Chen Fang, the commander of Chinese peacekeepers, has not closed his eyes for two days and two nights in the UN peacekeeping camp near the Indonesian border in East Timor.
As a peacekeeping mission assigned by the United Nations, China did not send a purely military peacekeeping force because of the situation in East Timor and its first attempt in international peacekeeping.
In the name of peacekeeping police, a 20 member paramilitary peacekeeping team is stationed. Although the number is small, each of them is an elite selected from each unit. This can be seen from the fact that Chen Fang, who is led by the maritime department, is appointed as the commander of the team by the higher authorities.
The level of this peacekeeping team is quite high.
It can also be seen from this that China attaches great importance to this peacekeeping mission.
Because of this, it is self-evident that this is the main responsibility of the peacekeeping team, that is, in addition to undertaking the peacekeeping tasks entrusted by the United Nations, the main thing is to learn and cultivate their own peacekeeping talents through this peacekeeping practice.
After all, this kind of peacekeeping operation is the first of its kind in China. With the increase of similar tasks in the future, it is necessary to have a special talent pool. After all, as the world's top five hooligans Pooh! As one of the five permanent members, peacekeeping is an unavoidable responsibility.
Because of this, Chen Fang's group is mainly learning, following behind the peacekeeping forces of other countries, watching and listening more.
Over a period of time, it has indeed benefited a lot. The main reason for this is that East Timor, which is different from Africa and the Middle East, is still peaceful on the whole and has determined its own direction. Theoretically, there are no
uncertain factors.
I thought that with such a situation, this peacekeeping operation could be successfully concluded in half a year. After that, I would sum up the peacekeeping experience learned from Australia, New Zealand, Portugal and other countries and promote it in China.
However, I didn't expect that an Asian financial crisis would directly hit Southeast Asian countries, especially Indonesia, which is close to East Timor, and break the backbone.
With the precipice decline of the economy, the current regime is in danger. In order to pass on the domestic contradictions and keep the existing regime, the current Indonesian leaders, regardless of the follow-up influence, incited domestic nationalism, resulting in the continuous rise of violence against foreigners. Not to mention, it also contributed to the continuous deterioration of the situation in East Timor, and even threatened the security of the UN peacekeeping forces.
In the face of this situation, the UN peacekeeping forces actively assist the refugees who fled from Indonesia to East Timor and suffered from Indonesian nationalists and persecution; on the other hand, they demand that the garrison strengthen its vigilance in order to deal with possible accidents.
At the same time, the peacekeeping forces of various countries began to report the local situation to their own countries, so as to seek support, so as to rescue their own people as soon as possible. At the same time, the existence of Tongwei and the forces forced the leaders of the current Indonesian regime to restrain the Nationalists, so as to reduce their losses in Indonesia.
Among them, Australia, which is close to East Timor, has the fastest reaction. As soon as the local situation deteriorated, they sent warships and planes to cruise the waters off East Timor. At the same time, a fleet of six C-130 Hercules military transport planes landed at the field airport temporarily opened by the United Nations in East Timor. The Australian people who fled from Indonesia can get a second place I will return to Australia by these planes in a short time.
Moreover, Australian soldiers armed to the teeth have opened several safe passages on the border between East Timor and Indonesia, so that the subsequent Australian people can safely enter East Timor through these passages and then leave by military aircraft.
New Zealand's response is also very fast. However, due to its weak ability, it is unable to organize enough ships and planes. However, because they belong to an alliance system with Australia, New Zealand people can take Australian planes to Australia first, and then return to New Zealand by civil aviation.
Portugal is a little worse than these two countries. After all, Portugal is far away from Europe, and it is not a strong power. However, as a colonial sovereign of East Timor and part of Indonesia, Portugal's influence in the local area can not be underestimated.
As a result, through diplomatic means to have a quarrel and communication with all parties in Indonesia, the people of Portugal are the least affected among several countries.
The only country that has neither local influence nor external support is China. Because of this, China is one of the four countries undertaking the peacekeeping mission in East Timor, which is most adversely affected.
Since the beginning of the turmoil, there have not been many East Asian Americans who have been impacted into East Timor. After all, no matter how poor the country is, it is one of the top five countries in the world. Many people feel that with a big country in the East, they can be more or less covered.
Therefore, many people of East Asian descent are attracted by the name.
At the beginning, more than 20 people in Chen Fang were still busy, but as time went on, more and more people fled. Chen Fang's more than 20 people were overwhelmed.
That's all. When Indonesian nationalists find out that the domestic peacekeepers in East Timor are not real armed forces, they become more and more unscrupulous.
They even began to abuse and maltreat unarmed refugees on the border. Chen Fang and others were furious, but they had nothing to do. Because of their nature, they were not even equipped with weapons.What do they do with it? What about counterattack?
As a result, Chen Fang could only report back to China. I hope that China can send aid forces to solve or even calm down the difficulties encountered here.
However, he has made three formal reports to China and made requests for support, but none of them has received a formal reply.
In this regard, Chen Fang has no choice but to feel the importance of a strong country. Your ships and warships can't get out of the sea, your planes can't fly over, and your power extension can't reach this place. Naturally, you can't use your fist to speak to those nationalists who only bully the soft and fear the hard. Naturally, you can't protect those people who are attracted to you.
But these things are not available in China at this moment, so Chen Fang can't do anything except to go around the camp these days and appease the people who have come here with his enthusiasm and concern, but it's useless except to be extremely tired.
Therefore, at this moment, Chen Fang with a satellite phone is also very hesitant, and he doesn't know whether to call or not, however. Just as Chen let go of his satellite phone and hesitated, a peacekeeper rushed in, shouting indignantly, "commander Chen, come out and have a look. There's something wrong on the other side."
Hearing the speech, Chen Fang quickly put down the satellite phone and ran out with the peacekeeper. Then he went into the observation post and picked up the telescope to have a look. His eyes suddenly began to crack.
Only a few Indonesian nationalists on the opposite border stripped several East Asian female refugees naked, and then drove them here and into East Timor like dogs.
When Chen Fang saw this, he immediately threw the telescope in his hand, grabbed some clothes, and rushed out. Several other peacekeepers, like Chen Fangfei, ran to the women and put their clothes on them.
Then they were covered and retreated to the observation post.
The Indonesian nationalists behind them are full of laughter, and some even shout in pure English, "we'll send you some more tomorrow."
Chen Fang replied, "beast!" I don't care.
However, when we got back to the observation post, a woman suddenly knelt down and begged, "our ancestors came from China. Please, sir, can we go back to our hometown?"
When Chen Fang heard this, he was very sad. He really didn't know how to answe
