This is the Atlantic coast, West Africa, where Dakar, the capital of the Republic of Senegal, is now the titular capital of the Earth Federation.

It seems strange to choose this place as the federal capital, after all, this world line is no different from Lear's original world line, ninety percent of the world's least developed countries are located on this continent, except for poverty, disease, backwardness, ignorance, Africa has nothing.

And because the cooperation between the G3 powers in this world is far more extensive than Lear's original world, Africa has suffered more from resource plundering, although after the establishment of the Earth Federation, due to the compromise of the Federation's dignity and the emergence of a new object of exploitation, the cosmic colony, this plundering has improved slightly, but in general, Africa is nothing more than a desert of civilization.

Although Dakar, as the capital of the Republic of Senegal, an important town in Cape Verde, and also a node of Atlantic trade, is undoubtedly one of the most important cities in Africa, and the population and city built in Africa are also remarkable, but to be honest, no matter how remarkable, it is just an African city, in Lear's world line, if there is no Dakar Desert Car Rally, few people have heard of this city, and the country where this city is located Senegal belongs to those least famous countriesUntil high school, I often confused it with places like Seville and Serbia.

Compare New York, London, Shanghai, Paris, Tokyo。。。。。。 Before considering whether this is a large federal capital, it should be said that it can support the huge federal government and provide basic services for the federal government.

In fact, when Dakar was first established as the capital of the Union, it was not even possible to ensure the food and lodging of the people who had built the city, and the daily food of hundreds of thousands of people who built the city had to be transported from Europe or the east coast of North America, and it was the cartel organization 'agricultural association' that contracted the food trade.

In general, this is by no means a suitable place to be the capital, even now 79 years after the founding of the Federation, the population of Dakar is only more than 3 million, and all the necessities need to be transported from other continents, just to maintain the operation of Dakar every year, the federal government has to subsidize hundreds of billions (Note 1) of the federal currency, which can add up to create half of the main fleet of the Federation, but it is burned into the desert of Dakar as 'fuel'.

Sounds a bit stupid over the top, doesn't it?

But if you look at the history of the federation, you will know that the decision to make Dakar the capital is not a stupid move, but a choice that has to be made in order to balance all parties, mainly the G3, and this exaggerated subsidy is a so-called 'necessary' expenditure.

Everyone knows how great the advantages of the area near the capital will be, with priority supply, more subsidies, and preferential policies, it is a land of opportunity for the people, and for local governments, it can also better influence the central decision-making to favor the local.

The phrase 'at the feet of the Son of Heaven' is not for fun, the people of the capital are superior to the people of other places, this is not only the nobility of mentality, but in fact the nobility of possessing more resources.

For example, in a certain capital, I'm talking about Tokyo, so don't think about it, you don't know how much more you can enjoy than people in other regions in terms of education alone, and more than half of Japan's well-known institutions of higher learning are located in Tokyo.

Since there are so many advantages, and everyone naturally wants the federal capital to be located on their own territory, North America proposes to follow the example of the United Nations and set its headquarters in New York, after all, the Federation itself is a further extension of the United Nations, so implementing New York is also a kind of tribute to history - at least that's what North Americans think.

Of course, East Asia, which is opposite North America, is not happy, but they are not as ugly as North Americans, and they do not propose to set up in Guangzhou or Shanghai, they feel that it is impossible for the federal capital to settle in their own country anyway, and North America and Europe have the same roots, and it is impossible to sit idly by and watch the yellow race take advantage, so they simply proposed that the federal capital be set in Tokyo, although Japan is pro-Western and has a bad relationship with East Asia, but at least at their own doorstep, they can look at it at ease.

Because Europe itself is a loose confederation country, after arguing for a long time, it proposed three locations in one breath, and the beautiful name is "for the federal government to choose, no matter which city it is, it will inevitably resolutely support the federal government", but a careful look at the mental process they went through in proposing these three locations shows that they proposed these three locations without any subjective factors in supporting the federal government.

The earliest proposal was put forward by the Germans, they recommended Strasbourg, the seat of the United European Parliament, as for why they chose here, the reason is very simple, although Strasbourg is a French territory, it has belonged to Germany for a long time in history, and it is also culturally close to Germany, and the language is also common, they have the same idea as East Asia, anyway, the federal capital cannot go deep into Central Europe, so it is better to put it at your own doorstep, and you are happy to see it.

