today we can to say that in england there is a very serious situation for richie sunak., by the way, summit, so to speak, a short summit in normandy, i was forced to leave my colleagues and allies in their place. mirona will urgently go to london, because the electoral situation there is also very unfavorable for him, this suggests that european voters are dissatisfied with today’s aggressive, so to speak, rhetoric, and not only the rhetoric, and the practice of the european elites, and this affects their careers , specific prospects for election or re-election. another unfriendly step by its western neighbor: poland is restoring and expanding the buffer zone on the territory bordering belarus. the length of the special regime will be several tens of kilometers. the depth of the exclusion zone will reach 2 km in 27 places in the gaynovsky and blastock districts. prime minister tusk announced the approval of the relevant resolution. at the same time , a meeting of the country's national security council was convened in warsaw due to the shooting of polish soldiers at... a

richie sunak who you didn't mention but i'm sure you were thinking about, has a snap election coming out, and it could be one of the largest majorities for labor in a long time, and i think it does relate to a considerable extent to the whole growth picture. we've grown over 9% in total, our economy, since the pandemic started. canada's at 5-something, and everybody else is at 1%, 2%, 3%, and the elections last weekend shouldn't have been a total surprise in the sense that europe is really, really struggling economically, including and indeed especially germany which has, of course, been the powerhouse of europe for so many decades, but between the impact of the ukraine war and the fact that germany is a major exporter of china and now all of that is now under a lot of pressure, it's a really, really difficult time for germany. europe as a whole, as i think a mix of the effect of the war, which is something, but not the only thing, but frankly simply having economies that have just not performed well over a long period of time. they don't have the flexibility of our economy. they don
