However, de Gaulle would not have known that some of France's allies, who had been promised this time, would not appear at all when France really confronted the United States, and another enemy who put France under pressure helped the French once at the most critical moment, and of course then pitted France.

Serov, who is in Moscow, takes economic classes every day, and of course Soviet economists play with the planned economy, but they are not without study of the US system, after all, they are enemies, and they must pay more attention. The relationship between dollar issuance, U.S. debt, and how much U.S. dollars are overissued.

After being taught by many economic experts, Serov nodded with a serious expression, but he still did not understand. The General Political Commissar was confused about the specific methods of operation. How to earn the maximum benefit, Comrade Chairman does not understand at all. But one thing is certain, this is not as simple as the USSR taking dollars to the Fed to receive gold, otherwise all the gold of the Fed would add up, and it would not be enough for the KGB.

It must have been operating in the financial markets, causing shocks in gold and the dollar, while watching the reaction of Wall Street. If it were just to empty the Fed with dollars, it would be simple, and De Gaulle would have been ready to do it for a long time, and it would not even be De Gaulle's turn. What really made the Breston Woods system unsustainable was actually the American's father, Britain, and it was the Germans who made him history forever. The USSR did not join in history.

After the end of the Breston Woods system, the United States chose oil, and at the same time an organization was created at that time as compensation for the United States to other economic powers, and this organization was called the G7. The Group of Seven Summit, or G7 for short, is a mechanism for the heads of state or government of the seven most developed industrialized countries (the United States, Japan, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Canada) to meet on major issues of common interest. He said that the United States can not pursue its own country to do everything, and can discuss it when there is something in the future.

Let the KGB apparatus keep an eye on this, at the moment Serov needs to go abroad, as for the destination of the trip. It is Albania, and Serov will lead a large delegation of security cadres to visit Albania. In his application to the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR, he said, "In view of the important geographical location of Albania, I believe that our differences need to be bridged, and therefore I am preparing to visit the security services of Albania." ”

Relations between the USSR and Albania, as well as with Yugoslavia, were complicated. In different periods of time, the position is also different, and the easing of relations between Albania and Yugoslavia will lead to a bad relationship with the Soviet Union. On the other hand, as soon as Tito revealed a statement that alarmed Albania, relations between the Soviet Union and Albania would be relaxed.

Albania completely severed relations with the Soviet Union because of the Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia. Serov had to say that militarily the Soviet Red Army did a good job, and it couldn't have been better. Politically, the Communist Parties of Western Europe broke with the Soviet Union one after another, believing that the Soviet Union was a more ferocious enemy than the United States. Since then, the leadership of the Soviet Union in the socialist camp and its influence on the Communist Parties of the world have been weakened, and the Communist Parties of Western European countries have suffered heavy losses and have never become an important political force, and the Soviet Union cannot use these parties to contain Western European countries.

The summary of intelligence from Czechoslovakia and other countries of Eastern Europe, which appeared on Serov's desk every month, was in general, good, and good could not have been better. After Sudan and Indonesia entered the Soviet economy, economic growth increased, with the arrival of grain, meat and tropical fruits driving down the cost of living, and the entry of rubber freeing industries from many constraints, with all Eastern European countries growing at more than 9 percent.

Factories in various countries are running at rates, and workers simply don't have time to protest, they still have to go to work. The children want to eat bananas, they also know that after the arrival of rubber, the production of cars in various countries will increase, and everyone wants to have their own car and take their children on the weekend. Isn't it great to hear that Indonesia has a good tropical scenery, make some money, or evaluate yourself as an advanced worker, and you can go to the islands of Indonesia to bask in the sun without spending money.

There will still be a wave of protests unless it is really the forces of US imperialism that have penetrated in. Otherwise, Serov would never have believed that something would happen in Eastern Europe this year. When Soviet airliners landed in Tirana, the capital of Albania, Serov came to the land of eagles for the first time, which is the largest city and major industrial center in Albania, with metallurgy, tractor repair, food processing, textiles, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, dyes, glass, porcelain and other industries. There were those built with the aid of the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and of course, China.

