Chapter 832: Verbal Sword
At a time when the situation in the Middle East is deteriorating and the war situation is about to slip out of control, the arms aid from the Eastern and Western worlds is naturally a timely rain after a long drought, but thinking of the Syrian rebels and the Iraqi Freedom Party, which have been on the offensive recently, and Israel, which has always liked to cause trouble, the smile on Commissioner Waleed's face gradually disappeared, and he felt that it was a little too early to be optimistic about it.
Well, no matter what, the long-awaited military aid finally came.
Recalling that a few days ago, Waleed was naturally pleased to receive secret information from the headquarters of the Arab League that the lengthy arms sales talks had finally come to an end, and that the two major blocs of Eastern and Western countries had agreed to relax export restrictions on stealth fighters, precision-guided weapons, and electronic countermeasures systems on the premise of appropriately revising the "Agreement on Complete Stealth Fighters and Technical Control." Waleed was naturally happy.
Although Mansour Waleed himself is not a professional soldier, he also knows that the air force ALSA, which belongs to the Arab League, has always been accustomed to using twin-engine heavy fighters and has always been resistant to light fighters; The purchase of medium fighters has been repeatedly delayed, and it is also because of this that the relevant countries have now relaxed export restrictions, which is of course a good thing for ALSA.
Of course, after the arrival of the fighters, they still need to carry out adaptive training and equipment run-in to form combat effectiveness, and Waleed asked himself that he was a complete layman, and he planned to find the head of the military or a senior officer of ALSA after arriving at the hotel to ask about the specific situation, and discuss it before making plans.
Looking at the current situation in the Middle East, there is a possibility that the situation will deteriorate further. Well, whether it's ALSA, or the League of Arab States. It is necessary to be ready for battle.
Meditate in your chair all the way. The Mercedes-Benz sedan soon arrived at a five-star hotel in the bustling city, and as Waleed stepped out of the car and stood outside the columned porch, Waleed casually glanced at the fiery sunset in the western sky before striding through the glittering hotel door.
With years of professional hunch, he can now sense that a violent storm that will sweep across the Middle East may be coming soon.
……
Dusk, slowly turning into night. The loading and unloading of Alexandria continues.
The perspective continues to the west, across the vast Atlantic Ocean to another continent, and the sun is still shining westward, in the United States New York Manhattan, in the United Nations headquarters building, in the Security Council chamber of the United Nations headquarters building, a round of regular discussions is going on at this time.
In the spacious, open, brightly lit Security Council Hall, overlooking a huge mural created by the Swedish artist Kroger, well-dressed representatives of various countries sit around the horseshoe-shaped open round table, all of which are present today. In contrast to the situation where everyone on the periphery was seated upright, the long table in the middle of the horseshoe-shaped round table was empty, as agenda item SC/15460 was not an informal meeting today, and it seemed unlikely that a communiqué would be issued. Thus, during the free debate time, the Secretary of the General Assembly and other staff members can also take a short break.
Immerse yourself in the calm atmosphere of the council hall. All the delegates present were looking through their tablets or scrolling through printed paper, and the materials in their hands were basically reports submitted by the Syrian government, the Arab League and other countries, the most important of which was an official Syrian complaint.
In this dozens of pages of complaint, the Syrian Republic has complained at length against the European Community, cited a lot of evidence in various forms, protested against the brutal intervention of the European Community coalition forces in the Middle East, the threat of force against many countries, including Syria, and the "no-fly zone control" This action is completely illegal, and demands that the UN Security Council immediately intervene.
In recent months, almost all of the affairs dealt with by the Council have been related to the Middle East, and the veracity of the allegation at hand is well known to those present after reading all the materials.
What the European Community did, even if no evidence was submitted, was it not lice on the bald head, or it was obvious?
Although both the UNPF and the UN observer mission suffered a series of attacks in Syria during the previous Syrian insurgency conflict, and have not taken any further action since then, sending peacekeeping troops or observers to the fire pit in the Middle East, the United Nations still has the ability to collect and confirm evidence through various channels, and the ECJA's vicious actions in the Middle East skies are not a day or two, and the matter is very clear.
