I wonder if there were conditions Sweden agreed on for this to happen.

Just this morning Erdogan did the ridiculous demand that Turkey’s EU-membership negotiations should be picked up again or else they won’t agree on Sweden joining the NATO.

Why don’t they just threaten to boot Turkey out of NATO and give Sweden their spot? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Yep, Sweden harbours a large number of Kurdish refugees fleeing Turkey, I bet the Swedish government made some concessions that would screw the Kurds over. I would say it is extradition of people suspected to be linked to the PKK or something along those lines.

haven’t posted on this forum in so long cos im not playing hitman as much :sob:

didn’t know what thread to put this in but is there any news or rumors for the next hitman game??

No. No no no no no. This is where I draw the damned line. That bastard constantly wears a suit with red ties. That bastard thinks he’s a perfect human specimen better than regular people and that he’s never failed or made a mistake. But I refuse to tolerate a world where he’s only two letters off from invoking the name of our favorite assassin.

Agenda 47 sounds like that one Hearts of Iron 4 mod leader that exists just to be a giant meme combined with the one leader who exists just to create a dystopic failstate.

“We can’t do anything about Global Warming because China causes the most emissions and they don’t do any-”

Each year from 2020 to 2022, China installed about 140GW of new renewable electricity capacity, more than the US, the EU, and India put together. (A gigawatt is enough to power 750,000 homes.)

It’s kind of weird since this is what juries do anyway - the only difference is for criminal matters they are generally required to consider requisite “mental element” (ie intention)

So like, in this case it’s probably the opposite of going well for him because the mental element can be super, super hard for the prosecution to prove. Particularly if there’s circumstances that would leave the door open to the “not fit to stand trial” plea.

Honestly, don’t like his chances.

Old news but definitely kinda relevant for a Hitman forum. Clearly the guy failed to take into account the floating white dots over the heads of Albuquerque’s Finest.
