USSR 1991

"Polarized poverty is not the socialism we want!"

The hall has become silent, this is not a violent attack, this is a challenge and a declaration of war.At this time, the reporter thought of what happened when the police suppressed the people before. Perhaps those were not simple spontaneous actions, but premeditated political actions.

"So, the Social Democratic Party once again announced that we will not recognize the ruling party of the Democratic Agreement elected in the general election, and we will go to the parliament for re-election! A political party that brutally suppresses the people is absolutely unworthy of sitting in the position of president. The people will Despotic tyrant dragged from that position!"

As soon as this remark came out, the reporters at the press conference had already described it with a shocked expression, but looked at Voinea with the eyes of a madman.

Crazy, downright crazy, re-election?This is to flagrantly provoke Romania's political system and even deny the authority of the Constitution.

However, the lunatic Voinea is full of confidence, and he is ready to challenge Romania's political authority.The Soviet Union is his life-saving card.As long as they have their support behind them, it will only be a matter of time before Romania is settled.

The overwhelming publicity almost overwhelmed Constantinescu, and Voinea's speech also made him, who was at the cusp of public opinion, once again the focus of media bombardment.The title of tyrant and executioner seems to be imprinted in his bones and will never leave him.

But what worried Constantinescu even more was the statement from the Soviet Union.In response to the recent political turmoil in Romania, Yanayev made a very rare statement in the Kremlin.

"We will support the struggle between Voinea and the Romanian government, and we will even support the actions of the people. When a political party is in disorder, the people have the power to overthrow them and establish a new regime. Natural human rights should not It's just a slogan without substance, and it should act without fear of power!"

This slogan was a shot in the arm, and instantly gave the Romanian Social Democratic Party hope, and those swaying left and right guys suddenly realized why Voinea dared to challenge the current president with a tough attitude.

It turns out that they have long had secret ties with the Soviet Union behind their backs. After Yanayev's speech, certain political forces secretly moved closer to the Social Democratic Party.

However, this statement seemed to bring the relationship between Romania and the Soviet Union to a freezing point.Next, the Soviet embassy in Romania will encounter overwhelming protests, and even threaten to cut off economic exchanges between Romania and the Soviet Union, but all this has become irrelevant.

There are not many important economic exchanges between the Soviet Union and Romania, so Yanayev is not afraid of threats from the other side.

As for the requirement to become a member of NATO?Still have to see if Konstantinescu's right-wing regime can survive, Voinea is a supporter of Sovietism.As long as Romania is not a member of NATO, there is hope for Yanayev's first step in bringing the Iron Curtain back to Eastern Europe.

"Damn, damn, damn." Konstantinescu was devastated.The Soviet Union, which broke out halfway, has muddied the entire political situation. Now it is estimated that all forces in Romania are eyeing the struggle between the Democratic Conference and the Social Democratic Party.

Whoever wins will affect the direction of Romania's political situation for a long time to come.Because they represent the struggle between right-wing and left-wing forces respectively.

Constantinescu needs to add chips. He must firmly control the Romanian army in his own hands and beware of being used by the opponent.

He is going to leave for the Romanian Ministry of Defense to find Minister of Defense Stenlescu, and now it is time for him to express his position.

As long as the Romanian army is there, he will never panic.

Chapter 789 Returning to Eastern Europe Strategy

"First Germany, now Romania, who will be next?"

President Mario slapped a thick stack of documents on the chest of CIA Director Tenet, pointed at him and cursed: "Has the CIA's funds been spent on women's bellies for so many years? Why is there no slightest concern about the KGB's movements?" Perceived? Tell me? Why?"

Tenet stood calmly, accepting the scolding from President Mario, without saying a word to defend himself.Not long ago, he submitted a report to the top White House, stating that the KGB will focus on East Germany for a long period of time—because this is the territory they worked so hard to seize, and it needs to be digested slowly. and operating.It is impossible to expand the sphere of influence to farther places in a short period of time.

At that time, he even assured the intelligence committee that the Soviet Union would suspend all offensives and win a breathing space for Europe.But with the outbreak of demonstrations in Romania, all conclusions have been overturned.

