Chapter 72 Homecoming
From the perspective of the global situation, Lan Ran is just a secondary battlefield for the battle for hegemony between China and the United States. Moreover, the "severe battleground" of the team has little impact on the world pattern, but almost everyone regards the "Cuban crisis" that has failed in the past year as one of the main causes of World War III.
Cuba's status in the Caribbean is very similar to that of the Philippines in Southeast Asia.
After the South China Sea War in the past year, the United States regarded the Philippines as its number one ally in Southeast Asia, and Singapore was also an ally of the United States. Malaysia and Thailand were quasi-ally of the United States. After the Peninsula War, the Philippines was upgraded to the United States' major ally in the Asia-Pacific region, with its status equal to Japan and Australia. After the Japanese War, the Philippines became the major ally of the United States on a global scale, and its status was directly in line with Britain. In order to ensure the security of the Philippines, the US authorities have taken various forms since the reunion year.
In such a way, the world, especially warns the Republic that any violations of the Philippines will trigger a world war. Not to mention, successive U.S. presidents will visit the Philippines in their first year after taking office, and emphasize unbreakable alliances during their visit. According to news released by the U.S. authorities in two years, before that, the United States assisted the Philippines in thwarting the military coup and assassination against the leaders of the Philippines, and forcing a country's intelligence agency to give up the idea of peaceful evolution in the Philippines.
Yan Ran, the "certain country" here is the Republic.
As mentioned earlier, the status of the Philippines is too important.
Although the Republic's authorities have never admitted that they have created military coups and assassinations in the Philippines and have repeatedly stated that they will not interfere in the Philippines' internal affairs. But everyone knows that the Republic's "MIS" will definitely not be able to make some achievements in the Philippines. In fact, two island years ago, the MIIS did formulate an action plan to plan a military coup in the Philippines and overthrow the pro-US regime. It also made early deployments. For example, in Libi Nian, as the outbreak of the Indian War became more and more obvious, the MIIS deployed three assassination teams to the Philippines, preparing to assassinate Fang concubine, the leader of the Philippines when necessary, so that the Philippines would no longer be worried about threats from the Philippines.
By the beginning of the years, when the Indian War was about to break out, the Military Intelligence Bureau made practical arrangements and formulated emergency plans for various possible situations, such as after the outbreak of the Indian War. If the Philippines creates unstable factors in Southeast Asia, assassination teams that have been deployed will eliminate many national leaders of the Philippines within 4 hours and create social unrest during the same period.
All in all, it is impossible for the Republic to not pay attention to the Philippines.
Relatively speaking, the United States pays more attention to Cuba than the Republic has paid more attention to the Philippines.
The problem is that just as the United States cannot tolerate the Republic creating unstable factors in the Philippines, the Republic cannot tolerate the United States creating unrest in Cuba.
Although in many people's eyes, the relationship between the Republic and Cuba is far less than that between the United States and the Philippines. After all, the Philippines was the first colony of the United States and the only colony in American history. After the Spanish-American War, Cuba was independent and did not become a colony of the United States. The historical connection between the Republic and Cuba was almost zero. Especially after the Republic implemented the reform policy, its relationship with Cuba became even more distant. But by the middle of the century, the relationship between the Republic and Cuba was definitely no worse than that of the United States leading the Philippines.
After Lawns was assassinated, the Republic's authorities stated that as an important ally of the Republic, the domestic situation in Cuba was related to the fundamental interests of the Republic.
This, attitude, is enough to prove the relationship between the Republic and Cuba.
In fact, as early as the time of the four, Casili's fifth visit to the Republic, Beijing signed the "Association and Mutual Aid Alliance Treaty" with Gu Weimin, the then head of state of the Republic, in Beijing, which determined the alliance relationship between Cuba and the Republic, and thus received huge aid from the Republic. After meeting the basic conditions, the Cuban authorities formally requested to join the intensive group and promised to carry out economic, political and military system reforms in accordance with the requirements of the group. Although according to the rules of the intensive group, any country that requests to join the alliance will obtain the reform time of the yin year after becoming an observer.
Only after completing all reforms and meeting all requirements for joining the alliance can one have the opportunity to become a formal member state. Therefore, it was not until the end of the short year, that is, after Cuba became an intensive group, that it was officially submitted to join the alliance. The deliberation work took at least 2 years. Therefore, at the beginning of the year, Cuba was still not a member of the intensive group, but according to the Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Aid Alliance signed by Cuba and the Republic. Cuba is already an ally of the Republic, and according to the Alliance Treaty signed by the Republic and the Member States of the intensive group, Cuba is a quasi-ally of many intensive group members, including Argentina.
In other words, Cuba is actually an ally of the Republic.
Under this circumstance, the Republic will absolutely not tolerate any "non-decisive" actions by the United States against Cuba.
