What a relief we have left behind in the 1920s with all that succession of intertwined crises that seemed impossible to resolve! What a relief that we no longer have to think about whether democracy is in danger or live in the permanent uncertainty of whether there will be a reactionary retreat from everything that cost us so much to win!

Just as we were finally aware of the physical limits of the planet and the doughnut economy succeeded capitalism, we were also aware of the limits of our democracies with mass debates that prevented (at last!) cruel authoritarian demagogues who did not believe in the values of democracy from seizing power again. I don't know how we could live with this permanent anguish... . No more gerontocracies, no more idycracies, no more techno-auritarism, no more perpetuation in power. AI is no longer a private business of billionaires who (finally!) were forced to distribute 90% of their fortune, as had already happened in the 50s of the last century. It has put itself only at the service of solving the great problems of the world. What a relief too that money no longer moves the world!

All this was possible because the Constitution of the Land of Ferrajoli was approved and launched in 2030, the Magna Carta that protected all our global problems. The nature of which we are a part and without which we cannot live is especially protected. The Constitution provides a framework for everything to be solved diplomatically. Since its approval, the wars have ended and the genocidal people of the past have been severely judged. Yesterday we celebrated the feast of #Nevermore.

If I have to describe what life is like now, the word that comes out is calm. Without constant threats to our safety and well-being, day-to-day life is placid.

The European Commission, that group of liberal satraps, has at last been replaced by democratically elected leaders, their cowardly behavior in the face of Russia having discredited them and led to a revolt by the nations that refuse to accept the expansion of the Ukraine they have maintained at arm's length, to the detriment of their agricultures, invaded by low-end products. Nations that came only to benefit from subsidies have been ejected, and are content with a free-trade agreement. Great Britain joined the Union as an observer. The bankruptcy of the German system and its coal-based energy finally made it possible to dispense with its tutelage. President Trump died, victim of Musk's coup. China tried again to invade Viet-Nam and took another beating. And I'm 89 years old.

I hope that in 2040 the current EU will become a federal state (EFV) with one army, one leadership, well armed and a major power within NATO. Japan and Australia and South Korea will join NATO. Lithuania will have a standard of living above the EU average. Ukraine will be declared a candidate for the EFV and will participate as an additional force in its defence structure. Lithuanian industry will be dominated by new technology companies and scientific institutions will be able to train qualified personnel for this field. Lithuanian agriculture will become a highly productive sector and will not require compensation from the State. Corruption will be extremely rare and punished severely, just like drug use and distribution. EFV units will be deployed on the territory of Lithuania, i.e. on the EFV border. It will be easy to do business in Lithuania, with well-developed opportunities to export products to third countries other than terrorist countries, including Russia.

In 2050 we will be living in an extreme climate we will go from heat waves to intense cold...there will be floods and earthquakes all over Europe rather better to say all over the world.... all this because we did not do enough in 2025 and in the years to follow... We did not give importance to what nature was telling us and to the signs of suffering it was sending us...we always thought we could wait and instead here we are reckoning with consequences that are now irreparable...every day is a war bulletin, people dying buried in the rubble of earthquakes, tidal waves,frostbite and even "heat"...crops are only being grown in greenhouses because the seasons no longer exist....the seas have risen covering much of some nations surrounded by the sea... It is no longer the world we knew, but we wanted this one....

In 2040, Europe is prosperous thanks to a dynamic and inspiring business environment. It has done away with pseudo-legislation and pointless and unnecessary bureaucracy, while deregulation has created new industries and technologies - and repatriated much production from the Far East. Technological development is faster in Europe than on any other continent - which in turn has made Europe (the EU) an economic powerhouse. The UK, Norway and Switzerland are closely associated with the EU and participate in the free trade zone and military cooperation. The European armies work closely together to form one of the strongest and most deterrent military powers in the world. This has secured the external borders and deterred aggressors from the rest of the world. European military cooperation has secured Ukraine's freedom and isolated Russia, among other things. The same Russia that has stopped its hybrid war against the EU through a consistent policy of retaliation. Europeans are free people living in healthy democracies with great freedom of speech. Religion has again become a private matter - and the veto of the bully is not tolerated. Jews can once again live in Europe's metropolises without police protection and latent threats of violence. Non-integrable migrants from MENAP countries have left or been deported, further increasing prosperity. Europeans are starting to have children again and fertility rates are steadily increasing. We believe in ourselves and we believe in the future again - and it is the freedom of the individual citizen that is at the center of everything.
