Chapter 1414 President Saddam understood what the United States meant

(Greatly add 58/100 for liwers)

"... Our negotiations with Kuwait broke down again. They asked us to repay their $16 billion in debt within a month. At the same time, they disagreed with our proposed reduction in oil production to increase the price of international oil prices and increase our ability to repay. …The oil between our country and Kuwait is originally the same oil vein. They have a lower terrain than ours, lower oil extraction costs, and greater profits... They use this opportunity to force us to enter the border agreement that has not yet been established. Sign! This is splitting our territory!"

Saddam’s televised speech does not exist in history.

But to occupy the commanding heights of public opinion, at least they invaded Kuwait when they were forced to do nothing.

"Since ancient times, Kuwait has been an indivisible territory of our Iraq. And Jaber has restricted our economic development for the benefit of their royal family, and hopes to use such persecution to split more of our territory. This way Things that cannot be tolerated!"

"A few months ago, I made it public to the world. I talked to the American ambassador, Ms. April Glaspi. Ms. Glaspi once again emphasized to me the attitude of the US Secretary of State, Mr. James Baker, saying that we are in the Middle East. Human affairs should be resolved by us Middle Easterners. The conflict between us and Kuwait is only an internal conflict. In this regard, the United States supports us in taking back the territories that have been divided..."

Once again, Saddam emphasized this point.

At this time, the ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspi, no longer served as the ambassador of Iraq, and did not work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

However, when Saddam made public such remarks by the US ambassador, the US government merely expressed silence.According to international practice, everyone knows that this is acquiescence. It can even be said that the Americans support Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait.

Although, it does not matter whether the Americans support it.

But this will give Americans no such good excuses to enter the Middle East.

"We will not tolerate that our country is always in a state of division, and we cannot tolerate our country being occupied by others. We do not deny our debt, but if we use this opportunity to force us to sign an unequal territorial sovereignty Conditions, all citizens should stand up and rise up to resist..."

Saddam’s speech lasted a long time, almost an hour.

In this, almost all insider trading has been exposed.

At this time in the United States, it was still at night. The president was awakened by this situation, and many other high-ranking officials were also sleepy.

However, when they heard the news, everyone became excited.

To show the world the strong muscles of the United States, at the same time, to ensure that the defense budget will not be reduced by Congress, to further test whether the Soviet Union still has the strength to continue, to increase the prestige of the president, to lay the foundation for re-election, and a medium-scale war , Especially wars that the United States can easily defeat, this is the most reasonable plan.

Iraq is the target chosen by the United States.

Iraq is the biggest obstacle to U.S. interests in the Middle East. At the same time, this government is very hostile to the U.S. for historical reasons, even if it was inextricably linked to the Iranians. The Soviets kept selling Iranian weapons and equipment, and the US Intelligence Agency helped. As Iraq commanded the war, at the same time, the Americans provided all kinds of advanced equipment to Iraq, and Saddam did not become obedient.

"Why did this happen like this? Although we hope there will be a war, the Iraqis have repeatedly said that we are supporting them in the war!" Bush was very angry.

This matter makes them a little embarrassed.

"Mr. President, we can hold a press conference to announce to the world that they have misunderstood our meaning. Moreover, we have signed a security cooperation agreement with the Kuwaiti royal family a long time ago, and we will ensure their national security. Help them maintain national territorial integrity..."

"I hope we have the best reason for sending troops!" Bush gritted his teeth.

A war, victory, and great benefits can make the president have a higher reputation and be re-elected.

At the same time, many of the military industry bosses supported by Bush are very dissatisfied with the possibility of the US Congress cutting funding. Their cheese is passive, and naturally they will not work.

The United States needs to show its strength to the world and at the same time be able to transfer the domestic contradictions caused by the huge fiscal deficit and the sluggish economic environment brought to the United States by decades of arms race.

The role of war is too great.

As long as Iraq is eliminated and Iran is blocked, there will no longer be any powerful country in the Middle East that can stop the United States.

Controlling the oil in the Middle East will control the economic development of the entire world.

Therefore, no matter what, whether it is Iraq or Kuwait, they are nothing but pawns of the US Middle East strategy.

