state of affairs

This state of affairs would not last more than a few months.

This state of affairs will change, with effect from now.

My question then: what is the true state of affairs?

The state of affairs in general seemed to him quite wrong.

It is, then, a very serious state of affairs we are talking about.

That is a state of affairs we must do something about.

We need to act together on this state of affairs.

There is no reason why such a state of affairs should continue.

I think that is a very poor state of affairs.

Can you tell us what the state of affairs is?
