Chapter 1164: Key Changes
"Oh, Mr. Liang said the same thing?
It's kind of interesting, but what was discussed, you can tell us in detail. ”
On a cold winter day, the car is very warm, and Long Yun, who is sitting next to the eldest lady, feels a little like a spring breeze, of course, not the temperature, but the light fragrance of the girl; While chatting with the boss, he felt that this style was quite like cologne after smelling it a few times, and he thought a little absent-mindedly that this strong woman is like a big lady, the image contrast is really big, and she is dressed like a young girl, but she sprays men's perfume.
While feeling emotional, he explained to the eldest lady the exchange situation of the day, in terms of the "step theory" of scientific and technological development, Long Yun, Professor Liang and Ling almost had the same opinion, but there was no serious discussion; Chatting like this, the topic somehow turned to international current affairs, and Ling Wei, who paid attention to the news, criticized the just-ended Middle East civil war with great interest:
“…… It is ironic that these oil-producing countries in the Middle East, which usually rely on energy exports, have also turned into high-income developed countries!
But what about now, in the early years, they only cared about selling oil to make quick money, and as soon as the new energy wave came, coupled with shale gas, oil fields and other factors, the economy of these countries plummeted, and the reason why civil war broke out was probably the social unrest caused by the economic recession, right? ”
"Uh-huh, that's definitely one of the main factors."
Thinking of the catastrophe he had just experienced, Long Yun's opinion was probably the same, but of course he knew that the Liberal Party was also a big disaster in this, especially the "Harriff" whose whereabouts were unknown, so he nodded in agreement:
"Relying solely on energy exports. It's certainly not a long-term solution. Actually. For a long time, the countries of the Middle East have had two approaches to development. This civil war is almost a contest between different political factions, but fortunately in the end, the Liberal Party side lost, and it is estimated that in the future, Syria, and perhaps Iraq and Libya, will follow a normal path of development, which is also a good thing for the local people. ”
"Perhaps, but I'm not optimistic about it."
"Oh? ――What do you mean by that? ”
Originally, it was just because of his own NATA combat experience、I sighed to the little girl in the car。 Long Yun realized that the majestic Shangguan Ling in front of him was not ordinary, and sure enough, what he said now was quite surprising, so he waited for the analyst to continue.
In the face of the audience's inquiry, the eldest lady was obviously in spirit, and her speed of speech was a little faster:
"How? The situation is not obvious.
Hasn't this always been the case in that part of the Middle East, how many Arab countries can decide their own destiny? Take this civil war as an example, Long Yun, I sometimes watch the news and know some situations, and the war has not been fought for a day or two. The two sides have been in a tug-of-war all along, how did it end so neatly now?
Kindness. I don't have a penchant for judging current affairs, but as you must know, it wasn't a few superpowers that intervened in the name of the United Nations to extinguish the war in an instant.
This kind of thing, hum, although it is a good deed, but it makes people feel no spirit when they see it; Now I would like to know what the United Nations and the Security Council were doing when these countries were in turmoil and the people were struggling to make a living, and if it were not for the great interests of the people, no one would be so full of internationalism and send their own taxpayer-supported troops to intervene in such a matter. ”
"Yes, yes! Makes sense, I think ......"
Seeing that the eldest lady beside him was talking in a straightforward manner, quite a bit heroic and pointing, Long Yun nodded frequently after listening to it, but he was also inspired, he thought about it according to Ling's thoughts, and felt that the end of the civil war in the Middle East was a little abnormal.
Isn't it true that, according to this line of thinking, ordinary people can more or less imagine that the United Nations, which had been watching the civil war in the Middle East and even turned a blind eye, actually launched a thunderous air offensive around the New Year, which not only quickly ended the Iraqi civil war, but also directly helped the Damascus regime to wipe out the Liberal regime in its territory.
In the face of the civil war in the Middle East, the international community, including the United Nations, has always held a negative attitude, and ordinary countries are naturally powerless to think about anything, while several major countries have never taken decisive action.
