"Once this plan is completed, I think Indonesia will get rid of its dependence on foreign products, and its basic products will become self-sufficient, involving rubber, petroleum, metallurgy, transportation and shipbuilding industries, and we in the Soviet Union will provide a full set of equipment and technology to help Indonesia develop." Pen %Fun %Cabinet www.biquge.info President Sukarno can rest assured of this. Kosygin, the first deputy chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union, said frankly, "Indonesia has long been a dumping ground for the West in the Western market, and this situation is finally coming to an end." We are equal, and as a tropical country, Indonesia's unique advantages are a great complement to the Soviet Union, and our first secretary has great expectations for this cooperation. ”

The Soviet Union was not just expecting, it was simply expecting crazy. The Soviet Union has always suffered from the lack of imported origin of many tropical raw materials, so that it can only use artificial rubber to deal with the automobile industry, and now the situation has finally changed, and the Soviet Union does not have to be blind to China because of the rubber problem.

Indonesia's entry into the Soviet system also had a great value, and that was the Strait of Malacca, which was an important international waterway, both economically and militarily. Comparable to the Suez Canal or the Panama Canal. The Strait of Malacca is an important passage between the Indian and Pacific Oceans, connecting three of the world's most populous countries: China, India and Indonesia. In addition, it is also an important passage from West Asia to East Asia, and Japan, an economic powerhouse, often calls the Strait of Malacca its "lifeline".

Although the eastern side of the Straits of Malacca is more suitable for the establishment of ports. Singapore's geographical location is better than Penang and Malacca. But most of the shipping lanes are actually controlled by Indonesia and Malaysia, and once Indonesia fully turns to the Soviet Union, two of the world's three famous transportation roads, the Suez Canal, the Panama Canal and the Strait of Malacca, are under the influence of the Soviet Union, if not all of them control the Strait of Malacca, at least half of them. In any case, this was beneficial to the Soviet Union, and the Soviet Ministry of Defense was only hindered by the identity of the military, otherwise it would have followed Kosygin a long time ago.

Even now, when Defense Minister Marshal Malinovsky sent a telegram asking Serov about the possibility of controlling the Strait of Malacca, Serov's response was to develop the Red Navy first, and the lessons of the Cuban Missile Crisis were not profound enough. Less than three years have passed.

"The pillar industry of any country cannot be handed over to foreigners, and I believe that President Sukarno also knows this, and you must have a planned development of Indonesian rubber. This can be solved by mutual economic cooperation, we have a huge demand for rubber, and I believe that Indonesia is the same. Although Serov was talking to Sukarno, his eyes were always on the big three of the Indonesian Communist Party.

Aidi, 1st Deputy Chairman Ruckerman, 2nd Deputy Chairman Yodo, and 3rd Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Handayani. What are you still doing? If you don't speak at this time, when will you speak, withdraw from the United Nations, sever diplomatic relations with the United States, and don't join the Economic and Mutual Economic Association, will you play your own game? For countries in general, either the United States or the Soviet Union are chosen. If you don't choose a day, you must not have a good life.

And having made a choice, even if it is Cuba on the side of the United States, at least the Soviet Union itself has no problems, Cuba will always have a better life than other South American countries. Serov doesn't think Indonesia has the capacity to play its own.

"It is also a good thing for us in Indonesia to be able to develop relations with the Soviet Union on an equal footing." Third Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior Handayani first stated that among the leaders of Indonesia, he has the deepest friendship with Serov. It can be said that from the very beginning it was the goal of the KGB's assistance. From being the first deputy minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the minister to the third deputy prime minister, he could not do without the help of the Soviet Union, and Handayani was a stalwart of the pro-Soviet faction.

Subsequently, the general secretary of the Indonesian Communist Party, Aidi, the first vice chairman, Rukman and the second vice chairman Yodo, expressed their support for Indonesia's participation in the Soviet Union's economic and mutual association system. A few days later, on the first day of 1966, Kosygin, First Deputy Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Soviet Union, and Indonesian President Sukarno jointly issued a joint statement that the Soviet Union and Indonesia had reached an agreement on Indonesia's accession to the Economic and Mutual Council system.

"Yuri, won't you come with us? The first secretary is very satisfied with your work. Kosygin asked before boarding.

"I have nominally been with you in Indonesia, and I have been observing the situation for a period of time and returning home, and I have my own way." Serov smiled and said, "I'll see if there's anything else to do." ”

After two decades of independence, Indonesia officially abandoned the American system and began to adopt the Soviet model to develop the country, and the news immediately shook the world. The newspapers of the Soviet Union, including friendly countries, expressed overwhelming praise, while the newspapers of the United States and Western Europe were in a state of decline, asserting that Indonesia would definitely reach a dead end and that the Indonesians would regret it.

