I want the American audience to understand that.
There are certain things that we really cannot say
So, you know, that is very different.
There is no First Amendment here, and we definitely do not have a Second Amendment to support it.
So that makes our situation, you know, considerably different, especially for political commentators, journalists.
It is really more challenging, let's say, especially when you have a family that you want to protect as well.
Not long.
The European Union is working on their digital euro, has been for a while, and I think they're planning to roll it out this year, actually, or maybe beginning of 2027.
So once that hits, same story, of course, they say that it's all voluntary, that you don't have to use it, but it's just a matter of time until they do.
You know, we see through the stories.
But yes, that is, of course, going to be the final instrument that they can use to control the entire population.
But as I said, they're already freezing the bank accounts of people who they deem to be benefiting Russia, right?

giving their opinion, journalists who are writing about their opinions concerning the conflict.

You know, I think we need to have all eyes on Germany.
I think what is going to happen there with the elections, whether AFD is going to end up becoming the biggest party, that is going to make a huge difference in terms of our future.
When we're talking revolution or uproar, you know, I can't even really talk about revolution because before I know it, you would have a police officer standing in front of your door saying that you're inciting that.
So, you know, I'm not, for the record.
I really don't know whether that is, whether we're there yet.
