USSR 1991

Page 243

This is a bold decision. Compared with the hidden dangers entrenched in the strait, it seems that the Americans who always think about subverting their own regime are the real confidantes.And a plan to suppress the PKK riots slowly formed in his mind.Even Öcalan would not believe that he was betrayed by the Moscow regime that he had always supported.Moscow has betrayed the PKK, and the Americans have betrayed their ally Turkey. This script may not even be understood by other countries.

Shevardnadze looked at Maziel's uncertain expression, and Secretary Madeleine's expression paled with anger.The corner of the mouth finally outlined the winner's deep arc, and the Soviet Union played the most critical card.Let the Americans lose completely.

"General Maziel, please listen to our explanation..."

Madeleine tried to remedy something, but Maziel just reached out and stopped Secretary Madeleine from speaking.He said in a low voice, "No, Secretary Madeleine, I think this negotiation is over. Oh, right. Here I want to emphasize one thing, the proposal for the arbitration in the Turkish Strait was actually initiated by the Americans Yes, Turkey was just being used. For that, I apologize to Minister Shevardnadze."

"You!" Madeleine wanted to say something, but Maziel didn't give her a chance to speak.

"This is just a political deal. Just like the United States trying to deploy an anti-missile system in Turkey, it is all for their own interests. But Ms. Madeleine, I hope you can understand one problem. Don't try to use despicable means Come to make Turkey surrender. So I want to tell you one thing today. Turkey unilaterally terminated the anti-missile system cooperation project, and at the same time revoked the Strait arbitration issue. Go and play by yourself, I will not play with you.”

Shevardnadze also stood up at the right time, reaffirming the relationship between the Soviet Union and its new ally, "In order to deal with the aircraft carrier battle group deployed by the United States in the Aegean Sea, the Soviet Union will provide military protection for Turkey. At the same time, it is also willing to provide Kurdish The movement of the Workers' Party provides accurate support to help Turkey further eradicate the scourge of the PKK in the southeastern provinces."

Shevardnadze is not a fool. The most important point in political confrontation is to keep enough behind, especially in the face of a capricious country like Turkey, he must be careful to retain most of the strength of the Kurds.After all, I don't know when Maziyer will be overthrown, and the Soviet Union may have to face another feud against Turkey.

"I think the goal of this meeting has been achieved." Shevardnadze stood up and shook hands with Maziel. His originally tense expression was relieved, and he could finally free his hands to solve the hidden dangers in the country.With the intelligence support of the KGB, Mazyel believed that he would soon be able to arrest the leader of the PKK and solve the biggest scourge.

Next, the Soviet Union will sign a series of treaties with the Mazier government to guarantee the relationship between the two countries.The United States is completely excluded from this game.

Ms. Madeleine stood up and closed the documents on the desktop. She glanced at Shevardnadze bitterly, and said to the people around her, "We have nothing to do here, let's go."

An exasperated Madeleine stepped on high heels and left the conference hall. She was going to win the game, but at the last moment she was turned back by the silent Shevardnadze.I have to say that this is really excellent irony.And she also had to consider how to face President Mario's gloomy face when she went back.Originally pinned his hopes on this last move, but was directly defeated on this critical occasion.

No wonder when she flew from Romania to Turkey, the White House Chief of Staff once said to her such a meaningful sentence, "Never let your opponent guess your next move, otherwise you will lose embarrassingly. "

Now Madeleine understood what it meant.

After stepping out of the conference hall, she said to the assistant beside her, "Immediately report this matter to Washington, and tell Your Excellency that we have been betrayed by the CIA. The so-called secret deal, and all these are designed by the Soviets." Trap. They're just waiting for us to get inside!"

Madeleine must now throw the blame to Director Tenet of the CIA as soon as possible to get rid of the relationship.Minimize your losses.She didn't care what kind of accusations Director Tenet would face. Anyway, the CIA was already notorious, and Madeleine didn't care that the CIA was hacked again.What's more, she just took the position of Secretary of State not long ago, and she didn't want to cut off her political career.

"Damn, damn, damn." Madeleine cursed inwardly as she walked.

The high-heeled shoes made a thumping sound when they stepped on the marble slab, just like Madeleine's inner anger. She has been suppressing her emotions that are about to explode, but she can't vent them in public.This woman, who has always emphasized that the world must revolve around the United States, experienced frustration for the first time.It was also her first diplomatic failure as secretary of state.

Reminiscent of the interior of the conference hall, when Shevardnadze and Maziel might be opening champagne to celebrate, Madeleine felt uncomfortable all over. Compared with Romania's successive victories and Turkey's major Waterloo, she felt The more it is not the taste.

"Forget it, let me contact the president directly." After getting into the car, Madeleine changed her mind again.She needs to immediately implement a bold plan to the United States to reverse this diplomatic failure.

