Chapter 1622 The two countries should be united
For the new leadership of the Soviet Union, almost all countries pay attention to, of course, including the United Kingdom, is nothing more than a two-part composition, Brezhnev’s fans of the legacy, including the first secretary of the Moscow City Committee Grishin, Serpitsky, Gikhonov and these people.
As well as Andropov’s promotion, and then appointed by the head of the map, into the highest core layer of Ligachev, Ryzhkov and these people, they basically belong to and the head of the map a group of rising stars.
Of course the latter half of the members, most have been proven by history, the level is not as good as the former, the former may not be able to do earth-shattering performance, but at least will not screw things up.
For these new faces, of course, Britain is extremely important, Alan Wilson tried to collect as much public information as possible, to see what the level of these reformers actually is, but one thing is certain, like the map head so complete defector, these people are not able to catch up, in fact, the map head to promote these people in a few years later are his opponents.
Fools also have boundaries, after a few years in power, these map head of the promotion of the people also feel the country in danger, as for the qidan people that are later to be promoted again.
After looking at these so-called reformers, Alan Wilson used to focus on Brezhnev’s remaining party, to be honest, he paid the most attention to the Soviet Union’s nominal No. 2 person, the chairman of the Council of Ministers Gikhonov, if the existence of Chernenko itself is low enough, Gikhonov, the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the existence of the even lower.
From public information, Gikhonov is well suited to be an engineer, or technician, who carries out orders. And that’s exactly what he was, a shop steward and engineer.
Gikhonov would have been a man of little political prestige in the Soviet leadership group.
When Brezhnev was secretary of the Dnepropetrovsk regional committee in charge of the defense industry, Gikhonov was in charge of the factories of the region under the leadership of Bo. Although Gikhonov was not an old classmate of Bo’s, he became a good friend because he studied the same specialty at that time and was in a superior-subordinate relationship.
Alan Wilson on the nominal number two person in the USSR only a throwback impression, that is, Gikhonov later stepped down as chairman of the Council of Ministers because of his age, if the age of a little smaller, the map head are not ready to replace him.
This can illustrate a problem, Gikhonov himself is very old, and there is no political ambition, the map head said how to change, he how to carry out, so in the leadership constantly changing the map head period, Gikhonov surprisingly did so long the number two figure.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, Allen Wilson even thought that Gikhonov’s leadership of the USSR was better than this map head who just came up with a lot of expectations.
Now the whole world said that Map Head was loaded with people’s expectations, and he was the only one who felt that this idiot did not resemble a human ruler. Allen Wilson also held a seminar with the intelligence services on the grounds of emphasizing the Soviet Union threat, stating that they should be emphatically vigilant against this threat to the free world.
The more there is no threat, the more the threat should be emphasized, otherwise if the Americans see that the Soviet Union is not enough to worry about, then Britain’s unification value is not lost?
There is also really should contribute to help the U.S. pressure on Germany and Japan, if the map head for a long time to the bottom of the Soviet Union to leak, things will not be good.
At the same time that Britain emphasized the Soviet threat, the map head who had just become the No. 1 person with great power held a meeting for the first time, pulling Ligachev, Ryzhkov and Chebrikov into the core circle. The former is his own direct line, as for Chebrikov, people are the chairman of the National Security Council, the leadership of the KGB of course to enter the core circle.
Now the head of the map has just come up, can only make additions, wait until the right time, can only Brezhnev’s fans one by one, and I believe that these people have been psychologically prepared.
For the higher level of affairs, the new director of the Moscow Security Service Alexeyev is not qualified to ask, although he is also a big man in the eyes of ordinary people standing in the sky, but and the Kremlin inside the person, completely insufficient to see.
Alexeyev took his wife out for a walk to buy some food, but of course there was still a queue, even in the special store.
At this time, the good son does not even know that outside the Iron Curtain, his father in the blood sense, is the first to watch and want to put his claws into the imperialist dogs.
That is, now too busy to prepare for the work of the Plaza Accord, wait until in Japan to make a fortune, the supreme authority of the horse gun will be aimed at the Soviet Union, now some of the fine details have been aimed at, such as the good Daer often buy Fanta drinks.
As a juxtaposition to Pepsi, the big name beverage that existed in the USSR, Fanta had always been about serving the people, and if it weren’t for the fact that Pepsi had grabbed the line and had to say that they were some kind of the people’s cola, and that Coca-Cola was the bourgeoisie’s, Fanta would have hated to tell this competitor to get the hell out of there.
