Chapter 734: Ukraine (Thanks to the book friend Silver Moon Demon Man for his reward)
A lot of times, it's good for everyone to be confused.
The CIA did not just plant Catherine Haigl as a pawn in Siwei Technology, so when she went up the mountain, someone had already seen this scene, but it was not until the next morning that Catherine Haigl left Ling Xiao's villa.
When the news reached Rose Byrne, she couldn't help but chuckle: women, you still have to use the weapons you are best at.
In fact, Ling Xiao didn't do anything to Catherine Haigl that night, just listened to her tell her own story.
In fact, there are not many special, ordinary people, ordinary life, Catherine Haigl spent her time in high school more as a kind of hoop tooth girl, a good student, basically no boy will like this kind of girl, until she is admitted to college.
When Catherine Haigl was admitted to college, there were more people who pursued her, but at this time, Tony Stark appeared as Iron Man, and the world changed all of a sudden, and girls began to favor superheroes more.
Later, there was indeed a person who pursued Katherine Haigl, but before he could make the next move, a big battle in the central neighborhood of Manhattan affected the poor man, so it was after the New York War that Katherine Haigl joined the CIA.
After that, S.H.I.E.L.D. disintegrated, and after the disintegration of S.H.I.E.L.D., Catherine Haigl, who had been trained for more than a year, was sent to Ling Xiao's side.
To be honest, the CIA people still took into account Catherine Haigel's very oriental delicate face and her extremely attractive figure, but unfortunately, Ling Xiao had only been in contact with her for a short time every time, which made some of the CIA's plans impossible to carry out at all.
Ling Xiao's most interested Colonel Hendry also got tangible information from Catherine Haigl's mouth, and what Colonel Hendry and those people in the Hellfire Club wanted to do in collusion was to overthrow the current government of Ukraine.
Ukraine is geographically very sensitive, it is located in the eastern part of Europe, on the northern shore of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov. It is bordered by Belarus to the north, Russia to the northeast, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary to the west, and Romania and Moldova to the south.
Ukraine has a unique geographical advantage and is an important geopolitical pivot country in Eurasia, and half of Russia's natural gas exports to Europe are used for pipeline transportation through Ukraine. In the military sphere, the importance of Ukraine cannot be ignored by the EU and the United States.
Ukraine, especially its Crimean Peninsula, which is the route of the Russian Black Sea Fleet into the Black Sea, is a sea route to Europe and the world, and its strategic position is very important.
If Ukraine joins NATO after joining the EU, NATO's guns are actually on Russia's doorstep.
And once Ukraine gets too close to Russia, then Russia will be able to influence Turkey, Poland, and the countries of West Asia and the Middle East through the Black Sea, and even enter the Mediterranean Sea through the Turkish Strait, directly threatening European countries such as Italy, Spain and Portugal, and even controlling North Africa.
Therefore, the Ukraine issue has always been the focus of contention between Russia and the EU and NATO, and the current Ukrainian President Wunukovych is neutral in his diplomatic attitude: Ukraine is neither a puppet of Russia, but also friendly to Russia and Europe.
With such a diplomatic attitude, Ukraine and Russia have vigorously carried out economic and trade development, developed people's livelihood, reformed the economy, stabilized energy supply, signed free trade agreements, got rid of the economic crisis, curbed corruption, and in the past few years, Ukraine's economy has improved significantly.
At the same time, the suspension of the Association Agreement with the EU does not mean that Ukraine has changed its approach to integration into the EU or moved away from European integration, which has long been the dominant foreign policy pursued by Ukraine and the mainstream public opinion.
This decision was made because it was not the will of Unukovych alone, and many people in Ukraine are complaining about the way the EU treats Ukraine:
The EU has made overtures to Ukraine, and if Ukraine signs an agreement with the IMF, the EU will provide Ukraine with 610 million euros in technical assistance. However, the loan was conditional on Ukraine raising the cost of housing for residents, freezing salaries and pensions, etc. These conditions are unacceptable to Ukraine.
