Soviet Godfather - v5 Chapter 286
Sergei hoped that the Soviet Union would participate in the mediation of the Yugoslav Civil War, instead of allowing the European Community and the United States to extend their tentacles to the Balkans. You must know that the civil war in the Yugoslavia continued until after 2000. At that time, years of war caused countless deaths and injuries, and the hatred among the various ethnic groups in Yugoslavia could not be reconciled at all. The Serbs, as the main ethnic group, have forged blood feuds with the Croats, Slovenes, Albanians in Kosovo, and Mu in Bosnia. Milosevic was finally sent to the International Court of Justice by the multinational forces headed by the United States for crimes against humanity, and eventually died of illness in prison.
But in 1991, the Yugoslav Civil War just broke out, and it was only concentrated in Slovenia, Croatia, and the Autonomous Province of Kosovo. The opportunity to resolve the civil war in Yugoslavia by peaceful means still exists. Sergei Sha does not want American forces to intervene in the unified market of Eastern Europe, and the entry of Yugoslavia will allow the unified market to obtain the vital right to sea in the Mediterranean.
At the United Nations, the United States once again launched a proposal to send troops to interfere in the civil war in Naslavia. This is because there is a precedent for successfully mediating the Kuwait crisis last time, and Yugoslavia is once again a socialist country. Therefore, the Soviet Union’s attitude on Yugoslavia is very important.
Sergey Sha once again persuaded Gorbachev to take the initiative to intervene in the Yugoslav crisis. At the United Nations, the attempt by the United States-led NATO group to directly interfere with Yugoslavia was once again rejected by the Soviet Union. But this time, the United States no longer intended to give the Soviet Union a good face, and they immediately cancelled the massive aid plan that Bush and Gorbachev had agreed upon. The differences between the United States and the Soviet Union, which were originally due to the Kuwait issue, have now become more serious.
Just when Yazov and Kryuchkov were planning to get rid of Selesha, Selesha left the Soviet Union again and flew to Sarajevo to meet with Yugoslav leader Milosevic. And what followed Sergei Sha’s back and forth was the Yugoslav Human Rights Observer Mission sent by the United Nations. Obviously, the United States intends to observe the Serbs’ military operations in Croatia and Slovenia under a microscope, once civilian deaths or accidental injuries occur. The United States has an excuse to raise troops again. At this moment, Milosevic knew that Selesha’s arrival represented the only other voice in the world who dared to compete with the United States. On the other hand, the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia are now facing almost the same predicament. But Gorbachev chose to compromise, while Milosevic chose to suppress it by force.
As soon as the cabin door of the Selesha plane opened, Selesha quickly walked down the spiral staircase. Milosevic walked up and hugged Selesha warmly, although Selesha and Milose It was the first time that Vicki met, but the common interest in the interests made Milosevic and Selesha obviously more able to talk. At the welcome dinner that evening, Milosevic spoke highly of the friendship between the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia, claiming that Selesha’s arrival opened a new chapter in the friendship between Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union. These scenes are obviously for Western countries. Although the Soviet Union is now declining, it still has to show the confidence of a superpower when it is time to be tough.
The day after the banquet ended, Sergei finally found the opportunity to have a personal interview with Milosevic. When Selesha spoke, Milosevic realized that he was completely wrong.
“What? You Soviet suggested that we abandon Croatia and Slovenia? How dare you say it? Did you Soviets solve your own problems in the same way?”
“Chairman Milosevic, as one of the few countries in the world that still adheres to socialism. Our situation is almost the same. The main ethnic group in the Soviet Union is the Russian ethnicity, just as the main ethnic group in your country is the Serbian ethnicity. We have old The economic system of China is completely in crisis, facing the impact of the aggressive commodity economy of the West. Our economic system makes the people miserable. And the economic downturn is precisely the reason for the intensification of ethnic contradictions. For the ethnic minorities in China, If you help them too much, it will not only cause dissatisfaction with the main ethnic group. If you do not solve the problem fundamentally, ethnic minorities will still not show a grateful attitude towards your concessions. But if you blindly favor the main ethnic group, The ethnic minorities will feel that you are depriving them of their citizenship. As a government, a bowl of water will be scolded, and tilting to any side will cause more dissatisfaction. With only so many cakes, no matter how you divide this. Some people will be dissatisfied with a piece of cake.”
Sergeysha’s remarks can be regarded as saying that Milosevic has lost his mind. In the past Tito era, the Serbs made many concessions for the Yugoslav minorities. For example, the priority of joining the party, the priority of work, the priority of promotion, and the priority of education. But when Yugoslavia faced the impact of the drastic changes in Eastern Europe~www.mtlnovel.com~, these preferential policies in the past did not allow the participating republics and Yugoslavia to stand together. Selesha at least one thing made Milosevic very agree, there are so many cakes now. It is impossible for everyone to be satisfied. It is better to give these cakes to those Serbs who have always stood with Yugoslavia.
“Mr. Chairman, no matter what, the human rights observation missions in the West should not be underestimated. Without the support of the United States and the European Community, Slovenia and Croatia would never dare to demand independence from a clear-cut stand. Therefore, I suggest you better withdraw your troops first. The first priority is to stabilize one’s basics. IMHO, Bosnia and Sehergovina, Macedonia, and Kosovo are all in danger of breaking out of independence. It’s better to sit at the negotiating table with Slovenia and Croatia, and everyone should do it first. A communication…”
Milosevic looked at Sergei with a serious face. Don’t know how to answer. To put it bluntly, Milosevic actually did not want Serbia to exchange fire with Slovenia and Croatia. Slovenia and Croatia were originally the wealthy provinces of Yugoslavia. Once a war breaks out, it will definitely be a fatal blow to the economy of Yugoslavia. All the contradictions actually stem from the poor economic situation of Yugoslavia. A large number of unemployed young people have nothing to do and become enthusiastic about street politics. It seems that all economic problems are caused by politics. But they didn’t even think about why Yugoslavia was able to set a record of annual average gdp69 in the era of higher pressure in Tito, and maintained a rapid growth for ten consecutive years. Politics is just an excuse for some people to encourage ignorant young people to take to the streets to make trouble. Economic problems, in the final analysis, need to be adjusted by economic means.