In a word, the Middle East, once the world's energy center, if it really realizes the great alliance of Arab countries and becomes a monolith, it is by no means a good thing for other countries, and Western countries have long made arrangements for this, from the establishment of Israel after the end of World War II, to the later United States and the Soviet Union each supported one side, Britain and France also came in from time to time to make peace, and then to the Gulf War and Iraq War at the end of the Cold War, until today's Middle East civil war. But it is also an inescapable reality.
But now, after a long policy of checks and balances, it is rare for several major powers to intervene in unison to extinguish the raging war in the Middle East.
Reminded by Shangguan Ling's comment, he thought in his seat for a while, the situation of the Middle East civil war that Long Yun mastered was naturally not comparable to the eldest lady next to him, and he quickly noticed many facts that he had ignored before, and on this basis, he had a relatively clear guess.
That is to say, as far as the Middle East civil war is concerned, since the Security Council took decisive action only in the recent past, and did not nip the war in the bud as soon as it broke out, this shows the fact that the international community's attitude towards the Middle East civil war is completely "indifferent". But then, from inaction to rapid attack, the transformation is so thorough, then there can only be one explanation, that is, the situation in the Middle East has undergone an extremely serious change, and this change is not a blessing or a curse for the Arab countries in the quagmire of war, but it certainly involves the core interests of several major countries.
A civil war can maintain the chaos in the Middle East, and Long Yun, who is quite familiar with international affairs and geopolitics, will certainly not fail to understand.
But then, he felt a little confused: Ling's idea was obviously very reasonable, but what could be in that Middle East land, except for the oil that was no longer precious, that would make all countries unanimously feel threatened and must unite to clear the land by force?
As the train of thought progressed, the young man was still sitting in the back seat of the car and meditating, and Shangguan Ling next to him saw that he was silent in thought, but he didn't lose his temper all of a sudden, but grabbed the book and continued to browse.
There is no interference from external conditions for the time being, Long Yun, who has fallen into silence, has been thinking nervously, he only now realizes that he is a little "in it" illusion, he has personally experienced the Middle East civil war, and he should know this very well, but because of this, in addition to fighting in NATA and tracking the "mysterious flying machine", he really hasn't thought about the overall situation of this war very comprehensively.
But now, having looked for factors that threatened the great powers, and had sorted out the various circumstances of the civil war in the Middle East, he soon came to a conclusion that surprised him.
Iraq, Syria, not to mention these two countries that have suffered from civil wars, even the entire Arab world, do not have much say in the international order in the new century, and in addition to the moderate position of the League of Arab States as a coordinating object, what threat will these countries have to the superpowers?
So the situation is very clear, none of the Arab countries is a threat, a civil war is not a big deal, and there must be other key factors for the intervention of several major powers in the civil war.
Is it because of "Haraf"?
Suddenly thinking of this, Long Yun was startled at first, he intuitively felt that something was wrong, but he didn't know what he was afraid of, and then he realized what this assumption meant.
If the Security Council's intervention in the Middle East civil war was actually due to the discovery of "Khalif" and the unusual things about this person, does that mean that some people in this world have noticed the "superpowers" and the series of strange events that have taken place in it?
Thinking along this line, Long Yun, who had already concluded that "Harriff" was a superpower, quickly determined a lot of anomalies that could be observed by the outside world, but these are not shocking, and what will really arouse great concern and even feel threatened by various countries is probably the YF-23 "ghost" scandal that was boiling a while ago, but now it seems to be under press control.
In any case, since the attitudes of several major powers towards the civil war had changed so completely all of a sudden, sitting in the warm and comfortable Yanhuang car, Long Yun felt a little vigilant, and he finally realized that one of his long-standing inferences was actually not reliable.
"Superpowers", "superpowers", such a mysterious existence that has existed in ancient times, is it true that today's countries are unaware of it?
He can't answer this question now, but compared with the reason that he didn't want to deny it on the basis of "the number of superpowers is scarce and must be very low-key", the current Long Yun finally found that his thoughts and lovers could not cover all the situations, just like "Harrif", no matter what the origin of this person is, he doesn't seem to plan to be a low-key person at all, but to use superpowers to turn the Middle East upside down, such a high-profile wanton behavior, Wouldn't it attract the attention of several major powers and then discover the hidden secrets?
Damn, if you think about it like this, maybe it will really ...... (To be continued......)
