The second watch, sleepy, sleeping.

President Demirel did not seek urgent consultations with the military department at the first moment of the incident, but turned to NATO and US allies for help, hoping that they would intervene in the dispute and mediate the contradictions and conflicts between Turkey and the Soviet Union. President Demirel believes that as long as the United States is behind it, Turkey will not care about the Soviet Union's warnings.

They just need to maintain Turkey's territory within the Black Sea and wait for the American Navy to come and save them. Demirel never counted on the Turkish navy from the beginning, anyway, he thought that instead of using that little money to fight the Black Sea Fleet, it was better to wait for the king to rescue him. However, the current situation in Turkey is to wait for the king's division, and the king's division just won't go ashore. I heard that the aircraft carrier battle group of the Pacific Fleet was wandering in the Mediterranean region, but it did not have the slightest intention of moving towards Turkey. At this time, Tenet was slowly waiting for Turkey to give the American fleet the right of navigation into the waters of the strait.

Director Tenet's previous plan was even more vicious, and after reaching the target area, the U.S. Navy fleet quickly took control of key ports in the Turkish Straits, and then anchored the entire fleet in Turkish waters. The next step was to force the Turkish government to sign an unbalanced treaty with itself to serve American interests in the Far East, allowing the United States to establish a naval base in Turkey to counter the threat of the Soviet Black Sea Fleet.

Originally, Director Tenet's arrangement did not have any flaws, but it was denied by President Mario. The reason is that this plan is too risky and does not suit Turkey, which has just persuaded to build an anti-missile system. Moreover, the establishment of a US naval base in the Turkish Strait, even if the sovereignty dispute is left alone, is a major issue of funding. Congress is already increasingly dissatisfied with the voracious appetite for the expansion of the U.S. Navy. They believe that the U.S. Navy is emptying Congress's purse in disguise. Director Tenet only considered the superiority of strategy, but he did not expect that the United States was now at the end of its strong bow and no longer had the ability to stretch its hand longer.

Moreover, the dispatch of the aircraft carrier battle group this time was also the result of Mario's persuasion of the Minister of Defense, who believed that it was an unwise choice to start a "naval arms race plan" with the Soviet Union during this period, so they would do everything possible to block President Mario's transfer plan. So Director Tenet's plan to blackmail Turkey was naturally denied.

Then one of the next things that the American aircraft carrier may have to do is enter the Turkish Straits for a one-on-one standoff with the Soviet Black Sea Fleet.

When Demirel returned to his presidential office, the first thing he did was call President Mario to negotiate the stationing of the U.S. aircraft carrier battle group in the Soviet Union.

When he heard that the Black Sea Fleet was intimidating Turkey by force, President Mario pretended to show surprise in his tone, "President Demirel, are you telling the truth?" The USSR has already sent the Black Sea Fleet into the waters of Malamald? Are they doing so in preparation for international disputes? ”

After hearing President Mario's answer, Demirel clenched the microphone excitedly, and he said excitedly, "We don't know what the Soviet Union wants to do, but I think their next move will be to put political and military pressure around the strait incident, so I hope the American side can ......."

"Assistance?" Speaking of this, President Mario changed to another cold tone, with a taste of robbery while the fire was burning, "Speaking of assistance, the United States can mobilize aircraft carrier battle groups in the Mediterranean region into Turkish waters at any time." The NATO bloc could also be unleashed at any time to adjudicate against the USSR. However, our aid is not free, and Turkey must show the corresponding sincerity and make us think that it is worth doing. ”

Demirel was stunned for a moment, he did not expect President Mario to make such an opinion at this time. Turkey's previous offer to build an anti-missile system is already the biggest bargaining chip, and he can't think of any more demands from the United States.

"The issue of navigation rights in the Turkish Straits is also a focus of our close attention." Mario Europe was able to slowly settle accounts with Demirel, and the issue of navigation rights is the biggest problem for non-Black Sea countries.

"The Turkish Straits are open to navigation, and the fleets of the Black Sea countries can freely pass through the Turkish Straits without this right. Now I think this rule needs to be changed, and that is that the United States also has the right to free navigation through the Turkish Straits, and it is possible to allow aircraft carriers to pass freely. ”

You must know that in order to be able to pass through the strait smoothly, the Soviet Union even did not hesitate to change the aircraft carrier into a heavy cruiser. Now President Mario has proposed the free passage of American aircraft carriers as soon as he comes up, which makes Turkey very difficult.

After hearing President Mario's answer, Demirel didn't know how to answer for a while, now the Black Sea Strait is in a state of joint trusteeship between the Soviet Union and Turkey, if Demirel agrees to President Mario's request, then the Soviet Union and the United States aircraft carriers can freely navigate the Sea of Marmara, which is simply a provocation to Turkey's sea power. At that time, the Turkish Straits will no longer be a pass that the Turks are proud of, but will become the Strait of Malacca.

This is unacceptable to even Demirel, and it is even more difficult for the Turkish military to agree to this demand, which undermines the integrity of sovereignty. What's more, this is only the first condition put forward by the United States, and who knows how many killer tricks are hidden behind it.

Demirel began to worry that using the United States against the Soviet Union was like playing a game of driving the tiger and chasing the wolf, and if he did not choose well, he could make Turkey a subordinate of the United States, rather than continue to be a friend of the European Union.

Demirel shuddered, Mario on the other end of the phone didn't give him time to think, President Mario said impatiently, "Without the help of the American fleet, Turkey's victory over the Black Sea Fleet is simply wishful thinking." What's more, if it weren't for the anti-missile system and the right of asylum of the United States, Turkey would still be alive and kicking? ”

"Don't forget, a considerable part of Turkey's decision to join the EU is now in the hands of the United States, so President Demirel has to think about one thing before saying no."

President Mario asked a difficult question, "Now that I have the initiative in your hands, do you want to face the Soviet Union alone, or do you want to use the military power of the United States to drive out the aggressor?" ”

"Think about it, President Demirel."

With that, President Mario hung up the phone, leaving Demirel alone in his office. (To be continued.) )
