its some bs, the deal has not been ended and why on earth its suddenly 80 years
Unless my Googling is failing me, as of the moment the contract is expired. They’re purportedly working on a new one, the results of which remain to be seen.
i've posted about it 3 days ago, when sources were 3 crank sites. The contract doesn't have expiration date that i can find. 50 years has passed, that much is true, but now its allegedly ended (??). Where on earth they got idea the contract was for 50 years to a day, i have no idea.
Folks, a lot of people are saying.
Yeah I’m not finding a copy of said contract either on a little bit of digging, nor any direct quotes from officials.
The only previous thing I saw was a scammy financial, WSB youtuber who hit top views 3 days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yolCkHT1S_o
