Chapter 262: The Only Choice

"Mr. Ambassador, General, I think you should have seen our proposal, our international risk consulting firm is a defense market focused company currently based in Juarez, Mexico, and El Paso, Texas. Our employees are mainly from Central and Eastern Europe, Central and South America, Mexico, and the United States. Most of them have fought before. In addition, we also have cooperative relations with some domestic arms companies, and at present we have recruited a total of 10 regiments with a total of 6,000 troops, all of which have been trained through the most rigorous airborne forces special forces courses......"

Ivankov talked eloquently in front of the reception staff of the Pentagon and the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States, and earnestly introduced the general situation of the international risk consulting company. Although it has been established for several years, the international risk consulting company has always been in a state of loss, but Seryosha did not hesitate to invest a large amount of money to continue to expand the scale of the international risk consulting company.

Although the number of people is as high as 6,000, the elimination rate of international risk consulting companies is basically 30:1. Most of them have served in the military, whether they are Soviet defectors who fought the Mujahideen on the battlefield in Afghanistan, or exiles from Eastern Europe, or they have bought their lives in the arms of a living drug dealer in a guerrilla group in South America, and some are crazy people who are born to kill. When these people are brought together to take on a job that kills people as a profession, it is destined for the unique business niche of international risk consulting firms.

International Risk Consulting hired a large number of retired instructors from the British Special Air Service Regiment and the US Delta Force to develop the most rigorous training curriculum for these outlaws. Only after passing up to 200 subjects can they become full members of the International Risk Advisory Firm, and in return, the International Risk Advisory Firm will offer them a $100,000-a-year job and a legal U.S. status after three years of service. And in the event of a death, their beneficiaries will also receive a compensation of up to $1 million. It is precisely because this kind of remuneration is so lucrative that many illegal immigrants who want to live in the United States see international risk consulting firms as an opportunity.

Although the atmosphere at the scene seemed to show little interest on the Kuwaiti side, Seryosha had already made it clear to Yuri what was at stake. If the United States wants to send troops to help Kuwait, the first hurdle to pass is the US Congress, and then it has to get authorization from the United Nations. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia will certainly hope that the sooner the United States fulfills its defense commitments, the better. In this contradiction, the advice of the international risk consulting firm is definitely the most suitable for the current situation.

Because the international risk consulting firm is a company, not a country, it can work for anyone, and Kuwait recovers its own land and fights the aggressor even more legally defensible. Second, although the US president is the commander-in-chief of the three armed services, if he wants to go to war, he needs a national defense budget, and this money, together with the authorization to send troops, needs to be approved by Congress; according to past experience, this will be a long process, and it will take several months for Congress to authorize it alone, and with the authorization of the United Nations, it will take at least half a year. Without taking into account the alliance between the Soviet Union and Iraq, the Soviet Union was a member of the five permanent Security Councils with a veto, and the United States and the Soviet Union had not agreed on any international resolution since the beginning of the Cold War. If the Soviet Union had gone against the United States on the Iraq issue, or if Iraq's dispatch of troops to Kuwait had been approved by the Soviet Union, then the matter would be troublesome, and it would have been difficult for the United States and the Soviet Union to return to the old path of confrontation.

It is precisely because of these complex issues that the Pentagon has made up its mind from the very beginning that Kuwait and Saudi Arabia will accept the plan of an international risk consulting firm, and the Kuwaiti government will come forward to hire an international risk consulting firm to fight the Iraqi army in the Persian Gulf.

"Well, Mr. Ivankov, I know enough about your company, but we still want the American military to help us, not a company!" The Kuwaiti said arrogantly.

"Mr. Ambassador, I think you should listen carefully to Mr. Ivankov's introduction, our Ministry of Defense thinks this is a good way to solve the problem!" The representative of the Pentagon unexpectedly sang the opposite tune of the Kuwaiti ambassador.

"General, are your words an official answer from the Pentagon? We are allies of the United States, and the president of your country has promised more than once to protect our security, and you will not break your promises! "The Kuwaiti ambassador's greatest concern is that the United States refuses to send troops, if that happens, not only will there be no hope of Kuwait's recovery, but even Saudi Arabia will have no chance of resisting the torrent of Iraqi steel.

"Mr. Master, Mr. President's promise is valid, but you have to take into account that we are a peace-loving democracy and our people do not want to be drawn into a war. Just after you submitted your request to Mr. President to send troops, tens of thousands of anti-war activists, families of fallen soldiers of the Vietnam War, and some Vietnam veterans had gathered outside the White House! I hope you will think about the difficulties of the president......" the general replied unceremoniously.

"Is this your president's reply to us? How did you promise it in the first place......"

"Mr. Ambassador, if you don't accept it, I don't think we have anything to do for the time being, Mr. President is very busy, and we have to prepare for the visit of Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev recently, I'm afraid we have no other alternative in the short term!" The representative of the Pentagon got up unceremoniously and prepared to leave, if Kuwait is still a country, the general is still in the mood to discuss with the other party, now the other party is just an ambassador of a government in exile, which is basically of no value to the US government, and there are many such exiled leaders in the United States, such as Pahlavi in Iran, Syngman Rhee in South Korea, and Nguyen Van Thieu in Vietnam, the countries ruled by these people are much more important than Kuwait, but can the United States manage it? The Department of Defense has been instructed by the White House to accept Kuwait's proposal from the International Risk Advisory Corporation. The U.S. government has no plans to send troops for the time being.

Looking at the indifferent attitude of the Pentagon representatives, the Kuwaiti ambassador has no choice at all, the emir has given him carte blanche to deal with the matter of the United States sending troops, and now the attitude of the Americans is chilling, forget it! A defense company is a defense company, it's better than nothing.

"I agree...... Accept the proposal of an international risk consulting firm! The Kuwaiti ambassador nodded helplessly. 9110
