Chapter 624: The Syrian Question

The Arab world is not a single ethnic group in the first place, and the Kurds are just one of the ethnic groups that occupy a fairly decent population base in the Arab world.

In the Arab world, it is not only the Kurds who do not have a state, but also people of different nationalities who do not have a state, and live scattered among various Middle Eastern countries.

The dream of statehood has lasted for thousands of years, but in fact, every time there is an act of statehood, it will break the blood of the head.

Fan Yize's last sentence spoke to the hearts of Salman and Mohammed, because Saudi Arabia is not a single nation-state.

"The Kurdish problem should be treated with caution, but we have to pay close attention to the Syrian problem." Salman said.

Mohammed also chimed in: "According to the information we have received, Syria is planning to order weapons and equipment for three anti-aircraft missile battalions from the Future Technology Group? Mr. Fan, do you know about this? ”

When it came to the issue of Syria before, Fan Yize had such an idea, whether these two people had a purpose or not, he could probably guess.

It is nothing more than a desire to refuse Syria's request to purchase weapons and equipment with the help of the huge order that has just been signed.

For this kind of thing, Fan Yize is not the president of the United States, and he does not need to think about his own domestic military industrial enterprises and interest groups, so Salman and Mohammed's methods are completely ineffective against Fan Yize.

"I know that the Syrian government has placed billions of dollars in weapons orders with Future Technologies, including three regional anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as a large number of man-portable weapons and various military equipment." Fan Yize said.

"Can I abandon this order?" Salman said.

As Fan Yize expected, and the result was quite obvious, he shook his head and said: "Our future technology group will open the door to do business, and will not refuse all legitimate customers, and the Syrian government's orders, we cannot give up or cancel." ”

"That's a shame." Salman is not too firm about such a thing.

The United States plans to do things in Syria, and Israel is even more jumpy, and when it comes to being in a hurry, it is not Saudi Arabia's turn to worry about it, and Salman just wants to work as hard as possible on this matter, and it is not too important for Saudi Arabia to have results or not.

People like Saddam Hussein will not have friends, but Assad is completely different, and Assad's good relations with Russia will inevitably trigger a-for-tat confrontation between the United States and Russia in Syria.

All Saudi Arabia can do is beat the side drum, and it is not the main force of confrontation.

However, as for the attitude of the future technology group on the Syrian issue, Saudi Arabia must first figure it out.

"Mr. Fan, what do you think of the Assad regime?" Muhammad asked.

"This question is a bit early, at least I still hope that there will be no turmoil in Syria now, and if there is real turmoil, I also hope that the Syrian government will play an active role in stabilizing the situation in the country.

But for those who disregard the lives of Syrian civilians, I will also take the necessary measures to stop them.

The great power game after the Cold War has evolved into a series of proxy wars, and such wars are often accompanied by a long period of civil war attrition, and it is the innocent people who are ultimately harmed.

If I had to choose a side, I would be on the side of any civilian, and it would be too early to discuss such a thing before Syria is in a larger security crisis. Fan Yize said.

Fan Yize's affirmative reply also fully stated his position, and Salman did not continue to correct. Wrap up this question.

Because Salman has already got the answer he wants, he has clearly found at this moment that the future world game in the Middle East is no longer something he can easily participate in, and he is not even qualified to participate.

Once the Future Technology Group also intervenes, no, the Future Technology Group has already intervened in the game of the Middle East world, and Salman knows very well that this competition for interests in the Middle East world will become even more chaotic.

In such chaos, Saudi Arabia basically has no chance to take advantage of the fire, but will invite retaliation from many parties.

Thinking of this, Salman also had a clear idea in his heart, that is, to watch the fire from the other side, not to participate, not even to say much, let alone take any practical actions.

Under the game of great powers, it is often a small country that perishes, which is an immutable truth.

And in the final analysis, the United States and Iraq are more anxious about the Syrian issue than he, the Saudi king, and there is no need for him to be too active and avoid offending Fan Yize.

"Regarding the fact that the Future Technology Group wants to build a super-large integrated airport and air base in our territory, we will give Fan Yize an accurate answer as soon as possible." Salman quickly changed the subject and said to Fan Yize.

This is also a trick of Salman, who specially described a super-large comprehensive airport requested by Fan Yize as a comprehensive airport and an air base.

In Fan Yize's mouth, this is one thing, but in Salman's mouth, it is two things.

The friendly signal is quite obvious, it is equivalent to Salman saying, you want an airport, but I will give you two, and one is still a clear military base.

"Thank you, Mr. Salman, I believe that no matter what happens in the Middle East, it will not affect the friendship between Future Technology Group and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, nor will it affect the friendship between me and the Saudi royal family." Fan Yize said.

At this point, the topic is almost a summary of the final relationship, and Muhammad, who is also a political veteran, also spoke:

"Many of the high-tech projects and future safety projects of the Future Technology Group are very attractive to us, and many of my brothers and friends are quite interested in the projects of the Future Technology Group, such as those flying cars, which have also become the new favorites in the garages of many of my friends, as well as the future maritime city project, I and many of my friends are very interested."

Speaking of this, Muhammad paused and asked Fan Yize: "I heard that Future Technology Group is ready to implement the space hotel plan, I don't know when we can also go to space and experience an interstellar flight." ”

Fan Yize said: "The space hotel program will not make everyone wait for a long time, we are making final preparations, and before the actual implementation begins, more than 100,000 safety verifications will be carried out, and as long as it is completed, the space hotel will soon meet everyone." ”