On the first day of 1966, the US political circles were hit head-on, and since the failed coup d'état of the Indonesian Army three months ago, Indonesia, the largest country in Southeast Asia, has been drifting away from the United States every day. And today he finally issued an official statement expressing his determination to join the Soviet system.

"We should take strong measures against Indonesia!" There is no shortage of such voices in the US military circles, and some people have even proposed to the Secretary of Defense and US President Lyndon Johnson that Indonesia should be included in the Vietnam War, and that both Indonesia and Vietnam should be resolved.

This suggestion was rightfully rejected by Lyndon Johnson, as the U.S. has not been doing well in Vietnam for more than a year. On the contrary, because of the sudden changes in Indonesia, Lyndon Johnson's domino theory was accepted, and in order to prevent Southeast Asian countries from being fully controlled, the two parties in the United States also decided to increase US military involvement and war funding.

A few days later, the U.S. Secretary of State visited Malaysia, and the United States and Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and New Zealand issued a six-nation joint defense treaty, under which the signatories would maintain and develop their individual and collective capabilities to resist armed attacks and prevent and oppose subversive activities against them by means of self-help and mutual assistance; In the event of armed aggression against any State or territory designated by consensus between the States Parties or the Contracting Parties, they will act in accordance with their respective constitutional processes to deal with the common danger; In the event of any threat or impact by any means other than an armed attack, the States Parties shall consult immediately with a view to adopting common defence measures.

"Six-nation joint defense treaty? Isn't that supposed to be a decade or so later? But the effect is the same, it is still aimed at Indonesia. When Serov saw the news in the newspaper, he was surprised but not surprised, the face of the United States was almost lost by Indonesia, and it was really unreasonable not to react at all.

The original five-nation joint defense, as the former suzerainty of Malaysia and Singapore, the British power is declining, and it is difficult to shoulder the responsibilities brought about by the "Anglo-Malaysian Defense Agreement", and intends to withdraw from Southeast Asia; The United States, on the other hand, has also thrown out the Guam Doctrine and made major strategic adjustments in East Asia, especially Southeast Asia, in which the United States assumes treaty obligations but encourages its Asian allies to assume their own responsibilities for domestic security and military defense, and the United States avoids getting involved in a Vietnam-style war. The strategic readjustment of the United States and Britain caused panic in Malaysia and Singapore, which had previously relied on the United States and Britain for security, and under such circumstances, the "Five-Nation Joint Defense Agreement" came into being.

But the current situation is different, Britain's strength has not yet fallen to the point where it cannot even hold Malaysia, and the United States has just intervened in the Vietnam War, and its national strength is still as high as it is in the sky. This treaty is obviously aimed at Indonesia, but in fact, historically, this treaty is also aimed at Suharto's Indonesia. The time is different, the situation is different, and the country targeted is still Indonesia.

On the same day, there was a rally in Jakarta, attended by more than 800,000 people, expressing support for President Sukarno.

Another day later, Soekarno, together with the general secretary of the Indonesian Communist Party, Aidi, announced the establishment of the Sukarno Socialist People's Front as a sign of a further step forward in Indonesia's socialism. The hostility between Indonesia and the United States has reached the point of undisguised proportions.

"There's a windfall to staying an extra month." Serov, who got on a warship of the Soviet Pacific Fleet, knew that his trip to Indonesia had come to a successful end, and if Indonesia and the United States could still reconcile under such circumstances, then he must admit that the Soviet Union could not win this Cold War, and talk directly with nuclear bombs.

A few days later, Serov disembarked in Vladivostok and at the same time sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Lubyanka KGB, indicating that he had arrived safely in the country, "I rub, it's a little cold this day." It's a bit used to it in Jakarta, forgetting that the USSR is now the coldest month. Serov, who was almost knocked down by the cold wind when he got off the ship, went directly to the headquarters of the National Security Service of the Primorsky Territory, which was called the inspection work.

With Indonesia's strategic position, the Soviet Union will certainly carry out large-scale military assistance to help Indonesia improve its national defense capability. But that's not something Serov can handle. The basic conditions have been laid, and the icing on the cake is that I believe that anyone can do a good job. Anyway, with the hostility between Indonesia and the United States, the possibility of war breaking out is greater than that of the better, and I believe that there will be no recurrence in Indonesia in the future, and he finally corrected history to the right track and avenged the Indonesian Communist Party.

"It's a pity that I didn't come at the right time, otherwise I would have been able to look at my rice fields." There was no way now, it was all snow, and Serov, who was drinking warm coffee, shook his head slightly. (To be continued.) )