The French expressed their support for this proposal, after all, Strasbourg is French territory, but at this time the British are not happy, this lonely former world hegemon has never regarded himself as a European, although it is now difficult to join the European Union, but when the European Union was the capital, Britain had not yet joined, and now that it has joined, it is naturally impossible for the United Kingdom, known as the European-stirring stick, to sit idly by and watch the federal capital set the capital on the European continent.

So the British pulled in their big cousin in North America, and then put forward a new proposal, making Belfast the capital.

As inexplicable as it sounds, Belfast is an important port city in Northern Ireland, with a population of only 600,000 and has never been a major political centre, with no potential to become the capital of the Commonwealth.

However, this proposal was supported by North America, in addition to its kinship with the United Kingdom, because Belfast is a city facing the Atlantic Ocean and closely related to the east coast of North America.

As the quarrel continued, France compromised with Britain and began to support Brussels, the capital of Belgium, which is also the seat of the former European Joint Council, and is only separated by the English Channel from Britain.

But now the Germans are reluctant to do so, and Brussels speaks French and Dutch, is this to marginalize Germany?

Absolutely not!

。。。。。。

This is the case in Europe, and the situation between the G3 can also be further understood, and the specific process can be referred to the history of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, the Council in Brussels, and the United States first built the capital of Philadelphia, but then moved the capital to Washington.

In the midst of this noise, the first head of the Earth Federation, Ricardo Massenas, who was still a member of parliament at the time, proposed a compromise plan, that is, the capital of the Earth Federation was not placed anywhere in East Asia, North America, and Western Europe, and he suggested that the location should be chosen in Africa in the name of helping the backward regions, and the top of the G3 was not a fool (at least much stronger than those small broken countries), knowing that such a quarrel would never lead to results, since the federal capital did not fall on his old adversary, He also took a step back.

But in exchange, a large part of the authorities that were supposed to be placed in the federal capital were moved to the cities proposed by the countries, and in exchange for the support of Ricardo's proposal, the Federal Currency Reserve Issuing Agency and the Economic Council were moved to Shanghai, the Security Council was moved to New York, and the headquarters of the newly formed Federal Army was set in South America, the closest to North America, and the Federal Army then decided to build an entire underground base in the primeval jungle of Chabro, and the civilian officials who served as executive agencies were relocated to Belfast in return, The UK is committed to supporting the European integration proposal between Germany and France, the unified identity document, the connected railways and roads, etc., and increasing the investment in European integration year by year, increasing the funding by 2% per year until it reaches 50% of the total expenditure.

In the end, only the federal parliament, the nominally supreme authority of the federation, remained in Kabul.

To be honest, the Federal Assembly is important and important, this Council is not just a nominal Council with no real power, the Plenary Council of the Earth Federation composed of representatives of the member states has real legislative power and supervisory power, and the Councils and the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the Earth Federation Army cannot ignore the opinions of the Council.

But to say that it is not important, it is really not important, the biggest difference between the Earth Federation and the United Nations is that it is not a country with one vote, even if the population is only a few million small broken countries can participate in the vote, the general purpose of the Earth Federation is the unity of mankind, in order to ensure that this right will not be a mere formality like the United Nations vote in the past, the Earth Federation chooses to distribute the votes according to the population that is overwhelmingly beneficial to the G3, which means that as long as the G3 reaches an agreement, there is no suspense at all in the parliamentary vote, Of course, this is not good for small countries with sparse populations, but in the face of the force of the Earth Federation Army with the G3 as the backbone, and overwhelming national strength, the voice of small countries can be ignored, of course, even in the G3, the population of East Asia is equivalent to the sum of Europe and North America, in order to balance the power, there is only the Standing Council of the Federal Parliament composed of the G3 in addition to the Federal Assembly, and Europe and North America have a two-to-one vote advantage, which is not mentioned here.

On the whole, the Federal Parliament is not a mess like a legislator, and it is even more orderly than the plenary parliament of the European Union.

So here, it's rare to get into a mess like this, and even try to do something and be stopped by the guards, the last time something like this happened was when Jerusalem was awarded to Israel during the establishment of the Union, when the representatives of the Puritan countries in the Middle East tried to tear apart the Israeli representatives, and there were anecdotes of a certain country that shot and killed the Israeli representatives, and finally committed suicide by drinking bullets.

