"My fellow Russians, after careful consideration and consultation with our scientists and experts, I have decided to extend the duration of the year 2022 indefinitely," Putin announced in a statement released to the press. "This decision was not made lightly, but it is necessary in order to address certain challenges and opportunities that we are facing as a nation."
The decision to extend the duration of the year has caused shockwaves around the world, as people struggle to understand the implications of such a move. Many have speculated that Putin's decision is related to the ongoing war, which has caused widespread disruption and uncertainty.