Under the influence of various internal and external forces, especially in the eyes of the outside world, Unukovych, who was born in the Russian-speaking region of eastern Ukraine, is getting closer to Russia step by step, step by step away from the European Union, and according to the information sent back by Colonel Hendry, Unukovych is trying to amend the constitution and change the Ukrainian political system from the current presidential-parliamentary system to the parliamentary-presidential system before 2004, so that the Western world will completely lose control of Ukraine.
It was this kind of intelligence that made the US government determined to completely overthrow the Unukovych government and re-install a pro-European president from power.
But these things are all political things, what do these people from the Hellfire Club do, is it possible that they can still directly come to power as the president of a country, no matter how the politics of Ukraine evolves, it is a matter between the EU, NATO and Russia, and others can't get involved at all.
What do these people want to do, Ling Xiao frowned, everything seems to be just an ordinary coup d'état, but there must be a deeper secret in it.
However, for now, Colonel Hendry, the only one who knows about it, has been killed, and the clue to find out about their actions has been cut off.
Now we can only look at the CIA, through Catherine Haigel, Ling Xiao informed the CIA of his suspicions about the purpose of the Hellfire Club's intervention in the Ukrainian incident, and he suspected that there was something on Ukrainian soil that was attracting the attention of the Hellfire Club.
If it is said that the US government will only sneer at the interference of superhuman beings in politics, they will slap these guys hard in the political game.
But if there are certain treasures in Ukraine that can cause superpowered humans to find even if they do not hesitate to subvert a country, it will definitely attract the attention of the US government, at least the CIA, then with the CIA's capabilities, it is not difficult to find their traces in the small land of Ukraine.
Especially after the overthrow of the current Unukovych government, the CIA's capabilities will be unleashed to the maximum.
Unukovych's call to restore the 2004 constitution was rejected by parliament, and at the same time, the riots in the Lankiev region, instigated by the CIA and European intelligence services, intensified, and the government had lost control of the situation.
So in this case, Unukovych had to reach an "armistice" agreement with the opposition and agree to hold an early presidential election.
However, at this time, the parliament, whose rights were provoked, also made its own counterattack, and they signed an order ordering the release of former Ukrainian Prime Minister Tsymoshenko, the biggest enemy of Yunukovych in the political arena.
Yulia Tsymoshenko, a well-known female politician in Ukraine, was born poor, has a tough personality, has a shrewd business acumen, once monopolized Ukraine's natural gas supply, with a net worth of more than 10 billion yuan, and is known as "Ukraine's natural gas princess", "oil queen" and "Ukrainian iron lady".
The Ukrainian political figure, who is a household name, served as Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine from 1999 to 2001 and from February to September 2005. After the parliamentary elections in September 2007, she was re-elected as Prime Minister of the Government. In October 2011, Tsymoshenko was sentenced to a women's prison for opposition indictments.
Just when Unukovych's political career was in turmoil, the Ukrainian parliament dealt him a heavy blow, and Tsymoshenko was acquitted by the Supreme Executive Council.
Unukovych finally felt the deep malice brought to her by politics, the parliament, the government, the army, the people, the thugs, everyone was waiting for him to step down, and once he stepped down, he would inevitably face the fate of being liquidated, at this time, Unukovych finally made up his mind.
It was at this time that Yulia Tsymoshenko left Kiev at the time of her speech on the capital's Independence Square, calling on supporters on the Independence Square to hold on to their faith until they achieved all the expected goals.
The next day, news came from parliament that President Unukovych had been stopped by border officials and stranded in the country while trying to flee abroad, and that other allies had fled. Parliament introduced a motion to impeach him.
The parliament soon announced the dismissal of the President of Ukraine from the post of head of state of Ukraine in Unukovych, the swearing of allegiance to the people of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and the end of the coup d'état.
I don't know if I can pass the trial.
