"According to the latest news from this station, at 17 o'clock in New Delhi time, in the disputed waters between Somalia and Kenya, because the relationship between the sovereign territorial sea baselines of the two sides has not been formally determined, a dispute of interests involving many parties has been triggered.

Three days ago, Kenya's Ministry of Energy invited bids to develop what Kenya calls a gas field in its territorial waters, which has long been disputed between Kenya and Somalia. To this day, both sides have declared sovereignty over this area of water, and there has never been a conversation, and the International Court of Justice in The Hague has never offered arbitration.

Kenya's tender for the field attracted competition from many large international energy companies, and was eventually awarded the exploration and production rights by France's Total Petroleum Company, the American Anadarko Petroleum Company and the Italian National Oil Company. Just as the exploration vessels of the three companies arrived in Kenya and were conducting energy exploration in the area, they were discovered by the Somali Navy, and all the crew members of the three exploration vessels, including Kenya's Minister of Energy, Martin, were arrested for violating Somali sovereignty.

Subsequently, the navies of the United States and its allies immediately rushed to the area where the incident occurred and demanded that the Somali navy release all the people and the three exploration ships on the grounds that Somalia had illegally detained citizens of the United States, France, and Italy, and apologize to the three countries and pay compensation for this.

The Somali Navy ignored this and escorted the three arrested exploration vessels and nearly 100 crew members and exploration workers to the port of Mogadishu and were taken away by the Somali Maritime Rights and Interests Department.

Somalia's attitude has further heightened tensions in the waters bordering Kenya, where the navies of both sides have so far confronted each other. Whether there will be further clashes can only be hoped for restraint on both sides. ”

"We just got the news. Half an hour ago, a spokesman for the Somali Ministry of Defense issued an official account on the naval standoff. The main content is to further emphasize the determination of the Somali Navy to protect its territorial waters and interests, and to protest against the joint naval fleets of the United States, France, Italy, Japan, Australia and other countries, saying that their actions are to turn black and white upside down and maliciously instigate Kenya to provoke a dispute with Somalia over maritime rights and interests, which is an extremely dangerous signal of war. If this behaviour is not stopped, all branches of the Somali military will be ready for an all-out war to that end.

Shortly after the statement of the Somali Ministry of Defense was issued, the Somali Ministry of Foreign Affairs also officially lodged a very stern protest to the Kenyan side, saying that if the Kenyan side continues to be entangled in Somalia, the Somali side will take a counter-attack. Among them are the means of warfare. ”

……

The Indians, who have always regarded the Indian Ocean as the Indian Ocean, paid great attention to the naval confrontation that took place in the Indian Ocean, and Li Lan, who had returned to the hotel to rest, turned on the television set and found an English-language channel at random, and soon heard this report.

It seems that because Li Lan is in India, the Indian media reported on the matter, and there was a lot less bias. But. None of this had anything to do with Li Lan, and he became aware of this matter after the end of his talks with the Indian president and prime minister, and he did not say anything about it. Just let the military do the job.

And what he was thinking more about was this trip to India, and the results of this trip were naturally not satisfactory, and the conditions between the two sides could not be negotiated at all. The Indian lion opened his mouth, and he could not answer. And India's conditions for him are also difficult to accept.

Things are clear enough. This meeting was an attempt at how the relationship between the two sides would develop, and the result was naturally unsatisfactory.

In the relations between Somalia and India, both sides lack a lot of common language, and both are bordered by the Indian Ocean, and they are the two most powerful countries in the Indian Ocean.

With this level of relationship, both sides will naturally form an antagonistic point, and they will consciously be wary of each other, and the basis of the conversation will naturally not be very good.

If the conditions were the same, then Indians would not have considered Somalia, and would have chosen the United States or Russia. In addition to the conflict of interests between the two sides, there is another starting point, that is, India is not optimistic about Somalia's chances of winning in this international confrontation.

Compared to the traditional United States, ten active carrier battle groups, coupled with a strong industry and economy, as well as those mothballed weapons and combat readiness, are not something that Somalia can compete with. And there is a NATO behind the United States, even if Russia always wants to break up the relationship between Europe and the United States, but it has not been very effective.

The Indians know this very well, so unless Li Lan gives a more favorable bargaining chip, the Indians will definitely not cooperate with Somalia. In the same way, the Americans also understand this, so in the conditions offered to India, many issues have been taken into account, and they have also given the Indians a very exciting bargaining chip.

