The third update, there is another one in the rush

Walk through St. George's Hall and Alexandria Hall, where you will be in charge of reception, and further inside you will be St. Andrew's Hall. The hall was the place where successive tsars were crowned in Moscow and is also a sacred temple of nobility and authority. A very noble blue-gold color is used in the interior of the hall, and there are gilded reliefs of exquisite craftsmanship everywhere from the pillars to the throne. On both sides of the hall, there are also elaborate coats of arms made of colored enamel. In addition to being delicate and elegant, the rest is only to be admired.

Previously, Secretary of State Warren proposed the idea of visiting the St. George Hall, and Yanayev, as the host, naturally met his request and took him to the palace where Ivan the Terrible was rumored to be crowned king. Stepping here, you can feel the rich heritage of Russia for hundreds of years.

Warren stood in front of the throne, symbolizing the coronation of the king, the golden curtain was gently draped, and the gilt depiction of the shining sun on the throne symbolized the Tsar as the sun shrouded Russia.

Of course, in Warren's eyes, this fiery golden sun made him shudder like Yanayev's hands controlling Russia and threatening world peace.

"I guess Mr. Warren asked me to bring you here, not just to see this St. Andrew's Hall." Yanayev stood behind Warren and reminded him that it was best to say it now, "We Slavs have never liked to talk to people in a roundabout way, and if Mr. Warren has something to say that he wants to avoid the eyes and ears of others, he will say it here." ”

"I'm standing here, of course, because I have something to say to President Yanayev." Warren turned his head with a dangerous glint in his eyes, "After all, I'm negotiating with you on behalf of the United States." Of course, you and I both know that the so-called negotiating team is just a formality. In the end, it was us who made the decision. ”

"Even if they discuss the conclusions they came to for a day, so to speak. We can also be able to overthrow them with a single word. The negotiating team then continued their discussions. Isn't it? ”

Yanayev suddenly smiled, he looked at the dome of the hemisphere, the golden decoration on it was clearly visible, "I like your honesty very much, Secretary Warren, now let's discuss the chemical weapons reduction program." ”

"The United Nations treaty provides that each State party shall submit to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) a detailed declaration of chemical weapons and chemical weapons production facilities, including the exact points and quantities, no later than thirty days after the entry into force of the Convention for that State. and provide a general plan for its destruction. ”

Warren asked straight to the point, "I just want to know how much your huge chemical weapons stockpile is President Yanayev?" ”

Warren's answer was a bit confusing, the CIA had already made it clear about the Soviet Union's chemical weapons stockpiles, and those high-altitude reconnaissance planes that flew over Soviet territory in the sixties took many more photos of the Soviet Union's secret chemical weapons production bases than in any other era.

However, the Soviet side is also not a vegetarian, and since they know the flight path of the US high-altitude reconnaissance plane, they can also take countermeasures, that is, blackmail and deliberately exaggerate the number of biological and chemical weapons in the Soviet Union.

Originally, the United States could not find out the whereabouts of those sealed weapons, but when the Soviet side deliberately transferred the warheads in stockpile to other places. Let the American high-altitude reconnaissance plane shoot it. And those gas warheads are nothing more than stockpiles of duplicate carrying. In this way, when the CIA is discussing, it is easy to come up with false data.

To make it a little more realistic. The Soviets also fired surface-to-air missiles at US reconnaissance planes in retaliation for their high-altitude intelligence reconnaissance. In this way, the CIA believed the Soviet number of gas bomb warheads, and the number they came up with was actually half more than the real number.

In the original nuclear arms reduction treaty and the treaty to limit the number of intercontinental missiles, the Soviet Union also used this method to defraud the United States once, so they actually have much more than the Americans imagined.

"It doesn't matter how much we have in stockpiles, what matters is, how much does the American side want us to cut?" Yanayev also asked directly, this is what he is most concerned about.

"Of course, it is prepared to cut to the same level as the United States." Secretary of State Warren pointed this out directly, "The negotiations were a success if the Soviet Union cut the number by two-thirds and the United States by one-third, and the number of chemical weapons we ended up possessing was the same." ”

Yanayev thought in his heart that the old fox had finally shown his feet, and although the Americans were verbally saying that they respected the UN resolutions, in fact they wanted to pull the Soviet Union and themselves to the level of unity.

"And the treaty stipulates that the destruction of our chemical weapons and chemical weapons production facilities must be completed within 10 years. Only in exceptional circumstances can the deadline for the destruction of chemical weapons be extended by up to five years, and chemical weapons production facilities may be converted for peaceful purposes, provided that such facilities are not repurposed for purposes prohibited by the Convention. Yanayev deliberately teased the other party, "It's just reduced to a unified level, which doesn't meet the rules of the United Nations." ”

"But it's us who make the rules in the United Nations, and as long as we want to do what we want, which country can manage it?" Warren's tone clearly revealed the ambition of the two gangsters to unite and dominate the world. Of course, in some incidents that harm others and benefit themselves, the attitude between hooligans and hooligans is the same. Although the convention observes the same provisions of the States parties, there are exceptions to these provisions for the Big Five. Of course, you in the United Nations can disobey the collusion of the interests of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, and it is a big deal that we will change the UN Secretary-General.

"But I'm not going to agree to your request, we refuse to cut the number by two-thirds, and if you think the bottom line of the negotiations is two-thirds, then I'm sorry, I don't think this deal can go ahead." Yanayev told Warren that he was not an idiot, and that if he really wanted to cut the amount by two-thirds, he would definitely tear the paper of the chemical weapons destruction treaty on the table.

"Of course, we won't let you weaken two-thirds of your chemical weapons in exchange for nothing." Warren took a deep breath and said slowly, "On the issue of the four northern islands, the Americans can choose to turn a blind eye. We will stop arms sales to Japan in the near future. And expressed non-interference in the issue of the four northern islands. ”

"Huh?" Yanayev didn't react a little, but then he understood after thinking about it. It is the Cold War era, and the strategic center of the United States is not in East Asia.

"You mean the issue of the island dispute between Japan and us? With all due respect, the Soviet side now has an absolute advantage in the dispute over the islands. ”

"But the Americans can say that they will not involve the Pacific Fleet in the dispute over the four islands, and we are safeguarding Japan's territorial integrity, but this does not mean that we want to extend our jurisdiction to the disputed islands and reefs." The United States is now focusing on the Middle East and Europe, and as long as Japan does not die, the United States does not mind letting the Soviet Union taste the sweetness.

And policy will actually change with the change of decision-making level in the United States, and if you choose to take a step back today, you will change the leader tomorrow, and then you will change it again. Therefore, Warren does not have to worry that the Soviet Union will really launch a sudden attack, and the situation in East Asia is still about the balance of interests. What's more, sacrificing a little of Japan's interests to ensure the military balance between the United States and the Soviet Union, Warren felt that this deal was very cost-effective.

"We are only willing to cut our weapons by half, that's our bottom line. Of course, on the issue of the South Kuril Islands, I also need to get an affirmative answer from you. Yanayev said that he also knew that the Americans were unreliable, so he wanted to get the maximum benefit at the minimum cost.

I really thought that the USSR would maintain a balance on the issue of the South Kuril Islands, today you promised a promise of non-interference, and tomorrow I will build a military base in the Far East on the archipelago.

"Deal." Warren, who also backed down with a trap behind him, reached out, and the Soviet Union's one-half cut target was his ideal amount. He smiled and said to Yanayev, "Happy deal, President Yanayev." But I still have a deal, I don't know what you think? ”

"What deal?" Yanayev asked succinctly.

"About Libya, Gaddafi." (To be continued.) )
