Reuters and correspondingly CNN provided slightly wrong translation of 
what
was said in Russian . What Lopota said is:

'The financial idealism that the previous Corporation leadership had 
was
leading not to the flights to the moon, but to bankruptcy'.

What Reuters/CNN said is following:

"We intend to introduce emergency administration for the corporation,
because the financial idealism that existed here has led not to 
flights to
the moon, but to bankruptcy," Interfax quoted company chairman Vitaly 
Lopota
as saying.

The key difference are between 'was leading' and 'has led' that are of
obviously different  meaning in English.

Dmitry Payson

Dear colleagues:
Due to the change of official transliteration of my Cyrilic name to 
Dmitry
Payson, I am changing the e-mail address to dpayson at mail.ru as well. 
The old
address will be operational for some time as well. Please refresh your
address books.
