Unique Opportunity in the 10th TS World Congress - A view

Unique Opportunity in the 10th World Congress - A view



In ten days, the 10th World Congress is scheduled at Rome. Many leaders

from the West will be attending it. In the aftermath of the

International Election and the follow-up cleavage displayed by the
