Chapter 905: The Final Chapter (1)
The United States has tried to sternly warn countries that have betrayed themselves not to challenge Americans' patience by joking with their own country's future. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoThey will eradicate all the betrayers by the most political or military means, without mercy.
Sniffing out and eradicating traitors is what the United States has always been determined to do, and those who betray in collusion with the Soviet Union will surely be punished by the free world. When the blade and butcher's knife are on their necks, it is up to them to choose whether they will give in and live or fight valiantly.
The fate of Poland was decided from the moment greed overwhelmed reason. They were destined to end in tragedy on the battlefields of Romania, where invincible legions were sweeping the country and the fall of Lukzh was only a matter of time. The dying Polish army will go to defeat with the last tragedy.
The Soviets may not have made sense of Kovasinevsky, because the fate of the other side was already tied to that of Romania. But there is still a chance for other countries to take it. For example, Hungarian President Arbad and Czech President Havel Havel.
Both the Soviet ambassador to Hungary and the Czech ambassador lobbied at the same time to persuade both sides to change their minds on the Romanian issue.
Objectively speaking, the Soviet Union did not have much affection for Hungary as a country. Without Hungary's push, the Soviet Union's painstakingly managed Eastern European bloc would not have collapsed so quickly.
On 10 September 1989, Hungary announced the termination of the 1969 agreement signed with the East German government on the use of the situation in East Germany to flee Hungary to the West. In this way, the East Germans blew up the pot, and they could sacrifice everything for the sake of freedom. After Hungary opened its borders with Austria, more than 500,000 East Germans passed through Hungary and then into the West after just two days. This move by Hungary led directly to the collapse of the East German government, which in turn had a political impact on Czechoslovakia. After the Velvet Revolution in Czechoslovakia, there was political turmoil in Bulgaria and Romania. Yugoslavia and Albania, which had been marginalized by the eight countries of Eastern Europe, could not escape the fate of color revolutions, and so far none of the eight allies of the Soviet Union in Central and Eastern Europe were spared from the original path. And the Soviet Union was no longer able to take care of this at this time, because the turmoil in the Soviet Union had also begun.
This big hole dug directly led to the change of the political system in Eastern Europe, and at the same time indirectly led to the beginning of the ill-fated fate of Eastern European countries.
I don't know if the people who believed in that set of values at that time regret it now.
As counsellor of the Soviet embassy in Hungary, Leonid naturally had a heavy burden on his shoulders, and he needed to convince the current Hungarian president, Arbad, to be a man who was hostile to communist values.
It was not destined to be an easy negotiation, and from the moment the Counsellor entered the room, they had deep prejudices.
"The Soviets wanted Hungary to stop on the Romanian issue, and continuing to unrest was not the best way to solve the problem. All sides want the situation in Europe to remain stable and not to be drawn into a dangerous war. β
"But this is Hungary's own problem, and it does not involve the vital interests of the Soviet side. Or is Moscow trying to interfere in our internal affairs by testing pressure from the embassy? β
Albad's answer was somewhat provocative, although he did not want the United States to deceive, but for the sake of the common Slavic enemy, he could practice with the United States to contain the re-expansion of the other party's power.
Leonid was not angry, he himself came with a secret, through which he hoped to convince the other party. He took out a document from the official document placed next to him and placed it in front of the other party, making a gesture of please.
Leonid observed Arbad's reaction and said, "If, after reading this document, President Arbad still insists on carrying out the air strikes, then we have nothing to say." Because the content of this document is enough to change the course of the situation in the whole country. β
Arbad's face changed as he opened the file in disbelief, his expression changing as his eyes swept over the first line. After reading the first page of the document, he quickly raised his head and asked, "Is the content of this document true?" Why did Krenz release such a secret document? Damn, should I trust the United States or you now. β
Arbad had fallen into the trap of the Soviet Union from the time he saw the documents.
Leonid said lightly, "This is a secret agreement between the Soviet Union and Germany, and even the president of the United States does not know about it." Didn't they promise that if they intervened in the war to bomb Romania, they would help you join the EU game? β
His question went unanswered. Leonid noted several other interesting points.
Of course, you can also think that this document is fake, but you can consult the German ambassador to Hungary, who may know the inside story of this document. When this is done, we can move on to the rest of the story. β
Arbad took a deep breath, pondering the feasibility of the plan.
