State of Economics as a science in Russia and Ukraine

Based on a population size, I would accept Ukraine has 3 times fewer scientific documents in Economics and Econometrics than Russia does, and Russia has 2 times fewer documents than US. In reality the picture is grim.
Here is the comparison. 
The overall rankings in Economics and Econometrics reveal that over 1996-2007, Russia is 36th and Ukraine is 55th.
So, what sciences is Ukraine good at? Physics and Astronomy!