And the current state seems to be even worse than the situation back then.

The person who had such feelings was none other than the head of the logistics department of the Earth Federation Army, Senior General Gao Bu, who participated in this emergency plenary meeting as a representative of the Federation Army.

[Delegates, please pay attention to the order of the venue, please return to your seats——]

The current Speaker of the Earth Federation Council, an unlucky man from a small Nordic country, desperately trying to maintain discipline in the room, his hoarse voice but no one paying attention to him, made Gob feel a pang of pity.

"Why is this happening!!" The representative of Thailand said, followed by representatives of other South-East Asian countries.

"Such a miserable defeat, even Reybir himself was captured, what should I do now!" The representative of Vietnam said.

"Usually five people and six people are so arrogant, it is very refreshing to let my country go out of the space development and maintenance funds, but at the critical moment, we did not protect our country, my country agreed to bear the funds out of trust in the Federation, in this way, my country must reconsider the issue of bearing federal funds - not only the funds of the Space Army, but also the maintenance costs of extraterrestrial development and Kabul, we must reconsider!" He was followed by the representative of Cambodia.

Similar to the speed difference on the Zeon side, the Federation side was not much later than Deggin and the others, and received the news of the defeat of the Space Army, and then the Federation quickly convened an emergency meeting of the whole parliament after the G3 meeting, and then this chaotic scene followed.

[If you have any questions, don't affect other people's speeches-]

The Speaker was still trying to maintain order, but Gobb felt that the protesting delegates had no Speaker in their eyes, and their faces were facing the podium where the Speaker was standing, but their eyes were fixed on the G3 delegates who were grim-faced and speechless.

"Now that the Space Army has been defeated, what should we do next, whether we want to resist, or do we want to negotiate peace with Zeon, and I don't even have any intention so far?" When it comes to the question of whether the war will continue, it is the representative of Chile, for them, who are next to the Chabro base in South America, it is really too much psychological pressure to continue the war, and if the war starts, they will inevitably be involved in the war.

"The fleet is all wiped out, and now there is no way to talk about resistance, we can only negotiate peace, right?" The Bulgarian representatives, because their country was located in the Balkans, and the countries around the Mediterranean that had been barely traumatized during the British war, were naturally reluctant to get involved in the war against Zeon, which had changed for the better with the deterioration of other countries.

"Anyway, our country has no interests in the universe at all, and if we can reach an agreement with Zeon to stop the invasion of the earth, it is not impossible, and the universe will be over for them!" It was the representative of Mozambique who said this, and the small African countries are often in arrears even with federal funds, let alone any cosmic interests, for them, what cosmic things, most citizens do not even have this concept.

[Now we are not talking about the question of negotiating peace or continuing the war, it was Zeon who started the rebellion first, and we cannot 。。。。。。 the rebels 】

The speaker tried hard to promote the initial consensus reached by the G3 at their previous meeting, but his words drew a chorus of boos.

"To say that Zeon is a rebel, what is the Space Army defeated by the rebels? Bandits? ”

"It was because of the incompetence of the Space Army that the situation deteriorated like this, and didn't you assess the consequences of the war before the war began?"

"We also need to reconsider the issue of military command, and we must not let the incompetence of the Joint Chiefs of Staff affect our army, and we must consider reintegrating the army into the command of our own generals."

It was the representative of the Gambia who said this, and his words made the face of the representative of the Joint Chiefs of Staff twitch, although he had no military talent, but after all, he was in charge of the logistics of the entire federal army, and naturally knew the situation of the Gambian army, and it was only after being incorporated into the federal army that it could be changed into a unified military uniform, and the ancient Soviet-made weapons were replaced by Type 61 tanks and Type 72 rifles, and the discipline was lax, he couldn't help but think to himself, such an army The Federal Army wanted to say that it was necessary to consider whether it was to command.

"There is also the Permanent Council, the current predicament is undoubtedly related to the incompetence of the Permanent Council, and we call for the re-election of the Permanent Council。。。。。。"

Before the Gambian delegate got carried away, he was interrupted by the representative of another country who was afraid that this idiot would not hesitate to speak, protesting is one thing, it is to force the G3 to force the palace, but to directly demand that the G3 step down is pure death.

