We remember russian Successful Campaign in 2016 showed distrust and confusion in front of the president ial election.

Alex let me go to you in nicosia here i mean weve been talking about this now for a few weeks and ive actually changed my mind a number of times in trying to analyze and understand whats going on here obviously the neo liberal order is under threat its being challenged thats very clear but from a number of different trajectories and not always really overlapping.

She told me about their lives growing up with their mom, migrant aunt anne and her dad harr
