(2nd Update)

President Arnauquin-Alberto Chissano was lost in thought when he received a phone call from a representative of the Ministry of Defence, and in fact he did think about it at first. Because the boss behind this company is the most ferocious nation in the world, the so-called military contracting company is actually a disguised agent of the Soviet army's forces, but this agent is not a lofty ideal that is red all over the world, but a capitalist practice of supreme interests.

There is no free lunch in the world, and if you want to deal with the president of the Mozambican national independence movement, Chissano, you have to pay a high price, the world's largest reserves of tantalum ore, and more than 6 million tons of titanium minerals that have not yet been fully developed, as well as rich gold mines, are clearly marked in the treaty signed by the government and the company, after the collapse of the independence movement, the Soviet military contracting company has at least five years of mining rights, and the Mozambican government has no right to intervene for five years.

What happens if the government defaults? Chissano did not dare to use Mozambique's national fortunes to play a game with the Soviet Union's powerful military power, which was destined to lose.

But these are not the main points in order to defeat his opponents, and his only concern is whether the so-called military contracting companies will take advantage of the weakness of the Mozambican government to take control of the situation in the country, knowing that this is a mercenary group in the gray area, and they are powerful enough to subvert the regimes of small European countries.

Chisano lit a cigarette and looked out the window at the night with some distraction, the economy of Mozambique had been weakened by years of war, and the independence movement front was gaining momentum with the support of apartheid activists in South Africa and other countries, and if he could not withstand external pressure in the end, the liberation movement government might have to sit down with the independence movement organizations at the negotiating table.

"Damn, this must not be allowed to happen." Chisano pinched out the cigarette butt fiercely, he paced back and forth with the contract in his hand, the foreign aid with the risk of luring the wolf into the house or the end of slowly waiting for death, he had to make a decision tonight!

Chisano took a deep breath, as if he had made a very important decision, and slowly finally picked up the phone, dialed the number, and after a short busy tone, the other party picked up the phone.

"Newsickar, I'm President Chissano, I've already considered that contract, you ......"

The other party was silent, waiting for the president's final decision.

Speaking of this, President Chisano suddenly fell silent, as if the courage he had just gathered disappeared without a trace at this moment, his hands trembled a little, Chisano slowly sat down in a chair, and after careful consideration, said in a somewhat painful voice, "I authorize you to allow you to sign a treaty with the other party." ”

"I have one condition, though." President Chissano temporarily added a bargaining chip, "They must wait until the whole country is really stable before they can get the right to exploit minerals." If the situation does not stabilize, we refuse to pay. ”

"Okay, I'm going to live up to the president's expectations." Holding the microphone, Newsica added in a somewhat weak tone, "What if they repent?" ”

"Don't ask me, I don't know." President Chissano's tone was somewhat weak.

Chemezov was annoyed by Viktor's assertions, and he had no intention of settling a grey deal at the crowded Berlin Arms Fair. But Victor's words blocked him from being able to refute, "Since I am the person in charge of dealing with gray transactions, then how I talk about business and where I talk about business is my business, you just need to choose to answer yes or no." ”

There was no way, Chemezov had to call Moscow to ask if he needed to accept the request for Mozambique, Yanayev did not make a clear statement, but asked them to judge according to the analysis of intelligence experts, if they thought that a war could be quickly pacified, then they would agree to the deal, on the contrary, if they would get into a quagmire, they would refuse.

Yanayev has made it very clear that he asked Chemezov to do what he could, and to give up as soon as he was out of control, which was no longer the generous communist aid of the Khrushchev period in the past, but a careful squeezing of every penny of profits.

After a detailed intelligence analysis, Chemezov concluded that the independence movements were not able to grow because of their strong military base, but that the opposition was often a rabble, and that it was only by having the advantage of numbers and terrain that the Mozambican government forces, which had no main battle tanks or helicopters, were able to defeat the Mozambican government forces, which had no main battle tanks or helicopters.

Chemezov immediately agreed to the deal, and at the same time, according to the instructions of the bosses behind the scenes of the Soviet Presidium, it was necessary to take the Soviet Union's scarce or strategically important mineral resources in their hands.

Hence the harsh conditions for exchanging tantalum, titanium ore and gold ore.

"Why is His Excellency the President so convinced that we will end the civil war in Mozambique in a short time?" Prime Minister Pavlov, who was also one of the insiders of the incident, was a little puzzled by Yanayev's confident attitude.

"Huh? Anyway, it's probably intuition. It was difficult for Yanayev to explain to Pavlov that the independence front had been overwhelmed by the oppression of the independence movement in just one year after the arrival of peacekeepers in Mozambique in 1993, and then sat down at the negotiating table, and in 1994 Mozambique successfully held presidential elections to achieve a smooth transition of power.

"Mozambique is just the first test of the waters that we have opened." Yanayev looked at the world map, picked up a red pen and drew a circle on it, "The resources of the whole of Africa are our coveted targets, of course, I am referring to the scarce mineral resources of the USSR, such as gold reserves, such as minerals of rare metals. The near-rise of South Africa almost led to a change in the world situation, and what we need to do is to disrupt the situation in Africa and take advantage of the opportunity to plunder resources, and the turmoil in resource-rich regions will lead to something that the Western world does not want to see. Anyway, we are an evil empire, and we don't mind having another title of destroyer of world peace. ”

"As for the countries that are as rich in gas and oil as the Soviet Union, that is, those countries in the Middle East. Not only us, but also America's strategic think tanks should take note of this. Yanayev said that the confrontation between Europe and the Middle East conflict can be regarded as an indirect defuse of the political pressure of the Soviet Union in the west. The policy of diverting water from disasters, which is also in line with the laws of history, has also given the southern neighbors of the Asia-Pacific region a new round of development opportunities.

"Let the price of oil rise." Pavlov bit his lip and said, "No one wants to face the reverse oil shock strategy again, and resources and arms will not change for a long time as the Soviet Union goes hand in hand." What we can do is to accelerate economic transformation and reform while maintaining and steadily raising oil prices, and once the unitary economy is hit by the outside world, the results will be fatal. ”

Yanayev's words also indicate that the focus of the Soviet Union will be on the Middle East next, and it is still 1991, and the era of Assad, Arafat and other heroes in the Middle East has not yet ended. What Yanayev has to do is to take advantage of the contradictions on all sides and turn the whole situation into a powder keg waiting to explode at any time.

"Western capitalists, are you ready for a conflicting Middle Eastern world?"
