Watch for: The title mentions December 31 without a year, while the detailed text explicitly sets the expiration to December 31, 2026.
Read the full assessment
The title mentions December 31 without a year, while the detailed text explicitly sets the expiration to December 31, 2026. A key rule clause triggers immediate resolution upon a mere announcement of resignation or removal, even if the departure takes effect after the deadline or is subsequently rescinded. Determination relies on official administration statements, but allows fallback to a consensus of credible reporting, leaving room for interpretation regarding what qualifies as an official announcement or sufficient media agreement.