The main purpose of the Americans is to enter the Middle East, control most of the world's oil resources, and then let the world develop and change according to their ideas.

At that time, the United States will become the number one power in the world, and no country can provoke it.

In the United States, in the early morning of the next morning, the spokesperson of the Office of the President of the United States held an emergency press conference. The spokesperson issued a statement to the world on behalf of the President: "What Ambassador April Glaspi did, said Everything is done strictly in accordance with the diplomatic rules set by the US government. During her tenure as the Iraqi ambassador, she tried her best to complete her work and performed very well. At the same time, she continued to mediate territorial disputes between Iraq and Kuwait and promoted them. Peace negotiations... She did not express to President Saddam Hussein that the United States agrees with Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. President Saddam’s statement was that he misunderstood the views of the United States government. As one of the permanent members of the UN, as a negative A responsible world power, hopes for world peace and the common development of all mankind..."

The shamelessness of the Americans made the whole world understand.

At the same time, the Americans disclosed that they signed a ten-year security cooperation agreement with the Kuwaiti royal family. If the Iraqi government does not withdraw its troops from Kuwait in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 748, the U.S. government will help maintain Kuwait’s national security. And territorial invasion.

At present, Iraq has completely occupied Kuwait, and the US government requires all Iraqi troops in Kuwait to withdraw, otherwise they will fulfill the responsibilities of the US government in accordance with the security agreement.

Of course, when the Americans did things, they naturally wanted to kidnap the world. On the day of Kuwait’s invasion, the United Nations Security Council held an emergency meeting in the evening, and it pushed for Resolution 748 that required Iraq to move from Kuwait.

Originally, in history, the request for the withdrawal of Iraq’s troops should have been Resolution 660, but before that, there were wars all over the world. During this time, the United Nations was meeting every day to discuss how to resolve these war issues.

France is very upset about the various wars in north-central Africa. They hope that the United Nations can pass resolutions to gradually solve these problems with peacekeeping forces and stabilize their back garden.

The same is true for the United Kingdom. The original war between the United Kingdom and Argentina was due to the loss of the Sheffield guided-missile destroyer and the Invincible aircraft carrier. The Americans did not agree to their decision to sanction Argentina and did not help.Now the Falklands War has started again, and the scale of the war has been escalating. Although Argentina does not have much ability to attack the British mainland, it is difficult to mobilize the British territory on a large scale at such a long distance.

Therefore, the United Kingdom also hoped to organize a coalition to fight Argentina together. This resolution was also blocked by the United States and the Soviet Union.

However, the United Nations agreed to the decision to impose economic sanctions and embargo on Argentina.

Gun smoke appeared everywhere in the world. The busiest one was the Secretary-General of the United Nations. He didn't even know why the war suddenly became widespread. Could this be the beginning of the Third World War?

Fortunately, there is no contradiction in the scope of power among several major powers, and the friction between the United States and the Soviet Union has become less.

Britain and France were all burned out by the fire in their back garden to ignore other countries.

The United States is now clearly preparing to join the Middle East.

When the Soviet Union voted, it directly abstained.

The only one that hasn't gotten into trouble is China. The Chinese have been developing the economy and making money quietly over the years. These things will certainly not fan the flames.

However, the attitude of the Chinese government is very painful.

Every time there is a war somewhere, when the Chinese government’s spokesperson holds a press conference, he hopes that the two warring parties will remain calm and restrained, and that the two sides can sit down and negotiate. There is no sense of nonsense...

However, this time, the Soviet Union is obviously happy to see that the Americans are about to hit a nail. Naturally, it is very clear how many weapons and equipment they have sold.

Under such circumstances, there is no opposition at all.

However, this time the United States hopes to form a United Nations army is not so easy. The United Kingdom does not participate in the war. Australia and Canada and other members of the Commonwealth will naturally not follow the Americans in the war. They maintain the honor of the queen and fight the Argentines It.

And France also ignores the Americans.

The United States did not help them before. They wanted to solve problems in Africa. Naturally, they had no extra energy to help the Americans fight Iraq.

The Americans were completely dumbfounded.

The idea of ​​organizing a large UN army simply did not happen.

Following them are only Japan, South Korea, and some countries around Iraq forming the United Nations army with the United States.