Because at the Ming Dynasty, the Republic sent an aircraft carrier battle group to the Southern Atlantic Ocean on the name of a military visit and stationed in Argentina for more than a month, so by July, after Lawns was killed, the Republic not only announced that it was highly concerned about the situation in Cuba, but also immediately sent the aircraft carrier battle group that was operating in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. It also announced that it would assist Casilly in the appropriate time to return to China.
Affected by this, the American news media immediately went to share the same situation.
At that time, the American news media agreed that because the Republic wanted to control Cuba, Cuba became an important part of its strategic layout. And threatened the United States, the things that happened in Cuba were all directed by the Republic's intelligence agencies. In deletion, Casilly went to the Republic for medical treatment was a trap. Lawns, who played an important role in the turmoil, was just a tragic figure. From the beginning, he was the object of the Republic's intelligence agencies. The only value of his existence was to force Casilly to go to Beijing for medical treatment and give the Republic's intelligence agencies the opportunity to control the number one person in Cuba. As for what happened later, that is, Lawns was assassinated, it was the Republic's authorities who cleared the obstacles to help Casilly return to China.
All in all, in the eyes of the American news media, what happened in Cuba has nothing to do with the US authorities.
In fact, the real mastermind behind the scenes is the US intelligence agency headed by the four.
As mentioned earlier, the US intelligence stripping agency has been looking for opportunities to overthrow the Cuban regime. According to some information declassified later, the Fourth was using Lawns, but the Fourth did not come forward directly. Instead, it made Lawns believe that even if he launched a coup and overthrew the Casilly regime, Latin America and Europe would recognize that it would not affect Cuba's international status. More importantly, when the Fourth planned the coup, the intelligence departments of the Republic did not actively intervene or even took any preventive actions.
The problem is that in the American layout, Lawns is just a very small piece.
According to the information released later, the US intelligence agency planned to use Lawns to attack the Cuban Workers' Party, causing the Workers' Party to lose support, and thus set a foundation for other political parties to come to power. The key is here. It is definitely not an ordinary party. Under the basic political system of Cuba, no political party can replace the Workers' Party. In this way, the US authorities do not consider other methods, such as joining several small parties and dealing with the Workers' Party in a party alliance. In fact, this is exactly the method adopted by the four, that is, after Lawns forced Casilly away, the opposition parties would conduct demonstrations and marches and demand political reforms.
It was not until this time that the Republic took action.
Anyway, it seemed at the time that the Republican authorities would definitely want to use Cuba to restrain the United States.
On July 1st, Casilly, accompanied by Qian Xusheng, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic, returned to Havana on a diplomatic plane from the Republic, and said at the airport that he was still the leader of the Cuban Workers' Party.
What’s more interesting is that Casilly did not return to his residence in the suburbs, but went to the Republic’s Embassy in Havana.
At this time, the situation in Cuba was already very chaotic.
Although most Cubans still agree with Casili's status and recognize Casili as Cuba's number one leader, as a politician with physical factors, almost no one thinks that Casili can exercise the power of a national leader normally and it is impossible to lead Cuba. In this way, most Cubans believe that Cuba needs a leader who can lead the country through difficulties.
The question is here, what kind of leader is this?
Before this, almost everyone believed that Lawns was Casilly's successor. In any case, being able to replace Casilly as the head of state has proved Lawns' status. The problem is that Lawns forced the palace to be forced to do so, and it is also true that he died of assassination. What's more serious is that with Cuba's political system, no second person has Lawns' status and influence. In other words, with Lawns' end, it will be difficult for the Labor Party to launch a national influential leader in the short term. In fact, this is why Casilly had to return to Cuba in mid-July. After all, the Labor Party has no better choice except him.
As mentioned earlier, Cassili is too old and has a healthy body.
As an interim leader, Cassili is a good choice.
This is true. After he returned to China, the domestic situation in Cuba quickly stabilized. Although there was a conspiracy against Casili on July 19. According to news released by the Cuban authorities, Casili planned to go to visit retired veterans and canceled the trip because of warnings. The security department then found a remote-controlled bomb placed in the Veteran Welfare Center and arrested several suspects. But by the end of July, most Cuban political parties announced that they would accept the leadership of the Workers' Party headed by Casili, and Cuban society also restored normal order.
The problem is, everyone knows that Cassili can't keep working.
In early August, at the plenary meeting of the Workers' Party, Casilly proposed the election of successors.
Mu Yong doubted that this is definitely a very sensitive topic.
Although according to the news released by the Workers' Party, after going to the Republic for medical treatment, Casilly's condition had stabilized, and shrapnel in the skull were removed, eliminating the lesions, everyone knew that Casilly had collapsed, no longer the leader who repeatedly created miracles, but also an old man who was in a low spirit.
At this moment, there were also voices within the Cuban Workers' Party whether political reforms were needed.
