(Anyway, why do I have to write about Tatarstan, it's really that this country's status in country E is too special!)

＊＊＊＊

After completing the process of the independence referendum in full accordance with international law, the Uztarus began to celebrate the results of the referendum, and various celebrations were held throughout the country. But—

Things never go as smoothly as you think!

Tatarstan's independence was strongly blocked by an unexpected person!

Ye someone, who originally encouraged Tatarstan to fight for independence, jumped out at this time to prevent Tatarstan from becoming independent, and he even said that not an inch of the land of Eross was superfluous.

And refuse to recognize the independent status of the Tatarstan government!

"In the beginning, he was the one who wanted to encourage us to oppose the rule of the Soviet Union and fight for independence, and when he visited Kazan that year, he promised us that 'we can get as much sovereignty as we need.'" But we did as he said, and we fought with him for independence and caused the collapse of the Soviet Union, but we didn't expect that it was he who jumped out at the last moment to stop our independence. How can he talk without counting, and go back on his word?" said Utarus, angrily slapping the table angrily.

"Huh...... I only know one thing about politics! Treaties are meant to be torn up. Jia Lei said with no surprise with the teacup.

"Big brother, don't be angry first, how common is breaking a contract in politics! Even the contract signed in black and white, those people say that they will tear it up, let alone such a verbal promise?"

"No, they're deceiving people too much, we Tatars won't just leave it at that!" said Utarus, slapping the table hard.

"What if you don't want to do that?" asked Utars.

"Since he dares to play tricks on us, we don't have to give him face anymore! The signing of the federal treaty at the end of this month has already been decided by our Tatars, and we will never go. Utarus said with a sneer.

"Is it really good for us to do this? After all, the Treaty of the Federation to be signed on March 31 is an important treaty to clarify the relations between our self-governing states and the Russian Federation, and will it be a problem if we don't go?" asked Utars hesitantly.

"What's the problem? Our original purpose in Tatarstan was to break away from the rule of the people of country E and become a new, independent country! If we really signed this federal treaty, wouldn't we be one of the dozens of autonomous regions under country E again?" said Utaru with a sneer.

"Jia Lei, what do you think about this matter?" asked Utars suddenly.

"What does this matter have to do with me? As a foreigner, it is inconvenient for me to express my opinion on such a major matter that worries about the future of the Tatars!" Jia Lei hurriedly said.

"It's all right! There are no outsiders in the house now, just the three of us, you can talk about it! I promise your words won't get out. Utarus pressed his temples and said.

"It's really inconvenient for me to express my opinion on this kind of thing! However, I don't think you need to be in a hurry to solve such a big matter, I think you can wait and see. Jia Lei cautiously reminded.

"You're right, we really don't need to be in a hurry...... It's time to wait and see!" Wu Tatars heard Jia Lei say this, and suddenly reacted and said.

Political procrastination is a good one!

"What are you waiting for? If I were to say such a thing, we Tatars should explain it directly to the Eros! We are now an independent sovereign state, and we will no longer be at their mercy. Utarus said confidently.

"I think you can skip any of the events in country E, but it's better not to go head-to-head with them. In fact, you can wait for a while, and when other countries fight with country E, you can watch them compete with each other, and the fisherman will benefit!" Jia Lei said.

"That's a good idea! If someone really fights with Moscow, he won't be able to take care of us Tatars! Whatever conditions we put forward when the time comes, they will agree. Utars agreed.

"Well, I'll listen to you first, and if you hadn't persuaded me, I would have been going to the border with my troops to-morrow. Utarus said.

The Treaty of Confederation of State E is an important symbol of the national unity of State E.

On March 31, 1992, 86 of the 88 federal subjects under State E signed the Treaty of Union with the government of State E, which clarified the subordinate relationship between them and the Federation of E, and decided to establish a unified federal state similar to that of State M.

The relationship between the federal subjects under State E and the Government of State E is the same as the relationship between the states of State M and the Government of State M. But—

At that time, the two XX states of Tatarstan and Chechen-Ingushetia, which were subordinate to country E, refused to sign this federal treaty.

With regard to Tatarstan, the E-Federation, on the one hand, stabilized the domestic situation while purposefully dividing the separatist forces in Tatar that demanded independence, and on the other hand, satisfied some of the interests of the majority of the Tatar people.

Because of Tatarstan's geography and military strength, war is something that neither side wants to see.

But at this time, someone Ye in Moscow had another commotion that made Jia Lei stunned and couldn't calm down for a long time!

＊＊＊＊

May 1992

Chechnya was divided into two in 1992, with the western region of Ingushetia declaring its accession to the Eros' Confederation, and the remaining Chechen regions strongly demanding independence and even beginning to form their own armies.

At that time, the struggle between the two parties in Soviet Russia was heating up, and the entire territory of country E was in a period of dual government, and although the federation of E had just been established, it still adhered to the principle of maintaining the sovereignty of Eros.

"Do you think the people in Moscow have a hole in their heads? You have such a good attitude to reason with them, and they don't even pay attention to you! The Chechens almost hit the territory of country E, and the government of country E actually gave them money and weapons! Aren't they afraid to lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot?" Jia Lei asked in disbelief after seeing the report.

