Soviet Union 1991

Second update

Before French President Chirac woke up from his dream of seizing the Bouteful Pool oil field, the Vietnamese Navy gave him a slap in the face. The Vietnamese Ministry of National Defense announced that it would not first purchase France's Casal class. destroyer, and instead carefully considered the Soviet Kassin-class destroyer, and Li Deying specifically used the Ministry of National Defense to speak in order to avoid the eyes of the French. Shifting all the blame to the Vietnamese army, instead taking all the blame on yourself.

So President Chirac was dumbfounded. While the battle for the Tiffle Pool oil field was still in full swing, the Soviet Union went straight to cut off the small business behind France and Vietnam. When it came to controlling Vietnam, Chirac had not supported her own power. How could Vietnam be an opponent of the Soviet Union? You must know that the Soviet Union had aided Vietnam for more than 20 years. The Vietnamese army's sea, land and air combat systems were all developed from the Soviet army. It can even be said that without the assistance of the Soviet Union, Vietnam would not be able to develop at all. Decent navy.

Under such circumstances, Chirac became a little embarrassed. At the recent EU meeting, the UK used the excuse of withdrawing from the EU to continuously put pressure on Germany and France, threatening France and Germany to assume the same obligations as the UK. Everyone knows the reason. It was nothing more than the turmoil in the Middle East that disturbed the Dutch Shell Group's position as the number one in oil trading. This made Prime Minister John Major very angry. And when he knew that the initiators behind it were still France and Germany, he began to The EU applied pressure.

After all, Britain is now the blood transfusion country in Europe, and France and Germany are only united because of their interests. In other words, the European Community is originally a group of guys with evil intentions, getting together to discuss how to carve up the third world.

When Alain Juppé, the head of government of the Fifth French Republic, and Chirac, the head of state, sat together, they had a heated discussion about the Soviet actions against France. Chirac believed that it was necessary to retaliate against the Soviet Union. Since they had disrupted France's interests in Vietnam, France would not let go of the Soviet oil fields in Libya.

Anyway, the Soviet Union has noticed its own little tricks, so there is no need to secretly fund pro-American armed forces. Instead, it can stand up openly to support anti-Soviet forces and speed up the seizure of the Butiflechi oil field.

Prime Minister Juppe questioned whether Chirac's actions were correct from the beginning. Although the Prime Minister does not interfere with the international situation in most cases.

"But if we do this, the happiest person is the United States, because France pays for pro-American forces to suppress pro-Soviet forces. In the end, we may have a busy schedule and let the Americans take advantage."

"Secondly, the happy ones are the Germans. They are watching us and gloating about our misfortune. Anyway, the loss of the French is a good thing for Germany. As for the British, they are worried about the future of the Shell Group and have no time to pay attention to us. So now Does President Chirac still think that funding pro-American forces to attack Soviet-controlled oil fields is the right thing to do?”

"So?" Chirac didn't know what Jupe wanted to say.

"So I think the best way is for France and the Soviet Union to join forces to carve up or even annex Libya's oil interests within the framework of the European Union, and squeeze out Germany and the United Kingdom. Isn't France in a difficult economic period now? We sell to How long does it take for a Kasar-class destroyer in Vietnam to pay back its investment? And what is the payback period for an oil field? It shouldn’t be said much, right?

Indeed, arms sales seem to be incredibly profitable, but they are far less easy than income from the oil industry. Juppé tactfully criticized Chirac's policy in Libya. He believed that it was a mistake to choose to cooperate with the United States. After all, France is independent. A self-sufficient European power is not a pawn in the hands of the United States.

"Unite the Soviet Union? Now you have a falling out with the Soviet Union, and then you go to join forces with the Soviet Union to deal with the United States?" Chirac's eyes widened, as if he was hearing the funniest joke in the world.

"What does that have to do with it? Don't forget that national interests are the most important. Besides, haven't France and Russia always had a tradition of friendship? And what benefits can France get from joining forces with the United States? Libya's agents are from the United States and the funds are from France. The oil fields ultimately acquired by the government are not ours, at least most of them will not be ours, because the United States wants to use these oil fields to repay the debt of the world's largest oil company owned by Britain. Understand, as long as Britain does not fall. The United States can continue to use NATO to control Europe, and this is the most fatal point.”

"President de Gaulle wanted to break the situation in which the United States controlled Europe, but he just barely kept France at a certain distance. What's more, the Soviet Union is now undergoing a major disarmament. Nearly half of the original Soviet steel torrent has been eliminated. They have switched from strategic offensive to strategic offensive. has become a strategic defense, so France must see the situation clearly. The Soviet Union is no longer our main enemy. The Americans are the ones who want to take advantage of the economic crisis to intervene in Europe. Don’t forget that in Libya, the United States’ allies include the United Kingdom, France and many other European countries. One more France means one less piece of meat in the bowl. In this case. , so why don’t the Americans take advantage of the contradiction between France and the Soviet Union to benefit themselves? It would be great if France could get a piece of the pie afterwards.”

Prime Minister Juppe took a deep breath and expressed all his opinions. He hoped that Chirac could see this clearly and never be so stupid as to serve as a pawn for the United States in the anti-Soviet conflict, which would end up being a thankless task.

After listening to Prime Minister Juppé's words, Chirac fell into deep thought. What the other party said was not without reason. Instead of colluding with the United States,

"So what should we do now? Unite with the Soviet Union? I guess they are now in a righteous state, how could they unite with us to fight against the United States?" President Chirac said helplessly.

"Yanayev is a shrewd head of state. It can be seen from the deal with Vietnam that he has left a way out for us. Le Duc Anh announced that he would not consider France first, but would carefully consider the Soviet Union. This is their mercy." Juppé continued to analyze, "Let's make a bet? As long as we can stop aiding pro-American forces, the Soviet Union is likely to adopt the situation of Soviet-French dialogue to peacefully resolve this issue. At that time..."

Juppé stopped there and let Chirac imagine the subsequent developments himself.

Chirac took a deep breath, nodded and said, "I understand, Prime Minister Juppé."
