The Boeing 747 landed at the Moscow airport and looked at everything around him. James Baker always had a dazed feeling that the United States was already declining, while the Soviet Union was thriving.
This country, with the advantages of gcism, can concentrate the power of the country and accomplish anything! For example, focus on the development of space technology! In the United States, even if the president emphasized it for a long time, in the end, it has to be blocked by Congress. The money is all taxpayer's money, and it must be famous when it is spent!
This time, as U.S. Secretary of State, Baker came to negotiate with the Soviets about the ownership of Alaska.
No matter what agreement is finally reached, what the United States needs is grinding, grinding time! The longer the better!
It's just that Baker doesn't have much confidence. He knows that when they use conspiracy methods, these political veterans at the top of the United States are not as good at using methods as a young Andre!
This Andre is even more terrifying!
He and the ambassador who came to greet him got into the car, a group of people, and went in the direction of the Kremlin.
Although the two sides are already in a state of war, the necessary etiquette is still there. For example, at the gate of the Kremlin, Soviet Foreign Minister Dobrynin personally greeted him at the gate.
The two have known each other for a long time. When they were in the United States, Dobrynin once invited the Baker family to be a guest at his home and taste Soviet cuisine. But now, the two sides stand together and already represent two countries.
"You are very welcome, Mr. Baker." Dobrynin said, "Although you have declared war on us, personally, I still welcome you very much."
Just welcome from a personal point of view! Baker was also very embarrassed. After shaking hands, they entered the conference room together.
In the conference room, Baker finally got to the point: "Mr. Dobrynin, regarding the Alaska issue, I think we can resolve it through negotiation."
"Yeah, if you don't use nuclear bombs at every turn, in fact, we can solve many problems through negotiation." Dobrynin said: "Except for core issues, such as Israel must disappear. Apart from issues that concern our fundamental principles, all others can be resolved through negotiation."
Israel, must disappear, this is a matter of principle of the Soviet Union! Baker knew that nothing was going to work here. The Jews are trying to manipulate the top leaders of the Soviet Union. Of course, this is courting death!
However, for the United States, why not! Moreover, Jews in the United States have already succeeded! It is the Jews who control the U.S. government! And himself, he has also stood in the ranks of the Jews, which is the result of no choice.
Dobrynin, when he came up, he gave Baker the dismantling. The Alaska issue can be negotiated. Israel must destroy the country. This is the attitude of the Soviet Union! In fact, the problem in Alaska is also to put pressure on the US government. Don't you want to declare war? The guys are going to play in Alaska first!
As a result, when the Soviet Union was about to go to war, the United States admitted that it was cowardly, and actually came to negotiate! It seems that this move by Marshal Andre is quite shrewd, and it just hit the soft underbelly of the United States.
Alaska's position in the Cold War is of course needless to say. The United States has always regarded Alaska as a bridgehead for fighting the Soviet Union. It originally had 100,000 American troops stationed here.
However, as the United States loses war after war, the United States is constantly mobilizing its troops. For example, several division-level troops in Alaska have been transferred to the Middle East and the United Kingdom. The American troops in Saudi Arabia, of course, are for the sake of At the last moment, to meet the Israeli army. Moreover, when the United States declared war on the Soviet Union, the expected battlefield was the Middle East.
But now, there are only about 50,000 troops left on the island. It is obviously not enough to deal with the attack of the Soviet Union. After all, the land of Alaska is very vast, and these troops are distributed in Alaska, which is almost a drop in the bucket!
If it was the World War II era, as long as the coastline was well guarded, cross-sea landing operations were definitely not the strength of the Soviets. But now, the Soviets have a big killer such as ground-effect aircraft, which can directly carry out force projection. Moreover, there is no need to seize ports and coastlines, and they land directly inland!
The United States has no confidence in winning this battle, at least, not until the mobilization for the war is complete. And the U.S. military is also exhausted now, so the U.S. government is negotiating with the Canadian government, hoping that Canada can send troops to help the defense together.
Baker smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's talk about Alaska. You think the original $7.2 million is too cheap, so we can continue to provide another fund. If you want to buy it back from us, 7.2 million US dollars is too little hundreds of years, the inflation factor, I hope you can take it into account, we can negotiate and formulate a suitable solution."
appropriate price! Dobrynin said: "Mr. Baker, since you are sincere, then we can start negotiations, but we don't want to drag on for too long, at most five days. This is the bottom line we accept."
Five days! Obviously, the Soviets are not stupid. Knowing that they are trying to delay time, they will die.
"Okay, can we start then? Let's calculate the inflation over the years..." Just as Baker was about to start a detailed exchange, he saw Dobrynin stand up: "I'm sorry, negotiating with you, You can talk to my assistant, I have other things to do."
Immediately, Baker's face turned red. As the Secretary of State of the United States, he was supposed to accept Andre's summons here. Now, Andre did not see him, there was only one Dobrynin who was on the same level as him. Now, even Dobrynin didn't talk to himself in detail, he just sent one of his subordinates to talk?
Is this too bullying?
"Mr. Dobrynin, oh, no, Comrade Dobrynin, don't you think it's a disrespect for hospitality? You've changed a lot since you came back from America," Baker said.
When he was in the West, Dobrynin maintained a good relationship with American dignitaries. They all forgot that Dobrynin was still a member of the gc party. Many times, they called him Mr. Dobrynin, not a comrade.
Baker was already very angry. Looking at Baker, Dobrynin couldn't help but say: "Baker, my old friend, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have changed a lot! You used to say that America is democratic and free. , you want to serve the interests of the United States, and now, the object of your service is the United States?"