In a sense, Cuba in the Casili era is actually imitating the republic in the Wang Yuanqing era, so many people compared Casili to Wang Yuanqing in Cuba.
As we all know, Wang Yuanqing's greatest achievement was not to defeat Japan and conquer it.
If the defeat of one's own roots and conquer India and eliminates two potential threats for the Republic, then political reform will lay the foundation for the Republic to challenge the United States. It can be said that without political reform, the technological advantages of the Republic after the efforts of the old year can at most maintain the prosperity of the year, and will be surpassed by the United States in the next few years. After all, the main factor in maintaining a country's steady development is not one or two advanced technologies, but a sound system society and a political system based on this foundation.
Although Cuba is not a republic and cannot become a world power like a republic, as a country with thousands of people, as long as the Cuban leaders are ambitions, they will implement political reforms like Wang Yuanqing when the country's economy develops to a certain extent.
From this level, Casili's role in Cuba is more like Ji Juguo than Wang Yuanqing.
You should know that the Cuban economy can take off after the year of the year, and in the old days, it has a close relationship with Casili's unremitting struggle from a relatively backward country to an economic power in Latin America based on per capita income. More importantly, the economic miracle created by Cuba has broken the "Latin American curse", that is, Latin American countries have the opportunity to become developed countries, and together with Argentina, triggered a "second wave of independence" among Latin American countries, that is, promoting economic development through correct national strategies. This impact is far beyond Cuba's own economic development.
Since the United States implemented the "InRoism", "Latin Americanization" has become a derogatory term. Almost all Latin American countries have not been able to get rid of the impact of widening gap between the rich and the poor in society, sluggish domestic consumption and stagnant economic development. In the final analysis, this is closely related to the United States' "Latin American strategy", because in the eyes of the US authorities, a developed Latin American region will never obey the command of the United States and will not be able to serve the interests of the United States.
If Argentina's economic rise is related to the basic strength of the country, after all, Argentina is a country with a vast territory, a large population, and rich resources. As long as its economic policies are accurate, it can become a developed country regardless of whether there is foreign support or not. Then the major achievements made by Cuba in its economy are enough to prove that, the correct strategic choice is more important than the correct economic policy.
In other words, Cuba's economic revitalization is enough to change the strategic position of many Latin American countries.
The problem is that political reform is absolutely indispensable among the main factors that promote Cuba's economic development.
In fact, since the Likou year, the Cuban authorities have begun to carry out political reforms, and they only acted without much action. They were very cautious when carrying out pilot projects, and the speed of progress was not very fast.
By the second half of the year, this problem became very sharp.
Almost all Cuban politicians believe that political reform has reached an urgent point.
When reporting related news, the special guest hired by Al Jazeera, former Minister of Defense Industry of Pakistan, mentioned that what happened in the first half of the year has proved that with the development of the economy, the Cuban people's desire and demand for political rights, especially democratic political systems, has exceeded the imagination of ordinary people. The main factor leading to Cuban social unrest is not the hostile forces from the outside, but the internal contradiction between the people's political needs and the relatively rigid political system. A very critical factor in Casilly's ability to quickly stabilize the situation after returning to China is that the Cuban people believe that this leader who led Cuba to create many miracles will definitely meet the people's political needs, and launch political reforms when economic construction has achieved certain achievements, bring Cuba into a new era.
The relationship between Al Jazeera and the Republic's authorities is enough to illustrate the Republic's
Spend.
In fact, in mid-August, the Republic's news media also mentioned in the report that Cuba's main problem is the contradiction between the relatively developed market economic system and the rigid political system. If Cuba wants to achieve greater achievements, it should make full use of the economic achievements it has made and promote political reforms.
The question is here, who will implement political reform?
You should know that Wang Yuanqing was the number one successor of Ji Jieguo, and received the support of a large number of senior leaders such as Zhao Rundong, Peng Maobang, and Pan Yunsheng. He established a lofty prestige through the Japanese War, and then promoted political reforms in the Republic.
It can be said that Casili is the only one who can carry out political reforms in Cuba.
The problem is that for an elderly man who is in his prime, it is definitely impossible to spend the past year carrying out political reforms like Wang Yuanqing who is in his early years.
For Casilly, every day seems extremely precious.
On August 10, after confirming the list of candidates for the General Secretary of the Workers' Party, Casilly's condition relapsed again.
That night, Casilly left Cuba on a hypersonic business plane provided by the Republic's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and went to the Republic for medical treatment again.
Obviously, this is definitely not a good thing for the social situation in Cuba that has just stabilized.
What's more serious is that Casilly's condition deteriorated rapidly.
On the 2nd of the month, Cassili died of illness in Beijing.
On the same day, the Cuban authorities announced a seven-day national condolence.
But everyone knows that the situation in Cuba is about to lose control. If you want to know what happens next, please log in to the gangster. There are more chapters, support the author. Support genuine reading
