Chapter 155: The Ghost of Kosovo

(1st Update)

At a meeting of the UN Security Council, the decision of the NATO military bloc to carry out an economic blockade and military strike on the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina was adopted with three votes in favor and two abstentions. Of course, it is understandable that the southern neighbors of the Soviet Union abstained from voting, because after all, such incidents concerning the territorial integrity of a country should be treated with caution, otherwise it is very likely that some people with ulterior motives will use it as an excuse to interfere in its internal affairs.

However, the Soviet Union's abstention was unexpected by the other three countries, because before that, the Soviet Union had always stressed the need to resolve the contradictions and conflicts between the three nations at the negotiating table, but it shrank at a critical moment, and in the face of NATO's aggressive military strike, it only reluctantly abstained from voting.

Even the Soviet representative at the United Nations, Kozlovich, did not know what was going on at the top of Moscow, he only received a phone call from the Kremlin, emphasizing the need to put on a peaceful settlement of the events in Bosnia and Herzegovina before the vote was held, and when the actual vote came, to everyone's surprise, he abstained from voting.

Adhering to the principle of "we must oppose everything that the Soviet Union supports, and we must resist everything that the Soviet Union shouts", the representatives of the United States, France, and Britain also celebrated a little, and only Kozlovich silently pushed his glasses and stared gloomily at the backs of the representatives of the three countries who were getting farther and farther away.

"Do you really think it's over?" The corners of his mouth curled up, and he looked with some reluctance at the departing delegates one after another, as well as the delegates of the Third Nation who passed by Kozlovich with a somewhat disappointed look, Kozlovich clenched his right hand, a crumpled note in his palm. There is only a short sentence on it. Wait for the command.

And the Serbs of Bosnia and Herzegovina are on their side. Karadzic also felt that something was wrong. Lower-ranking officers reported that the Croats and Muslims on the other side did not seem to know where they had gotten a batch of Chinese-made Kalashnikov rifles, Type 63 107mm rocket launchers, and some Soviet-made AKM rifles. In particular, the blow of the Type 63 rocket artillery on the armed pickup was simply deadly, and the pace of the Serb offensive was greatly slowed down.

Even if Karadzic could have guessed that one of the five permanent members of the United Nations had sold his arms to a rival on the other side, he would never have imagined that China and the Soviet Union had joined forces to sell arms to both sides of the war, except that the Soviet Union had sold and sent Serbian heavy weapons a little more, and the Chinese side had sold light weapons to the Croatian partisans more frequently.

When Karadzic complained to Victor, he simply suggested that he buy more tanks and heavy artillery. And said that there was nothing that the partisans could not solve with a T72 tank. If there is, then two. What the? Don't have a dollar forex anymore? That's simple, your gold savings, your resources can be pledged to us.

Even though he knew that the other party was encouraging him to jump into a fire pit, Karadzic still had no choice but to move forward. If you go forward, you may die, but if you go backwards, you will die. Finally realizing that this was a hoax, Karadzic could no longer break free from the leash that the Soviets were holding around his neck.

In this way, China and the Soviet Union used arms sales to kidnap three ethnic groups on the land of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The Soviet Union said that I would do things such as buying and selling arms, and I would be responsible for the reconstruction of urban facilities after the war, and you would use local minerals as collateral to collect money, and the division of labor and cooperation would drain the blood of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Let him become a pawn in the insertion of the Soviet sphere of influence into the Mediterranean.

When the interests of the Serbs are almost exploited, so is the Bosnian Serbs, who are reckless. Even if the Republic of Serbia supports the great reunification, it will become a debt slave of the Soviet Union, and when the time comes, will the Serbs, who owe China and the Soviet Union two huge sums of money, still want to have the idea of independence?

A strong Serbian empire? Go for your spring and autumn dreams.

On the first night before the UN resolution came into effect, the last half-sold and half-delivered Soviet obsolete arms were delivered to Serbia, including some obsolete Sam-3 missiles and T54 tanks that could fight for another century.

Although the Sam-3 missile has mediocre results and poor performance, it still has a record of shooting down a US F117 stealth fighter in the 1999 Kosovo War. So Yanayev was also sold to the Yugoslav government. He hoped that with his own intervention, everything from the Kosovo War in 1999 to the formal dissolution of Yugoslavia in 2003 would change in his own hands.

