Day 5,555, 15:15 Published in USA USA by Hillary Clinton1


Hello, my fellow readers, today for the first time I bring you an interview with the CP of UAE - Desert Turtle. the small country on the desert, this is the first time after so many months i was try to get an answer from UAE CPs that the CP accepted answer me and accept this interview. We will talk about the issues the country faces these days with a small number of active citizens, no large immigration and no need mention the bad economy. The CP had to face a lot of challenges let's see how he handles these days. I hope you guys will like it 🙂




1. Hello to the CP of United Arab Emirates(UAE) - Desert Turtle., thank you so much for agree to make this interview with me, but before we start would you agree to introduce yourself first for those who don't know you?

- Hello to all, first my name is Vladimir Vasiljevic in rl I am from Serbia, region Raska, city Kraljevo. I am 32 years old and this is my second elife. First I was active in 2010-2014 than I had huge break and back 2019.

2. This has been your 5th term as CP, what can you tell us about your terms so far?

- I try to respect as much as I can wishes of UAE players, which is not to difficult because we work as a team, I have their help in every single aspect of game and we work as one.

3. What issues have dealt with as the CP of UAE?

- The biggest problem now is that we are not big as USA for example and cant open wars with everyone who asked us xD When we revive UAE we had second problem because no one want to open TW with us. We was small and week country, we had just 1 XX legend and we started from 0 to make UAE strong enough to have TWs with strong countries and protect UAE from any treat.




5. Tell us about the UAE economy

- What economy? We have 5/5 and 4/5 resources for house and air but we prefer TW than production because we want to grow up more and be strong on battlefield we will think about economy latter.

6. You have experience as a CP and you are also an old citizen, can you tell us about any military operation you have done/command?

- In one period I was SG of Asteria that was after big bans I organised and command with few actions. For me was the best when almost dead Asteria after bans succesful got Croatia with 5 NE, one AS and one RW at the same time. Other thing was that we was too week and cant do anything xD When I was SG USA, Colombia and Moldova was accepted in Asteria and Ukraine too.




7. eUAE population today has only 85 active citizens(according to the country page) do you encourage immigration? This number might bring death to the whole country...

- That is Numbers on country page but actualy we have 25 active players + couple of them who are in two click. We approving CS only to players which we know in Rl or know each other from game long enough to trust them. We have some issue on start because somebodies bots/multies after every congress election spam all congress members and asking for UAE CS. We have situation when one of that bots/multies wrote article about Plato generated bot in UAE and present UAE as multi account state... few days latter that acc was banned because of multiple account

8. Do you remember the first time you were a CP? Tell us about the first time and how much it changes from being a CP today

- Its change a lot. When I was CP first time we have 2-3 TW and we was too week and small, only 1 LXX all others was titans or low legends (max LIII), it was not hard job. But today we have between 15-18 TWs 12-15 active battles per day so we must follow wals and coordinate between fighters. I was afraid when we open TW with USA for example because of their huge dmg, but I was verry suprised how they controle battles, same was with Poland. Now from time to time we have problems with Slovenia or Argentina or Columbia because most time they start battles during ours night when we are most inactive and then we must fixing walls all day to not make mess to others TW partners. Not their guilty they are in different timezone and we understand that

9. What are your plans for next month if you will win the elections?

- Plan is to continue oppening TWs and help all UAE players who have time for game to buy packs and rank up.

10. There are hard wars between coalitions, where does your country stand in this conflict?

- We trying to stay neutral as much as we can. We dont want to be part of alliances wars.

11. What is your policy or agenda on the international stage and what path you will take for the country?

- Our path is to be neutral as much as we can. We dont want to help any side in moves on map and block or making opportunities for attacks to third countries. We are still small country but if someone attack us we will defend our country as much as we can on battlefields. This doesnt mean we will stay farmland forever, moment when we must choose side will come sooner or latter I just hope that moment will be latter




12. Tell us about the military of the UAE

- When we revive UAE we had 1 L XX and 1 L II all others players who come with us was titans, that was December 2021. Today we have 3 original LXX, 1 LXX from Serbia but protector 50 for UAE, and 2 LXX from Serbia who bilding protector for UAE. And 15 players who rank up who came latter in UAE. We also have 2 players from D2 and 2 players from D1 which we help to rank up too. We have TW epics every Tuesday for D1 and D2. And we will stay dedicated to ours goal to have 10+ XX until end of 2023. After (if not before) that if Plato dont turn off servers we will see who will feal our rage

13. Tell us 1 thing you love the most at eRepublik

- What I love most in eRepublik is RL meetings with people which I met here first. This and last year I was at last on 10 small or huge meetings by eRep players from eUAE or eSerbia, last one was few days ago. That is best part of the game!

14. If you could change or add ANYTHING to this game tell us 1 thing you were picked to change/add and why?

- If I must pick 1 thing I pick to change 3 things in game - First is IK must work for air at the same way as for ground. Low div players are disabled in many aspects of game work, voting, be congressman or CP, hitting in air... for all these stuff they gaining xp witch is unfair if they paying 15$ for IK every month. Second thing is air true patriot, because air players cant earn cc from tp if they are not high str players or legends. And 1 thing to remove is fuel defenitly. For example D1 player can earn 308 golds per week in best conditions without hitting in epic battle, there is no chance for them to be concurent to players from higher divisions, thats mean ranking, collecting golds and ebs is much dificult for them than the other players. There is to much space to improve game in better way but admins do nothing (good) since 2013.

15. Before we end, there is any last message to our readers, your friends, and the community that read this interview?

- Stay safe, enjoy the game and enjoy in life with your family and friends!
