Chapter 364: United Nations Security Council

"Okay, I see, I'll figure it out. "As the saying goes, with great power comes great responsibility, and now that things are bullying him, Ma Wei feels that it is necessary to teach this group of pirates a lesson. Let them know that Russian cargo ships are not so easy to rob.

However...... Just as Mavi was about to hang up the phone and ask the Russian military for help. I saw the CEO of the energy company on the other end of the phone, and suddenly received the news, and said to him again, "Boss! Boss! I made a mistake! It was not our company's oil tanker that was robbed! It was the Siberian Oil Company." Our oil tanker has just restored communication! They said that their equipment had just failed, so they have not been able to contact ......."

The CEO of the energy company said on the phone with great luck. Although it was their Russian oil tanker that was robbed, it is true that as long as it is not their own company, it is really a blessing in misfortune......

"Are you sure?" Mavi cannot fully expect from the Russians' ability to work, whether at the top or at the grassroots level. This is what he has deeply felt since he was reborn, because there are so many oolongs that he can't count them.

"Sure, boss! It was the Moscow oil tanker of the Siberian Oil Company that was robbed. So it seems that this thing has nothing to do with us. The president of the energy company said to Ma Wei happily. Fortunately, it was just a false alarm, otherwise the company would have suffered a lot of losses.

"This matter also has something to do with us, if we are not robbed today, it does not mean that we will not be robbed tomorrow. Ma Wei's vision is still quite long-term. With more and more Somali militants, engaged in the piracy industry. In the future, the oil tankers of their own company will be robbed sooner or later.

Rather than rejoicing now that it's not your turn, it's better to take precautions in advance. After all, the part of Somalia is a necessary sea area to enter and exit the Suez Canal, and if a merchant ship can escape once, it does not mean that it can escape a second or third time.

After listening to the words of the big boss, the president of the energy company, Alexander, said convincingly on the phone, "Yes, boss, you are right. ”

"Then let's do it first, hang up, and keep in touch if you have something. After Ma Wei finished speaking, he put down the satellite phone. Taking into account the recent development, the Guardian-class frigate developed was finalized at sea. He felt it might be necessary to test the power of the new frigate. By the way, you can also publicize it internationally.

So Mavi immediately dialed Admiral Negosv to see what kind of attitude the Russian government had towards Somali pirates. According to the memories of previous lives, this gang of thugs has been rampant at sea until 2006, when they were jointly encircled and suppressed by the United States and Russia.

Therefore, if the Russian government is not good, it will continue to tolerate it for about 4 years. After all, Russia is not the only country that has merchant ships passing through the waters of Somalia. So in terms of probability, it is not the Russians who suffer every time......

Moreover, the key to cracking down on Somali pirates is very difficult, and dozens of fleets must be dispatched to continuously carry out escort missions. Otherwise, as soon as the Russian Navy comes, all the pirates will smell the wind and slip away. When the Russian fleet withdrew, they began to rob merchant ships on a rampage again. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, just like psoriasis, recurring.

According to statistics, in the past 10 years, country Z, which jointly cracked down on Somali pirates, has sent a total of 31 escort formations and completed 1,198 batches of more than 6,600 escort missions. It can be seen that its task is so arduous that it is difficult for a single country to withstand such a protracted war that consumes huge sums of money.

"Haha, Mavi, why did you call all of a sudden?" General Negosev, as soon as he answered someone's phone, asked him familiarly.

"Admiral Negosv, I just received news that the tanker of the Siberian Oil Company has been robbed by Somali pirates?" said Mavi to Admiral Negosev.

"Well, yes, the bold militants in Somalia, our fleet has encircled and suppressed them in the first half of the year. I didn't expect it to come back so soon, it's really hateful!"

But this thing is like a weed, the wildfire can't be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows. After suppressing it for a while, it will disappear somewhat. When the limelight passes, it starts to be active again.

"Admiral Negosv, what does that mean that this time we will continue to send a fleet to fight Somali pirates?" asked Mavi tentatively. He also has no right to interfere in this kind of political situation, so it is difficult to ask too deeply.

"Almost, what, Mavi, what do you have in mind?" Admiral Negosev, who also knew someone's resourcefulness, knew that he wouldn't ask irrelevant questions.

"I can't talk about the idea, but I think that maybe we can propose a plan at the United Nations for multiple countries and multiple fleets to continue to encircle and suppress Somali pirates. After all, it is always an intermittent blow, and the symptoms are not cured. And over time, when Somali piracy grows to a certain scale, the threat to countries will be even greater. Ma Wei said foresightily on the phone.

With the eyes of those who have come before, he knows that if he does not face this problem seriously now, when the pirates grow, the frequency of attacks on merchant ships will be high. Every minute can threaten the oil tankers and cargo ships of his group.

Instead of scattered blows, it is better to concentrate forces and exterminate this unstable factor in the cradle. Don't wait until it's painful to start suppressing, it's a little too late.

"Multinational countries and multiple fleets, continue to encircle and suppress Somali pirates? I personally think this is a good proposal, Mavi, but will other countries be willing to join?" Admiral Negosev, knowing that his superiors must have made a strong response to the robbery of Somali pirates.

If you don't send a fleet to take back the tanker, rescue the crew, and kill him twice as many people, three times the number of people, then it is not a woolly bear, it is a bear. If there are other national fleets, willing to join the ranks, it will also reduce the pressure on the Russian Navy. The momentum is also even greater.

Russia has always had zero tolerance for terrorists. Even if the hostages are not rescued, all the terrorists must be killed, which is the so-called Russian-style rescue. Therefore, it is inevitable to send troops to fight Somali pirates this time. It's just that similar to what Ma Wei expected, it is a short-term act of revenge, and it is not considered in detail in the long term.

"It's up to the people!" Ma Wei was fortunate to be elected as a representative of this session of the United Nations Security Council and went to participate. Not long ago, he attended an emergency meeting of the United Nations, which is fundamentally different from the United Nations Security Council.
