vik- tor Yanukovych's policies," he said. In Washing ton, Con- gress spoke with one voice against Russia's annexation of Crimea, passing legisla- tion in the House and Senate giving help to cash-strapped Ukraine and imposing sanc- tions against Russia. The Senate approved the legislation by voice vote at the same time the House was passing a different ver - sion on a 399-19 vote. L aw m a k e r s i n t e n d e d to get a f ina l measure to the W hite House by day's end. Sen. Bob Menendez, D- N.J., chairman of the Sen - ate Foreign Relations Com- mittee, said the votes were "critical for President Putin to hear." "We are in a danger - ous moment in history with global consequences and the world is watching," he said. worLd IMF to help Ukraine with up to $18 billion bailout EfrEm Lukatsky — thE associatEd PrEss People hold a huge ukrainian, crimean and crimean tatar flags during a rally in support of ukraine's territorial integrity, in kiev's independence square, ukraine, on thursday. By Justin Pritchard The Associated Press HonG KonG » Investigators are closer to solving an in- ternational aviation mystery thanks to a British commu- nications satellite and class- room physics. A masterful analysis of a handful of faint signals sent from Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 to an Inmarsat satellite led officials to con - clude that the Boeing 777 crashed in a remote part of the southern Indian Ocean, with all 239 lives likely lost. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak called the effort "a type of analysis never be - fore used in this investiga- tion of this sort." More precise information about the plane's last posi- tion is helping authorities re- fine the search being under- taken by planes and ships in seas 1,550 miles southwest of Perth, Australia. Investigators had pre - cious little information to examine otherwise because the transponder, identifying the jet to air traffic control - lers, was deactivated about the same time the jet veered off course from its original destination, Beijing, early March 8. The pings Even with other commu- nications shut down, the plane automatically sent a brief signal — a "ping" or a "handshake" — every hour to an Inmarsat satellite. The pings did not show the jet's location, speed or head - ing, but an initial analysis showed the last ping came from a position along one of two vast arcs north and south from the Malaysian Peninsula. A statement from Inmar - sat said it was able to use "detailed analysis and mod- elling" of transmissions from the missing flight and "other known flights" to describe "the likely direction of flight of MH370." The company did not re - spond to repeated requests for comment from The Asso- ciated Press. A company official told London's Daily Telegraph that engineers analyzed the pings by measuring the change in frequency related to the satellite's position, which helped them map the plane's movement. Inmar - sat compared those findings to other aircraft that used a similar path and found "extraordinary matching" that allowed them to deter - mine the plane had taken the southern route over the In- dian Ocean, Chris McLaugh- lin, senior vice president of external affairs at Inmar- sat, said. Doppler effect Think of a horn being honked in a passing car. To the driver, the sound is con- stant. To an observer, the sound is high pitched as the car approaches and is lower after the car passes. That's because on approach, each successive sound wave is sent from a slightly closer position to the observer. The sound waves get com - pressed, resulting in a higher frequency. The opposite happens as the car moves away. It's called the Doppler effect for Austrian physicist Chris - tian Doppler, who first put forward the theory in 1842. The same effect applies to "pings" from the plane to the satellite orbiting in a fixed position, which would arrive at a higher frequency if the plane was moving to - ward the satellite and de- crease in frequency when moving away. "By analyzing that you can determine speed and di - rection," said Joseph Bermu- dez Jr., chief analytics officer and co-founder of AllSource Analysis, a commercial sat- ellite intelligence firm. And by determining the area from which the last signal was sent, then estimating fuel left, it "could give you an approximate area of where the aircraft impacted." More analysis Inmarsat sent its data to investigators days after the plane went missing. But it continued to run its own analysis to see if it could wring out any more clues. The company's engineers were dealing with a "to - tally new area," Inmarsat's McLaughlin told the BBC. "This really was a bit of a shot in the dark." However, the latest information could only go so far in pinpointing the jet's location. "We can't help you with any closer data," he said. Satellite specialists were impressed by Inmarsat's analysis. "They exploited a digi - tal trail that was never in- tended for that use. It was just a shadow that somebody spotted and made use of," said David Cyganski, dean of engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. Gregory D. Durgin, a pro - fessor who teaches satellite communications at the Geor- gia Institute of Technology, said that because Inmarsat was using a different kind of satellite in a novel way, he ex - pects it would locate the last ping from the Malaysia Air- lines lane within "around 100 miles of precision." The company Inmarsat started out in 1979 as an intergovernmen- tal organization with the aim of helping ships communi- cate while at sea. It became a private com- pany in 1999 and listed its shares in London in 2005. Customers now include gov- ernments, airlines, broad- cast media, oil and gas com- panies, aid agencies as well as merchant shipping. They use handheld satel- lite phones, laptop size in- ternet devices and anten- nas linked to the company's 10 satellites to communicate.