[The unification of the command of the federal army is the basic national policy of the federation, which cannot be changed。。。。。。。 】

Before the speaker could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a loud shout containing anger.

Gao Bu was also taken aback, he looked closely, but it was the representative of Australia, unlike the representatives of countries that had some irrelevance to themselves, and even gloating, although the representative of Australia was still dressed strictly and neatly in etiquette, but his red and swollen eyes, and the bloodshot in his eyes really couldn't hide it.

"The unified command of the federal army is a basic national policy, I admit," the Australian representative almost roared: "Then the federal obligation to assist the affected countries is also a basic national policy!" ”

Ah, I see, Gob reacted.

If there was to be any question of which country suffered the heaviest losses in the British War, it was neither East Asia nor North America, nor the G3 or any other country.

It's Australia.

The largest fragment of Ishfi Island, which was dropped to the earth by Zeon during the British War, did not fall into the sea, but directly hit the main Australian city of Sydney, but although the fragment hit Sydney, it affected the most prosperous and populous southeast coastal area in the whole of Australia, where ninety percent of Australia's population is located, and the British War directly wiped out the southeastern territory of Australia, forming a huge deep pit visible to the naked eye in the universe - the Sydney Sea.

Australia is almost a country that can be regarded as annihilated, the Australian capital Canberra, which is also located on the southeast coast, has also been completely wiped out, unlike other governments that can still maintain operations, the Australian government has completely collapsed, the society is in a state of anarchy, for the Australian representative, there is no homeland behind him, there is no backing, there is not even a person to pay him a salary, and he is still working hard here, completely for the sake of the affected compatriots behind him.

However, the attitude of the Federation - G3 made him despair.

The G3 does not want to help Australia, they themselves urgently need all kinds of supplies to restore order in their country, there is no room to help Australia, and Australia cannot reciprocate, Australia is finished, they have no value.

"We, Australia, trust the Federation, and Australia is the first country to join the Federation," the Australian representative patted the table, his eyes red again: "During the Great Migration Period, Australia's airports took on the immigration of more than 100 million people!" ”

"And now, tens of millions of people in Australia have died because of the incompetence of the federal army, and this is only a direct death, starvation, disease, and many more!"

"Isn't the will of the Federation the co-prosperity of mankind? Australia believes in the spirit of the Federation, Australia has always been a good Union country, we have fulfilled all the responsibilities of the Union countries, and even dedicated the land to turn Triclington into a base for the Union Army! ”

"But why wouldn't the Federation help us? Why is my request repeatedly delayed? Don't you know that more people die every day? ”

"I don't want to hold anyone accountable right now, I don't care about fighting Zeon or making peace, I just need help, I need food, clothing, fuel, I need doctors and medicine, there are a lot of people, as long as you give a little help you can survive!"

"If you don't want to help Australia, please tell me bluntly, and I can go back to my country and be with my people now," the Australian representative slumped in his chair, covering his face and crying: "I failed to live up to their hopes and failed to bring supplies, but 。。。。。。。 But at least I can help them bury the bodies. ”

There was a moment of silence, but then there was an even greater wave of opposition, with some denouncing the inhumanity of the G3 delegates and others shouting that their own countries had also been affected and asking for assistance.

But in general, no one really sympathizes with Australia's situation, and they are not for Australia, but for their own country.

There's nothing wrong with that.

Ah—that's probably the level of chaos back then," Gobb thought to himself as he watched the Australian delegate leave angrily and sadly.

Of course, in fact, Gaub had not seen the scene of that year, he was not born 80 years ago, and it was impossible for him to witness such a scene, if only from the current situation, the fact that no one tried to shoot opponents seemed better than the situation back then, at least people were much more sensible, but in fact, he still couldn't help but feel that the current situation was a hundred times worse.

Although someone used to shoot at this venue, it was just a disgust to G3, but in fact, the situation was completely under G3's control.

At that time, the countries of the Middle East and the Middle East oil tyrants of the Lear world line, it was not the same thing for me to buy today's OPEC tyrants with oil, and even the OPEC organization in this world was dissolved shortly after its establishment in 1960.

