Soviet Union 1991

Third update

Maziyel was caught off guard by the Soviet Union's negative vote on the Security Council. He thought that at least one person on the Security Council would support Turkey's policy, but he did not expect that even Yanayev would vote no. As a result, Türkiye's idea of ​​​​hoping for external mediation in Cyprus' conflicts has completely gone bankrupt.

What makes him even more desperate is that the Cypriot Army, with the help of air raid cover and Greek support troops, is gradually regaining the lost northern Cyprus. Just a week later, Northern Cyprus began to urge Turkey to need new assistance. With the current aid, the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus will not be able to hold on for long.

Of course, the Cypriot army also suffered certain losses. Twelve tanks were lost in the recapture of the two cities of Morfu and Lefka. They were almost surrounded by overwhelming anti-tank missiles in Northern Cyprus.

Even if Maziel wants to support the Northern Cyprus regime, because the US aircraft carrier battle group has blocked the coastline, ordinary cargo ships cannot approach this island country shrouded in the clouds of war. There seemed to be only two ways to go before Maziel. Either surrender to NATO, surrender, and agree to deploy anti-missile systems domestically. Either expand the war and involve the United States and Greece in the dispute between the Aegean island countries.

Maziel faced the most difficult choice. Cyprus was being eroded bit by bit, but he could only watch the Turks on the island lose their home and be ruled by the Greeks again. Surrendering to Europe and the United States seems to be Maziel's only way out. He does not want to see everything Türkiye has worked so hard to create come to nothing.

"What? Morfu and Lefka have completely fallen?" Maziel could hardly believe his ears.

When Maziel heard the news, he fell on his chair almost unsteadily. He did not expect that the Northern Cyprus army would be completely defeated so quickly. It seems that Northern Cyprus' defeat is about to become a foregone conclusion.

"It seems that we can only restart negotiations with the Americans, because this time the Americans can no longer control us." Maziel covered his face and said angrily. Turkey is now in a situation where it has enemies on all sides. If it does not find a way out, Turkey led by Maziyel will be completely isolated and helpless.

Also on Mario's side, he is also waiting for Maziel's next step. So far, the United States has cut off all escape routes for Türkiye, and is waiting for the other party to surrender obediently and restart the negotiation project.

Maziel wants to fight the US government? Still a little too tender. The United States has countless ways to defeat Turkey.

"The probability of Maziel not surrendering is 20%, and the probability of surrendering is about 80%. We have blocked all his escape routes. In other words, Maziel has no chance of surrendering. Lu Ke escaped." Chief of Staff Bowers said excitedly, "The next step is to make Maziel surrender obediently, they have no chance."

"Really?" President Mario replied with some uncertainty, "Turkey has not made up its mind to withdraw from NATO, and if it withdraws from NATO, then the island of Cyprus will completely fall into the hands of Greece. This is simply a nightmare for Turkey ”

"This is all the result of Turkey's own actions." Powers said with a smile. "Who said he chose the Soviet Union instead of us. If Maziyel had chosen the United States, at least there wouldn't be so many people now. Something happened."

President Mario thought quietly and said thoughtfully, "Well. It's time to slow down the pace of the Cypriot army's offensive, notify the British Air Force to suspend air strikes on Cyprus, and let the Cypriot and Turkish regimes start a tug of war. "

Attacking Northern Cyprus is like a game of cat and mouse for the United States, and his every move affects the future of the entire Cyprus.

"Why? The current situation is very good. We can even help Cyprus take over the entire northern power in one go and let Cyprus unify the country. In this way, even Turkey will have a headache." Powers asked with some confusion. No one wants to fail at the last minute.

"That's why we can't let Cyprus win too quickly." President Mario explained, "If Cyprus wins, we will never be able to negotiate with Turkey. Because Northern Cyprus is Turkey's last bottom line. No more They are equivalent to the breakup of Turkey."

Powers suddenly realized that this conflict was just a cover-up for the United States to win Turkey back into the embrace of the Western world. In fact, he also hoped to maintain Cyprus in this state of neither independence nor unity.

"Cyprus, it turns out that the real intention is here," Powers murmured to himself. "This plan is really too subtle, but isn't President Mario worried that Turkey will eventually kill the whole thing?"

Mario replied, "Of course not worried. As long as Turkey still has a way out, he will not do something stupid like withdrawing from NATO. And now that it is slowing down its attack on the northern regime, isn't the United States creating a way out for Turkey? Of course we It also severely damaged Turkey’s prestige and lost two important cities. This is the price they have to pay.”

"I hope the next anti-missile system negotiations will go smoothly. After all, Turkey is one of our earliest customers. If Maziyel agrees, the Black Sea anti-missile system defense circle can be officially constructed. At that time, the Soviet Union will face a very troublesome situation." President Mario sat in front of the phone, hoping that the hotline from Ankara would ring.

"And hit him hard on the issue of the Turkish Straits." Powers said with a smile.

As soon as the voice fell, a harsh phone ring rang. The hotline from Turkey was urging Mario to pick up the phone. Mario did not answer the phone immediately, but smiled at Chief of Staff Powers, "It seems that General Maziyel can still see the situation clearly."

Mario picked up the phone calmly and said hello softly.

The voice on the other end of the phone seemed a little hurried. He said in a hoarse voice, "I am President Maziyel, is this President Mario?"

Maziyel's simultaneous translation was very fast, so there was no delay in the communication between Mario and Maziyel. Mario held the microphone and answered respectfully to the person on the other end.

"Yes, I am President Mario. General Maziel, it's nice to meet you again." To be continued.
