I thought Italy wanted out of there, or only after a deal is made?

What are you saying?

Btw, this is a very bad accord to Italy and it's a Netherlands victory. Sadly some states care only about their interests.

Since this is also a sports forum: what are governments in your countries doing, if anything of course, to help the sports community? Not much here yet, but some of the top flight football teams have had the balls to pretty much demand money from the government to prevent them from going bankrupt  

 

Obviously I hope the government won't hand out money to football clubs, especially the bigger ones, but it might be different especially for smaller sports and teams.

Lol there is no money here, little companies are dying and unemployment and poverty will spike big time. Imagine what will happen in sports. For small clubs there are subsidies in some communities and I guess some athletes can get the emergency assistance income (around 150 dollars).

Because people see this as 'country A doesn't want to help country B', which is nonsense. Thing is, with the kind of deal people have been talking about, all countries would also have to sort of agree to pay/help with the debts (non-coronavirus related) of countries like Italy, of whom everyone knows they will get into more and more debts again and again. It is understandable it's not a simple 'yes, ok' they get as answer, even though I of course do think there should be a way to help each other.

 

If only it was so simple as people think it is.

Turkmenistan banned the use of word "coronavirus", because that will help.

Meanwhile the president visited the horse complex for the third time in a few weeks, which was apparently newsworthy

I don't know, but this seems a little photoshopped to me