Its source lies in the rapid development of nuclear energy, although it has been more than 100 years from the nuclear energy technology of the year to today's miniaturized MS nuclear fusion furnace, but in comparison, the speed of practical application and complete popularization of nuclear energy technology in this world line is far beyond Lear's world line, and the complete elimination of oil energy supply has forced it to become a pure chemical raw material, although it has also passed a period of time, but there is no oil as a trump card that chokes the throat of other countries, and the road to the rise of oil tyrants has become completely delusional.

At the time of the establishment of the federation, the countries of the Middle East that had no external blood transfusion after the weak reform were just underdeveloped countries with rampant religions, ignorant people, weak economies, backward science and technology, and no irreplaceable resources, and their status in the global village was only slightly higher than that of African countries, and they were not the same as strong regional powers like Israel, so after paying a certain price, North America and Europe achieved the acquiescence of East Asia, and Israel was regarded as the watchdog of the barren land of the Middle East. Propped up by the Western world, so that they don't have to deal with the troublesome hooligan Puritans, they just need to throw these uncivilized savages to Israel.

This may sound contrary to the spirit of helping underdeveloped regions and common prosperity of mankind when Kabul became the federal capital, but Africa has not only oil but also a large number of other resources, while the sand of the Middle East has almost no other valuable resources without oil, and compared with Africans who are easy to submit to power, Puritan Middle Easterners are more troublesome, more stubborn and difficult to operate.

Naturally, he will abandon his pawn to protect the handsome, which is also a matter of course.

Since it has become the consensus of the G3 to let Israel deal with Middle East affairs, let alone that these Puritans are just firing guns at the venue, even if they collectively blow themselves up at the venue, it will only be exchanged for harsher purge and suppression by the G3 and the federal army.

But now。。。。。。。

But this scene is different。。。。。。 Gao Bu couldn't help but sigh, on his extremely fat big face, the pair of small eyes that narrowed into slits revealed a fine light that was indeed extremely inconsistent with his body shape.

Gobb didn't expect that Reybir would be defeated, and it was such a tragic defeat, and the reason why the small countries that had suffered heavy losses in Zeon's British War did not dare to speak out was because of the Federation Army, the Federation Space Force fleet, which claimed to be the strongest in mankind.

However, with Rebier's defeat, the Federation Army, which had suffered heavy losses, no longer had the deterrent power to these countries, although even the remaining space fleet completely crushed these small countries with only space cargo ships, and the G3 still controlled enough ground forces to engulf all countries, but the G3 was now busy with disaster relief due to the losses of the British War.

Moreover, it is impossible for the G3 to have another unification war under the current situation of the great enemy Zeon, because in the face of the pressure of these small and medium-sized countries, the G3 and the Federal Army were unable to deal with it well for a while.

No, the crux of the matter is not in these small countries, but in 。。。。。。。

Gao Bu glanced at the venue and found several representatives of countries who were out of place with their surroundings and seemed to be sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai area.

They did not participate in the denunciation of the federal government, the federal army, and the permanent council by the small countries, but sat nervously or with the old gods in place, in stark contrast to the grim-faced, wordless G3 representatives.

Some of these countries are countries that are particularly close to the G3 countries, such as Japan, South Korea (Note 2), and Cuba, and have been particularly badly injured in the British War, and they are in dire need of support from the major powers at their doorstep, so they dare not go against the will of the great powers.

The other was different, they looked at the scene with a mentality similar to that of a chess player, and Gao Bu took a closer look to see who else it could be.

It's just Russia, India and Brazil, and if you look closely, there's an Italy in the corner.

The national strength of these countries far exceeds that of miscellaneous fish countries such as Cambodia and Gambia, but they are far inferior to such superpowers as East Asia, Europe, and North America, and even Italy itself is part of the European Union, but it is not as silent as the representatives of other European Union countries, but does not stop standing up and shouting two words.

There are not many first-class countries like this, but they are enough to become the backbone of this protest against the G3, and they do not come forward in person, but use other small countries to test the movement of the G3, which is nothing more than the word 'profit'.

In the Earth Federation, the status of such an upper-middle country is very embarrassing, they don't have the strength to challenge the G3, but they can't kneel like other small countries, and the G3 is also worried about their potential, suppressing them openly and secretly, East Asia often targets India, Europe stares at Russia, North America suppresses Brazil and makes it unable to move, naturally now that G3 is in trouble, they come out and beat the water dogs.

And very coincidentally, none of these countries were too badly affected during the British War.

