[seedig] Politics - off topic

Sat Apr 17 11:56:32 CEST 2021

Hi Narine,

I've been a part of the editorial team of the SEESummary for quite a while
until I couldn't make time for it due to other obligations but I can say it
was a great experience to report from my own country and the entire region.
Why don't you consider being part of the editorial team and contribute to
the diversity of the reporting and team?

Have a great weekend,
Sonia
