Soviet Union 1991

Main text Chapter 537 Pulling out the nail

First update

When Shevardnadze got up and headed to Ankara, U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine set foot on Turkish soil not long after returning to Washington from her visit to Romania. 〈〔?(〈[〈A three-way meeting led by General Maziyel will be held in Ankara, the Turkish capital.

Before the visit, President Mario personally called Captain Hendrysk and ordered all ships of the Stanisk aircraft carrier battle group to immediately evacuate Turkish waters and stay on standby in the Greek Aegean Sea. President Mario's voice seemed a little urgent, "We have already negotiated with Turkey. Now the US aircraft carrier battle group must withdraw from Turkish waters as soon as possible, otherwise it will intensify the local situation."

"But your Excellency, this is the best time we can control..." Captain Hendrisk explained that he hoped to use this excellent opportunity to control the political situation in Turkey and make the Turkish government a puppet of the Americans. . However, due to political considerations, President Mario rejected Captain Hendrix's idea.

"No, we can't take any more risks. And now the Turkish army is still the actual controller of Turkey's political situation. If the overthrow of the army fails and Turkey falls into civil war, the Soviet Union will ultimately benefit. We have failed once and cannot take the risk again. Such risks should be resolved through diplomatic means.”

"But we can't just watch American allies lose power!" Captain Hendrisk said anxiously.

"Losing power? You are overthinking, Captain Hendrysk." Mario said coldly, "We just lost an ally, but this also means that we have another ally. Now Maziye General Mazier is probably very confused about which side to choose. Whether to choose the United States or the Soviet Union is an issue worthy of careful consideration. "

President Mario believes that the Turkish army is close to the West at heart, because the thousands of years of Russian fear and anti-Soviet tradition have made the Turkish army stand on the opposite side of the Soviet Union. He would not believe that General Maziyer would willingly become a so-called "ally" of the Soviet Union.

Now Mario hopes to win over the military government represented by Maziyer from the Soviet Union through diplomatic means, although this is an arduous and long process.

"We have already negotiated with General Maziel, and he agreed to withdraw the US aircraft carrier from the Turkish area. However, the aircraft carrier must be docked in the Aegean Sea so that the United States can intervene at any time if the situation changes suddenly. Do you understand?"

President Mario still holds a glimmer of hope for Türkiye, hoping to directly intervene with force when the situation becomes uncontrollable. And if the newly born Maziel regime is really pro-Western, Mario will need to consider changing to another card.

The first thing President Mario thought of was Öcalan, the leader of the PKK who has always been supported by Moscow. The United States can turn enemies into allies at any time based on its interests, and it can also turn allies into enemies. After cutting off contact with Captain Hendlisik, President Mario turned around and said to White House Chief of Staff Bowles, "What move should the United States take in the next Turkish political situation?"

"Use the CIA's relationship to form an alliance with the Turkish Workers' Party." Powers's answer was very brief, but it coincided with the idea of ​​​​the US president.

"The military has now stabilized the domestic situation. Once they turn towards the Soviet Union and become a Turkish-Soviet alliance, this will be the most significant blow to us." Powers pushed up his dove-egg-shaped glasses and stared at President Mario's face Said, "Moreover, no one dares to bet now whether Maziyel will favor Turkey or the Soviet Union, right? Judging from his wavering attitude, the US government still needs to add another card in its hand."

"Yes." President Mario sighed, looking worriedly at the calm night outside the White House window, expressing his anxiety, "Maziel has not taken action yet, the more it shows that he is hesitant in his heart. . The United States cannot tolerate this uncertainty. If Maziel is determined enough, he will already be an ally of the United States. "

"So we need the card of the PKK. Once Maziyel is not in the interest of the Americans, the CIA must do something. Castrate Maziyel's regime, if it can still incite the people to oppose the rule of the military government , then the Stanisk aircraft carrier battle group will threaten the Turkish government again and force the other party to step down.”

Mario calculated that Yanayev did not expect this, and it may also be the KGB's mistake. The previous military assistance turned the PKK into a tight string, and it was stuck in an embarrassing situation. The Soviet Union has been suppressing the PKK in the hope of playing this card at the most critical moment, but now, the US President hopes to play this card.

Mario sat down and said, "Now we have to let Director Tenet do something. Use the CIA's relationship to contact the PKK and provide military assistance to these people. Let them cause trouble in the eastern provinces of Turkey. Well, there is also Regarding the Turkish negotiations, we also have to put pressure on General Maziyel privately and let him know the consequences of going against the United States.”

Both the US and the Soviet Union wanted to turn the PKK into their own cards. When Maziyel leaned towards the US, the Soviet Union could play it out. When Maziyel leaned towards the Soviet Union, the US could play it out. And the PKK's biggest hope was to establish the Kurdish Crescent in eastern Turkey. The three parties had their own ulterior motives, and then they came together by coincidence.

After saying this, President Mario leaned back against the sand, exhausted, and rubbed his dry eyes. Since becoming the President of the United States, he has become much more haggard than before, and has deeply felt the sluggishness of having the will but not the strength. Facing his opponent Yanayev, who is five years younger than him, President Mario felt unprecedented frustration and despair.

The opponent who can always guess what he is thinking next is the unbeatable legend.

President Mario narrowed his eyes and said to himself, "Over the years, the US policy towards the Arab world has been to eradicate all dictators in the Islamic world, from Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria to Turkey now. We will never allow another regime to emerge that affects the political situation in the Middle East and the oil market."

Mario paused and continued.

"All Middle Eastern rulers who are not in the interests of the United States must die." (To be continued.)8
