"Neither de Gaulle's supporters nor the left-wing forces were winners this time. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Serov said to Andropov as he walked, "In fact, for capitalists, neither left nor right is the most advantageous choice. The left-wing forces have always advocated the use of the power of the state to balance the gap between the lower and upper classes, which is naturally unpopular. However, the right-wing forces are often too conservative, and one-sided protection makes it difficult for these financial capitalists to have room to play, and even the capitalists who engage in industry in this era are the enemies of those financial capitalists. ”

"So you think this is the reason why the people of the Second International are becoming more and more popular in Western Europe?" Andropov thought for a moment and said, "But the people of the Second International are followers of Engels, and nominally they do not welcome the capitalists to be too inflated. ”

"This brings us to the second question, if the hypochondria of the Socialist International really had the spirit of sacrifice, the First World War would not have broken out so tragically, those traitors had no spirit of sacrifice at all, for the bourgeoisie, they belonged to the object that could be controlled, and the communist party was different, because of the existence of the Soviet Union and the socialist camp, they would only exterminate any socialist movement," Serov lowered his head and concluded helplessly, "It's very troublesome, the Socialist Party diverted the power of socialism, More than a decade ago, the Italian Communist Party could independently confront the Italian Catholic Democratic Party, but now the same French Communist Party, which is not at all an opponent of De Gaulle's party, has to form a left-wing coalition. In the past ten years, there have been so many changes that only the Italian Communist Party and the opposition parties can now divide the world in Western European countries. ”

"How can this be reversed?" Andropov was also in a heavy mood, and his family knew about his own affairs. He was the head of the Central Liaison Department of the Soviet Union, and no one understood better than him the power of the Soviet Union to prop up the socialist forces in the world. Even if Khrushchev was not willing to engage in a head-on conflict with the United States, he did not cut the funds of the Central Liaison Department.

In many countries, the Communist Parties were in a position to suffer a heavy blow without the financial support of the Soviet Union. Andropov, of course, knew about the situation, but he also did not have a good way to solve it.

"It is certainly not okay to always give them funds, of course, this does not include the United States and Canada, in the final analysis, we still have to develop our own country, we must overwhelm the United States in strength, only this impression is generally accepted by the people of the world, can we stabilize the development of the socialist movement!" Serov also said with a very difficult expression, "In fact, considering the equalization of the income of our people, I can completely say that as long as our real national strength is 70% of that of the Americans, in my competition for the world, the country can form a scene of equal strength with the United States, and if our national strength is 80% or even equal to the national strength of the United States, this competition will inevitably be for us to suppress the Americans and give them no chance to fight back." ”

Serov's statement is actually quite cautious, and it did not expand the national strength of the Soviet Union at all, and during the Brezhnev period, the strength of the Soviet Union reached seventy percent of that of the United States, and it almost pressed the United States to fight during the strategic offensive, but the potential of the Soviet Union was not enough, and once the United States began to kill the poor and help the rich, the overdraft potential began to counterattack, and the Soviet Union could not withstand it. Converting the super-rich class of the United States into one-third of the wealth of Americans, Serov already looks up to the conscience of the capitalists.

After the dust settled on the French election, there was a period of unspeakable silence in European countries, as well as in the Soviet Union and the United States, which was different from the coverage given by the vast number of third world countries. Almost all of the European countries involved, the United States and the Soviet Union, did not know how to evaluate the election results, and for both camps, this is something that cannot be summed up in one or two sentences.

The Soviet Union could not declare this a victory for the people's justice, because the president of France was still Charles de Gaulle, and the political structure that De Gaulle himself designed could still guarantee his position as a strong president. As long as de Gaulle himself does not step down, it is estimated that there will still be a lot of quarrels in France in recent years. And in the Left League there was also the Trotskyists, the Socialist Party of the Second International.

The U.S. government even felt that after the election, France was somewhat unable to let the United States formulate its own policies. There is no doubt that the United States hated de Gaulle very much, and this man gave the United States countless troubles. But they disliked the French Communist Party even more, and the left-wing coalition led by the French Communist Party. Now it's okay, so all the elements that make Americans hate are ready.

If de Gaulle were to be violently overthrown, the US government might have taken the risk of intervening, although this is highly unlikely. But France, which is now concentrated in the United States, is also at a loss for the United States to formulate policy.

So compared to many countries outside of Europe, that kind of elation. The United States and the Soviet Union, as well as the European countries involved, reported on the incident in a very formal narrative tone, giving a cold shoulder to the French election. This is in stark contrast to the protests at the beginning.

