Chapter 781: Heroes of Romania

The first update

The coffee placed in front of August was already cold, but the conversation between the two sides was slowly heating up, and there was no doubt that the shock of this stranger had just begun. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

August took a document from his briefcase and placed it in front of Vojnea, he pushed the lens on the bridge of his nose, and replied with a smile, "Now you need a team of professionals to advise you, Councillor Vojnea." There's no chance of beating your opponents alone, and that's where we excel. First of all, your first opponent in the party is your former good friend, Chairman Issescu. ”

Vojnea's hand holding the cup stopped, and he put the coffee close to his lips back on the table. When he heard that August was going to take Iscu as a black hand, his heart still chuckled, and he asked with some weakness, "But Isescu is my comrade-in-arms." ”

The atmosphere became a little delicate, and the next negotiations seemed to have reached a bottleneck. August wanted to tear the gap in this area, but Vojnea kept dodging the question.

"The key lies with you, Congressman Vojnea. Do you want to stay in this office for the rest of your life and never get ahead? ”

Some words are inconvenient to say, and August can only stop at the point, "If I guess correctly, there is another hidden reason why you shot Ceausescu in a hurry during the trial of Ceausescu, isn't it?" ”

When he looked at August again, the other party's eyes were a little evasive. He knew there must be other hidden secrets behind it, but August wasn't going to reveal it here. The involvement behind the National Salvation Front Committee will not be less than Ceausescu's secrets, at least $400 million in rumors came from their mouths, and the massacre is also a false accusation with no evidence, and whether the members of the National Salvation Committee behind it have ever touched the mind of the National Salvation Committee is that they died after Ceausescu was shot.

Politics is based on profit, and the dirty tactics used against Ceausescu in the first place can in turn be used against Isescu as well. If you come out to mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back.

"We can now fabricate all kinds of 'truths' and 'evidence' to slander and slander President Issescu, and if $400 million is fabricated, so can we. We just need to show the people what we want them to see. For example, unfavorable rumors against President Issescu forced him to resign from the seat of the Romanian Democratic Socialist Party and support you to come to power. It's not that hard for us. ”

August said this with a breezy voice, as if he were telling an insignificant matter. But Vojnea, who was sitting across from him, was a little bit like a pin, their plan was no longer as simple as making political donations to parliamentarians, step by step, it was clearly thinking about the rhythm of the coup!

Originally, the Kremlin called a series of actions against the Romanian top brass the House of Cards plan.

Say yes or no? This became the biggest problem in Voinea's mind. He didn't want to know who the forces behind this man named August were for the time being, otherwise it would be difficult to get rid of it once he was involved.

Even though he knew it was a danger sign, Vojnea was going to take a risky approach. If it succeeds, he will be the president of Romania. Man can never resist the temptation of power, as has been proven thousands of years ago. Otherwise, Machiavelli's writings would not have been sought after to this day.

Now Voineia is like a man who doesn't want to take any risks, but is hungry for big rewards.

So he didn't talk much, and August kept talking the whole time.

August realized that the other party had not yet accepted his new ally, and his vigilance as a politician still made VoinΓ©a choose to remain silent.

Vojnea didn't speak, but he couldn't stop, the other party was testing himself, and at the same time thinking about whether there was any interest worth getting involved in.

"Sure enough, it's a difficult old fox to deal with, and there has never been a free lunch in the world."

While secretly cursing the other party, August decided to throw out the political blueprint that had been drawn up for him in advance.

"We need to have a sound promise to improve the living standards of the people, improve the investment climate, and eliminate corruption, while also insisting on restoring Romanian values so that people can live with more dignity. This is the basis of our opposition to the ruling party. They advocate marketization and privatization, and we advocate that the government should guarantee the interests of the people. ”

In fact, what August is saying is that according to the content and improvement plan of the Social Democratic Party in 2000 in response to the state of power in the Democratic Council, brutal capitalism has bred many problems such as the expansion of the underground economy, fraudulent privatization, speculation and the loss of state assets, and that abuse, lawlessness and corruption have made the public insecure and thus affected their trust in democracy. The Social Democratic Party, for its part, promised the population to solve these problems and bring real hope for Romania's future.

Yanayev added some things to the original program, such as the question about Muslin. The Catholic population of Romania is resolutely resistant to this group of bandits from the Middle East, especially when the EU has included the admission of refugees as one of the thresholds, and Romania has shouted that it would rather not join the EU than accept any refugees. It simply exerts the anti-Islan spirit of the Duke of Piercing to the extreme.

So he also added anti-Islan to the script.

With such an incendiary platform, Isscu was elected president of Romania in the 2000 general election. However, this time Yanayev intends to use this gadget to incite the people to revolt, and history always likes to play some black humor jokes with people.

"You only get one chance, and if you miss it, you never get a chance."

"If you agree to work with us, don't forget to give us a call."

August put his business card on the table, and with all he had to say, he stood up and walked out the door. He was not in a hurry, this was just the first step in the whole huge plan, and it didn't matter if Voineia was unwilling to cooperate with him, the KGB would mercilessly remove it as an outcast.

Before leaving, August paused at the door, he turned to Voinea, who had not yet recovered from his senses, and said, "We will make you a hero of Romania, a true savior." ”

"It seems that the rebellion against Voyneya is simpler than we thought, General Secretary Yanayev."

