Five hundred and fiftieth chapters war of words
The military expenditure problem was solved like this, and President Reagan also knew that in the face of Iraq's invasion, the United States had no choice at all! The United States could not sit and watch Iraq control the entire Middle East. By then, it would definitely be a nightmare for the United States!
"Since His Majesty the King agrees, we can proceed as soon as possible. Now, European troops are gathering, and we will quickly transport them to Saudi Arabia through ships." Joseph said: "Now, we only hope that Iraq can move slowly. After our army lands in Saudi Arabia, there will be enough guarantees. In order to achieve this goal, we also hope that you will cooperate and negotiate with Iraq."
Even if the troops in Pakistan are mobilized, it will take one or two days. If Iraq attacks Saudi Arabia now, the United States will still be helpless, so we have to buy time now!
Saudi Arabia is going to send people to negotiate with Iraq. You invaded Kuwait. What's going on? This is going to be strongly opposed by us. Please withdraw from Kuwait's territory immediately and you can sit at the negotiating table to discuss everything!
Use this method to paralyze the Iraqis, and in the dark, the US military will quickly land on Saudi Arabia and build the first line of defense!
In addition to negotiating in the Middle East, an emergency meeting is also being held at the United Nations.
"Iraq's blatant invasion of Kuwait is a blatant trampling on the international order and international norms! We will never look at Iraq's barbaric invasion of Kuwait, and Iraq's ambitions are definitely more than that!" At the UN meeting, the US representative first spoke: "We propose that the Security Council pass a resolution to impose economic sanctions on Iraq, and at the same time, authorize us to launch a military strike against Iraq!"
During the Cold War, the United Nations was just a fig leaf. Here, everyone was passionate about promoting their arguments and splashing stars, but a real agreement could not be reached.
For example, now, after the United States made a speech, the United Kingdom followed suit and condemned Iraq. Even France, which has always liked independence, expressed strong dissatisfaction with Iraq and supported the United Nations resolution to pass a crackdown on Iraq.
It’s very simple. European countries can see that after Iraq annexes Kuwait, plus Iran’s Khuzestan region, it already has 25% of the global oil production. If Saudi Arabia is annexed, it will have 45% of the global oil production! If the Soviet Union is added, it will be able to completely control global oil prices! At that time, the whole Europe will think of giving up oil and using other energy sources! This will seriously hit the European economy. Europe is now shaking under high oil prices. We must never let the conspiracy between Iraq and the Soviet Union succeed!
Unfortunately, in the United Nations, such a resolution will not be passed, because, as one of the five major hooligans, the Soviet Union naturally voted against it in its subsequent statement.
"In the agreement signed between Britain and the Ottoman Empire in 1913, it stipulated that Kuwait was an independent county in the Ottoman Empire. After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, Iraq was its successor. Therefore, Kuwait was originally Iraq's territory and could enjoy a high degree of self-control, but it had to obey the Iraqi government. It was only the interference of the abominable colonists at that time that complicated the problem here. The colonists of that year handed over Kuwait to a royal regime, not the people. And it was six years later that Iraq was independent because of the
The intervention of colonialists made Iraq ununified by force and became a historical problem. Now, Iraq is just solving historical problems." Soviet diplomats said colonialists at once, of course, saying that these were the tails left by the British people back then, and there was implicit irony. The British representative immediately stood up: "Kuwait was founded in 54 and Iraq was founded in 60 years. These were originally two countries! Moreover, Kuwait has been independent for so many years and has long been recognized by the whole world. Iraq is a barbaric act of invasion!"
"The Babylonian Empire has been established for more than two thousand years. Can the founding of the country have long thought that there is enough reason?" Soviet diplomats continued to make trouble, making the British so angry that they wanted to stand up and spit. In the conference room, this situation has happened more than once.
The representatives of China have never made any comments. In such meetings, China has always abstained from votes.
There was a lot of noise in the United Nations, and no effective agreement could be reached. And amid these noises, Iraq's actions continued to begin. On the second day of occupying Kuwait, Iraq officially announced that it would divide Kuwait into two, and divide a narrow area in the north into Basra Province in southern Iraq, and the rest of the area was Iraq's 19th administrative province, while Saddam's cousin Ali Hassan Majid was the first governor of Kuwait.
The Kuwaiti currency dinar was banned and all Iraqi dinars were used for settlement in Kuwait. At the same time, Kuwait's capital city was renamed Kadima City and served as the capital of the new administrative province. This was originally developed from the Port of Kadima, a trading port in the Ottoman Empire, and now it has restored its original name.
At the same time, Kuwait residents are also being relocated in large quantities. Originally, there are not many people in Kuwait, accounting for only 36% of the total population, and the rest are Palestinians, Egyptians, Indians, Pakistanis, etc. For Kuwaits in their country, Iraq is to move them to Khuzestan's province! At the same time, the population gap caused is supplemented by people from the Basra region in southern Iraq.
Saddam was very busy in Iraq, and here Andre finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"This guy, I'm just a short-sighted guy, just tinkering in Kuwait!" Andrey put down the information in his hand and said to the guard captain Varissi: "Prepare a plane for me immediately."
"Where are you going?" asked the captain of the guard.
"Where else can I go? Of course it's Baghdad!" Andre said: "This idiot, wasted all the time! When the Americans really landed in Saudi Arabia, this battle will be difficult to fight!"
Andrei couldn't bear it anymore and decided to go to Baghdad in person to urge Iraq to march into Saudi Arabia as soon as possible.
"But, is it safe to go like this?" Varisey asked.
