Chapter 1852 - 1852: 1852
Upon hearing the name of the country Evil Luo Shi and the name Puerjing, Liu Zhizhong instantly felt nauseated.
How to put it?
There's a lot that can be said.
And there's quite a lot that can't be said as well.
Simply put, Evil Luo Shi is inherently aggressive, occupies land without keeping people, and leverages its vast land resources to wage wars everywhere.
Historically, Evil Luo Shi is the one who seized the most land from Eastern Pot, causing enormous tragedies with blood and tears.
Of course, the establishment of Eastern Pot's New Era was greatly related to Evil Luo Shi as well. It's just that, at that time, it was the Evil Luo Federation Republic, composed of many member countries.
Evil Luo Shi offered money and resources, gave guns and cannons, allowing Eastern Pot's New Era to begin. Naturally, it became like a father figure because they gave you stuff not for free, and you have to pay it back, indefinitely without any certainty.
As for Puerjing, no need to say more—just a dictator. Dictatorship is the public enemy of human civilization.
And Liu Zhizhong?
He created a New Era for the Wale Republic, pursuing freedom, equality, democracy, and aligning with the world's advanced civilizations. Leading all citizens to a vigorous march in the new society and new era.
So how could it be possible to have intersections and exchanges with such a country as Evil Luo Shi?
Now, the Wale Republic and Eastern Pot have established diplomatic relations, no problem. But with Evil Luo Shi, there genuinely is no diplomatic relationship.
But Puerjing took the initiative to call and requested a video conference. Liu Zhizhong wanted to say: Get lost, I won't talk to you!
Honestly, the Wale Republic is currently quite resource-rich, not only in natural resources but also in international connections and such!
Moreover, without Evil Luo Shi, the Wale Republic is still developing healthily, having stepped into the ranks of developed countries. Why the hell would you even connect with Evil Luo Shi? I don't rely on you for anything! You think I'm Eastern Pot?
Indeed, Eastern Pot still relies on Evil Luo Shi for military and energy needs!
In the past, before coming out, Liu Zhizhong watched the news and saw the various strategic cooperations between Eastern Pot and Evil Luo Shi, "limitless cooperation" and the like, it genuinely made him want to vomit and curse!
Now it's better. Liu Zhizhong has his own republic, his own domain, and there are actually many things he can decide.
Including this request from Evil Luo Shi—if I say no, then it's a no. What can you do to me? If you have the ability, throw a gas cylinder at me?
However, out of consideration for demeanor, Liu Zhizhong still agreed. But he said, "Tonight is definitely not possible. I returned from a long flight and have more important issues to handle. Please inform the other party, I can do it at eight o'clock in the evening three days later. If the other party says there's no time or has other arrangements, then I won't serve them."
"Alright, Mr. President, I understand."
"Oh, by the way, Mr. Minister, I have something to discuss with you."
"Please go ahead, sir?"
Liu Zhizhong thought for a moment and said, "Sir, you are from Wulank, right? I seem to remember?"
"Yes, I am from Kiel City in Wulank. However, my hometown is in Kromia. But now, hehe... I can't go back."
Liu Zhizhong said, "Hmm, I know, more than ten years ago, Evil Luo Shi occupied Kromia! But your resistance has never stopped. In recent years, apart from occupying Kromia Island, it seems Evil Luo Shi built many military installations and brought the navy over, meanwhile continuously causing trouble at the eastern border of Wulank?"
"Yes! Those damned Evil Luo Shi people want to incite the eastern four states of Wulank to become independent because there are some of their ethnic groups there. In recent years, guerrilla activities there have been rampant, almost indistinguishable from terrorists."
Talking about this, Mr. Trotsky was unusually angry, "I'm really worried that one day, Evil Luo Shi will treat the eastern four states of Wulank like my hometown Kromia and try to forcibly annex them. This is simply invasion, naked invasion! They have eyes on those lands and the resources on them. Nearly a quarter of Wulank's territory will be lost!"
"Hmm…" Liu Zhizhong nodded, "This kind of rogue behavior is totally unbefitting of a Great Country! Recently, have the diplomatic relations between the Wale Republic and your homeland been progressing well?"
"Very well! We've signed a goodwill agreement, and civilian exchanges have started to become more frequent. A new president has taken office, and internal corruption is being rectified. My homeland is still pretty hopeful. However, he is proposing to join the European Union's economic organization and West Ocean's military organization, and I don't know if that'll work."
"This, huh?" Liu Zhizhong was a bit surprised, "Are you certain? Your president wants to join the West Ocean military organization? Wouldn't that… create a conflict with Evil Luo Shi?"
"I'm certain! But I don't know if he'll succeed. This president has been in office for two years and has actually achieved quite a bit. Despite being a former circus clown, he truly possesses great political talent."
"Hmm, his name is Zhidarneski, right?"
"Yes, Zhidarneski."
"Good. Having once been a part of the Evil Luo Federation, Wulank has gone through many detours and dark times since becoming independent and autonomous, but it has finally seen some light. As Eastern Europe's largest agricultural and military industrial powerhouse, I hope it becomes better and better! Thus, you should quickly communicate with Wulank, and we need to implement projects aimed at cooperation in the grain and oil sectors. The Department of Agricultural Development will have quite a bit of funding arranged. Wulank's grain crops are indeed of very high quality. The black soil of the Eastern European Plain produces premium wheat and sunflowers!"
Trotsky was very excited and said, "Thank you, Mr. President. On behalf of my country, I thank you! I will definitely communicate this with the heads of various departments and proactively communicate with my homeland."
"Good, I'm sure everything will go smoothly. Also, my second visit, if there is no major change, should be to your homeland. At that time, I hope you'll come back with me?"
"Oh my God..." Trotsky was moved. Never expected, this great young political genius, after becoming president, would visit his homeland as the second destination.
"Alright, alright, on behalf of my homeland, I warmly welcome your visit! With your visit, I believe Wulank and the Wale Republic will form a long-term cooperation mechanism for mutual benefit!"
Interesting, isn't it?
The Wale Republic's Foreign Ministry is not run by locals, but by hired foreigners! This is political reform, haha...