Kryuchkov took the information from Bucharest and placed it on Yanayev's table. He said with great ambition, "Since Vojnea did not reject us at the first time, it means that we can find a breakthrough from him and then carry out a conspiracy to subvert the country." ”

After reading the documents delivered by Kryuchkov, Yanayev took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. He raised his head and said to the chairman of the KGB in front of him, "But this tough battle has not officially begun, and we should be more cautious in the future." ”

"Yes."

Kryuchkov nodded, "The next goal is to get out of Isscu, and then deny the legitimacy of Konstantinescu's election this year, and the drama of street politics can come to power." ”

Yanayev waved his hand and motioned for Kryuchkov to listen to him first.

"Vojnea needs to be repackaged, he has to come up with policies that are hugely attractive to the population."

While Issescu and his think tanks had not yet perfected the policies of the Social Democratic Party, Yanayev had to preemptively package Voynea, "the gradual reform measures of the Social Democratic Party are attractive to the broad masses of the population. The Social Democratic Party, which adheres to the principle of state intervention in the economy, calls for a steady and gradual strategy of economic transformation that minimizes the social pain of the transition. This assertion adapts to a complex mindset of most Romanians who are both afraid of change and want it. Fear of change is mainly the fear of losing one's position or job as a result of change, while hope for change reflects the desire of the population to have something new from Ceausescu's time, and gradual reform has become a compromise for Romanians. ”

Kryuchkov, who didn't care much about it, changed his expression slightly when he heard Yanayev's words, and no one in the KGB could raise a sound policy question, which was actually solved by Yanayev in a few words.

He said with some excitement, "General Secretary Yanayev, I think this idea is very novel. All countries are supporting a full-fledged transition to a market economy, and they have not considered what the impact of such turmoil will have on social classes in the future. ”

"My policies are aimed at the people at the bottom of the pyramid, not at the small group at the top of the pyramid. Because those people never considered the painful impact of the evaporation of wealth brought about by drastic reforms and drastic market transformations on the people at the bottom, the politicians at the top did not really consider the feelings of the people. ”

In 1991, Romania was the only country in Eastern Europe where more than half of the population believed that the market economy was wrong, and although about 73 percent of Romanians later chose to embrace a free market economy, the economic downturn and disappointing politics in the transition caused them to revert to communism. Until 1997, most Romanians believed that the state had to set prices and make everyone have a job.

Yanayev chose the Social Democratic Party because of the weakness of the opposition in the early years of his transition. After the political upheaval, the Social Democratic Party inherited the financial resources of the former Romanian Communist Party, which not only improved its ability to adapt to the new ideology, but also greatly increased the likelihood of electoral success.

He had previously compared himself with other political parties, such as the National Peasants' Party and the National Liberal Party, but Yanayev believed that other parties could hardly compete with the National Salvation Front and later the Democratic National Salvation Front and the Social Democratic Party in terms of organizational strength. The Social Democrats used their media resources to guide the people to vote. The Social Democratic Party is in favour of freedom of expression, politics and belief, freedom and the protection of Romanian minorities. Of course, this does not include the Muslim immigrants from outside.

"Article 51 of the 1990 Electoral Act provides that political parties are free to use the media, including television and radio, during election campaigns. However, the ruling party undoubtedly has a natural advantage when it comes to the effective use of media resources. In the early 90s of the 20th century, national television was the only television station that covered the whole country. Especially in rural areas, private television stations are not allowed to be established, and for those who lack education and live in poverty, national television becomes the only source of information. Until now, Romanian national television is still dominant, so you know what I mean? ”

The results of the 1990 and 1992 elections were a case in point, with the majority of Romanians, especially those from rural areas, casting their votes for the candidates of the Social Democratic Party. The Social Democratic Party has made use of its media resources to vigorously carry out public opinion propaganda and political communication, thus providing a good public opinion foundation for running for election and taking power.

"Media." Kryuchkov's eyes lit up, and he finally knew what Yanayev wanted to say.

"You mean to use the media to build momentum for Vojnea!"

Under article 53 of the 1990 Electoral Act, the Government provides subsidies to all political parties participating in elections, while also stipulating that political parties participating in elections are not allowed to use foreign donations. This provision prevented the candidates of the National Peasants' Party from using their accumulated assets abroad in their campaigns, while the Social Democrats, who controlled the finances of the former Communist Party of Romania, had large amounts of money for the campaign.

This puts the Social Democrats' biggest rivals at a disadvantage even before the election campaign begins. The purpose of state subsidies was to prevent bribery and bribery between political parties and their donors, and to increase public trust in political parties, but they encouraged political parties to multiply. In this way, the rabble opposition is no match for the Social Democrats. I have to say that the National Salvation Front is extremely vicious in its chess move, which is tantamount to disintegrating the vast majority of potential opponents and consolidating its legitimate status.

However, the only restriction is that Yanayev's support funds will "legally" fall into Voynea's pocket through tortuous channels.

Yanayev is very optimistic about Voinya's pawn, "The Social Democrats have decisive advantages, whether it is the financial base, connections or social influence, which are not comparable to other parties. ”

It is for this reason that the Romanian Social Democratic Party has been in power for seven years, starting in 2000.

"So what we have to do is to remove the pro-Western Iseschyla from power and push Vojnea up."

Yanayev couldn't even hold back the excitement in his tone.

"We're going to make him a Romanian hero." (To be continued.) )
