Unless my Googling is failing me, as of the moment the contract is expired. They’re purportedly working on a new one, the results of which remain to be seen.

i've posted about it 3 days ago, when sources were 3 crank sites. The contract doesn't have expiration date that i can find. 50 years has passed, that much is true, but now its allegedly ended (??). Where on earth they got idea the contract was for 50 years to a day, i have no idea.

Folks, a lot of people are saying.

Yeah I’m not finding a copy of said contract either on a little bit of digging, nor any direct quotes from officials.
