Since the end of World War II and the beginning of the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union, the intelligence organizations of various countries, mainly the United States and the Soviet Union, have never stopped fighting on the underground hidden front.

However, Hafez Assad now has a feeling that even during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the secret war between the United States and the Soviet Union does not seem to be as fierce as it was in Aleppo this time.

As the conflict between the two sides intensified, Syria's intelligence agencies found that not only the United States and the Soviet Union were investing in strength, but also intelligence personnel from Britain, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, and other countries were involved in fighting their own battles.

What kind of strategic-level scientific and technological intelligence can attract so many big and powerful countries to compete for it?

Out of intense curiosity, Hafez al-Assad ordered all Syrian intelligence agents to be dispatched to find out what was really going on in Aleppo.

Just last night, Syria's intelligence agencies finally figured out that it was the OUEC that had given Soviet intelligence officers a copy of the voiceprint signature of a U.S. "Lobinji"-class attack nuclear submarine, and that the U.S. government was doing whatever it took to prevent Soviet intelligence officers from bringing this information back to the Soviet Union.

Hafez al-Assad immediately understood why the CIA was so aggressive after figuring out how important the voiceprint signature of the Soviets' Lobinji-class attack nuclear submarine was through the Syrian admirals.

After careful consideration, Hafez al-Assad knew that such cutting-edge military science and technology intelligence could not be brought into Syria's possession. Although he also aspires to get it, thereby removing the threat of US attack nuclear submarines to Syria. However, Hafez Assad knows better in his heart that if the voiceprint signature of this "Lobinji" class attack nuclear submarine is really obtained by Syria, it will definitely bring disaster to the Assad family!

Although the United States did not dare to go to war against the Soviet Union because of this information, the United States absolutely dared to use war means against Syria to regain the scientific and technological information belonging to the United States.

Strategic-grade cutting-edge scientific and technological intelligence like this. For any small country, what it really gets is not only not a blessing, but a curse!

This world has always been a world where big and powerful countries have the final say. A developing country in the third world, such as Syria, has no reason or any kilometres to speak of in the face of world hegemons such as the United States and the Soviet Union. Unless, Syria can become as powerful as the Eastern Union.

"Farit. Regarding the incident in Aleppo, do you say, do we turn a blind eye and pretend to be deaf and dumb, or is it necessary to lodge a strong protest to the United Nations?" Hafez al-Assad asked slowly, looking at his younger brother Farit al-Assad, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, with a very calm face.

Although his brother's expression and tone were calm, Efarit al-Assad's knowledge of his own brother meant that he knew that his brother was absolutely angry at this moment.

"The five major permanent members of the UN Security Council, including Huaxia, are involved in the contest over the Aleppo incident, and we can be regarded as protesting to the UN. It can only be self-inflicted humiliation and let others see our jokes. Farit Asat shook his head with a wry smile and said: "A weak country has never had diplomacy, and the only thing we can do is to use our strength as much as possible to minimize the casualties of innocent people." ”

"Are we just going to allow the spy organizations of these countries to wantonly blow up our buildings and kill and injure our citizens?" Hafez Assad clenched his fists with both hands, gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Shouldn't these countries compensate us for the damage caused to us in property and people?!"

"Battles on the intelligence front. No country or government has ever come to the table and openly acknowledged it. Farit Assad sighed and said, "If, I mean if." If we go all out to assist the Soviet side, and when the KGB people succeed in bringing this information back to the Soviet Union, perhaps, we may still be able to get some kind of compensation from the Soviet Union. But the problem is that once we do, the Americans will definitely get us in trouble afterwards. ”

"I'm not reconciled! I'm not reconciled!" Hafez Assad finally couldn't help but break out. He stood up and shook his fist into the air, roaring like thunder: "Why?!Why can these Caucasians wantonly trample on the dignity of a sovereign state in our country?!Why can we only choose to swallow our anger? Why?!"

"My dear brother, it's simple, because we're too weak!" said Farit Assad as he stood up, holding back the anger in his heart. Taking a deep breath, "If we can also be as strong as the Eastern Union, no country would dare to ignore our sovereignty and dignity so much!"

Hafez Assad looked at the world map hanging on the opposite wall and muttered to himself: "I really envy the young head of the Eastern Union, how can he develop such a backward country in the world as Myanmar into a new generation of powerful countries that even the United States and the Soviet Union look at in less than ten years!"