"Who knows what's going on! It may be that Moscow is in a hurry to win over Chechnya when it sees the Soviet government, so it is dizzy. I think they may really be making trouble for themselves this time, the Chechens can't farm or do business, only war is their only thing, country E gave them so many weapons? hehe...... Who knows what will happen in the future?" said Utaru with an eyebrow raised at Jia Lei.

At that time, the federal government was negotiating with the Chechens, and it did not know why the federal government blindly compromised.

They first recognized Dudayev's status as a general barrel, and then lifted the freeze on Chechen bank accounts, which were actually used under the pretext of facilitating the transfer of pensions to Chechens......

"Hmm...... What kind of excuse is this?" Jia Lei asked suspiciously.

"Who knows what the excuse is! You don't know what's more, Chechnya has been given the right to issue passports to its citizens! You know, we have made this request a long time ago, but the federal government has never agreed!" Utaru said angrily.

"Don't worry! It's not necessarily a good thing. Jia Lei comforted Utaru and said.

"Why is it not a good thing, do you know how many weapons the people of country E left for Chechnya?" said Utaru angrily.

In May 1992, the head of the State House of State E ordered the transfer of half of the weapons of the North Caucasus Military District to the Chechen forces, including even the most advanced T-80 tanks.

At that time, on the surface, half of the weapons were left, but in fact, 75%~95% of the weapons were left.

So how many of these weapons are there?

The Chechen rebels have received a full set of equipment capable of arming the two armies, including a large number of light and heavy weapons such as T-72 tanks, tactical missiles, rocket artillery, armored vehicles, and even dozens of warplanes have been seized by the Chechen rebels.

On May 25, 1992, Dudayev and the representative of the Russian Federation, Strogov, signed the Treaty on the Withdrawal of Troops and the Distribution of Property between the State of Chechnya and the Federation of Eros, according to which all federal administrative bodies were withdrawn from Chechnya.

In addition to nominally not being recognized, Eros has in fact fully recognized the independence of Chechnya, and Chechnya has acquired the character of a de facto independent state.

It stands to reason that Utarus should have been more angry when he heard this, but this time he was not angry at all. He was even a little happy, which Jia Lei, who had returned to Huaxia, could hear from the phone.

"Haha...... , who called the eross people like to go back on their word, and now they are suffering. Last month's economic survey report for the first quarter of country E only came out. By April this year, the price of consumer goods in Eross had risen 6.5 times compared to December last year!" Utaru said to Jia Lei on the phone.

"This price is rising too fast, right?" Jia Lei said in surprise.

I remember that on January 2, the first day of shock therapy, we sent people to Moscow stores to investigate, and the price of 500 grams of bread in state stores was raised from 0.60 to 2.63 roubles, and 1,000 grams of butter from 10 to 45 roubles. Overnight, the prices of all goods in Moscow increased several times to more than tenfold. So I'm not surprised at all to see this economic report!" Utaru said with a sneer.

"But I still think it's quite unexpected! I knew that I would order a plane now, so I will definitely save a lot of money!" Jia Lei pouted on the other side of the phone.

"Don't think about saving money! Everyone knows that the ruble has depreciated so much now, and the only demand made by the company that sells the plane is to pay in dollars! Even if you wait until now, the price of the money you spend on the plane will not change. Utarus said.

"Why hasn't it changed? The price has been reduced somewhat, and the plane, which originally cost 30 or 40 million US dollars, has now been reduced to 20 million US dollars a plane?" Jia Lei said on the other end of the phone.

"They lowered the price because there was really no money in China to buy food and supplies, so they sold these planes so cheaply and sold them to you so cheaply! Anyway, they didn't have a lot of planes! But they also put it forward, hoping that the first payment for the plane in May would be received, and as soon as the money arrived, you could drive the plane back. Utaru said to Jia Lei.

"May! Absolutely. Jia Lei nodded and said.

"Jia Lei has so much money, can you really take it out, do you want your uncle to lend you some?" asked Utaru worriedly.

"No, I'm not short of money now! You don't know, the reason why I'm in such a hurry to rush back to China is because the stocks I bought have gone up! Now I lack everything, but I don't lack money. Jia Lei looked at the big screen showing the stock price and said with a smile.

"How much can your stock go up if it goes up? This plane costs $20 million, how many shares do you have to sell to sell for that money?" asked Utarus worriedly.

"You're wrong, my stock is now going up more than ten times a day. Not to mention airplanes, I can afford even aircraft carriers now!" Jia Lei said with a smile.

"Then the price of your stock will rise as fast as the ruble depreciates! I really don't understand why, in a market economy, prices can rise and the ruble exchange rate can fall so fast. Utarus said worriedly.

"If you don't understand it, don't think about it! Anyway, you Tatarstan didn't participate in shock therapy this time, and no matter how much prices rise in Moscow, it doesn't matter much to you. Jia Lei said.

"Although we can maintain stability in our country, we also use rubles, and shock therapy still has an impact on the prices of our domestic goods in Tatarstan. Utarus said worriedly.
