Chapter 582: International Trotskyism

So now there is a question, whether to isolate de Gaulle, so that he cannot go back to France and become the free development of the May Storm, or to kill this man who has worked hard to restore the glory of France directly in Romania? Serov should choose the former in terms of risk, and personally emotionally he is always thinking about the latter option. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Of course I know that a group of people can serve us in the USSR, but Yuri, do you know the danger of this? You are attacking de Gaulle, who is the head of a country, and you are declaring war on France? The Presidium of the Central Committee will not agree with your idea, there is no possibility of this. Sakhatowski asked rhetorically, "The danger of you doing so is great, is it worth the sporadic protests in France that you are risking your political life?" ”

"So I'm thinking about whether to block him or just kill him, as for the rules, fairness and things like that. All I can say is that our opponents have never complied. Serov grabbed his hair and seemed to be lost in thought. He didn't want to miss the opportunity of the May Storm, but he also knew that such an action would not work anyway.

The risk was too great, the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR were politicians, not military men, and not spies. Otherwise, the Ministry of Defense would have waged several wars a long time ago, and the KGB would have been engaged in wind and rain around the world. Precisely because they were the leaders of the USSR, there were a lot of things to think about, preventing a lot of actions of the Ministry of Defense and the KGB.

"The members of the advisory department in Romania blocked all the news from Romania, and we did it ourselves." After thinking for a long time, Serov had already made a decision in his heart, and the expression on his face had become silent.

"You really think about it, you are already an alternate member of the Presidium of the Central Committee, you are only forty years old, and it is not easy to get to this point." Sakhatowsky sighed in his heart, still making a final persuasion.

"I don't have any aspirations anymore, from the time I went to Italy alone to today, I have seen the essence of this struggle, and the plan I have proposed is enough to complete it step by step in ten years, even if I am dismissed and go home, I will have no regrets. It's worth the risk, even if I go home to see my kids from now on. Serov sat in his chair like a zombie and whispered word by word, "As long as France is completely free from the influence of the United States, I am willing to pay any price, even if I put myself in it......"

"Send a telegram, we'll isolate de Gaulle, maybe we won't have to make an accident to kill him." Serov pretended to be relaxed and said that maybe things were not so bad, and that simply extending De Gaulle's visit for a few days would make an unexpected difference. After all, in this time and space, the Soviet Union has a strong reputation and a much stronger French Communist Party. Maybe as long as there is a time difference, he won't have to do the last step.

"I see, I hope I don't have to take the last step." Sakhatowsky wanted to speak and stopped, the person in front of him was willing to pay any price, what did he care about an old man who was about to retire.

Then the KGB chairman issued an order to monitor all movements in Romania, and the General Directorate of the KGB Military Administration of the Romanian Army Group began to work in the military, and Sakhatowsky's informant when he was Romania's general adviser also took action. All the recent intelligence and analysis of the situation is constantly being sent to the Rubyanka, and the Rubyanka is also the end point, and not a word will be leaked to the Kremlin.

The entire KGB has gone into action, creating a special action group against Romania. Serov had to hide it from everyone, from Khrushchev, from Suslov, from Brezhnev, and likewise from Sherepin. For Serov, it was a great adventure, and when de Gaulle visited Romania, he would do everything he could to delay De Gaulle's visit and at the same time make a big deal in France.

Relevant information continues to be sent to the chairman's office, and things are not too bad. Because France in this time and space is different, legally Algeria remains an integral part of France, since the Algerian War of Independence a few years ago. After the defeat, Algeria had strong pro-Soviet sentiments, and the vast majority of the 12 million Algerians were inclined to socialism, so it was likely to succeed if de Gaulle was held off for a few days. Considering that the population of France itself is only about 40 million, it will be a big political earthquake if 12 million Algerians join the opposition.

The Algerian War was not fought in vain, although in the end the KGB sold Algeria to France. But the war also succeeded in leaning Algeria towards the Soviet bloc, and de Gaulle's government took a conciliatory approach, giving Algerians all the rights of native French citizens. It also includes the right to vote, which is why the authority of Charles de Gaulle in France has been weakened compared to history, and the Algerian left, although not under the jurisdiction of the French Communist Party, is an ally. The parliamentarians who supported de Gaulle did not have an absolute majority in France.

