The first update

While German Chancellor Kohl was still torn between the social problems caused by refugees and the continued sluggish economy of Germany, the Soviet Union, which had emerged from the shadow of economic difficulties, had begun to show a recovery momentum. Yanayev placed economic exchange and trade in the Asia-Pacific region, where the ideological-morphological antagonism was much weaker than that of Europe, and tried to cooperate with them to re-implement the policy of the new economy. On the surface, the Soviet Union focused on Europe, but in fact it quietly changed its focus, knowing that when Europe could not bargain, Asia, with its rapid economic development, became their preferred partner for cooperation.

Under the slogan that socialism will not keep the lazy in captivity, after a year or two of welfare cuts, the Soviet Union has basically completed the disadvantages of a high welfare society, in order to create a company that can stimulate economic development and provide jobs for the people, the Soviet government encourages the development of factories and companies, and introduces certain government subsidies. With the stimulus and demand for foreign trade, the Soviet Union's foreign transformation economy began to function, and even if there were still traces of the communist period in some areas, it was basically on par with its southern neighbor.

From 1991 to mid-1995, nearly four years and six months of exploration and improvement allowed the Soviet Union to go through the most difficult time, even in the face of various factors such as the division of the member states and political turmoil, Yanayev still stood up and did not let the banner of socialism slowly fall from Red Square.

"If the enemy does not die, the war will not stop." Yanayev said to Surkov, "It's time for them to know what the superiority of the socialist system is." Comrade Surkov. This is a long-term propaganda and public opinion offensive. Even if you are not in the position of Minister of Propaganda after that. I also hope that your heirs will be able to stick with this plan. ”

Yanayev propped his hands on the table, the political affairs of the past few years had made him show symptoms of exhaustion, but he knew very well that he could not fall now, and before he saw Europe bow to the Soviet Union and the former power of Eastern Europe returned to the arms of Moscow, Yanayev was still the helmsman of the huge ship of the Soviet Union.

As long as he is still alive, the USSR will go further on the difficult and bumpy road of revival.

"A long-term public opinion offensive plan? Could it be the previous policy of red-turning Europe? Inciting workers to demonstrate and subvert their country. Or even to carry out internal riots and assassinations in times of instability in the country? These things proved to be ineffective during the Khrushchev and Brezhnev periods, especially after the establishment of the regime, when the Hungarian crisis and the Prague Spring were almost met with a European counterattack. ”

"And now, the former Eastern European countries have become disillusioned with communism, and after Gor-Bachev's bad policies, they no longer believe in our system, and of course the global economic downturn of the past few years has made them skeptical of the liberalism they aspired to."

"So the economy of the Soviets must become strong, and likewise the standard of living of the people must rise. The foreign exchange earned by the Soviet Union every year through the arms trade was not for the corrupt of the bureaucracy, but for the real implementation of the people. In the great construction of socialism, when we have an economy that is even more prosperous than that of the United States. When our actual standard of living truly surpasses that of Americans, that is when the great dream of socialism is realized. ”

"It is true that we have reversed all kinds of mistakes made by the previous two leaders by not engaging in an arms race and focusing on economic development, and we have not lost in the system, but because the heavy burden has crushed the economy, just like all kinds of high expenditures at the beginning, in order to show our superiority, we have wantonly implemented all kinds of high welfare for the people, and in order to achieve the goal of being able to spread the red flag all over the world, we have accelerated the pace of army building, but we have neglected the most basic economic construction. When we look back and find that the fragile substructure supports the crumbling superpolitics, we are digging our own grave, and death does not belong to communism. ”

Death does not belong to communism.

Surkov chewed on this sentence repeatedly, and he vaguely found a foothold in the war of public opinion from Yanayev's remarks. Surkov looked up and saw Yanayev looking at him with an encouraging look, and for a moment, he felt the weight of the mission on his shoulders weigh a little.

"In line with the development of the Soviet Union's economic construction, the theme of propaganda focuses on this point, we want the West, the free world, the war-torn Middle East, and the economically difficult South America to see this, and let the people of the whole world know that poverty does not belong to communism, and we will create a truly great socialist country."

Yanayev still has the flame of idealism burning in his heart, and he has not given up the ultimate ideal because of reality, and he has been exploring the balance between the two systems all these years, relying on the always imperfect system alone cannot guarantee the development of society, Roosevelt's New Deal, Deng Theory, without exception, is a summary of the balance between socialism and capitalism.

Based on the different national positions, Yanayev also perfected the Soviet Union's new economic theory, and after revising some shortcomings in Lenin's new economic policy, such as strengthening the government's supervision and control over the market, ensuring the implementation of various laws, and increasing the implementation of market liberalization, the socialist market economy of the Soviet Union was formed.

"I see." Surkov had already formed a draft, and he knew where to focus on the future propaganda, the booming economy after the crisis of the Soviet Union, and the significant improvement in the standard of living of the people. The foreign propaganda offensive was no longer focused on strong military force, although the Soviet Union's military power remained high.

The red polar bear folded its huge claws, wore a suit and tie, and showed the politeness of the Romanov aristocracy, hiding the knife in its cuff, and smiling at Hanscat, John Bull, and Gallic chicken.

Just as Surkov was about to turn around and leave, Yanayev suddenly stopped him, and Surkov turned around and saw Yanayev smiling at him and said, "Good job, Comrade Surkov." In the future, when we old political-bureau guys retire, the future will be yours. The future of the Soviets depends on you. ”

"I hope that in my lifetime, the people of the Soviet Union can see a strong motherland." (To be continued.) )