"Perhaps, this is the power of science and technology!" Farit Assad also sighed with envy in his eyes: "Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and this is a truth that the youngest head of state in the world of the Eastern Union often says! It is only with the power of science and technology that the Israelis dare to occupy Jerusalem and challenge the entire Arab world." ”

"Science and technology, Syria needs high technology!" Hafez Assad turned his face to look at Farit Assad with a bright eye, and said in a particularly solemn tone: "Falit, you say, if we follow Saddam's example and change the international settlement currency unit of Syria's oil transactions to the Asian dollar, is it possible for us to import high technology from the Eastern Union?"

"According to credible information from our intelligence officers who have just returned from West Germany, the Eastern Union and West Germany have reached an agreement to jointly invest and build factories in Iraq. Farit al-Assad said thoughtfully: "I think this is probably the reward given by the young head of the Eastern Union to Iraq's policy of the Asian dollar for oil!"

"What type of factories do the East Union and West Germany plan to invest in Iraq?" asked Hafez Assad contemplatively.

"It's not clear exactly which factories will be located for the time being. Farit Assad shook his head and said, "But I'm sure there is at least one tank factory, an aircraft factory and a construction machinery and equipment factory!"

"That's it!" Hafez Assad immediately made a decision and said solemnly: "Falit, you immediately inform the government spokesman and announce to the outside world that the Syrian oil exchange will change the currency unit of international oil settlement to the Asian dollar from now on!"

"Yes, Your Excellency!" said Farit Asat in his steadfast support for his brother's decision.

……

At a time when agents and spies from the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France, China, the Federal Republic of Germany, Italy and other countries were clashing fiercely in Aleppo, the Syrian government suddenly and publicly announced that Syria's oil transactions would be settled in Asian dollars from now on.

This news suddenly sounded like a thunderclap on the ground, making the already somewhat stormy international political pattern even more turbulent.

Yang Weiping, who had just finished the launching ceremony of the Internet docking between Switzerland and Oriental Union International Union at the Palais des Nations in Switzerland, was also a little puzzled when he learned that the Syrian government suddenly came without warning.

Syria, a major oil exporter, announced that it would join the ranks of the Asian dollar of oil, which is of course a great thing for OUEC, which will make the Asian dollar stronger in the international currency circulation market. However, the timing chosen by Syria is quite intriguing.

After coming out of the Palace of Nations, Yang Weiping, after careful consideration, finally made a phone call to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Eastern Union Union, informing Aung San Suu Kyi to immediately contact the Syrian Foreign Ministry and respond positively to the Syrian government's decision.

When Yang Weiping solemnly announced at the Palais des Nations that the world had officially entered the new information age of the Internet, the Syrian government announced almost simultaneously that it would adopt the Asian dollar as the international settlement currency unit for Syrian oil transactions. It seems to be a generous gift to celebrate the global Internet era opened by OUCC.

However, Yang Weiping knew that this was nothing more than a coincidence. Because before this, the Eastern Union had never held any kind of consultation with the Syrian government on the issue of the Asian dollar for oil.

But the problem is that Yang Weiping knows, but it doesn't mean that other governments also know.

Yang Weiping didn't even have to guess, he knew that the White House would definitely convene an emergency meeting at this time because of the decision of the Syrian government.

At the time of the start of the Soviet-led Syria-Iraq Canal project, the Syrian government followed the Iraqi government in announcing that it would join the ranks of the Asian dollar for oil.

You know, if only Iraq adopts the petrodollar, the U.S. petrodollar still has a chance to get back. However, if Syria, which has always been the opponent of Iraq, also chooses the Asian dollar of oil, it means that most of the Arab countries in the Middle East will be inclined to the Asian dollar in the choice of dollar settlement and Asian dollar settlement!

Anyone with a little bit of international political acumen can also understand that the emergence of this situation will mean that the interests of the United States in the Middle East after the end of World War II will gradually be replaced by the Eastern Union!

Iran and Syria have always had close relations, and if Iran also chooses the Asian dollar of oil at this time, then it is very likely that OPEC members will abandon the dollar settlement and choose the Asian dollar settlement!

If the entire OPEC member countries choose Asian dollar settlement, the dollar will definitely fall into a credit crisis in the international currency exchange market!

Once such a situation is formed, what kind of policy will the U.S. government adopt to deal with it?!(To be continued......
