Text Chapter 250: Embarrassment at the United Nations Conference

Fourth update

The United Nations General Assembly generally holds regular sessions from September to December each year, and meets as needed thereafter. And the Secretary-General may convene a special session within 15 days after receiving a request from the Security Council or more than half of the United Nations member states to convene a special session, or receiving a notification from more than half of the member states agreeing to convene a meeting.

Of course, the convening of this special United Nations meeting is about the follow-up issues after the signing of the Chemical Weapons Convention. Under the secret operation of the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, this convention is more cautious than any previous one. many. Because the permanent members are prepared to make this treaty not applicable to their own countries under certain special circumstances, in other words, the five permanent members have special immunity from the chemical treaty.

What if there is any ambiguity between a country and a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council? Sorry, do you know South Africa? The last time this country considered acquiring nuclear weapons, it had been suspended from its seat in the United Nations General Assembly for nearly a year. No one can deny the supreme rights of the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, because those who deny it will eventually disappear.

Of course, at the beginning of the meeting, representatives from each country came to the stage to make remarks about the destruction of the chemical weapons treaty. In fact, everyone knew that this was just a process, and the political conspirators at the negotiating table had already divided themselves. cake. Small countries cannot intervene and have no way to object.

The representative sent by the United States is Secretary of State Warren, who represents the image of the U.S. government in diplomacy. The representative of the Soviet Union was Foreign Minister Shevardnadze, who represented the will of Moscow. They know more clearly that the top leaders of the two countries have reached a consensus, and this is the most important thing. The conference is just a superficial formality, and only the transactions behind the five gangsters are the real control.

The table at the United Nations General Assembly venue is already full of representatives from various countries, and they are all waiting for the United States to take the stage to speak first. Some representatives were whispering at the table, with undisguised disappointment on their faces. They must have been victims of this convention, but they were also angry at the shadowy political deals between the United States and the Soviet Union. Why can't you just do whatever you want and not allow us to defend ourselves with weapons?

Warren walked onto the stage with steady steps and took out the manuscript he had prepared for a long time. This was originally a speech with no technical content. So he seemed to be talking about the manuscript a little nonchalantly.

"I am very grateful that I can stand here and make my own contribution to the destruction of chemical weapons. Since the advent of chemical weapons, there have been countless casualties caused by them, from Germany to Japan. The fascists back then created terrible murderous weapons, He was also punished with justice.”

"Here today, we will work together to destroy those chemical weapons that endanger human security and threaten the living environment. At this point, the United States declares and guarantees to the world that we will destroy our stockpile of chemical weapons in strict accordance with the plan. Absolutely not It will bring back the tragic events of World War I.”

At this point, Warren changed the topic and began to whitewash and defend the United States for not completely destroying chemical weapons. "Of course, as a responsible country, the United States is understandably cautious about chemical weapons. We have accumulated a Chemical weapons are purchased not because we want to use them. It is through it that we can better study the damage caused by chemical weapons and come up with corresponding antidotes. The United States is not a hegemonic country as everyone imagines. Everything they do is for themselves. Kind of. Free America loves peace and kindness.”

The United States began to think of itself as the messenger of justice and kindness, which simply made Saddam cry in the toilet. Have you ever seen a guy who claims to be just and equal to be so cruel?

"Please believe us and give us some more time. The United States will definitely properly resolve all chemical weapons so that the world will no longer have the terrible threat of chemical weapons."

Hearing this, Shevardnadze almost laughed out loud. It is as ridiculous for Americans to say that they are not a hegemonic country as it is for President Bush to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Of course, those small countries dare to be angry but dare not speak out. In the face of the Wuchang who does not act according to reason, any rebuttal will be in vain.

After Warren finished speaking, there was sparse and mechanical applause from the audience. Everyone expressed dissatisfaction with Warren's speech, especially Libyan President Muammar Gaddafi, who showed uncharacteristic indifference when others applauded. and indifferent. Completely forgetting that he still needs to rely on others to live his life.

By the time Shevardnadze came on stage, the scene had quieted down, and everyone no longer thought about the hypocritical performance of these UN hooligans. Anyway, this so-called speech was just a formality. Shevardnadze walked to the podium, but he had not yet taken out the manuscript. A certain representative in the audience suddenly stood up.

If most people wear suits on formal occasions, then Gaddafi is definitely the most unique one. Dressed in Libyan national regalia, he suddenly stood up and questioned Shevardnadze as he was about to speak.

"Will all the chemical weapons of the Soviet Union be destroyed? Don't tell me that your answer is the same as that of the United States. We need to use chemical weapons to find ways to crack down on mass destruction." Gaddafi was obviously not interested in this young man. Minister Shevardnadze was somewhat dissatisfied.

"No, our remaining stockpile can be used on the enemies of the Soviet Union first. Especially those guys who offend the dignity of the Soviet Union, and then we can discuss the destruction of weapons of mass destruction." Shevardnadze retorted bluntly. It also told Gaddafi in a subtext that you are not qualified to point fingers at the political issues of the Soviet Union.

Gaddafi smiled coldly, took out a document from his arms, stood up and held it high, and said to the representatives around him, "My friends, this is the evidence that the Soviet Union violated the Treaty on the Destruction of Chemical Weapons. They sold a considerable part of the chemical weapons that should have been destroyed to the Saddam regime."

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was silent.

Shevardnadze and Warren's faces turned pale by the way. The latter turned his head stiffly and looked at the former who tried his best to remain calm with an incredible look, as if questioning why the other party became like this.

Gaddafi was very proud. He felt that he had done something very right, which was to make the Soviet Union lose face in public. (To be continued.)