So when Yanayev received a questioning call from Milosevic on the phone, he continued to fan the flames, "It's a pity, Chairman Milosevic. We are powerless to block NATO resolutions on UN bodies, and we ask for your understanding of the difficulties of the Soviet Union. As for the arms, I think it was a small reparation from the Soviets to their friends. ”

So far, Yanayev does not want to clash head-on with NATO, and in order to protect a thankless country, he may be jointly dealt with by other countries, which is not a situation that Yanayev wants to see in his back.

"It's not the same President Yanayev that we said at the beginning." Milosevic's voice was obviously a little angry, if Yanayev could see him now, Milosevic was pacing back and forth in the bedroom with an angry face, "You said that you would let the three communities negotiate peace on the issue of Bosnia and Herzegovina, why did you go back on your word at this time?" Now NATO is already planning to carry out air strikes and economic blockades. ”

"You will definitely sit down at the negotiating table to solve this problem, I assure you, Milosevic. But it's not right now, NATO countries don't want you to sit down and talk easily, so we have to let NATO countries see your determination, you know? ”

Milosevic's footsteps stopped, and he recalled what Viktor had hinted at during the previous period, and couldn't help but blurt out, "You mean we ......"

"I don't know anything, Milosevic, that's your decision. I have no right to interfere. Yanayev was the first to interrupt Milosevic's speech before he could say that terrible plan, saying, "But you have to choose the right person, and define this plan as a spontaneous act of Serbian nationalists, not a conspiracy with the government behind it or interference, you know?" Everything had to be done seamlessly. ”

Yanayev only played the role of an instigator of the criminal, and he was not afraid to face NATO's accusations after the incident. The Soviet Union did not take any action, so NATO could not find an excuse to suppress it.

"There's one more issue you need to deal with, Milosevic." Yanayev said, "Do you remember a sentence that was once said? 'Kosovo is the birthplace of the first Serbian kingdom in history, and whoever abandons it will become a sinner for the ages in the eyes of the Serbs'. At present, the national contradictions between the Serbs and the Albanians are becoming more and more acute, and if they are not handled well, they will cause a chain reaction. ”

"What do you mean by bringing this up? President Yanayev. Milosevic mistakenly thought that Yanayev was going to make a fuss about Kosovo.

"Not much, Milosevic. I just don't want to see Kosovo end up next Bosnia and Herzegovina. Yanayev is well aware of how the Albanian Islam used the weapons of the palace to occupy the upper hand of the population, and how they used violence and bloodshed to expel the local Serbian civilians, leading to the complete greening of Kosovo.

Kosovo Albanian Muslims have orchestrated several large-scale bloody clashes, resulting in more than 850 casualties, and Albanian extremists have burned more than 30 medieval Serb churches and 420 Serb homes, forcing large numbers of Serb residents to flee their homes. Since then, the shadow of green cancer has hung over the skies of Kosovo.

"The best way is to completely expel this group of people from the land, to break them apart, as Stalin did in those days, and to break them up so that they cannot be reunited. Of course, if you don't want to get your hands dirty, I can put an international armed group at your service, as long as you can afford to pay for their operations. ”

"War against the Albanians?" Milosevic said hesitantly, now his eyes are focused on the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and he doesn't have much energy to pay attention to Kosovo's affairs.

"Instead of declaring war, we just need to keep the Albanians of Kosovo in the shadow of death all day long. They will be forced to compromise and submit, just as the religious extremists did to your people. ”

Imagine an armed force that is not under the jurisdiction of the Government and who professes to be loyal to the Serb community is active on Kosovo soil, using the extreme means of bombing Albanians' places to panic the Albanians, and then the Albanians begin to live in fear or withdraw from Kosovo.

Once the mass base is lost, there is no soil for the armed insurgency in Albania to survive. The best way to cut off the population is through harassment and attacks, but this practice, which will be condemned by the international community, cannot be left to the government forces themselves, but must be secretly propped up by proxies.

Political correctness and the aura of the Virgin? Yanayev never thought that this kind of thing could be eaten, not to mention that Yanayev's methods were nothing compared to the despicability of the CIA.

Seeing that Milosevic was still a little uneasy, Yanayev continued to smile and enlighten him, "The other party is just a military mercenary group, which does not have much impact on the overall situation in Serbia, and I can assure you of the loyalty of this army." While violence is not the best way to resolve disputes, it is definitely the most straightforward. (To be continued.) )
