Greetings, comrades, and welcome to the Eastern Border. Now, today, I want to start with telling you about the whole theme of the episode because,

oh wow, this, this took a bit longer than I had expected, and it's also one of the

weirder episodes because I guess we could name the team of this episode to be, how does

one fail a state? Like, you can make fun of this, but this is just, just I don't know lately I have seen so many

so many more things that just reinforce my my ideas about how Russia is just going to go

and collapse and it's going to be world largest Haiti and today well today we find out

how more and more degraded in their whole state is, and how war

is just making everything worse.

And I've cut out a bunch of news about the economy, and of course about the Pope, but I

want to wait until the new Pope gets elected, and then I will discuss also the Vatnik

reactions about the Pope dying, because, well, some of them were super happy and

it was just all a mess.

But this episode, again, I really had to, I had to pick and choose and cut off a bunch of

things because things get happening super quickly.

And while I am still in Netherlands and lots of things happen around me, so it was a mess.

Therefore, you might hear something more later on in other episodes about this stuff,

but, well, let's get on to the important stuff, because everything together, as usual,

each news ties in with other news. And a lot of tiny stuff

got kicked out and not included. For that, you should go to, and subscribe to me on Blue Sky for

at the Eastern Borders.LV. You know, that's my Blue Sky account. You can just find me there,

just the Eastern Border, and you'll find this. Just that, yeah, we have a lot of interesting things to talk about and I'm sorry for the long
