Chapter 912: The Great Family of Socialism

As long as Yugoslavia is dealt with, the hidden dangers in Eastern Europe will have been basically smoothed out. Pen ~ fun ~ cabinet www.biquge.info for the Soviet Union, the significance is no less than that of the United States to reverse the trade deficit. It just doesn't seem to work so quickly, but that's just what it looks like......

The 300,000 Yugoslav People's Army was no longer an enemy, but for the Soviet Union, it was an immediate effect. With that, not to mention this kind of welcome ceremony, Rankovic can want more. At the Kremlin banquet in the evening, all the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, who were still able to drink, attended to express their welcome to the Yugoslav comrades.

"It's been thirteen years since we first came into contact, and time flies." Rankovic raised his glass, originally Rankovic was the number three person in the Yugoslav Communist Party, but he was different from the average high-ranking Yugoslav cadre. Rankovic had a clear inclination to establish a central government, which was why Tito eventually dealt with him.

"Yes, we started contact in 1971!" Serov thought that his memory was not bad, and by that time Ranković had already been swept to the end, and the totalitarian wing of the Serbian Communist Party was beaten by Tito.

Rankovich, who fell to the extreme, entered the sight of the KGB, of course, at the beginning, Serov did not dare to contact Rankovich too much, because Tito was not at ease with Rankovich at first, so he only sent spies to observe the person's state of mind at that time.

It wasn't until a few years after lurking at Rankovich's side that the spies sent by the KGB were sure to be safe, and the Soviet KGB made contact with Rankovich, who led the security system for many years, and it was impossible for all his subordinates to be purged. Moreover, the Communist Party of Serbia generally sympathized with Ranković and opened its mouth, and the work of the Soviet Union in Yugoslavia was much smoother.

At first, Serov was very careful, but Tito got older, especially when he began to visit Moscow, meet with Brezhnev and begin to improve relations between Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, at that time Serov was sure that the Yugoslav leader who dared to work against Stalin was really old.

"Tito, it's more idealistic, he gave Yugoslavia too big a goal, and with Yugoslavia's national strength, this goal is really difficult to achieve." Serov smiled at the corner of his mouth and said meaningfully as Rankovic clinked glasses, "Be a man or be practical." ”

The first generation of Yugoslav leaders, including Tito, were not nationalists, and even if Tito was a Croat, his policies were not biased in favor of Croatia. Tito fought countless nationalists during his tenure, both Serbian and Croatian, and the title of fair coexistence and national integration was too big. It seems that Tito still chose the former, in fact, no matter which one he chooses, Tito should not offend the Soviet Union with his colleagues. The Soviet Union was also a unified multi-ethnic country, and once something happened to Yugoslavia, only the Soviet Union would come to the rescue because of the actual situation of socialism and the country.

Tito still believes too much in the ability of a small country to resist risks in the modern world, medieval Serbia can fight the Ottoman Empire for decades, while in modern society, as long as the Soviet Union and the United States are shameless enough to clearly define only destruction and not occupation, it is simply to fight whoever they want, and other countries do not want to touch the two countries.

In the first generation of Yugoslav leaders, only Rankovic was inclined to centralize power and opposed loose national autonomy, and at the same time, Rankovic had a clear Serbian position, which was also the reason why he was replaced by Tito.

The deep-seated reason is that Tito's attempt to establish the concept of the Yugoslav nation naturally does not tolerate nationalists like Rankovic, which is the same as the Soviet national unity advocated by the Soviet Union. The same concept is called the Chinese nation in East Asia......

Yugoslavia's ability to resist risks is not as good as that of the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union still has Russians who account for a little more than half of the population, and Ukraine can still control the situation, so on the issue of national division, only the Soviet Union can protect Yugoslavia, and Tito's anti-Soviet position is really not a good thing.

"Well, the power in Yugoslavia is already too scattered, and it must be concentrated a little, and this is indispensable with the help of the Soviet Union." Ranković nodded, not hiding the desire to change the attitude of Yugoslavia's foreign policy.

Serov shook his wine glass and drank it all, held the empty wine glass high, and congratulated all the cadres who participated in the banquet. Thirteen years of hard work, after all, there will be a day when the bitterness will come. Once again, he has completed a long-term plan, which is something to celebrate.

"I wish you success!" Serov once again said with his best wishes, and the head of the big secret service is now absolutely sincerely congratulating.

Because Rankovich only had KGB spies by his side when he was in trouble, Serov knew the thoughts of this Tito comrade-in-arms very well, and at the same time told Rankovich the Soviet Union's ideas through spies.

