Soviet Union 1991

Jonishkis's eyes swept over the people around him, and finally focused on Cole. He said unhurriedly, "Do you want to hear the conditions of the German Democratic Renaissance Party?"

Cole made a gesture of listening. Primakov's lips curved into a smile that couldn't be concealed. The counterattack of the German Democratic Ennahda Party finally began.

Madeleine noticed Primakov's expression, and she wanted to remind Cole to be careful, but it was too late. Jonishkis counterattacked very quickly.

"Our first request is that Germany be changed from a federation to a confederation. The confederation's presidium shall be composed of two people, each from East and West Germany, with a term of four years. In four years, each person will take turns to assume the position of chairman of the presidium for six months. The members of the Presidium are directly elected by the people, with members from West Germany elected by the Federal Republic of Germany and members from East Germany elected by the Presidium.

The corner of Cole's mouth twitched. This request was more severe than what he had made, and it completely changed Germany's political form. This means that Germany will no longer be a complete country, but only unified in name.

However, Jonishkis ignored the other party's reaction and continued to talk to himself.

"Then there is the need to amend the constitution. The new constitution should stipulate that the German Confederation is composed of two political entities: the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic; there is a 2-person presidium, composed of one representative from East and West Germany. The members of the presidium are directly elected by the two political entities. ”

The atmosphere at the scene became very awkward. Madeleine looked at Primakov for help, hoping that the other party would stand up and stop Jonishkis, but Primakov did not take any action. He looked at the other person's embarrassed face with his lips curled up, as if he wanted to tell them that all this was your own fault.

"The parliament adopts a bicameral system. It is composed of the House of Representatives and the House of Nationalities. The House of Representatives has 42 seats and is elected by half-half elections from East and West Germany. The House of Representatives has 1 chairman and 1 vice-chairman, respectively belonging to East and West Germany. The chairmanship is held by East and West Germany. Representatives take turns to serve, and the chairman and vice-chairman rotate every six months. The members of the House of Representatives are divided equally between East and West. The ten seats are composed of 60 representatives from East and West Germany. The members of the National Council are elected by East and West Germany in the same manner as the House of Representatives. At the same time, East and West Germany do not interfere in each other's internal affairs, and both East and West Germany have the right to act independently. The federal government unconditionally recognizes the various independent decisions of East and West Germany."

This is already a confederal country, which means that the German government can only maintain nominal unity, but in fact East Germany has gained great autonomy. Cole, whose face had turned pale, would never allow such a situation to occur.

"The final demand is the release of former East German leader Krenz, who is imprisoned in Berlin, and recognition of East Germany's correct place in history."

One of the purposes of releasing Krenz was that the German Democratic Ennahda Party needed to gather a group of cohesive political figures. Whether it was Lafontaine or Krenz, they were all within the scope of the Baath Party. Doing so is tantamount to touching Chancellor Kohl's skin. He particularly hated left-wing parties, especially those with communist-leaning politicians coming together under one party umbrella. In his view, every demand of Chonischkis is a provocation to the German Federal Constitution.

"When you say that, it means that our negotiations have completely broken down, right?" Cole crossed his arms and looked at Jonishkis's performance. The negotiations between the two parties are now in a precarious state. The tense atmosphere is likely to ruin this hard-won peace meeting.

Madeleine stood up and tried to lighten the atmosphere, "I think both West Germany and East Germany can take a step back and renegotiate, and there is no need to bring the matter to such a level. Don't you? In the end, everyone still has something to do. Room for negotiation.”

Only Primakov did not take any action, and East Germany's actions had always been expected by him. He believed that no matter what Cole did, the end result would be an unhappy one. What's more, the other party made such excessive demands.

"I have sworn to the people of East Germany that we must have the right to decide our own future. A Germany without refugees, without Qingzhen Temple, and without the oppression of the Federal German government. The conditions I proposed are for the people of East Germany." Conditions. The demands I made are the demands of the East German people. It is not me alone who is negotiating with you, Chancellor Kohl, but the entire East German people, who are representing their own future!"

Jonishkis put his hands on the table, stared at Cole sitting opposite, gritted his teeth and said, "We will never hand over our future to people like you, absolutely not! This is Our demands! Either agree or let Germany return to its state of division!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone understood that this negotiation would not be fruitful. Jonishkis's tough attitude has decided everything.

"I think there is no need to continue this negotiation." Cole shook his head and said with a sneer. He would never take a step back. He even further threatened Joniskis, "When the Bundeswehr liberates East Germany, please remember that it was your own misdeeds that destroyed East Germany."

Jonishkis countered, "Then please remember one sentence from Prime Minister Kohl: We will turn East Germany into your Moscow, your Stalingrad, and your Kursk! Even if only the last remaining thing is left in East Germany As a soldier, we will fight to the death. The East Germans will never take a step back!"

This meeting ended unhappily. Although Madeleine made a request to temporarily suspend the meeting, everyone knew that the hope of continuing the peace talks was already very slim. The only possibility is for both sides to break up and start a war again.

Before leaving the Capitol, Madeleine quickened her pace and took two steps forward to catch up with Primakov. She stared at the other party with a complicated look and said in a deep voice, "Advisor Primakov, you already knew there would be such an ending, didn't you? The Soviet Union had predicted it from the very beginning when we sat at the negotiating table. This negotiation will end in vain, so you will always play the role of an outsider at the negotiating table.”

Primakov said nothing, just smiled and listened to him continue.

"In other words, the German Democratic Renaissance Party did not take this negotiation to heart in the first place. They just wanted to test the attitude of the federal government. In any case, their ultimate goal is to establish a confederal country." Mader The further Lin talked, the clearer her thoughts became, and the more thoroughly she understood the Soviet conspiracy.

At first, she thought that the German Democratic Ennahda Party just wanted to represent the three states of East Germany in the political elections of the Federal Republic of Germany. Unexpectedly, the other party actually tried to amend the constitution and change the entire country's system. If there was no instigation from the Soviet Union behind what the Federal Republic of Germany did, no one would believe it.

"That's why the Soviet Union made a request to absolutely not interfere in Germany's internal affairs, because you are the masterminds of this change. Turning the Federal Republic of Germany into Confederate Germany was a very clever move."

After listening to Madeleine's chatter, Primakov frowned impatiently and said softly, "Are you done? I'll leave first as I have other things to do."

Primakov took two steps forward, then he stopped and turned back to Madeleine and said, "One more thing, even if it was planned by the Soviet Union, the series of changes in Germany since then have nothing to do with us. It doesn’t matter. The people of East Germany will eventually liberate Germany. This is a fact that cannot be changed. No matter how Cole tries to counterattack, he will ultimately end in failure.”

Madeleine looked at Primakov as if she were looking at an imposing red bear. The other party could feel the oppression from the Red Empire just by squinting his eyes, "I'm just looking forward to whether the frustrated Bundeswehr will rashly attack the East German army, or do they want to try to shake the Soviet armored forces?" strength?"

The sudden wind blew the corners of Primakov's clothes flying. He turned his head sideways and remained motionless, but Madeleine felt a frightening majesty.

Primakov chuckled and said slowly, "When the time comes, we will let them feel what the real red torrent is."
