The fire on the Liberland flagship Freedom intended for the settlement of Liberland is the largest misfortune in the short history of this nation. Luckily, no one was injured and the ship was not yet outfitted with expensive technology as planned.
The overall damage is estimated at more than 10 Bitcoins (BTC). The fire aboard the Freedom comes during the time of significant loss of our personal and economic freedoms during the global coronavirus crisis, which is an alarm for all liberty-loving people.
We are deeply grateful to the men and women of Apatin who risked their lives to save the ship. My special thanks goes to the Apatin firemen as well as the divers. We will ensure they are recognized for their brave actions. So far, we do not believe that the fire broke out spontaneously or was lit on purpose. We are awaiting the results of the investigation to confirm the details.
This event will not deter us from making further investments in this region that has become our beloved home or from setting the stage for the proper settlement of Liberland in the coming years. We have started a crowdfunding campaign to restore and upgrade the whole project so that people coming to Apatin and to visit Liberland will have a comfortable place to stay on Liberland property.
