"A different non-political axe armed group - the Paramingchu Army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Fight for the territorial integrity and national dignity of Somalia! Interview with the Ming Cooking Army! ”

“……”

The next day, a front-page story by Kenya-based correspondent Clara was published on the front page of the International Edition of the New York Times, and other major newspapers and online media outlets picked it up. After the exchange of fire, the Paraminchu Army, which had been silent for two days, became famous again for the New York Times report.

I have to say that Clara, as a reporter for the New York Times, can't say how she writes. Although the whole article has been the same as the New York Times's long-standing impartiality attitude, there is no language that leans towards surnames. But many people still read the implicit hint of applauding the Paramin's army.

As a local caste armed group. Or the chaotic country of Somalia. When ordinary people think of this kind of armed organization, they are vying for power and profit, regardless of the overall situation and the life and death of the people. But in Clara's pen, an organization dedicated to serving the people under its rule and daring to fight for the dignity of the country and a country that is itself a behemoth comes to life. After reading the report, some people even had a hint of enlightenment in their hearts. The previous idea of being disgusted with any non-political armed group was one-sided. At least, in Somalia, there is an organization that can serve the people. They may have their own ambitions, their own ideals, but at least they have done something for the Somali people under their rule.

After seeing this report, the Kenyan political axe immediately exploded. President Mwai immediately convened a meeting of his cabinet members to discuss countermeasures.

"Minister Mulungaru, didn't you promise that you could deal with this conflict quickly? Why hasn't there been any movement until now? On the contrary, the other side shook out the inside story of the conflict, which had a great impact on the image of our political axe. The Office of the Vice President and Minister of State for the Interior Lina said in a strange way at the beginning of the meeting. The accusations against Mulungalu in his tone can be understood by anyone.

The one in this room is not a qualified politician? The contradictions between Mulungaru and Lena have long been clear. As the ruling party, the 'National Rainbow Alliance' was originally formed by a coalition of 14 parties, and the original purpose was to unite to confront the 'Kenya African National Union', which has always occupied the throne of Kenya's ruling party. There are many contradictions between each other. Now that we have successfully defeated the 'Kenmeng', our previous unanimous and close cooperation with the outside world has long ended. The contradictions between each other are gradually exposed under the conflict of interests. And Lina, because she is dissatisfied with her in the entire cabinet ranking, succumbed to Mulungaru, and the two have always fought openly and secretly.

With such a good opportunity this time, Lena certainly won't let go of Mulungaru. Shoot at him at the beginning.

All of them were old foxes, and everyone was willing to sit and watch the excitement when they were fighting each other. But the current situation has become big, and the image of Kenya's political axe has been smeared. At this time, it is not a question of any one person, and then it will be the fault of the entire cabinet. Maybe everyone will step down because of this. No one has forgotten that in Kenya, there is also a powerful 'Ken League' on the sidelines.

When it comes to their own interests, many people are unwilling to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. Several ministers took the floor at the moment. The words are both overtly and secretly accusing Mulungalu of misconduct. It has a very bad impact on the political axe.

As president, Mwai? Mr. Zibaki had not spoken, and he knew in his heart that the people who spoke were all from Vice President Moody's. And Mulungaru was his man. In the entire Cabinet, only he, the President, and Mullengaru, the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and National Security, are members of the Kenya Defence Commission. The National Defence Council is Kenya's highest military decision-making body. In addition to the President's part-time Commander-in-Chief and Chairman of the Committee, there are the Chief of Staff of the Kenyan Armed Forces, the Commander of the Army, Sea and Air, and the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and National Security, Mulungaru, among others. As Vice President Moody's faction, no one has entered Kenya's highest military decision-making body, which has long made Moody's and others dissatisfied. The commanders of the land, sea and air forces are all powerful figures in the Kenyan military. Those people are more entrenched in the military than the politicians here. There is no room for them to interfere. Moody's and others have been targeting Minister Mulungaru. Just get Mulungaru out of power. Only then will they have the opportunity to insert their own people into the National Defense Committee.

Knowing this, it doesn't mean that Mwai can protect Mulungalu regardless of the overall situation. The current crisis is a bit tricky for Mwai. If not handled properly, it could even really trigger the ouster of Mulungaru.

"Regardless of how the outside world is, even in China, there are bad rumors. In particular, the cause of the armed conflict, Minister Mulungaru, at a press conference, identified the exchange of fire during the capture of non-political armed elements, while the other side said that it was caused by the shooting of cross-border refugees by our border guards. There is support for both arguments, so what we need now is how to divert people's attention. They must not be allowed to focus on the causes of conflict. Otherwise, sooner or later, the real inside story will be exposed. At this time, Attorney General Amos, who has always been at odds with each other in the cabinet and is a neutral member, spoke unhurriedly.

