Soviet Union 1991
Main text Chapter 476: Soviet-French plot against NATO
Fifth update
This meeting reached a verbal agreement. In fact, it is impossible for France and the Soviet Union to sign any secret agreement. After all, the basis for the cooperation of interests between the two sides is not very solid. It can only be said that they will try their best to work together to cheat NATO under relatively certain circumstances. As for what kind of rift France will have with NATO after selling out its teammates, Yanayev has no control over it.
Since the reason for France's existence is to make things difficult for NATO countries, Yanayev will not hesitate to carry out the trouble-making campaign to the end. Just after completing this secret agreement, Soviet Prime Minister Pavlov suddenly announced a visit to France and announced to the outside world that the Soviet Union will conduct new trade cooperation with France and contribute to the economic and trade between the two countries. As an ally who has just received benefits, Chirac naturally reiterated the tradition of friendship between France and Russia since ancient times. Long live the friendship between the two sides.
This smoke bomb was a bit big, and it made the European political elites unable to understand what happened between the two countries. Why did it suddenly become a friendly relationship between France and Russia? This was even more sudden than Kissinger's visit to China that year. Is there any dirty secret behind it? The bigger the Soviet Union's moves in Europe, the less other countries noticed France's moves in Libya.
Under such circumstances, the new agents cultivated by France in Libya began to forcibly annex Libya's oil fields. They didn't care which European country was behind those oil fields. For France, which had huge ambitions, forcibly dividing the oil fields with Britain and Germany was its goal.
At the same time, KGB intelligence officers launched lobbying operations in Kufra. Gaddafi, who was already in decline, was very surprised that he received a "friendly olive branch" from the Soviet Union at this time. You know, the whole world has abandoned him now. Except for his confidants and followers, Gaddafi is isolated and helpless.
The KGB intelligence officer was not here to help in times of need. He was just indirectly providing Gaddafi with information through this contact with Gaddafi's confidants. The oil fields in central Libya will be in a weak defense for some time to come. If the government forces still want to counterattack and seize Libya's oil town, it is best to take this opportunity. France will also conduct air strikes in the central region to cover the attack. The target of this air strike is no longer Gaddafi's government forces, but the Libyan Free Army that controls the oil fields.
"The opposition base of the Free Army is now in chaos. The agents controlled by various countries have no energy to fight southwards in order to compete for the exploitation rights of the oil fields. The longer things drag on, the more passive the government forces will be. So it is best to take advantage of this opportunity to march northwards and recapture your oil towns. I think the reason why President Gaddafi did not take action is that he realized that the oil in the south can no longer meet the supply of the army. Either slowly consume it all, or take a gamble to seize the oil town, at least he will not sit and wait for death. Moreover, France has temporarily not included the government army in the list of targets for attack, so your number one air threat will disappear."
The words of the intelligence officer made Gaddafi think for a long time. In the end, he thought that this plan was very feasible. He thought that the plan provided by the KGB intelligence officer was feasible. Now the government army is indeed in the most critical moment. The weapons and equipment were destroyed in large quantities in the early stage of the war. Now the government army does not have enough tanks and planes.
What the Soviet Union has to do is to divert the government army's disaster to the oil town controlled by Britain and Germany.
Gaddafi made his last gamble and re-planned his strategy, which was to seize the oil mining area in central Libya. Under the instigation of the Soviet Union, he assembled his last armored forces to complete a northern expedition.
The actions of the government army immediately made Germany and Britain uneasy. This was simply to kill them. While the oil mining facilities were still intact, Britain and Germany were desperately mining oil in Libya, but they didn't expect Gaddafi to come back so soon. Of course, they were not nervous about Gaddafi's counterattack, because there were French fighters to protect British oil facilities. John Major even promoted that this was just Gaddafi's last war, and it would fail as always.
However, the reality surprised Prime Minister John Major. President Chirac stood up and announced that France would no longer send fighters to attack Gaddafi's government forces due to funding problems. The subtext that Chirac did not say was that this was France's retaliation for the uneven distribution of spoils among its allies.
There was no other way. Britain could only urgently dispatch a few fighter jets to block the attack of the government forces. However, Prime Minister Chirac's next move was even more decisive. He dispatched fighter jets to bomb the ground facilities of the agents supported by Britain and Germany to clear the way for the advance of Gaddafi's government forces. Because of the disputes over interests between France and NATO countries, the Libyan civil war was completely turned into a war launched by European powers through proxies.
France's move simply annoyed John Major and German Chancellor Kohl. Moscow could only say that it was a good job for such betrayal of its allies. This was the result of Britain and Germany trying to eat alone.
Since the other party had torn its face, France had no reason to pretend to be a good person. Moreover, France had always emphasized that the Mediterranean countries had been France's territory since ancient times. If France was embarrassed in Libya, Britain and Germany would definitely not have a good life. They would swallow up the interests of other countries in Libya in an ugly way.
France has proved with its own actions that offending a European power is a tragic end. With France making trouble, even if the UK dispatches fighter jets more frequently, it can't stand the rhythm of France selling out its teammates. With France making trouble, Gaddafi's government forces have a tendency to move forward and soon approach the core interests of Britain and Germany.
Under such circumstances, Britain and Germany had to bow their heads and beg France to show mercy. Before, Britain had thought about putting pressure on France to force the other party to make concessions, but France directly tore its face and declared that once Britain took measures, France would take more radical measures to force Britain to compromise, which was completely a barbaric and unreasonable image.
There was no way. In such a situation, Britain could only choose to give in. The oil fields in Libya were Shell's life-saving talisman. As a European oil control group that was losing ground in the Middle East war, the fall of Shell symbolized that Europe would lose a large amount of funds.
However, Britain and Germany's resentment towards France will not end. After all, they have violated their own interests. When France was busy collecting "black gold", cracks began to appear in the relationship between Britain, Germany and France. (To be continued.)
