Oversee operations? Is their military even capable of force projection beyond a few brigades? I thought I read that their sole aircraft carrier couldn’t make it out of port for more than a few weeks at a time.

The building also boasts restaurants, a hairdresser, three daycare centers, and plenty of green space on the inside. It also has a swimming pool, which will be open to the public and which cost €30 million.
