2023 ended with 84 states. So a year-on-year drop of 3. A drop again for the first time since the Covid shock. The war in Ukraine is to blame. The Russian route has practically disappeared. Everything (what little) from Asia goes through Turkey and then explodes. While everything went from Moscow to Prague and only then did it fall apart.
In recent years there have always been 3 new states. This year 2. Not one in Prague. PRG is completely off. There is no reason to visit her. Not a single luxury car rallye arrived in 2023. This is unprecedented. I can’t write anything good. All I remember is Mongolia.
I don’t want to be in a country where opinions get arrested and fired. And foreign rags flutter.
