The third more

At the end of the Japanese delegation's visit, Keizo Obuchi asked about the results of the survey team, and he was shocked by the response. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 To paraphrase the politically incorrect phrase of a right-wing member, if Japan owned one-third of such an oil field, they would not have lost so badly in World War II. Faced with such a result, Keizo Obuchi was of course moved. He had to return to Tokyo clean and report the good news to Ryutaro Hashimoto.

Before leaving, Obuchi Keizo also specially bid farewell to Yanayev and emphasized the new friendship and cooperation between Japan and the Soviet Union, and no country can resist such a temptation, "General Secretary Yanayev, there will be a special delegation to Moscow next to cooperate with the Soviet side. I think this cooperation is unprecedented, and we hope that Japan will invest more money in oil development projects. ”

Yanayev was not surprised by Keizo Obuchi's promise, the cunning of the Japanese had already been imprinted in his impression, so Yanayev was very cautious about Keizo Obuchi's words. After all, Yanayev still remembers the fact that he wanted to take advantage of the oil crisis to suppress oil prices. Of course, in the face of Japan and the Soviet Union, it is also loved and hated, after all, the position of the Asian economic power is still there, as for the four tigers want to cooperate with the Soviet Union? Side to go.

Another reason is that Yanayev hopes to use the oil cooperation between the Soviet Union and Japan to pull the Chinese side into the water, after all, since 1993, China has been changing from the position of an oil exporter to an oil importer, and will become a major oil consumer in the future. Therefore, now participating in the Yanayev Petroleum Development Club has a deep impact on the strategic development of China's future petroleum strategy.

"In the future, I hope to cooperate more deeply with Japan, rather than just superficially. By the way, if Minister Keizo Obuchi thinks the Il-96 is good, then Aeroflot will also use the Il-96 to send the Soviet delegation back to Tokyo. ”

In order to promote the Il-96, Yanayev can be said to have done everything he could, not only turning the Il-96 into a special plane for the general secretary of the Soviet Union, but also letting delegations from various countries to the Soviet Union take the Il-96. At this time, if Japan does not buy one or two Il-96s back, such a large oil transaction order will be a little difficult to speak.

"Regarding the question of Il-96......" Minister Keizo Obuchi paused and finally made up his mind, "I will report this matter to Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto." ”

"Then there will be the three ministers of Lao Xiaoyuan and Hui."

In the face of the future Japanese prime minister, Yanayev did not dare to be too harsh on the other side. Anyway, there is still a chance to cooperate in the future, as long as Japan

"One more thing, Minister Keizo Obuchi, if the Japanese government encounters economic difficulties in the future, the Soviet Union is willing to provide paid assistance. Please also ask Minister Keizo Obuchi in the future to remember my words. Yanayev left with a word of unknown meaning, leaving Keizo Obuchi in confusion standing in place, not knowing why.

What you won't understand now, you will understand one day in the future. Yanayev has even seen how future Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi would be helpless in the face of the 1998 Asia-Pacific financial crisis. After all, he was trapped by the turbulent political situation in the transition period, died of illness, and became a cross-century prime minister with unfulfilled ambitions.

Yanayev silently laid another dark line on Japan's body, and this dark line will gradually become clear with the coming to power of Keizo Obuchi.

Yanayev was busy, and even after the groundbreaking ceremony for the Kara oil drilling-well-platform, he needed to return to the Kremlin to deal with a whole host of problems. Floating in the icy waters of the Arctic Circle, Yanayev was perfectly prepared to keep warm, and he didn't want to be like Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev who would freeze and hang up after a winter military parade.

However, having just recovered from the joy of oil field development, Yanayev had to face a terrible strategic situation. The deployment of anti-missile systems has entered a critical juncture, and in addition to Turkey's half-pushed-and-half-done attitude, both Bulgaria and Romania are in a stalemate with the United States, because the high price of anti-missile systems has discouraged Bulgaria and Romania. Although the United States stressed that it was willing to bear half of the cost, they were still unwilling to agree, and the cost was still too high.

And since the start of the Soviet gas pipeline transportation and oil extraction projects, the attitude of Romania and Bulgaria has become somewhat ambiguous. And as long as Syria deters Saudi Arabia's attempts to build a pipeline to Europe through the Middle East, the Soviet Union can use gas and oil to threaten Eastern Europe with impunity.

As for the anti-missile project, as long as we observe the offensive and defensive game between the United States and the Soviet Union around missiles, we can see that at present the United States is mainly building a multi-level defense system, that is, the defense of Europe and the United States.

The United States is stepping up preparations in Poland and the Czech Republic to build a detection system for the Soviet Union, and is using long-range radar to give early warning and continuous warning of Russia's missile launch activities.

Yanayev expects that the United States will deploy many interceptor weapons in the vicinity of the Soviet Union in the future, such as using the Patriot missiles that will soon enter service to form a relatively complete terminal defense capability; In the future, sea-based Aegis ships responsible for mid-course interception will also be stationed in Spain; It is not even ruled out that the THAAD system, which is being developed and tested, will enter Europe in the future.

In the continental United States, defense systems will become more abundant, including terminal defense, land-based mid-course, THAAD and sea-based terminal defense. If the defense network of these two large regions is formed, then the Soviet Union's strategic attack on the US mainland will have to go through multiple levels of penetration, and this is also the core principle that prompted the Soviet Union to take "attacking and then attacking" as the core principle of Russia's strategic strike. This will also set off a new round of contest between the United States and the Soviet Union over missile attack and defense.

That is to say, once a perfect anti-missile interception system is established, the strategic space of the Soviet Union will be further compressed.

Yanayev looked at the dazzling materials and said with some emotion, "The multi-layer anti-missile interception system is really a chess game that cannot be solved so far." ”

Even Yanayev came up with the idea of a war to settle everything, but the anti-missile system is destined to be a long battle, and as long as the Soviet Union does not fall, then Yanayev has a chance to turn the tables in the future.

Turkey is now running out of hope, so Yanayev can only try to find a breakthrough from Romania and Bulgaria. (To be continued.) )
