Soviet Union 1991

Text Chapter 406 The Tragedy of Poland

It will break out after the limited exemption ends tomorrow

The increasingly fierce resistance of Poland and Hungary gave the European Union a feeling that it was disorganized and difficult to lead. Not to mention the Soviet Union, even Western European countries felt very helpless against Kwasniewski's policy of making enemies on both sides. If anything, The only country that can unite the whole of Europe to fight it to death may be Poland since ancient times.

Poland is stupid because of the so-called national self-confidence of Polishism. Since its independence from the red forces in 1989, it has defeated the Soviet Union and Germany and wiped out the shame of national subjugation in World War II. It has become the slogan of every Polish leader. They always It is a dream to restore the glory of Władysław II during the Polish-Lithuanian United Dynasty. It is no wonder that the Polish top brass with inflated self-confidence and distortion always make some strange remarks. It is even more incredible than the Soviet Union's hidden ambition to regain Constantinople.

Kwasniewski recently made shocking remarks at an international conference. He said that no country should try to control Poland's economy. Although Poland has escaped from the shadow of the Red Empire in the past few years, it is absolutely Poland will never become an economic slave of the free world. No matter what conspiracy the other side adopts, Poland will never perish. History belongs to Poland, and victory also belongs to Poland.

Kwasniewski only criticized the wealth plundering of the Western world, but downplayed the aid and support of the Soviet Union. It seems that Poland also kept a careful mind and regarded the Soviet Union as its own escape route.

On the TV news, Polish President Kwasniewski made an impassioned speech, looking like a leader leading Poland to revitalization. He was full of justice and hope. Even Yanayev in front of the TV Seeing his performance, she nodded slightly. Said sarcastically. "He is really an excellent politician who is good at deceiving the people. It is a pity that what the people need is a leader who can lead them out of the predicament, not a political clown who makes unfounded claims."

The louder the Polish president's slogans are, the more it means that Poland has not found a way out of being plundered. It has arbitrarily set up trade barriers and refused to accept mediation. After the US-controlled World Bank stopped providing loans, it rejected the Soviet Union's help. Poland's suicide attempt has opened everyone's eyes. Therefore, politicians who hope to appease the masses with unrealistic promises can only guarantee it for a while, but cannot guarantee future development.

"The next group of European countries must have dug a hole for Poland to jump into, and they just hope that he will be honest. If he is still unwilling, isn't it good to live? President Kwasniewski."

However, what Yanayev did not expect was that the revenge planned by the Western European countries would come faster than expected. Just when Poland was complacent, a phone call from the Elysee Palace brought the top leadership of Bellevue Palace to People are lifted up.

"The recent developments in Poland have made our European allies very worried. What do you think about this, President Chirac?" When Prime Minister Kohl talks about what you think, the subtext is often what method to use to attack Poland. Wasnevsky's enthusiasm.

"Compared with Poland, I'm actually more worried about Hungary, which is closer to the Soviet Union. Unexpectedly, it pushed Hungary to the red camp even though it was pressing harder and harder. This was very unexpected." Chirac took off his glasses. , wipe it gently. Then he responded to Cole, who confessed his concerns.

"Of course, it will be much easier to deal with Hungary after cleaning up Poland that is blocking the road. While we in the province are concentrating our firepower to deal with Hungary, Poland is making some small moves behind us."

Kerr joked, "Kwasniewski doesn't have the guts."

"Who knows." Chirac shook his head seriously.

After both parties on the call were silent for a while, Cole took the lead to break the awkward situation. He came up with a not too clever idea, "Maybe we can get Poland to take the bait. Isn't it a trade war? Then we Isn’t it enough to just let Poland forcefully remove the protective film he has put on himself?”

"You mean, bring Poland into the World Trade Organization?" Chirac was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Cole would actually use the means of the World Trade Organization. During the GATT negotiations held in Marrakech, Morocco last year, the Uruguay Round Ministerial Conference decided to establish a more global World Trade Organization to replace the previous GATT. Although the newly founded World Trade Organization has not yet truly begun to operate, the accumulated member states of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade mean that the WTO has been a high-profile international organization since its creation.

"Yes, to bring Poland into the World Trade Organization, haven't they been submitting applications before? Although we repeatedly delayed the opportunity in July, Poland, which has always been so vain, heard that it can join. The previous ones Will they still remember their grudges? "

In Cole's eyes, Poland is a country that will do everything possible to jump into the fire pit and still be grateful to those who pushed it into the fire pit. WTO? That was just a more flagrant excuse for European countries to dump goods and plunder the wealth of other weak countries. The Soviet Union, which was rejected by Western Europe, could choose not to play according to the other party's rules, and even had the idea of ​​setting up a trade circle of its own, while Poland wanted to pass The World Trade Organization reaches the pinnacle of its life. In fact, there are many ferocious-looking developed countries ready to carry out a legal plunder on him. The law of the jungle is cruel, and the weak are dangerous.

"So after throwing out bait to Poland, we asked him to play the game according to our rules. The first is to remove trade barriers, such as export subsidies for Polish agricultural and sideline products, and reduce customs tariffs, which will facilitate the large quantity of our goods. Dumping into Poland, we have not been afraid of trade war with Poland."

Chirac smiled. It is indeed better to use rules to restrict the opponent's actions than to encounter counterattacks that were half conspiracy and half conspiracy. And the more high-sounding the method, President Kovanevsky would have nothing to say. After all, it was you yourself in the first place. Crying, begging and shouting to join.

Prime Minister Kohl continued, "After we deal with Poland, it will be easier. Then we can win over Hungary. Instead of letting the Russians consume Hungarian sausages, they will have more choices and opportunities after joining the WTO. I think Al Alpad should know very well who is more important. This is a WTO invitation for other countries to apply, and Alpad will never let go of such a perfect 'gift.'

"After both Hungary and Poland fall into the trap, we can carry out the harvest openly. At least in the early stage, we should let other countries see the advantages of joining the World Trade Organization, and when it is almost mature, we can plunder their wealth. ”

Chirac asked, "You mean the fifteen-year protection period?"

"No, no, no, the fifteen-year protection period is really too long." Cole held the phone in his hand and said while flipping through the WTO regulations. "The fifteen-year protection period is not in our interests, so Poland cannot To join the World Trade Organization as a developing country, it must be a non-developing country. Of course, as compensation, we will also give them a certain period of time to ease their hesitation. However, this plan must be negotiated with other countries. After all, the WTO is not for the two of us."

"But everyone wants to trick Poland, don't they?" Chirac said. He could already imagine the more vicious WTO member states standing at the door, with butcher knives hidden behind their backs, waiting for Poland to come to the door with smiles on their faces.

"A temporary trade protection period of one or two years, this is the condition we have proposed. If a unanimous agreement can be reached between the United Kingdom and the United States, then we will allow Poland to join the World Trade Organization. We are preparing to hold the first session next year. Ministerial meeting, if Poland doesn’t take advantage of this opportunity, how long will it have to wait? So no matter what, Poland will not miss this opportunity to jump into hell.”

President Kohl made a final summary, and closed the last page of WTO regulations with a smile. He turned back and looked out the window at the snowy Berlin. Poland was divided once during World War II, and now their economy is still being divided by other countries. The country united and divided it up again.

Prime Minister Kohl sighed and said slowly, "There are too many refugees. It's time to divert conflicts and attention." (To be continued.)
