Soviet Union 1991

The third update

It is not without reason that Yanayev tried to find a breakthrough from the opposition parties. Because vicious games and disorderly struggles continue to ferment in some countries, leading to political chaos.

The International Situation Research Office of the Central Committee of the Soviet Communist Party gave Yanayev a shocking report. In the past few years, the hidden dangers of vicious party disputes caused by multi-party rule are not only in Eastern Europe, but have even intensified into a global crisis.

The rise of radical and conservative forces in Europe has impacted the refugee policies of various countries and the process of European integration. The French National Front has joined forces with the Dutch Liberal Party, the Austrian Liberal Party, the Italian Northern League, the Belgian Flemish Interest Party, etc. to form a joint parliamentary group in the European Parliament, setting a precedent for extreme parties to establish a group in the European Parliament. After Kohl made the decision to allow refugees to enter Germany, it caused a strong backlash from the conservatives in the party. Merkel was forced to shrink back on related policies, but it still triggered East Germany. After winning the election, the Swiss People's Party advocated a stricter refugee policy and took a tougher stance on the European Union.

In South Asia, Pakistan's Justice Movement Party and other parties have continued to launch large-scale protests with the appeal of opposing family rule and breaking the existing system. In West Asia and North Africa, after the overthrow of the Gaddafi regime, Libya had two parliaments and two governments, with two houses and two governments competing against each other. The new government led by Ragbadi, which was invaded by the United States, was affected by the rise of extreme Islamist thoughts and factional struggles between the ruling and opposition parties.

Yemeni President Sali has fallen into a series of crises. Political power figure Hadi is trying to remove his position in the National People's Congress Party and eliminate his trusted forces, and the contradictions between the two sides have deepened. Lebanon's sectarian struggle has developed viciously, and the president has not been elected for more than half a year. In sub-Saharan Africa, the Kenyan opposition party sought to circumvent the existing rule of law framework and bring down the current government through large-scale protests, triggering vicious confrontation. Vice President Levy Mwanawasa tried to replace Frederick Chiluba in the Patriotic Front, and both sides had internal strife.

Of course, these crises have become opportunities in the face of Yanaev's one-party strongman politics. The United States advocates that multi-party competition can reduce dictatorship and ruling errors, but it does not tell the world that multi-party competition reduces the efficiency of national operation. Elections not only fail to bridge social differences, but solidify party struggles. Although the form of electoral democracy is generally observed and upheld in many countries, the positive role of elections and the resulting party rotation has been further weakened. Elections cannot produce capable and responsible ruling parties and leaders that satisfy the people. No matter which party comes to power, it cannot solve the real economic and social problems facing the country.

The opposition party is keen on confrontation in parliament and opposes every proposal of the ruling party, which seriously affects the government's administration. For example, the Republican Party of the United States led by Mario would rather the federal government shut down than make concessions to the Democratic Party. Some opposition parties tend to fight outside the system, organize large-scale demonstrations and protests at any time, call for strikes, strikes, road blockades, and even hinder the operation of government parties.

Only then did Yanayev realize the terrible consequences of the so-called butterfly effect. Just by making some small changes, the entire timeline has begun to become different. At least in the original history, the unrest of political parties in various countries in the world has not developed to the point it is today. Romania was the first breakthrough for the Soviet Union, but it would not be the last.

"Iscescu announced his resignation as the chairman of the Romanian Social Democratic Party, suspended and under court investigation. Well, this is a good start."

Moscow TV was broadcasting Iescu's resignation press conference. At this time, he was obviously very different from his previous gloomy appearance. His dejected appearance made people feel that he had retreated from the political arena. Obviously, the black material that brought him down played a key role.

Yanaev leaned back on the sofa and sorted out his thoughts. Now that the Social Democratic Party was leaderless, it was the opportunity for Voinea to stand up and command the heroes, and it was also the only opportunity to make him the chairman of the party.

Thinking of this, Yanaev called the Lubyanka office. He hoped to drop another heavy bomb on the Romanian political arena and completely disrupt the situation.

"Comrade Kryuchkov? I'm General Secretary Yanaev. Yes, I've noticed everything that's happened in Romania, and now I want to add fuel to the fire. Let Voinea put pressure on the government to hold a new presidential election."

"Demand a new election?" Kryuchkov questioned Yanaev's statement, "But can this work? If we really want to hold a new election, there will be no turning back."

Indeed, once this radical measure is implemented, unless the Social Democratic Party can overturn the political situation, it will be suppressed for a long time.

Yanaev is determined to succeed in the future of Romania's unrest. He explained, "The law cannot hold everyone responsible, Comrade Kryuchkov. When the dissatisfaction and resentment of the people meet the results of the election, that's when Bucharest falls into street politics."

Demands to punish corruption, demand to reduce the gap between the rich and the poor, and demand that the right to life of the people be guaranteed. The combination of claims that seem to have nothing to do with the election is the root cause of the outbreak of the contradiction crisis. The real situation is to let Voinea and his supporters take to the streets to incite the masses and put pressure on the Romanian government.

Either agree to the election, or we use the demonstration to stir up trouble. For the incumbent Constantinescu, this move is very tricky no matter how you look at it. Once the police force is dispatched to suppress it, it will fall into the trap designed by the KGB. In this way, they will have a legitimate reason to start riots in Bucharest and force Constantinescu to step down.

"As for how to control the people of Bucharest, I don't think I need to say more about this, right?" Yanaev lowered his voice, "This is your KGB's forte. In fact, you did a great job in the Scottish referendum and the division of Germany. I think you will be even better on the Romanian issue."

The current Soviet Union is an iron bucket that is impermeable. Whether it is a color revolution or a coup, foreign forces cannot penetrate it, but the chaotic Eastern Europe is like a sieve. Yanaev can easily take action and execute the targets one by one.

"Of course I know what to do. General Secretary Yanaev only needs to watch the news in a few days. You will see news about the unrest in the streets of Romania."

After hanging up Yanaev's phone, Kryuchkov hurriedly started a new plan. Moscow has called to urge this matter personally, which means that the general secretary has begun to pay attention to the situation in Romania. The last time he came to ask about it in person was when he was dealing with the crisis of the member states.

He sent a copy of the plan to the KGB office in Romania. When the agent got the plan, he immediately handed it to August who was in contact with Voinea.

"This is an expedited document sent by Moscow. The Kremlin can't wait any longer. They are eager for us to launch a political crisis in the shortest possible time."

A few thin pieces of paper, weighing only a few milligrams. But the weight behind them is extremely heavy. This is related to the change of a country's political situation, and even involves the future fate of the motherland. They can't be careless.

August took the document, flipped through it, and fell into deep thought. Obviously, the Kremlin asked them to solve the problem by using vicious party disputes as a breakthrough. But many times they cannot control and influence the direction of the political situation in other countries.

The key to everything fell on Voinea, who was the center of this political conspiracy. If the investment in him failed, then everything would be lost.

"Comrade August?"

The assistant standing beside him asked in a low voice, "Are you okay?"

August came back to his senses and waved to him, "I know, you go and do your work first."

What is coming cannot be avoided.

August put out the cigarette butt, then picked up the phone and dialed the familiar number.

"Hello, is this Senator Voinea? I am August, yes, there is something very important I want to discuss with you."

He took a deep breath and said slowly, "About putting pressure on the Constantinescu government to demand a re-election of the president."
