Your country managed to deal with the crisis in a way better than many of the analysts anticipated.
Hah, you can find "analysts" predicting all sorts of thing but you had to be very naive to believe those fearmongers "predicting" that EU would freeze to death.

Let's be frank, Europe was helped not by analysts' mistakes, but by this abnormally warm winter. There has never been a frost so far this winter.
Let's be frank, in all sincerity, do you really believe that Western European families were sitting at home or at work with winter coats in a cold environment and because of the warm winter, they managed to escape? Do you really believe that? Don't you want to just visit Europe for a while to see reality yourself?

God for you. For people like me, who are residing in third world nations, the main concern is to keep the inflation rates stable. A few years back, annual inflation rate was 3% to 4%. Now it has risen to around 6%, and the ongoing war has a made its impact.
EU is affected as well, but unfortunately its always the poorer parts of the world that are more affected in times of a global economic crisis. Exactly for that reason I couldn't wrap my head around why people from Pakistan are worrying about how an average German who has God knows how much more money than he will pay his gas bill (and even spread obvious lies while doing so) instead focusing on themselves.
I'll be honest, people inside the country don't worry as much as people outside the country. Maybe that's why we manage to keep so high standards of living because everyone around the world is so worried when something slightly bad happens there.
It's funny how people from least developed countries and developing countries don't give a F to inside politics, to their own quality of life, to their salary, etc but finds a time to express their emotions around developed and rich Western European countries.
I think these people are very envious. We have the life they want but can't achieve and they get happy when they see if something bad happens to us. They want to see us on their level and watch us from above. But it's impossible even in their best dreams.