At this time, relations between the Soviet Union and Albania were not bad, and Albania did not withdraw from the Warsaw Pact. Although the small country was not obedient, it maintained some communication with the Soviet Union, and after Indonesia and Sudan joined the ECE, Albania's accusations against the ECLEI were slightly relaxed.

But this small country is not easy to deal with, the Soviet Union does not border this country like Yugoslavia, so even if it is pressured, Albania will not care, not to mention that people can completely turn around and follow China, although the relationship between the two countries is not very good now.

The person who welcomed the Soviet delegation at the airport was called Shehu, Chairman of the Council of Ministers of Albania, head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Serov gave the half-colleague a warm hug and opened the formation of this visit to Albania. Both Shehu and Hoxha had some expectations for Serov's visit, but Serov was a normal visit, saying that he was just here to learn about the relevant security experience.

For the Soviet Union, Albania was a huge burden, and when it supported Albania, the Soviet Union belonged to the kind of people who lost money and made money, but this small country had to maintain this burden all the time. At present, this burden is no longer in my hands. Relations between the two countries were limited to the military alliance of the Warsaw Pact.

Of course, this does not mean that this country has no value at all, otherwise Comrade General Political Commissar of National Security is so busy, how could he come to a place where birds don't, is it to help the poor?

"I heard that Albania is working on the eradication of religion, but I wonder how it is progressing?" This is Serov's purpose, he has already made a plan for the Middle East, and Turkey is delayed, first in Iraq. But the religious atmosphere in Iraq always made him, the chairman of the KGB, uneasy, and even doubted the KGB's ability to suppress it for the first time.

At this time, the atheist movement in Albania seemed to be making great progress, and Serov, who was overjoyed, hurried to Albania to learn from experience. In the unlikely event that we are unable to grasp Iraq's religion on our own, it is reasonable to bring in a number of Albanian cadres to Iraq to guide the work in the spirit of friendship between the two countries and from the perspective of internationalism.

Last year, the Albanian authorities launched a vigorous campaign to eradicate religion in Albania, declaring that religion had divided the Albanian nation and made it difficult for it to develop. The team went down to the countryside and forced the Albanians to stop their religious activities. Despite all opposition, even from members of the Workers' Party, all churches, mosques, and other religious facilities were closed or converted into warehouses, gymnasiums, and factories by the end of the year.

But it's not about Serov, didn't he come here to see if Albania had not succeeded?

"The effect is remarkable, Comrade Serov, do you want to see our results?" As soon as Shehu heard about this question, he immediately expressed his willingness to brief the KGB delegation on Albania's progress in this matter.

At the same time, the Government has drastically changed the status of women in Albania. Women are considered second-class citizens in traditional Albanian society, and they do most of the domestic and agricultural work. Prior to World War II, nine out of ten Albanian women were illiterate and in many areas were considered movable property by ancient tribal laws and customs. In the midst of the cultural and ideological revolution, the Party encouraged women to work outside the home in order to overcome the labor shortage and eliminate their conservative ideas. Hoxha declared that anyone who flouted the party's women's rights proclamation should be thrown into the fire.

Serov led a delegation of the KGB to see the results of depolitiarization and the specific handling methods of the security organs, Serov nodded frequently and asked the cadres behind him to write it down, and then they had a meal in a canteen that turned out to be a mosque.

"Comrade Serov, a person cannot be bound by religion, we should emancipate our minds, not be imprisoned by them, and in our opinion, religion is the greatest imprisoning of ideas. Historically, religion has been absolutely no good. Shehu spoke eloquently about the eradication of religion.

"That's right, Comrade Shehu, I myself completely agree with the opinion and appreciate the results of Albania. It was not possible to succeed in Albania in the first place, but it was possible to succeed in Albania in the first place...... Serov looked pleased, satisfied the vanity of the other party, and was praised and recognized by high-ranking Soviet cadres, an experience that Shehu did not have several times.

I wonder what kind of chemical reaction a group of Albanian cadres will have after being seconded to Iraq in the future? In any case, they should be experienced cadres, so they should be able to achieve good results, right? Serov thought of this possibility, and a smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