Breaking this fragile balance and turning France into a pro-socialist government is what Serov wants to do.

Since Nikolai? Since distancing himself from the Soviet Union, Ceausescu has done everything possible to emphasize the need to respect the independence and sovereignty of Romania. The request itself is very reasonable, so it is brought up at the first opportunity, even for no reason, and it becomes a mantra that can bring double dividends. Romania's special position was first and foremost exchanged for Western loans, some kind of most-favored-nation status in investment and trade, and so on.

Bucharest's leaders were keen on the role of mediator. For example, he has sought to maintain extensive contacts with Arab activists, including with Arafat and Israel. It is probably easier to list the countries in Africa and Southeast Asia that Ceausescu has not visited than it is to list the countries he has visited. The Romanian president was not indifferent to the "Non-Aligned Movement", and he greatly envied the wide popularity that Yugoslavia enjoyed in the movement. Constantly trying to tie this cosmopolitan pretentiousness to the bonds of economic relations, he introduced a wide range of Romanian products, from petrochemicals, agricultural machinery, air compressors, diesel engine linkages to aeronautical technology, automobiles and diesel locomotives.

In fact, in the internal assessment of the Soviet Union, Romania was far more wary of Moscow than Czechoslovakia in 1968, and Ceausescu's style was obviously Gaullist in Eastern Europe, but this guy was more able to play the balance beam. Although it has been provoking the Soviet Union, it has been limited to talking about key issues, such as staying in the Warsaw Pact. And did not withdraw from NATO, as France did, to test the bottom line of the Soviet Union.

It can be said that if Czechoslovakia had not changed so quickly, the Soviet troops that were supposed to attack Czechoslovakia were actually used to oust Ceausescu from power in the first half of 1968. It can be said that Czechoslovakia blocked a shot for Romania, and this conclusion is not exaggerated at all. In order to mobilize the people of the whole country to defend the motherland, Romania decided to reorganize and establish patriotic guards in factories, enterprises, rural areas, and institutions throughout the country, including infantry, reconnaissance, anti-specialty, engineer, air defense, anti-tank and other arms. In addition, the "Youth Military Training Team for the Defense of the Motherland" was later established, which was mainly composed of young people who had not yet served in the military.

The environment in Czechoslovakia is generally stable, so Romania appears far more frequently in both the KGB assessment and the Kremlin discussions, and stands out from the crowd.

The Soviet Union's misgivings about Romania have always existed, and Serov is ready to borrow this misgivings to operate this matter, and once something out of control arises, he can completely show that he is taking precautions in accordance with the opinions of the central authorities, so that maybe after things are messed up, he will not end up in dismissal.

The Soviet Union's secret preparations in Romania have always been there, but for various reasons, the leaders of the Soviet Union from all walks of life have not made up their minds to strangle Ceausescu to death, and in the end, these secretly developed forces were used by the Soviet Union's biggest traitor, Gotu, and became the death knell of Ceausescu's death.

It is a great irony that the Soviet Union, which had been preparing to prevent Romania from breaking away from the forces of socialism, was eventually used by Gotu to dismantle Romanian socialism. Once you find out that things are not right, you are afraid of being liquidated, and then you will directly become a traitor.

Just when Serov was making relevant preparations and preparing to meddle in the political situation in France, the university closed Nanterre College and ordered Cohen Bundy and eight other student backbones to be reprimanded by the disciplinary committee of the University of Paris headquarters. Perefette and the headmaster Jean? Fearing a ripple effect, Roche invited a large number of police officers to move into the Sorbonne. This is the second time in the 700-year history of the University of Paris that it has been closed, the last time because the Third Reich was not allowed to enter the campus by the police, according to French tradition, and these actions not only angered the students, but also made most professors and scholars take a sympathetic stance with the students. In the afternoon, 1,600 police officers were stationed on campus and arrested more than 300 students. The students resisted with the slogan "Give me comrade", which was suppressed by tear gas and batons, and the students and onlookers immediately erected the first barricades of the revolution on Place du Luxembourg, and the fighting began.

"The protest of the French students always did not feel like a protest in the ordinary sense, but after our investigation, we can confirm that it is a collective reaction of various socialist forces, including many components, but the largest is the International Trotskyists." Serov almost jumped to the Kremlin because he saw hope that he could leave his relationship behind. (To be continued.) )
