"Things have turned out otherwise" or "the internation political situation has not necessarily turned in the populists’s favor"

One problem I can see is that this can promote cooperation between the crime organizations in the two countries. You send Swedish criminals to Estonia on an accidental cultural exchange program with Estonian criminals. That's gotta create some issues once they are let out again.

Best argument I've heard is that the Soviets never denied it happened. Same with the nazis and the Holocaust.

Had this happen to me in Berlin. Customer rep just looked at her watch and left. Granted, it was at an airport very late in the evening, so circumstances were unusually shit, but still. I was amazed.

A console lives and dies by its exclusives. While it's sensible for Microsoft to stop releasing on Steam, Windows gamers can still just buy MS exclusives on PC without having to buy an Xbox. If Xbox wants to succeed it has to stop releasing on PC at all. That's not politically viable inside Microsoft, and so Xbox as a console business is not viable. Microsoft should kill Xbox or spin it off. This zombie division of a console maker doesn't make sense.