In addition, the current Indian leaders have a very bad attitude towards both Chinese and Muslims, and various factors are involved, so Li Lan naturally cannot give conditions that satisfy the Indians.

Although the two sides have also carried out some cooperation in some aspects, the relationship between the two countries in the future is not something that can be influenced by some small cooperation and trade exchanges, and Li Lan is extremely clear about this.

He is also very convinced that if Somalia is going to be unlucky in the future, India will be the most likely to fall into the ground.

However, in the final analysis, the relationship between India and Somalia still maintains a balance point, and India does not want to fall into confrontation with Somalia, so Li Lan can only maintain this situation as much as possible until it becomes inevitable. In this way, you can at least buy yourself more space and time.

"Bang!"

The sound of the door closing, Li Lan's eyes twitched, and then asked, "Why did you come back so soon?" Didn't you arrange a cocktail party? ”

Natasha, who was dressed in a dress, stretched lazily, walked to the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of wine, handed one of them to Li Lan, and said: "It's a very boring drinking party, besides, without your savings, heaven is also lonely." ”

Li Lan smiled slightly, wrapped her arms around Natasha's slender waist, and the latter twisted to sit on his lap and said, "My master, why are you so proactive." Aren't you afraid that Madame will see? ”

"Don't play dumb." Li Lan said: "You women can still hide the whispers between you. ”

When Natasha heard this, she smiled, leaned over to Li Lan's ear and said with a smile: "Don't you want to?" ”

"It's not ...... now" Li Lan was about to say something, but before he could say anything, one of Natasha's hands had already touched little Li Lan.

"You ......"

Li Lan was about to stop such behavior, but he had no chance, and Natasha took the initiative to close his mouth. Men have always been very poor at controlling zhì in this regard, let alone the two who have had N intimate contacts.

Whether it is Natasha or Li Lan, they quickly entered the state, after a minute or two of hot kisses, Natasha was already in spring, the hands below still did not stop, and there was a look of charm on her face, and she said in a greasy voice: "The master is so ruthless, he has snubbed Natasha for so long, if there is no lady to speak, then do you want us to be single for the rest of our lives." ”

"That's not ......" Li Lan, who had all her wisdom suppressed endlessly, wanted to explain very clumsily, and Natasha didn't give him any chance, this time she used her fingers to gently seal Li Lan's lips.

Natasha then smiled and said, "Over the past two years, Natasha has learned a lot of moves, and now let me serve my master well." ”

Skillfully pulling and pulling, Natasha slowly slid down Li Lan's lap and squatted on the carpet......

Half an hour later, with Li Lan's rough breath, Natasha covered her mouth and ran towards the bathroom, followed by a retching sound.

Looking at the messy little Li Lan, Li Lan could only take the paper and wipe it by herself.

When he finished tidying up, Natasha came out, looked at Li Lan's face with a little more embarrassment, and said embarrassedly: "The first time I practiced, next time it will be much better." ”

"Haha......" Li Lan laughed lightly when she heard this, remembering all the past, and said, "My heart is balanced." ”

Embarrassed, Natasha changed the topic very sensibly and asked, "Do you really plan to send troops to Kenya?" ”

The smile on his face instantly retracted, Li Lan nodded, and said, "Although it is a little different from the original plan, from the beginning of the Kenyan bidding meeting, it is all doomed." Perhaps the Kenyan government thought very well and wanted to use external factors to divert internal contradictions, and the NATO countries also offered a very high price, but they made an absolute mistake and treated us as an adversary. ”

"But we still have to prepare to support the Houthis in Yemen, so isn't it a two-sided war?" Since she took the initiative to shift the topic to business, Natasha is also fully devoted.

"For the Houthis, we can only provide the necessary air support, but for Kenya, we must stand up for a short period of time and deter the surrounding countries." A cold light flashed in Li Lan's eyes, he hated that others didn't take him seriously, this time Kenya completely obeyed NATO, which made him extremely annoyed, plus the mission of the base, some things are also sooner or later, rather than continue to drag on, it is better to cut through the mess now.

"I'm worried that this fight will be difficult to calm down." Natasha said.

"No, it's not that I say that NATO doesn't have the guts, but that their citizens can't allow a country to go to war with us for an African country. At least, not in its current form. ”

Li Lan shook his head, he had also considered this matter and believed in his own judgment. If it is true as Natasha said, it is also a doomed war. (To be continued......)