The Americans created a wonderful scam for themselves, and now the USSR has come up with another deal.
No matter how disgusted Albad was with communism, he still had to give in to his interests. Politicians are only interested in profit, and the dispute between capital and communism is naΓ―ve. As long as it is profitable, they can turn from enemies into friends.
"And Hungary is not the only country invited, but there is only one open door to the EU. In other words, the final decision on who will be able to enter the EU is completely in the hands of the Germans. β
Leonid was in no hurry, because the situation was completely in his favor. It would be wise to use the EU to blackmail the other side into withdrawing from the war.
"As long as you are willing to withdraw from the bombing of Romania, all the above conditions will be carried out as promised. If we don't want to, we can only express the Soviet protest in a way that is common to the whole world. β
"War."
Leonid's tone was still flat, but every word that came out of his mouth was oppressive and murderous. So that Arbad could not refute.
"Otherwise, all fighters entering Romania will be heard from next, just as the two fighter formations disappeared inexplicably over Romania. All fighter pilots will eventually return to China as martyrs for burial. β
The Soviet Union has always been the same, and Yanayev has always been cruel in some respects, killing them all, and simply and neatly. He is forbearing, but it doesn't mean that he won't make a move, and concessions conditional on the EU are already the bottom line.
Leonid already had an air of decisiveness between his gestures, and this was not a consultation with Hungary, but a final warning. Warn the other side not to do something wrong when the Soviet Union loses patience.
"I assure you, President Arbad. Everything that the USSR says now, is true. This is not aimed at anyone, we have enough capacity to create an absolute no-fly zone in Romanian airspace. β
"The Soviet Union has the strength and the foundation."
"Do you have the courage to fight to the death?"
Arbad scoffed, "The Soviet Union is still acting so simply and crudely, didn't your general secretary teach you not to set up enemies all over the world?" It is necessary to blackmail the countries of Eastern Europe to beware of becoming the target of the Western world's fire. β
"It's hard for me to argue anything with you, because it's hard to convince someone with one mouth." Leonid disdainfully ridiculed his pedantry and prejudices.
"Everyone thinks they are right, which is why the Western world calls Mousslin a terrorist, and they call themselves freedom fighters. Fundamentalists think they are right, capitalists think they are right, and communists are certainly right when they preach themselves. So no one can persuade anyone or anything by reasoning. Look at all of you decent rotten people who are tirelessly teaching others in Parliament or Congress, and at least in public, unwilling to admit a fact. β
"Doctrine does not determine who is right, strength determines who is right. Now the Soviet Union has the power to deter Europe, so I'm right. β
Simple, brutal but irrefutable logic, Albad's words were choked for a while.
He blushed and retorted, "You have no future, Yanayev is just delaying the death sentence of socialism." β
Arbad was annoyed by the strong arguments and tried to refute them, but Leonid knocked him back into the circle with a word.
"Russia."
"This is the cradle of Slavic civilization and the home of countless tsars, lords, tyrants and dictators as you call them. The year 1991 was the ultimate example of the administrative failure of the Gorbachev regime, which naively believed that if they abandoned their system, the Western world would be willing to lend a hand and build them into a rich and powerful capitalist state. However, after the collapse of Eastern Europe, the promised leaders of the West left the countries of the former socialist camp to fend for themselves. Let's not forget, it was the USSR that took over the mess, pulled out the parasites that had attached to the country, and reinvented them. β
"What you see in Romania, what you see in Germany, is not just synonymous with war and coups, it also represents prosperity and the future."
The ambassador-counsellor paused and said slowly, "An egalitarian country where the evil capitalists dare not do it." β
Arbad was already speechless by the rebuttal, and finally Leonid raised the "conditions" in his hand, smiled and asked, "The USSR has the opportunity to let Hungary join the Western world, this is our strength." β
ps: I strongly recommend two books, I strongly recommend it, and it is not the same as the friendly recommendation: "Sykedu", which may become a new foreign historical novel that has risen recently, with a tone similar to a translation, and a heartfelt chapter push, because I don't know the author. The other is "1885 British Tycoon" by my friend Mo Poppy, but I don't know if you can set Marie Curie as the heroine.
By the way, I kindly recommend "I Build a City in the Air", uh...... I was the book that was pushed around the neck by the author's knife holder. ps doesn't count money. (To be continued.) )
