Soviet Godfather - v5 Chapter 270
“The governments of Iraq and Kuwait suddenly announced a ceasefire in Moscow, and Iraq will unconditionally withdraw all Iraqi troops in Kuwait…”
“The Soviet Union announced that it would allow Iraq to use oil to repay its foreign debt of approximately US$30 billion. This debt will be converted into Soviet investment in Iraq’s oil industry…”
“Under the mediation of the Soviet Union, Syria agreed to build an oil pipeline connecting the Mediterranean and the Persian Gulf with Iraq and Kuwait. The Soviet Union will be responsible for the construction contract for the entire project. This time the oil pipeline project will adopt Soviet oil pipeline standards. At the same time, Iraq transferred part of the pipeline rights to Kuwait to compensate Kuwait for foreign debt…”
“Iraq executed several high-ranking military officers who had launched the war to invade Kuwait without authorization, and agreed to compensate Kuwait for the war…”
“Kuwait announced the expulsion of 3 Saudi diplomats and 4 American diplomats…”
“The Bush administration has failed in diplomacy, and the Republicans may lose their majority in the parliament in the midterm elections!”
Just after the United Nations General Assembly, the US-led multinational group submitted to the Security Council a proposal for an armed attack on Iraq, which was rejected by the Soviet Union. Then there was the above-mentioned eye-popping incident. Iraq and Kuwait declared a ceasefire in Moscow under the leadership of the Soviet Union. , Iraq unconditionally withdrew troops and Kuwait restored its territorial sovereignty, and the two countries reconciled. At the same time, the Soviet Union won the exclusive right to build an oil pipeline from Kuwait to Latakia Port in Syria. The Soviet Union became the biggest winner in this Kuwait crisis.
The diplomatic failure of the Bush administration caused his approval rating to drop sharply. At this moment, the Bush administration is about to usher in the midterm elections in the United States. Many Americans feel disappointed because of the Bush administration’s insistence on the issue of sending troops.
Gorbachev was very excited about Selesha’s overwhelming victory in the Middle East. This was a major diplomatic victory for the Soviet Union following the collapse of the socialist camp in Eastern Europe. China’s use of economic means as an opportunity to solve the problem not only allowed Iraq and Kuwait to turn their conflicts into jade, but also allowed the two major allies of the Soviet Union in the Middle East, Syria and Iraq to restore relations. The Soviet Union even turned Iraq’s debt into the Soviet Union’s high-quality oil assets in the Middle East.
But Sergey Shah still has some regrets, that is, Saudi Arabia did not accept the conditions of the Soviet Union, but this has brought a better situation. Kuwait, who originally followed Saudi Arabia loyally, began to estrange from Saudi Arabia and led to the embrace of the Soviet Union. This also made Saudi Arabia’s position in Arab countries begin to waver. This is definitely a good phenomenon for the Soviet Union.
The frustrated President Bush cancelled the meeting with Sergey Sha. Naturally, Sergey Sha did not want to stay in the United States. He flew back to Moscow by plane. Report to the Politburo on work in the United Nations. Everyone can see Sergei’s performance, even those who are not convinced that they can’t do better than Sergei’s. Sergei’s talent in diplomacy was too prominent in this Kuwait issue. Shevardnadze proposed that Sergei be solely responsible for the next 4+2 negotiations on the merger of the two Germanys. Because of Sergei Sha’s performance at the UN General Assembly, people saw a different Soviet Union, no longer the face of chauvinism from the big powers of the past, but instead used a more flexible, mutually beneficial and win-win mentality to deal with international issues. This has caused many countries to begin to change their views on the Soviet Union.
Not long after Sergey returned to Moscow, good news came one after another. Yeltsin was elected chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian Republic with an undisputed high vote, and Gorbachev was also successfully elected the first Soviet president after the reforms. In addition, Bulgaria and Romania announced that they have joined the Eastern European Unified Market to accept the custody of the Eastern European Central Bank. Albania and Yugoslavia became the observer countries of the Eastern European Central Bank. For Albania, Sergey Sha is willing to accept it, but for Yugoslavia, Sergey Sha has reservations, because Yugoslavia’s political situation is unstable and faces the crisis of fragmentation like the Soviet Union. Under this circumstance, accepting Yugoslavia’s plan to enter the unified market of the Eastern European Central Bank would be tantamount to setting fire.
But not all news is good, in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. The Communist Party of the Soviet Union ended in disastrous defeat in the local top elections and lost its ruling power. The winners are the local democratic parties that advocate independence. Because the CPSU had changed its party platform before the elections and no longer imposed the ideology of the CPSU on the entire country, the independence of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania was already inevitable. In addition, the Georgian Communist Party narrowly won the election, and the Communist Party’s seat in the local Supreme Soviet was not dominant in elections in Moldavia and other regions.
Sergey Shah did not invest any money in these republics to improve the local economy~www.mtlnovel.com~ So in which regions the CPSU lost power is something Sergey Shah expected. But now Sergey Sha is not in a hurry. After these countries left the Soviet Union, they faced the same difficulties as Eastern European countries. They both lost support from the Soviet Union and were not accepted by the United States and Western countries. The only road before them in the future is the unified market in Eastern Europe. The countries that the Soviet Union lost will be controlled by the Gorky Group through economic means. The disintegration and non-disintegration is actually just a question of more than one name. Status, the Soviet Union has legally created a legal exit mechanism for the participating countries. Sergei Sha’s only request now is that the CPSU in Russia and Ukraine should not split or lose its ruling power.
Sergey Sha is now Yeltsin’s biggest political ally. As long as Sergey Sha does not oppose Gorbachev, Yeltsin will naturally not. As for the democratic programists that Yakovlev cultivated, Selesha decided to find an opportunity to clean them out of the CPSU.
After the Eastern European Central Bank won Romania and Bulgaria, Sergei had a new plan to combine the rich resources of the Soviet Union with the economy of Eastern Europe. Establish an energy and economic community. This idea is very beneficial to both Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union can obtain a stable energy consumption market, while Eastern Europe can obtain cheap energy, thereby reducing their corporate competition costs. Eastern Europe now enjoys the preferential terms of trade between the United States and Europe. It is not available in the Soviet Union, but the Soviet Union can obtain these preferential treatments indirectly through Eastern European industry.
