This does not mean that all the import and export trade of the Republic of Burkina needs to pass through the Republic of Ghana.
It is the arms trade. Currently, it can only be shipped to the country through their ports.
Other countries…the upper and lower joints have not been opened yet.
The risk is too high!
Accidentally, the weapons and equipment were bought for them.
After hearing Sankara’s concerns, the Minister of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Republic of Burkinia stood up and assured:
“Don’t worry, President, don’t say that we haven’t had a conflict with the Republic of Ghana yet. Even if the war has broken out, our Ministry of Foreign Trade is 100% sure that the weapons and equipment needed by the army will arrive from the port of Ghana. Our country.”
Sankara looked at him.
Name: Antoine Bert
Nationality: Republic of Burkina, French Fourth Republic
Age: 41 years old
Position: Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Republic of Burkinia
Level: Ministerial
Loyalty: 90
“One hundred percent sure? Are you sure?
Bert, there is no room for sloppiness or carelessness in this kind of thing. If the weapons and equipment are confiscated by the customs of the Republic of Ghana, then our money will be used to enhance their strength. ”
Although the loyalty of 90% made it impossible for Bert to lie to him, Sankara still couldn’t believe it.
Because Bert talked too much.
“Yes, 100% sure!”
Faced with Sankara’s direct gaze, Bert’s eyes did not dodge at all, but he nodded decisively.
He replied firmly:
“If you, President, think the risk is too high, we can leave most of the weapons and equipment on the Soviet freighter. Only a small part will be unloaded. After these weapons and equipment arrive in the country, we can then transport the rest. part.”
Seeing that Bert was so determined, Sankara no longer hesitated and ordered:
“Okay, Carter, the specific matters of purchasing weapons and equipment should be left to your Ministry of National Defense to negotiate with the Soviet Union. The price doesn’t matter. I only have one request this time, and that is to do it quickly!
Bert, after the Soviet cargo ship arrives at the port, your Ministry of Foreign Trade will still be responsible for transporting weapons and equipment to our country. If necessary, you can ask Croco to assist you.
But I have another request, and that is to get access to other countries as soon as possible. A war is about to break out. We can’t just walk on one leg, we must be prepared for the worst. ”
“Yes, President!”
Carteret and Belt stood up immediately and responded loudly.
“The weapons and equipment matter will be like this for now. Julien, some time ago, I asked you to be responsible for importing a large amount of oil to Liaya. How is it going now?”
Sankara said, looking to the left.
Name: Maklu Jurian
Nationality: Republic of Burkina, French Fourth Republic
Age: 40 years old
Position: Ministry of Natural Resources Management of the Republic of Burkinia
Level: Ministerial
Loyalty: 93
As the Minister of Resources, Julien, like Bert, not only has the nationality of his country, but also the nationality of France, but it doesn’t matter.
After all, Sankara has not yet introduced a law restricting dual nationality, nor has he made any hints.
Moreover, to be precise, the two of them should have the nationality of the French Third Reich, not the French Fourth Republic.
But who said that the French Third Reich was not up to expectations?
Uh… Or maybe the bureaucrats didn’t live up to their expectations. Before the German army even arrived in Paris, they knelt down in front of the German Empire and raised the white flag.
But the army of the French Third Empire, or rather the army led by Andre, held on to the Maginot Line for five full years.
Until the coalition forces of the Soviet Union and a certain Eastern power invaded Berlin, the German Empire announced its surrender!
(PS: As a spoiler, a certain Eastern power did have a full-scale war with the United States, but it was not a full-scale war with the Soviet Union, and it was not an ally with Germany. The Second World War in this world was very chaotic! It was extremely chaotic!)
This is simply a miracle in the history of world war.
So much so that some people still say: “It must be God himself who wore a helmet and participated in the battle. Otherwise, how could they have persisted for so long?”
“Reporting to the President, according to your highest instructions in December last year, we have currently imported 317,000 tons of oil to the Republic of Liaya, and there will be 6 more to follow.83,000 tons of oil will be delivered to the country within three months. ”
Julien quickly stood up and replied.
Oil is not only the lifeblood of industry, but also the blood of the army!
If there is a lack of oil, then tanks, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, armored transport vehicles… will become a lump of iron that cannot be moved and is completely useless.
so,
When Sankara learned from the Soviet Union in December last year that the North African Strategic Intelligence Service was considering whether to plan a larger-scale war.
While continuing to purchase weapons from the Soviet Union, it also imported oil on a large scale.
One million tons of oil, even though the Libyan Republic has rich oil resources and the price is relatively low, it cost Sankara a full 45 billion North African CFA francs.
The wallet in my pocket suddenly became a lot smaller!
Of course, it is definitely not a one-time payment, but a one-time payment and delivery.
Originally, this task should be handed over to the Ministry of Foreign Trade.
But they were already responsible for transporting weapons, so after careful consideration, Sankara handed over this task to the Ministry of Resources.
“It’s still too slow!”
Sankara shook his head with some dissatisfaction and ordered with a serious expression:
“I said, we have to prepare for the worst.
Although Liaiya was less willing to listen to France after the last military coup, she still listened to it more or less.
Therefore, we must be prepared for Leah to stop exporting oil to us under pressure from France after the war breaks out!
In the last half month, no matter what method you use, even if you carry it yourself, you must transport at least 200,000 tons of oil to our oil depot! ”
This was tantamount to giving a death order to Julien.
However, Yu Lian did not hesitate at all, but decisively accepted this important task:
“Yes, President, please rest assured that our Ministry of Resources will definitely transport at least 200,000 tons of oil to our oil depot in the next half month!”
“very good!”
Sankara nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Amélie sitting in the middle:
“Amélie, last year I asked you to import a large amount of grain and store part of it when it was sold to the poor at low prices. Now, how has this task been completed?”
Although he asked the last question, this is actually what Sankara is most concerned about!
Without weapons, ammunition and oil, the soldiers can at least smash with their fists, kick with their feet, and bite with their teeth, but there is no food…
Then I’m afraid we really have no choice but to let the enemy slaughter us!