Of course, these well-founded analyzes of the European situation have now become a joke, and the KGB is like a greedy behemoth constantly looking for opportunities to encroach on the sphere of influence of Europe.The development of the German Democratic Baath Party they support is even more terrifying, and it does not need the deliberate support of the Soviet Union at all.The strong appeal formed by work and bread has made them a super political party in a short period of time that no one party can compete alone.

This is definitely a great irony.

In advance, it was believed that Eastern Europe was safe for the time being, and it was suggested that it is no longer necessary to arrange the intelligence agencies to guard against death within the scope of the Soviet Autonomous Prefecture, but now it seems that everything has become exaggerated and ridiculous.Fragmented information from Bucharest and Soviet attitudes towards Romania were their only sources of intelligence.

"The strategic advantage we have finally obtained is being dismissed little by little. I don't care about the idiots in Western Europe. However, the United States has an obligation and must stop the pace of the Soviet Union's westward expansion and strangle them in the cold Siberian wasteland. Otherwise We will return to the red pressure of the 70s and [-]s, with former allies becoming enemies of capitalism one by one."

The strikes and demonstrations in Bucharest, as well as the slogans of the Social Democratic Party, are the focus of strict prevention of deadlock.They don't want Eastern European countries to dramatically turn into red countries again, and they don't want to see the strategic advantages they have gained over the past few decades ruined in their own hands. At least before President Mario resigns and throws these messes to others, he needs to stop it further. The crazy expansion of the Soviet Union.

Director Tenet pushed his glasses, his voice was still indifferent, and he said slowly, "I believe our agents will not miss the implementation of this plan, otherwise this would be nothing more than a top priority for the CIA. It’s a great shame to exchange blood.” He pointed to various places marked with red marks in the scattered pictures, as well as social incidents that may have something to do with the Soviet Union, and continued, “But this time, whether it’s me, It is still your Excellency the President, I have to admit that the Soviet Vice President who has been unknown before has left us with a big trouble; I am afraid that now we have to face an opponent who is extremely cunning..."

"He never played his cards according to common sense, so the plan we specified based on previous experience is equivalent to invalid. The current European political situation is also scolding and complaining. This is not our fault, because we never know what he will do. Where is the next step, but since we have started in Romania, we should also disrupt and counterattack. The leader of a country can never remain awake and fighting high. Once there is a flaw, it will be our agent Constance The period when Dinescu fought back."

"So how do you clean up the current chaos in Romania?" President Mario asked dissatisfied. Losing Germany is distressing, and losing Eastern Europe is a disaster.Who wants to see red alert return to Europe?

"No need to clean up." Tenet said indifferently, "Konstantinescu is fully capable of putting out this growing fire. In fact, he knows how to deal with the turmoil that should happen."

Tenet moved his finger to the movement of the Romanian army, trying to get President Mario to ease his inner tension, "President Mario, look, this is the statement released by the Romanian military yesterday. Minister of Defense Sten Lescu strongly condemned the party that initiated the unrest and urged all parties to return to their original positions. Accept the struggle."

Tenet said with a sneer, "It seems that Constantinescu has approached the army and forced them to issue a statement. Express his position. This guy still has a brain at critical moments. As long as the army is not in chaos, those demonstrations No matter how many people rebel, there will be no waves."

Just like when the communist parties in the Eastern European countries were a little bit more cruel, shut down the TV stations, suppressed the demonstrators, and blocked the outside news, they would definitely be able to calm down within two months.However, there are a group of people inside who are thinking of plotting to change the sky, and even their own people are on the opposite side, so how can there be any chance of winning?

"If you really want to intervene, I am afraid that the CIA will not be able to do anything. After all, it is Constantinescu who needs to be supported, which is already the content of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries. This is something that is taboo in every country. We Such a request, the other party will definitely refuse. Because they don't want to be caught with excuses. Especially at such a critical moment, they can't make mistakes."

Tenet tactfully expressed his refusal to President Mario, hoping that he would know the current situation of the CIA.It's not that they don't want to get involved in the muddy waters of Romania, but that it's completely useless for them to get involved.