In any case, for some right-wing parties, any left-wing party is their reason for suspicion of the Soviet Union, and this is the Cold War mentality, not to mention the communist parties of various countries, even the socialist parties and workers' parties of various countries, either members of the Second International or Trotskyists, are often suspected of being spies of the Soviet Union, and the current Prime Minister of the Labour Party in Britain has been suspected of being a Soviet spy more than once.

As long as the Soviet Union existed, the various left-wing parties were the spokesmen of the Soviet Union in the eyes of many people. Although most of these parties had nothing to do with the Soviet Union, the problem was that no one believed it. Moreover, the Soviet Union still raised the banner of socialism from time to time to preach, which made the political parties of some countries suspect that the left-wing parties in their own countries have problems with their positions from time to time.

Although both camps have treated the French election coldly, in reality it is still a defeat in the eyes of the United States, Britain and the Federal Republic of Germany, except that de Gaulle is still president, and their side has not yet completely lost. Because there is a precedent in Italy, they still see a chance to undo the impact of this protest in the future.

The value of Italy has once again been revealed, precedent has always become a reference standard after an event, since the situation in Italy was worse more than a decade ago, and NATO did not send troops to intervene, it seems that it is not impossible to use time to dilute the impact now. What's more, after the end of the spring offensive in the United States, the domestic anti-war has reached its peak. The current administration has stated that it will gradually withdraw US troops from the battlefield in Vietnam, and the United States has no public opinion to conduct military operations in France.

On the lawn of the Kremlin wall, two old men are walking side by side, both of whom are well-known in Soviet politics, Khrushchev, first secretary and chairman of the Council of Ministers, and Mikoyan, the nominal head of the Soviet Union and chairman of the Supreme Soviet, are walking in the political center of the Soviet Union with very pleasant expressions.

As far as Khrushchev was concerned, he was about to turn seventy-five years old, and it seemed that there was nothing to be dissatisfied with. Five years have passed since the first signal of retirement was released, and if he was sixty-five years old, he would definitely think about it again, and maybe he would regret it, but now there is no such possibility. Leaders all over the world already know that he is retiring.

In the current Presidium of the Central Committee of the USSR, there were no more Khrushchev's peers, except for Mikoyan. With the exception of the two of them, all the members of the Presidium of the Central Committee were promoted by Khrushchev himself.

"I'm taking a good look at the scenery here, and I may not come back often in the future." The reason why Khrushchev did not say it to death was because Brezhnev was working out the issue of Khrushchev's retirement benefits, and Serov certainly knew that Brezhnev was only bribing people's hearts by promoting Khrushchev's retirement benefits and showing that he himself was the leader appointed by Khrushchev, but Khrushchev himself did not know about it, and he was quite satisfied with it.

"I have seen the possibility of defeating the United States, but I have to say that I said at that time that I would definitely see the burial of the United States with my own eyes, and I was a little optimistic, I can only say that I saw this trend, but I will not necessarily see that day come." Khrushchev was clearly very satisfied with the international situation in recent years, as sung in a Soviet song, from victory to victory.

"Yes, we're too old and it doesn't seem like we're going to see results for a long time, but the trend is clear and can be left to the young people to complete." Mikoyan's qualifications are even older than Khrushchev, Mikoyan was already a member of the Central Committee forty-five years ago, and when Mikoyan said this, Mikoyan thought for a moment and asked, "If both of us retire, and two of the committees of the Central Presidium are vacant, who do you think is more suitable?" ”

Mikoyan was older than Khrushchev because he was older, and after Khrushchev retired, Mikoyan clearly saw that if he was still in the presidium of the Central Committee at his age, he would sooner or later be hostile, and it was better to retire with Khrushchev.

Mikoyan's political sense was very acute, and although he was never a high-ranking person, he was always an important member of the Soviet leadership, and he could see some trends.

"Andropov is a very good comrade, as for the other one." Khrushchev also fell into thought.

"What do you think of Serov, this man is young and has a lot of credit, the only question is seniority." Mikoyan mentioned that the most important reason for his choice is that Serov was born in the Caucasus. Raised by Marshal Baghera Miyan, Mikoyan believed that he had feelings for the peoples of the Caucasus. At this time, Mikoyan also wanted some welfare for his own nation, hoping that the Caucasus would be taken care of. (To be continued.) )
