Ukraine is one of the republics of the Soviet Union, bordered by Russia to the east, the Black Sea to the south, Belarus to the north, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Moldova to the west. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info≦≧

Moreover, Ukraine's geographical environment is relatively superior, affected by the warm and humid air flow of the Atlantic Ocean, and most of the area has a temperate continental climate, which is in stark contrast to the severe cold in the eastern part of the Soviet Union. Thirty percent of the Soviet Union's military industrial enterprises are set up in Ukraine, mainly concentrated in the machine manufacturing industry, metallurgy, fuel power industry and high-tech departments, mainly producing military products such as rocket installations, aerospace installations, military ships, aircraft and missiles.

In terms of aviation, Ukraine's largest is the Antonov Design Bureau, An-70, An-124 and other large aircraft, which are the strategic transport forces that the Soviet Union is proud of. The "Southern Machine-Building Plant" in the Pavlovsk Oblast and the "Pavlograd Machine-Building Plant" in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast were the largest ballistic missile producers in the Soviet Union. The SS-18 strategic missile, the SS-24 missile, and the SS-25 mobile railway-car missile, which can carry 10 nuclear warheads, are all produced by these two missile plants. ≦≧Moreover, the aerospace technology of the "Southern Machine-Building Plant" is also very advanced, and several large launch vehicles of the USSR were produced here. Ukraine also has one of the best cosmodromes in the Soviet Union: the Baikonur Space Center.

In terms of shipbuilding capacity, three of the six Soviet shipyards that built large surface ships were located on the Black Sea coast of Ukraine. The "Black Sea Shipyard" in the port of Nikolaev was the only shipyard in the USSR capable of building aircraft carriers. Now the construction of an aircraft carrier with a maximum displacement of 67,000 tons is being built, and construction of another giant aircraft carrier with an even larger displacement has already begun. Two other shipyards, the "June 1st Shipyard", also located in the port of Nikolaev, mainly built cruisers and destroyers, and the famous "Glorious" class missile cruisers came from here. The "Bulon shipyard" is located in Kerch, on the Crimean peninsula, and mainly builds destroyers and frigates.

Army equipment. There is the Kharkov Morozov Mechanical Design Bureau, one of the two main tank design bureaus of the Soviet Union, the Kartsev Design Bureau in Nizhny Tagil, the famous T-34 of World War II, and the T-64 and T-80 tanks that now make the West tremble. ≦≧

In addition to these famous ones, the rest are the "Magnit Motor Factory" in the city of Canne, the "Radio Instrument Factory" in Smera, etc. Various military-industrial complexes were established in Ukraine.

For such a hot land, Qusay has long coveted it, and now, the time is ripe, he can finally pull out his hand and start from Ukraine!

Vision. It is possible to predict what will happen in the next ten years, and it is one of the biggest advantages in the world that Qusai has come to this world, he knows what the future of the Soviet Union is, and he is deeply saddened by the decline of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex in later generations. I also feel sorry for the fate of the two aircraft carriers that were dismantled on the slipway. In this tide of history, the choice that Qusay can make is to turn all kinds of international events into Iraq's interests!

When the Soviet Union collapsed, Ukraine simply did not have enough capacity to solve the various crises it faced. There have even been many painful experiences of power outages at important facilities of the military because they could not afford to pay their electricity bills, and even important air defense bases, and those famous design bureaus. ≦≧ are struggling with their lives.

Qusay is not a savior, but Qusay can save them, for example, by moving them from Ukraine to a thriving Iraq!

Although Qusay knows. If the USSR does not collapse, then. The unipolar world of the United States will not come, and Iraq will not have the fate of becoming a puppet of the United States in the future, but the most he can do is to delay the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and it will not avoid the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and he can invest millions, or even tens of millions of dollars, to help the Soviet Union, but he cannot use all of Iraq's income to invest in the bottomless hole of the Soviet Union. Even then, it will not save the USSR, Gorbachev, who will soon come to power. Qusay is not omnipotent, and he cannot stop this tide of history, so all he has left to do is how to get more benefits from this great change in history.

