Crossing A Small Country And Developing GDP To The First Place

In the reception room.

A middle-aged brown-haired man wearing a black suit and sitting on the sofa picked up the teacup placed aside and took a sip. He frowned slightly, but he still swallowed the tea in his mouth.

As soon as he put down the tea cup, Sankara walked into the reception room with a smile on his face.

Sankara walked up to the Soviet ambassador and gave him a big hug before he could stand up completely.

“Alkovitch, dear Davari, I’m so glad you came today!”

This is the truth. Sankara originally thought that the Soviet ambassador would not arrive until tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow.

“…”

Alekovich’s pupils shrank, and he noticed what Sankara called him.

Could this be expressing a political leaning?

Because of this title, Alexovich suddenly had a lot of guesses in his mind, so after Sankara let go of him, he replied:

“Mr. President is joking!”

“I think…we can’t be considered Davari, right? At most we can be considered friends, if Mr. President you are willing to be friends with us!”

“No!”

Sankara shook his head and objected:

“Maybe you don’t believe it now, but I think time will prove that we are the Davaris!”

After hearing Sankara’s answer, Alexovich confirmed his suspicion.

After a moment of silence.

He did not take up the topic again, but asked instead:

“Mr. President just came to power yesterday, and he found me today. Is there something very important?”

His words seemed to be asking Sankara what happened.

In fact, it is reminding Sankara——

You have just become the president of this country, and you haven’t even settled down yet. You come to us in such a hurry, so no matter what you want to say, the possibility of us reaching an agreement is not very high. high!

Sankara also heard the implication of Alexovich’s words.

But he didn’t care!

Because he believed that after he laid out his chips, Alekovich would definitely agree to his request.

“There is indeed something very important!”

Sankara nodded, then made a gesture to sit down, and then continued:

“I hope your country can provide our country with low-interest loans worth 10 billion rubles! Our country will use these 10 billion rubles…”

Before Sankara could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Alexovich.

“What!?”

As soon as his butt touched the sofa, Alekovich jumped up and looked at Sankara who was still sitting calmly on the sofa with a look of disbelief.

10 billion rubles!

In today’s era, especially after the Soviet Union just issued a new ruble not long ago, 10 billion rubles is almost equivalent to 11 billion US dollars in the international world!

If converted to North African CFA francs.

That’s 1.1 trillion North African CFA francs!

The fiscal revenue of the Republic of Burkina may not be this much in ten years.

But now, Sankara wants 10 billion rubles as soon as he opens his mouth! ?

“Mr. President, are you sure you just said 10 billion rubles? Not 10 billion North African CFA francs?”

Alekovich almost thought that he had heard wrongly, and couldn’t help but confirm.

“Of course ten billion rubles!”

Sankara replied calmly.

“…”

Alexovich was silent again. After a moment, the surprise on his face slowly dissipated and was replaced by a smile, but this smile was a bit fake, as if it was a routine.

“If Mr. President, you came to me today for this matter, then I think you don’t have to wait for me to report to you before I give you an answer. I can give you an answer now. This is impossible!”

After saying that, Alekovich was about to turn around and leave.

“Ten billion rubles is indeed not a small amount.”

Sankara nodded, but he was not anxious because Alexovich was about to leave. He still said calmly:

“But Mr. Ambassador doesn’t want to hear, what am I going to give in exchange for these 10 billion rubles?”

“…”

Alekovich is about to leave.

After hearing Sankara’s words, he was stunned for a moment.

After hesitating for a moment, he retracted his front foot, looked at Sankara again, and asked curiously:

“Then what is Mr. President going to do in exchange for this low-interest loan of 10 billion rubles?”

“If I am not mistaken, your country currently has at least 2 trillion North African francs in debt, right? Even if calculated at the lowest international interest rate of 4%, the debt to be repaid each year should have reached the limit of your country’s fiscal revenue, right? ”

“Could it be that Mr. President is not going to repay the 2 trillion debt?”

Yalikevich did not finish his last sentence, but the meaning he wanted to express was very clear.

Most of the debts borne by the Republic of Burkina Faso came from the Fourth French Republic.

If Sankara is not going to repay these debts, does it mean that Sankara is ready to turn to the Soviet Union and become a pawn of the Soviet Union in North Africa?

If Sankara is ready to do so, then Yalikevich believes that the Soviet high-level officials may consider a low-interest loan of 10 billion rubles!

“Mr. Ambassador, you are joking!”

Sankara shook his head and said:

“Our Republic of Burkina Faso is a reputable country… At least I, Sankara, am a reputable person! ”

“Although the debts we are carrying now are all historical issues, I am not going to default on them or default on them.”

Although he said so, Sankara didn’t think so in his heart.

However, before the French had stronger guns, he could only pinch his nose and accept the debts imposed on them by the French!

“Since Mr. President intends to continue to repay…”

As soon as Yalikovich was about to speak, he was interrupted by Sankara’s very brief words:

“We have 1.05 million tons of uranium ore!”

“????”

Yalikovich was stunned. After a long time, he came back to his senses, thinking that he had hallucinations again, and asked in an unbelievable tone:

“What did you just say?”

“I said, we have 1.05 million tons of proven uranium reserves in the Republic of Burkina! ”

Sankara replied with a smile, and then as if he remembered something, he continued to add:

“Although there are almost 600,000 tons of reserves under the control of the anti-government armed forces.”

“But I think, as long as your country is willing to provide this 10 billion ruble low-interest loan, then it is only a matter of time for us to take back these lands controlled by the anti-government armed forces!”

That’s right!

Although Sankara seized the power of the Republic of Burkina through a military coup, in fact, he did not control the entire territory of the Republic of Burkina.

At least one-third of the land is under the control of a dozen large and small anti-government armed forces.

This is not Sankara’s fault, nor is it a problem of previous presidents.

It is… a historical legacy!

To put it more clearly, it was caused by the Fourth French Republic. These anti-government armed forces are basically supported by them behind the scenes!

The purpose is to prevent the Republic of Burkina from escaping their control.

There was a president before because he wanted to get rid of the control of the Fourth French Republic.

Finally…

The anti-government armed forces cut off his head and hung it on a tree.