However, mixed with a large number of accusations in Syria and the Arab League, some people also dug out a protest letter from the Syrian Liberal Party, although the rebel Liberal regime is not yet qualified to join the United Nations, but it also has a channel to submit materials, which reads "Protest against the shooting down of the FSA fighter plane by the European Community Coalition Army" -- this kind of wording, put together with other materials, makes people very incomprehensible, the European Union has not always favored the Liberal Party, why they are now starting to accuse each other, Could it be that there is some conflict between the two that no one else knows?
Compared with the current situation in Syria, the European Union and the rebels naturally paid no attention to this bit of, so after a brief buzzing discussion, the Argentine representative on duty this month rang the electric bell and signaled everyone to be quiet, and then someone expressed their opinions in order:
"With regard to the series of attacks that have taken place in the Middle East in recent days, our view is: 'basically true';" The first to speak was the representative of the United States, Jahn Blair, who strengthened his tone by gesturing as he spoke. If not, then we must immediately stop and put an end to such acts, which do nothing to contribute to regional peace. ”
"Ah, that's not the case! -- Mr. Blair, "
As he spoke, his expression became a little excited, and Alan Maxell, the representative of the European Community, who sat behind the "EuroCommunity" sign, raised his hands in an exaggerated manner and waved his hands; And the Arab face deputy next to him also looked eager to try, but he felt the indifferent gazes cast in the venue, and he still sat honestly and did not say a word:
"We have reiterated on many occasions that our intervention in the situation in the Middle East is entirely for 100 per cent peaceful purposes, and that many of our member states of the European Community do so out of 'history and-'"
"-- 'and the consideration of national feelings' is it!"
Unlike the representatives of most of the countries present, the hot-tempered representative of Ghana shouted and intercepted the words of the representative of the European Community, and he had lost patience with the back-and-forth debates in the Security Council, and the country he came from had nothing to do with the European Community. A bunch of boring guys. ”
"You, you, you—"
Naturally, the representative of the European Community was very indignant and shouted loudly from his seat.
Unlike in the early years, when a group of people in suits were polite and talkative, the current UN Security Council has increasingly become a powerful body for maintaining world peace, the coercive nature of resolutions has become more obvious, the rhetoric in the meeting hall has become more and more realistic, and the forces of all parties involved will naturally become more pragmatic, and no one will talk about those useless red tape.
In front of everyone's eyes, Maxell, who felt offended, raised his hand and pointed to the representative of Ghana, who gathered up his things in front of him as if no one was around, sat on the chair and looked left and right, and looked again, without any intention of answering, and smoked the seven points of the European Community representative's anger:
"When did there be such a rule in the discussion of the Security Council, no one else could interject when I spoke!"
"Isn't what this gentleman is going to say?"
Probably sitting in the chamber for too long, the tired Russian representative Anton Petrov put down his glass of water and casually made a joke, he raised his hand and yawned a lot, "Anyway, that's what you say, isn't it?" I don't think a coalition of countries that do not abide by the relevant United Nations resolutions and enforce the law on the territory of other countries probably won't care about this little thing in the room, Mr. Maxell, do you think so? ”
"How-how-"
"Yes, Maxell, the European Community has been very active lately, is there some improvement in your country's economy? But why haven't I heard from the economic statistics department, are you European Community hiding and falsely reporting the statistics on the unemployment rate and crime caliber, haha! ”
Seeing that Aaron Maxell's face was wolf, the representative of the United Kingdom next to him sneered and added a few words.
In the face of the ridicule of the representative of the United Kingdom, before the representative of the European Community blushed and retorted, Wu Xiuquan, the Chinese representative next to him, also cleared his throat and reminded Mr. Maxell, who was already sweating profusely, "Oh, if the economy really improves, don't forget to pay the arrears of membership dues, and kindly remind you that the daily late fee for membership dues is 3/1000, no thanks." ”
"You, you—you're clearly making a difficult statement!"
"Haha! Don't make a fuss here, Maxell," the speaker turned, and the voice of the representative of the United States, Hahn Blair, sounded, "and it is not too much to do things according to the charter and the relevant rules; In short, you in the EC are at your disposal in your own home. But if you really get away with it one day, don't blame us for not warning us in advance! (To be continued......)