Although there are five years, but from now on, it should be necessary to start preparations, and Cusai gave his main subordinate Amir, who is in charge of the introduction of equipment, hinting at a new main direction: Ukraine! Although the current Soviet Union is still as strong as it appears on the surface, all kinds of problems have begun to arise within it, and from now on, those middle- and high-level personnel will not hesitate to dig into the corners of the Soviet Union for their own interests. ≦≧ Iraq's secret arms purchases from the Soviet Union, which is actually smuggling, kicked off.

Amir received Qusay's order and understood what President Qusay meant, and he was actually good at this kind of activity.

Margaret Thatcher no longer had the composure and composure she used to have, she looked at her staff and asked, "Now, are we facing a serious crisis?" ”

No one answered, and they all felt a little tricky about the current situation.

The energy minister had no choice but to explain: "Now, the international oil price has dropped to ten dollars per barrel, and we have begun to sell at a loss, and we have to lose two to three dollars for every barrel of oil we sell, and now, the price of oil is still not reversing, and we want to continue to fall." ≦≧”

"In that case, wouldn't it be better if we stopped extracting crude oil for the time being, and we could reduce our financial subsidies?" A staff member said.

"No, that will never work, if we stop extracting crude oil, it means that we have lost this battle, and Iraq has successfully defeated us with their means. We have invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the North Sea oil fields, and if the exploitation is stopped, then those oil workers will lose their jobs, and the employment situation in our country will deteriorate even more. Thatcher said.

"But if we don't stop extracting oil, then we can't invest in the oil industry anymore, and the only way we can do it is to sell our oil industry stocks, just cheapen the Iraqis, who are hell trying to destroy our oil industry."

Margaret Thatcher was very disappointed that the guy in the Middle East was intent on completely destroying the British oil industry, and Britain was now trying to extract oil at a loss and compete with them, but this was simply not competitive. Could Britain have compromised like this?

The conditions put forward by Iraq were so hateful that Mrs. Thatcher felt that they could not be agreed to any of them, but now the situation is very unoptimistic.

She had only encountered such a thing once, that is, when she was discussing the question of Hong Kong's ownership with the country in the East, she felt a sense of powerlessness as the leader of the British Empire for the first time, and this time, this feeling came back again.

"Perhaps, we can ask the Soviets for help." At this point, one of the staff members proposed.

How is this possible, if it were in normal times, it would immediately be dismissed as? Britain, as a major Western country, has been engaged in a cold war with the Soviet Union, and Britain wants to go to the Soviets for help? That's simply unthinkable.

However, Margaret Thatcher's eyes widened and she looked at the staff: "Go on. ”

"The countries of the Middle East have joined forces to reduce prices, and our British oil industry has suffered a lot because our oil fields are all offshore oil fields and the cost of extraction is high. You know, in this world, we are not the only ones who have a high cost of extracting oil, the Soviet Union's oil fields, the cost of exploitation is also quite high, and, unlike us, now the Soviet Union almost relies on selling oil and gas to maintain their economy, the Soviet Union has borrowed many debts from the Paris Club, and in the face of the increase in oil production in the Middle East, oil prices have plummeted, and the Soviets will definitely not sit idly by. ”

None of them thought that the United States, which they trusted the most, had been playing sloppy in this matter, and did not want to use this matter to exert pressure on the countries of the Middle East, in fact, to ensure that they could enjoy the various benefits brought by low oil prices. However, the USSR will definitely not sit idly by and watch this happen, the USSR is now making money by selling energy, and now that energy is not profitable, what will the USSR use to maintain their economy?

"Is that what the Soviet Union meant by putting pressure on Iraq to reduce production, and at the same time, our crisis would be lifted accordingly?" Webb asked.

"Yes."

"But, Prime Minister, it is very difficult for us to implement this plan now." Weber said: "Because, now the top leaders of the Soviet Union are not focusing on energy at all, they are all engaged in power struggles, competing for the top position. ”

For the USSR, the issue of energy was very important, but when it came to the new issue of power, it was even more important, they had already received the news that Chernenko had been hospitalized for more than a month, and I am afraid that he was about to die, but this old man was very stubborn and had not appointed an heir.

They fought hard.

"Their power struggle may last for a month or a year, but we can't afford to wait that long, and our North Sea oil fields can't afford to delay." Webb said.