"Turkey needs a riot. Yes, only in this way can the United States win the game again." Madeleine bit her lip and said to herself, "As long as there is political turmoil in Turkey, the troops deployed by the United States in northern Iraq will be There are logical reasons, and this kind of thing has to bypass the United Nations."

The atmosphere in the car became extremely frozen, and no one dared to disturb the strong woman's thoughts.

"What kind of Turkish military government, what kind of Soviet-Turkish alliance, countries that do not serve the interests of the United States should change their regime." The crazier Madeleine's inner thoughts became, the calmer her expression became.At this time, the Secretary of State is like a calm madman, planning a bold plan.

"The ultimate winner must be the United States!" Madeleine growled.

Chapter 543 You Are Crazy

In the Oval Office of the President in the White House, everyone is waiting for the final decision.Director of Intelligence Tenet, new National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, White House Chief of Staff Bowles and Secretary of Defense William Cohn.These political elites gathered in the office are all behind the scenes that Mario jointly planned and instigated the conflict between Turkey and the Soviet Union.

Everyone gathered in President Mario's office tonight, waiting for the final verdict to end.

President Mario was smiling all the time, because he believed that this was the most ingenious move made by the United States, and even the Soviets would not believe that the United States would quietly replace their last hole card.

But when President Mario listened to the situation report from Ankara, he couldn't laugh anymore.Secretary Madeleine's words were like a sharp thorn, piercing directly into his heart, making Mario a little breathless.

"We were lied to by the Soviets! It was all a well-designed conspiracy, and the so-called CIA's cooperation with Ocalan was a scam from beginning to end. They deliberately designed such a trap for us to jump off. God, why is the CIA Will agree to such a thing, don't they consider that it was a conspiracy from beginning to end? Our last step for Turkey has failed, and now Turkey has become a staunch ally of the Soviet Union."

Madeleine's voice was shrill, and what she said was more sarcasm.Sarcastic for everyone present in the Oval Office.

President Mario cut off the phone before Madeleine finished yelling, and he could imagine Madeleine's exasperated expression on the other end of the phone.However, President Mario still showed restraint and calmness, but the bulging veins on his hands revealed his mood at this time.Mario is in a very bad mood right now.

Berger and Cohen looked at each other, and they didn't expect the whole plan to evolve to this extent in the end, and Bowles and Tenet, who had been encouraging President Mario to continue, were secretly sweating for themselves at this time.It is hard for them to imagine what kind of outbreak the silent President Mario will have next.

President Mario took off his glasses and raised his head to glance at the four people present. He tried to take off his glasses, but his hands trembled a little from being too excited.Mario lowered his head, trying to maintain his final calm, he said slowly, "Secretary of Defense Cohen, Security Advisor Berger, you get out of the office first, I have something to talk to Director Tenet and Chief of Staff Bowles alone explain."

The two escaped from the presidential office as if they were about to receive an amnesty, leaving only Tenet and Powers standing in front of the president with nervous expressions.Mario raised his head, suddenly raised his voice, and roared angrily, "Is this the result you gave me? This is the long-awaited victory of the United States? You are a betrayal of freedom and the people, and a disgrace to the American government!" They couldn't even see the conspiracy of the Soviets, and they were being plotted at the most critical moment! Now the United States has completely failed in Turkey!"

Mario's sharp roar caused people in the corridor to stop, and the National Security Advisor and Secretary of Defense standing outside the door touched their noses in embarrassment, waiting for President Mario to end the presidential anger.

"With all due respect, President Mario. It's not that we are incompetent, but that the Soviets are too cunning." Director Tenet tried to defend himself, but was scolded by President Mario.

President Mario slammed his fist hard on the table, and the thick oak table made a dull impact sound.He pointed at Director Tenet and cursed fiercely, "I don't think the Soviet Union is incompetent, but you are too useless. Why can they see through our next move every time, but you have never been able to seize the opportunity? Eh? This Is it a shame? The entire U.S. government has not won once and a half times in a confrontation with the Soviet Union after 1991? It's as if we have never been able to win the strategic talent of the Soviet Union, and even the small-scale advantage that was opened before is instant Swallowed without a trace. Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on? Do we need a witch to come back and find out for us what's next for the Soviet Union?"

"But..." Chief of Staff Bowles has never seen President Mario make such a big fuss. He just wanted to advise, but was interrupted by President Mario succinctly.

"Shut up! Don't tell me but, I'm tired of your rhetoric!" President Mario slumped on the seat, covering his face with his hands, trying to relieve his fatigue, slowly Said, "Secretary Madeleine also brought us the final plan, I want to hear your opinions."

Both Director Tenet and Chief of Staff Bowles raised their spirits, wanting to hear what Secretary of State Madeleine's final plan is.

President Mario said, "The final plan is for the United States to intervene in the PKK riots through the CIA operating in northern Iraq and conduct a special war to help the Kurds deal with the Turkish army. I don't think Ocalan would have expected that he would be killed by the Soviet Union." Selling this situation, so now the U.S. should act with the PKK. Increase military aid to the PKK, at the expense of creating a divided Turkey."

