As was a direct consequence of WWII and the holocaust. Fiction genre literature is decline in Ukraine and the surrounding countries. Thre will come a time when Ukraine War will count as history not present time.

Couldn’t also be that there’s still a surge for escapism so some still demands fiction literature?

Turkey has not said they oppose a NATO expansion, they refuse to grant Sweden and Finland NATO status which would fasttrack the membership process which usually are nothing but a technicality and paper work. I believe Turkey wants to see the weapons embargo lifted so that it would enable them to import military weapons from Sweden and other NATO countries. What they really want is NATO to remove some of it’s regulations and sanctions towards Turkey. Turkey is an active war with Syria and as a direct consequence of this they have a list of 33 Swedish and Finnish people that they want to see extradited to Turkey. Let’s not forget Erdogan’s popularity among the Turkish people is declining so this could be seen as an attempt to lure some voters back.

Speaking of fiction, lately I’ve heard so many rumors about Putin this, and Putin that. Not sure I believe any of them to be true, some might while others probably aren’t true. For example there’s statesments about Mr. Putin’s declining health some say he now is terminally ill in cancer with approximately three years to live. On top of that he supposedly also has Alzheimers and therefore require constant and regular medical treatment. With this desinformation war from Russia you can’t really trust anything. What I believe is true is that it’s very likely there’s been several assassinations attempts on Puyin’s life. To put a stop to them it seems logical to claim Putin is terminally ill that way those that might have wanted to see him dead might believe there’s no need.

The war in Ukraine is still ongoing and very active in Donbas and Luhansk region. That’s not considered to be a war by Russia but instead it’s labelled a special rescue operation it’s mission is to denazify Ukraine and rescue the civilan population from its Nazi rule. This means Russia is under investigation of war crimes for breaching rules of war, they won’t be the ones who win the peace by the looks of it.

There’s no food shortage in Ukraine, because Russia still claims Crimea and now Donbas and Luhansk it’s no longer possible to export Ukrainian grains from the Black Sea. Russia is only willing to allow cargo ship to pass if most of the Russian sanctions are lifted. Speaking of sanctions Chelsea soccer club has a new owner which would mean it would be possible fir the club to extend players contracts, and maybe secure new players too. Most importantly Chelsea wiuld be able to sell tickets to not only those with subscribtions but others as well, they would also be able to sell souvenirs and serve food and beverages to fans.