"Well, I admit that it was a little difficult for others before."

President Mario sighed, convinced by Tenet.

"But the current situation in Romania is not simple. If it is left alone, it may become an introduction, triggering a general turmoil."

Mario's prediction of Yanayev has always been very accurate. He always thinks about the worst, and of course things often develop towards the worst.

"Believe me, after we free up our hands on the German issue, we will focus on Europe and repair the Eastern European line of defense." Tenet still made a promise to the President in front of him, " We promise that after the matter is resolved, the expansion of the KGB's power will be contained!"

7 Chapter Ninety

Although the KGB has been reminding Voinea to take the lead in taking Stenculescu before, to prepare for possible turmoil in the future.However, the other party did not listen to the KGB's advice, and insisted on inciting the people first, which led to the current situation that cannot be lost.

Constantinescu has won the support of the Romanian Minister of Defense, and then he can unscrupulously mobilize all the riot police in Bucharest to suppress the people.He wants to suppress the flames that are stirred up before they become a prairie fire.No matter how powerful Voinea's use of the media is to create momentum, it is the Romanian armed forces that have absolute repression. Guns and bullets represent the initiative.

The burning flames on the street, the rioting crowd, the sound of cold iron rods touching flesh and blood, the moans and cries of pain, the people chanting long live freedom, and the warnings from the tweeters formed the chaotic situation on the streets of Bucharest.

That's what Voinea wants to see, chaos and disorder.He can rely on cynical lies, and shameless bribes.Relying on cobblestones, sharpened iron bars, and holding up slogans and slogans.Mobs waving freedom banners in the streets of Bucharest are ready to shed Romanian blood once again.

All this bloody struggle will not end until Constantinescu surrenders power.

Voinea hides behind the scenes and manipulates everything, and his contest with Constantinescu enters a critical moment.Now the military's position is extremely important, even more important than the secret support behind the KGB.

As the former commander-in-chief of the Ministry of War, it was time for Voinea to talk to his old friend.

He directly visited to find Stenculescu. As the current Romanian Minister of Defense, the other party did not shy away from himself.Instead, open the door to meet each other directly.This made Voinea very surprised, and realized that he had an opportunity.

So Voinea didn't intend to be polite, and said straight to the point, "Everyone has seen what happened on the streets of Romania. Now we need to rebuild order, and the decision of the army is very important, so I came to the door this time to know Minister Tenculescu's decision."

"My decision?" Stenculescu chuckled softly. "What other decision do I have? Before you, President Constantinescu approached me to force the military to take a stand. You know, although we Ambiguity on this matter, but at critical moments, the army will still set an example. My old friend, you should not be involved in this political conspiracy, no matter who is behind you, the outcome will be different may slide into an unpredictable abyss."

Stenculescu looked at the old friend in front of him with some pity. It is impossible for the top military officials to bet all their wealth on him.

But Voinea did not show the slightest panic. He still bargained calmly with Stenculescu, "So what can Constantinescu promise you? He probably didn't promise you anything, right? Because That's what the military is supposed to do."

"But I am different. As long as you promise not to take action, then after Constantinescu's regime is overthrown, I can promote you from the position of Minister of Defense to the position of Vice President of Romania."

Stenculescu narrowed his eyes, as if considering the risks and benefits of Voinea's words.The position of Minister of Defense is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.His Adam's apple rolled, obviously tempted by Voinea's conditions.Although seemingly indifferent, Voinea caught everything in his eyes.

But he dare not bet that although the Social Democratic Party is the number one political party in Romania, it does not take any advantage in this matter.A politician's promises are as unreliable as a bitch's chastity and an actor's feelings. He is not so stupid as to bet his future and his head on this coup d'état.

"You don't want to know why Is Escu suddenly stepped down. It is very rare for the Social Democratic Party to pass the motion to nominate me as the party chairman in the shortest time? You don't want to know why I will submit to the newly elected Did Constantinescu attack without any fear? Did Minister Stenculescu never consider, where did my courage come from?"