"Then?" Director Tenet asked, but he secretly scolded Madeleine for setting such a trap for the CIA.

"Then it is to coerce General Mazier to cooperate with the United States and use the aircraft carrier battle group that has not withdrawn from the Aegean Sea to launch a secret operation. If possible, it is best to capture Mazier in Ankara when the political situation is unstable. General Yael. He announced that he cooperated with the terrorists of the PKK to overthrow the rule of the former Turkish President Demirel. The United States was invited by President Demirel to conduct a special operation. This excuse is enough. Anyway, it works Then we can fabricate as much evidence as we need."

For the United States, which advocates that human rights are above sovereignty, overthrowing the Maziel regime seems almost reasonable to them.It's just that the risks and difficulty of implementing this plan are far more difficult than they imagined.Director Tenet would not use the intelligence network he had operated in Sumo for many years to do such a dangerous thing.Tenet saw through the dangers of the plan, so he was no fool.

Moreover, Tenet maintained a hostile attitude towards Madeleine. After the negotiation failed, Madeleine immediately shifted all responsibility to herself, trying to make herself bear most of the responsibility for the failure of the negotiation.Tenet was very annoyed by this.Tenet immediately wove up reasons for rejecting Mario's proposal.

"No, we can't accept this proposal. Ms. Madeleine's consideration can be said to be a thigh-slapping proposal without thinking through the brain." Tenet retorted, "Let's not talk about how risky this plan is, but what we got in the end The profits far outweigh the risks. Most importantly, the Soviet Union will let us subvert their new allies before our eyes? Don't forget that Yanayev is a monster who can always guess where the United States will go next. Maybe Madeleine The lady's proposal is going down according to other people's plan. At that time, it will be a complete failure of the US-Turkey strategy."

"Stop the loss." Tenet gave his own suggestion, which was also a suggestion taken to avoid greater losses caused by the CIA.

"Withdraw from the Turkey dispute before we suffer a greater failure. Anyway, Romania and Bulgaria are already scheduled as NATO's anti-missile system users. The loss of a Turkey will not change the status quo, but once the United States takes the initiative to subvert the regime of other countries If we do this, will the Romanian and Bulgarian governments still trust us? So be patient for a while and wait until later to deal with Mazier slowly.”

"I didn't expect that the United States needs patience now." President Mario laughed at himself.

"Only patience can be the final winner, President Mario. The Soviet Union only won for a while." Tenet comforted.

Tenet's lifelike performance couldn't help but make the White House chief of staff look sideways. Of course, Bowles, who also agreed with Tenet's statement, also advised President Mario, "Yes, the plan proposed by Madeleine is too crazy. Now the United States can’t afford the slightest failure. It’s better to withdraw from the Turkey dispute in a decent way now. It can also accumulate strength for future counterattacks.”

President Mario nodded, unwilling but had to succumb to the reality of the Soviet Union's diplomatic victory.

"It can only be this way."

Chapter 544 New Allies

Not long after the meeting ended, the Turkish army launched a vigorous "clearance and suppression" operation. They focused their strikes on urban areas favored by intelligence, such as Sanliurfa, Mardin, and Cizre.Mazier controls the country's military.Therefore, it is possible to mobilize armored forces to turbulent areas to enforce martial law in the shortest possible time.

On the eve of the riots, the armored forces had begun martial law in the city and hunted down any PKK members who might cause harm to the city. On the third day after the meeting alone, the Turkish army had arrested more than nearly 2000 people in the eastern provinces.A large number of explosives and Kalashnikov rifles were searched and seized. Some people admitted that they planned to launch riots in various provinces of Turkey in a few days, using explosives to attack government buildings, and then raiding military camps to snatch firearms. The purpose of establishing an independent Kurdish state.

The originally massive PKK movement was suppressed by the Turkish army before it even started. In consideration of preserving the strength of the PKK, the PKK armed forces that were planning to fight the government forces for the city chose to withdraw.Withdrew to Syria and Iraq in order to preserve its strength.Quietly waiting for the next attack.

Of course, the Turkish report naturally omitted the small details that these plastic explosives and Kalashnikov rifles came from the Soviet Union.After receiving the information from the CIA, the high-level officials around Ocalan all evacuated from the country in southeastern Turkey and fled to Iraq.Ocalan also announced to sever all ties with the Moscow government. In other words, the interest transaction between the two parties has ended.Ocalan found a new backer, the CIA.

Tenet, who supported the PKK's overthrow of Maziyer's regime, naturally regarded the PKK as a pawn in long-term operation, and after being betrayed by Moscow, the PKK almost severed ties with the KGB.This is exactly what Tenet wants to see.For this reason, the Americans removed Ocalan, the leader of the PKK, from the CIA blacklist, and instead became a hero against religious doctrine.