The Culture Tsar is resigning from Maphead, saying he’s leaving his job, and Alexeyev is bringing with him, in addition to his wife, Irina Virganskaya. Maphead entered Moscow in the first place as nothing more than a rootless outsider, so who knows how long he can stay? Political changes were always happening, and no one could guarantee their safety.
On the contrary, the Culture Tsar has been in the battlefield since Khrushchev’s time, stood through the long Brezhnev era, the Tsar’s son befriended an outsider’s daughter who had just stepped up to the top of the world, and it was definitely not Foltseva who was flattered, and it was only after the contact that Alexeyev realized that Irina Vilganskaya was good-looking.
Alexeyev, who is in charge of Moscow’s security affairs, his wife is actually also a purges workers origin, it was not unexpected that should be sent abroad to carry out the mission, but obviously, the tsar’s son can not be cheap imperialist lackeys, kept for their own use. The effect was also obvious, having such a wife made it much easier to deal with ordinary people.
Elena Verganskaya was also a commoner, a regular medical worker, a job that was treated just as well as researchers and paid more handsomely.
Alexandra was holding the daughter of the number one man like an unsophisticated young girl, not wary of her best friend, but if Elena Verganskaya really thought so, it was all over.
Moscow was at that moment like a gradually approaching spring, full of anticipation for a new leader, and the First Daughter was obviously able to feel this, secretly scanning the man full of security with her afterglow from time to time, thinking it was quite hidden, but in fact all of it was noticed by the wife of the head of the Security Service, who was next to her in a stupidly sweet manner.
Time is not early, Alexeyev took his wife home, not surprisingly, Foltseva’s resignation was rejected by the head of the map, the country now still needs the culture czar to shine.
The changes in the Soviet Union are just beginning, and on the side of the free world, Alan Wilson is in France on business, discussing specific attitudes about joint support for the U.S. The French have always been insubordinate, especially in this world, where France still has a firm grip on North Africa, and where the frequency of insubordination has increased significantly.
“For those who don’t know, the pattern of this world is two empires, East and West?” Listening to the voices that focused on Europe and emphasized the interests of France, the corner of Allen Wilson’s mouth twitched, and there was no comment on this.
Even at some point, Allen Wilson regretted whether covering France was the wrong thing to do?
At least the current strength of the United Kingdom is still more than France, if it is not to look at the French every time they want to be more autonomous, more independent, it can highlight the unique position of the United Kingdom, the supreme authority has long since clapped the eucalyptus and rose.
Conversely, though, are the French not also taking advantage of the special relationship between Britain and the United States to demonstrate their own unifying value on the Soviet Union?
French President Mitterrand, a left-wing leader with strong ties to the French Communist Party, espoused a strategy of East-West balance, understanding very well that it was only by balancing the two that France could maximize its autonomy and not be a follower of the Americans.
Alan Wilson, on the other hand, said that the United States had a really big problem, and once the United States did not solve its economic problems, it could not give support to Europe, and it was still hard enough for Britain and France to fight against the Soviet Union.
Besides, the sacrifice is Germany and Japan, Britain and France as long as the unity of the two countries, can ensure that in this economic adjustment in the middle of the peace.
“Even if the same in the European Community, the two countries say that it is better than the three countries say that it is better, Germany should also be weakened a little. Germany is not a threat to Britain, which has never been a land power. But Germany and France are both on the same continent, and should rightly be balanced against each other.”
Disregarding the Soviet Union, aside from the US and Japan, Britain, France, and Germany are in the third, fourth, and fifth places in the world, and Britain, though shunted by Japan, has always pressed France and Germany in this world. Germany is in fourth place and France is in fifth place because many French industries are really not very profitable.
Understandably Britain’s policy under Labor was that preserving jobs was more important than profits. This was not the case in Germany, where the German Communist Party was never very strong, and the Federal Republic of Germany was, from the very beginning, in the midst of pure capitalism, which led to German industries being more export-oriented than either Britain or France.
Once Germany’s currency had to be appreciated, it would have been to the advantage of Britain and France, which would have been under much less pressure to compete with Germany’s industries. At this point in time, the whole world is only these cakes, what to talk about European unity, Germany is the most suitable target.
Well said! Mitterrand praised in his heart, if the United States must absorb a massive amount of life essence extreme sublimation wave to get through the big time, it is always better to do so to Germany and Japan than to do so to Britain and France, “but Britain and France must be united to be able to do so, no matter where the meeting is held, the two countries must take a common position.”
“Of course, there is no doubt about that.” This common position can be very difficult to fight for, Alan Wilson felt his mouth to blister, and quickly find a place to rest to restore energy.