Although India faced the Pacific tsunami, but its other side is facing the Indian Ocean, and the coastal core area of East Asia is not the same as the extent of the disaster, the east and west coasts of North America were hit at the same time, and a large number of satellite fragments fell on the land, and Brazil was also hit by the Atlantic tsunami, but the same degree of damage is far less than that of North America, not to mention Russia, it spans two states, but only Asia Vladivostok, Kamchatka, and Sakhalin were affected, and the core of Europe and Russia was unscathed. The big three of European unity, Britain and France, have all suffered heavy losses, and even Italy, which is located in the Mediterranean, which is not affected by the disaster, is ready to challenge Britain, France and Germany as European leaders.

It sucks.

Gao Bu has no military talent, and even his character is not very good, and it is not uncommon to use power for personal gain and enrich his own pockets.

But this does not mean that he does not care about the survival of the Federation and the Federal Army, on the contrary, he knows more clearly than anyone that the existence of the Federation and the Federal Army is his foundation, although he is not good at fighting, but he has a clear understanding, will not be a layman to guide the insider, cross the border to interfere in the work of those generals who can fight, and he will spare no effort to protect the interests of the Federal Army.

Because he is the one who most wants the Federation Army to live forever, he is a villain, and he understands that only the stronger the trunk of the Union Army, the better he can get.

It is precisely because of this disposition that Rebir believes that Gaub will resist the pressure of the Space Army during the battle, and even after being captured, entrust the vital Luna II to Kaningan, who is in charge of the overall situation for the first time.

Because Rebir knew that Gob must know the current situation and knew what to do to be better for the Federation Army and himself, he would definitely spare no effort to help Kaningan defend the Moon God and help the Space Army survive this catastrophe.

And Gob was about to do this, at this time when Kaningan had just led the team back to Luna, and even some of the scattered retreating warships had not yet returned to the Luna Fortress, and Gob was already thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of him.

In any case, the Space Army must be saved, but only if it 。。。。。。 Kaningan must defend the Luna Fortress, if the Luna is lost, the Space Army will have no meaning of existence, and if the Space Army declines, he, the logistics director, who handles dozens of warship manufacturing contracts every year, probably will not have good fruit to eat, and he can't continue to collect benefits is secondary, for fear that the Federation will liquidate the culprit of the defeat, although Rebir is the commander-in-chief of the Space Army, but it is impossible for himself who is responsible for supervising the construction of warships not to be implicated, if the matter of collecting benefits is exposed, then he will be finished.

Gobu is determined to convince G3 to fully support Luna's defensive battle no matter what.

For the rest, the problem of the ground army can be alleviated, as long as Zeon does not capture the luna, it is impossible to directly attack the earth, which means that as long as the luna 2 is held, the ground army will not have a direct right to speak, even if there is any dissatisfaction, it is difficult to attack at this time, at most say some cold words that do not eat.

As for those small countries, they can't set off the storm, the G3 has not yet reached the point of extinction, even countries such as Russia and India have not the strength to confront the G3 - even the G3 after the disaster, and the heads of the G3 are very clear-headed, they know what to do, and they will not do anything to destroy the Great Wall.

Even so, it is not entirely expected that their minds will be clear, and sometimes the superior is also involuntarily, so it is better to ventilate in advance, and Gao Bu decided to communicate with the G3 side after he goes back, so as not to tear each other down.

And then there'。。。。。。 Rebir's own problem, the Space Army is not monolithic, to suppress all aspects of the Space Army, Gob thinks he can't do it, and Thiam and Kaningan can't do it either.

The leader of the Space Army must also be Reybier.

Are you going to save Rybil from Zeon? Gobb couldn't help but have a headache, anyway, let's contact Zeon's internal connections first.

Daken faction, who else will come in handy?

Gobb thought about it as he couldn't help muttering:

"Damn, you're giving me a big problem, Reybier."

———— Dividing Line————

Note 1: This value sounds exaggerated, but in fact, I think it should be quite reasonable, after all, there is a precedent that a city will spend billions of RMB a year just to subsidize the urban subway。。。。。。

Note 2: North Korea did not exist because there was no intervention by the volunteer army of a certain country in this world line, and the Soviet Union, which did not personally end up, sat back and watched the United States support the reunification of the Korean peninsula.
