After the collapse of Russia, caused by its defeat after the failed invasion of Ukraine, EU stepped up their federalization process. No longer dependent on the US, EU economy thrives. Ukraine is stil recovering after the war but has made good progress on their path for EU integration.

Economic Recovery in 2040 By the early 2040s, the world economy had made significant progress thanks to sustainable technologies, innovative industries and artificial intelligence-supported production. The remaining economic challenges at the beginning of the decade, such as inflation and supply chain problems, have been overcome through digitalisation, the uptake of green energy sources and new financial models. One of the most significant changes was the full expansion of renewable energies. Most countries use 100% sustainable energy, reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Energy prices have stabilised, contributing to industrial and technological development. In addition to solar and wind power, fusion power has also become available, allowing for cheap and unlimited energy production. In the labour market, automation has not taken jobs, but created new ones. By integrating AI and robotics, production has become more efficient, while people can be more creative and perform tasks with higher added value. With the introduction of a basic income, poverty has been eradicated and societies have become more equal. Global trade has also improved: Blockchain technology has made the movement of goods faster and more transparent, reducing the possibility of fraud and corruption. In food production, the spread of vertical farms and artificial meat has ensured the sustainable supply of the planet's growing population.

I would like a definitive cure to be found for incurable diseases such as cancer and various neurological diseases, and I would also like this huge inequality between rich and poor not to exist, to have equal work opportunities for all, and for people in poor countries not to die of malnutrition.

Meanwhile everything has evolved, we have digitized, we have invented useful things to live better, prosperous and easier. I would like people to understand each other, to talk to each other, they will not despair.....I hope that this technology will not destroy us and in the future we will realize that it is meant to help us not to destroy us. Peace, understanding, love for one another, that's the future.