A family that has been with you for ten years when you are in trouble is, of course, a matter of course, to gain trust. With his family as Rankovich's neighbors, until Tito's death, Rankovich, who came out of the mountain again, was not the same as before.

Tito's policy of ethnic equality, equal rights, and advocating the unity of Yugoslavia took three years to change, and the Serbian Communist Party enlisted the support of the Communist Parties of the three autonomous republics of Montenegro, Macedonia and Slovenia, and had taken control of the political situation in Yugoslavia, although Ranković did not openly carry out Serbization.

Many minorities, you don't think you can't see them and they don't exist, after Ranković took control of Yugoslavia, he could only continue Yugoslav integration, if there was one more thing, it was the union of Serbia and Croatia and became the cornerstone of Yugoslavia. Rankovic can only do it here, even if he doesn't want to.

The proximity of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia immediately aroused the vigilance of Europe and the United States, Rankovich had never found Yugoslavia so popular, the World Bank was ready to approve loans to Yugoslavia, Reagan said that Yugoslavia had outstanding influence in the world political landscape, and Thatcher believed that Yugoslavia had been fruitful in its development over the years and was more economically dynamic than ordinary Eastern European countries......

Yugoslavia was already the only country in Eastern Europe that could cause a little trouble for the Soviet Union, and if relations between the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia were thoroughly improved, the environment for NATO would be even worse. These words can no longer deceive Rankovich, who has been communicating with KGB spies for more than ten years, and in the seventies, world oil prices soared, and Yugoslavia was also greatly affected, and at that time there were not so many European and American friends to lend a hand.

Now that the Soviet Union is so strong, Rankovich is not ready to lead Yugoslavia into a dangerous game again, and the only benefit of Tito beating him to the bottom is to make Rankovich more practical. Think about things in terms of the national power of Yugoslavia itself.

Ranković, who himself headed the Yugoslav Ministry of Internal Affairs and the National Security Service for a long time, was very interested in the Soviet system of social surveillance, and the exchange of this matter did not require a fake hand, and the general secretary was the most professional. The two spy leaders had their own way of communicating on this matter, and the laughter from time to time made the other cadres a little incomprehensible......

General Chebrikov and General Zvigon looked indifferent, and of course they could understand the communication between the spies.

"The Internet is a good thing, and it really deserves an anti-slack and anti-privilege run!" Rankovich quickly discovered a strong police approach from the current policy of the Soviet Union, of course, Serov was professional, and he was not an amateur, and he also led Yugoslav security efforts for many years.

The next day the two entered the Comintern building, which was about to be opened, and Rankovic was optimistic about the socialist line in Yugoslavia and about relations with the Soviet Union. This statement appeared on the evening news network of the Soviet Union.

For some countries, this is not good news. Reminders of goodwill towards Yugoslavia once again flooded European and American newspapers, and many enthusiastic people in France, Great Britain and the Federal Republic of Germany reminded Yugoslavia of the dignity of an independent country and the importance of Yugoslavia's international influence.

"We have long not considered Yugoslavia to be the same as other Eastern European countries, and Yugoslavia is a very important country in the world. It belongs to the international community, and if there are some problems, the international community will also help. "World Bank President Alden? Winship? Clawson came forward to promise that he would help Yugoslavia through the economic crisis.

"Yugoslavia, of course, was part of the socialist family, and we only had an unpleasant relationship with the Soviet Union for a while." Rankovich's public statement almost gave Reagan the heart to learn from Serov.

In this upsurge of public opinion, Serov was constantly shot in a fancy way, and many newspapers reminded Yugoslavia that they did not forget to mention the Soviet Union's theory of power and sovereignty and international dictatorship. Obviously, international public opinion is not so forgetful, and uses the theory of limited sovereignty to warn Yugoslavia to avoid becoming a puppet of the Soviet Union.

However, this was to no avail, and in the following days, Ranković agreed to several things on behalf of Yugoslavia, signed a memorandum of understanding with the chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union Tikhonov on the planned economic upgrade, and reached an agreement with Serov, general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, to open the Internet to Yugoslavia and no longer restrict information from the Soviet Union.

Ranković believes that Yugoslavia should be a mixed economy, in which the public economy should have a greater proportion, and this statement marks Yugoslavia's complete farewell to the Tito era. Yugoslavia will no longer be a source of internal friction within the socialist camp.

"A socialist family?" Serov stood up and Rankovic led the applause after signing numerous agreements.