What he meant was that he didn't want to attack each other internally at such a time. It should be consistent with the outside world. Everyone is now a whole, and if the internal contradictions break out again, there is only one way to step down.

Although these remarks were made from the standpoint of overall interests and justice. But it is not in the interests of Moody's. They finally caught Mullengalu's sore foot, and they were willing to let it go easily. But Amos's words are not unreasonable. Internal contradictions and struggles always have to give way to the interests of the whole. Otherwise, everyone will step down, even if it comes to Mulungaru, what's the use?

President Mwai gave Amos a satisfied look, and he thought that the old stubborn had finally become a little cute.

"Prosecutor General Amos is right. The main purpose of our meeting now is to discuss how to deal with the problem at hand. The image of the country and the political axe must not be tarnished by a conflict. Minister Mulungaru, you are the person in charge of this conflict, tell me how to resolve this crisis next! Mwai, fearing that the others would say something unpleasant, immediately opened his mouth to lead the conversation to where he needed it.

Mulungaru, who had been silent, glanced at the president gratefully when he heard this. This time, because of his 'blatant lie' at the press conference, he has already had a great impact on the political axe. Plus the conflict has not been resolved until now. If you are not careful, you will be removed from power by Moody's and others. And the president's words undoubtedly gave him another chance.

"Yes, Your Excellency. We will not talk about the reasons for this conflict for the time being. In the previous cabinet meeting, we meant how to resolve this conflict, and we also wanted to use it as a warning to some 'stubborn' forces in Somalia. Therefore, it is necessary to strike at the Paraming Army with our strong military force. Only to blow their arrogance. Only then can the forces in Somalia be quieted down and obediently follow our train of thought and come to the negotiating table. And in terms of how to fight the Paramingchu army militarily, we must have a complete plan. The result of my discussions with the relevant responsible persons of the Eastern Military Region is that the victory of this military strike is undoubted, but we cannot leave any leverage for the outside world. Because in the eyes of the outside world and the people, China's political axe has always been committed to resolving the contradictions between various forces and maintaining a positive image of peace in all countries. If, because of an unexpected conflict, we wantonly 'enter' other countries with powerful military force to fight against armed groups in other countries, it is absolutely not in line with the image of East African leaders that our political axe has been trying to create. Making a big fuss and reporting flaws will become synonymous with our country's political axe. That would be very detrimental to our country's strategic deployment...... "Mullengalu is worthy of being an old and cunning politician, and he soon has a lot of reasons in his mind to shirk his responsibility. Every sentence is for the national strategic deployment, and every word is for the overall interests of the country. There is not a single loophole that can be found.

Naturally, Moody's was both contemptuous and helpless at Mullengaru's words. And President Mwai's side must have looked at Mulungaru with appreciation and satisfaction. Some cabinet members at the bottom of the ranking couldn't help but sigh with admiration in their hearts, no wonder they were able to sit in the position of provincial minister of state for management and national security. With this eloquence and reflexes alone, it is a disadvantage.

"The Paramingchu Army must be attacked militarily, but we must stand on the moral high ground. Let the outside world understand that we have to use military action against the Paramingchu army. We are not for selfish gain, but for the sake of peace in East Africa and for the peace and future of the Somali nation!" In the end, Mulungalu sat up straight and said with a righteous face.

"Bang Bang ......," President Mwai applauded with satisfaction. Others, whether they wanted it or not, had to applaud along with it.

Mulungaru immediately stood up modestly and thanked the cabinet members. The appearance is very well-done.

"Minister Mulungaru's words are very good. Why is it possible for our country to convince other countries and organizations in Africa? Isn't it because our political axe has always been for the benefit of Africa as a whole? Hegemonism is unacceptable. So this time, in terms of how to deal with all the issues arising from the armed conflict, I think it is still the responsibility of Minister Mulungaru. Minister Caronzo (Ministry of Foreign Affairs), when the meeting is over, you will convene a press conference for domestic and foreign journalists to convey the message of our political axe adhering to the principle of a peaceful settlement of the '12 July' conflict, and I hope that the Paramingo Army will recognize the facts, and the method of stubborn resistance and spreading false rumors is untenable. Sooner or later, it will be spurned by lovers of peace in all countries. Let them hand over the perpetrators of the '7.12' crossfire as soon as possible, and send representatives to join the Somali peace conference......"

Before the end of the meeting, President Mwai solemnly admonished the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
