Chapter 1005 Let the Arab nation stand at the head of the world nation
If Saudi Arabia wants to pluck up the courage to follow Iraq's footsteps, and even in the future, to the opposite side of the United States and give up the way of US dollar and oil, it requires enough confidence. Kusai needs to let King Fahd see that Iraq is fully prepared. In the future, Iraq has enough power to protect the security of the entire Middle East, and Saudi Arabia will also have enough power to protect its own security. Therefore, Kusai must let King Fahd know something.
"Dongfeng-3 missile solves our problems, but this is a liquid missile. Before use, it needs to be refueled. Our launch preparation time is very long. This has great disadvantages during combat. Therefore, solid missiles are the final trend." Kusai said: "After the efforts of our scientific researchers, we have successfully developed a medium-range solid ballistic missile with a range of 5,000 kilometers. We are now preparing for the low-speed production stage. When we start stable production, we can secretly export part of this missile to Saudi Arabia."
When Prince Sultan heard Kusai's words, he felt excited. The range was 5,000 kilometers, medium-range solid ballistic missile, what is this? Such a missile is equivalent to five Dongfeng-3s. When he remembered that he regarded the Dongfeng-3 as a treasure, Iraq was already ahead from afar.
In this case, Israel, Türkiye's US military bases, and even Europe are within their range of attack.
Americans need to think about it if they want to attack them.
"And the miniaturization of our own special warheads has been basically completed. When necessary, we can also export special warheads like Saudi Arabia, but we need to have a key in Iraq at that time." Kusai said.
Although Kusai still didn't say those words directly, both King Fahd and Prince Sultan knew what Kusai was referring to.
After the nuclear explosion was carried out, there were still many steps to reach the practical stage. The most important one was to miniaturize the warhead and then plug it into the ballistic missile head.
Iraq has solved all technical problems.
Moreover, nuclear weapons don’t care much, as long as you have it, Iraq’s nuclear weapons production cannot be too high, but as long as you have one, it can also have a great deterrent effect.
"We have set up a base on Geshm Island and take off fighter jets. We can monitor the Arabian Sea and protect our coastline. In the Mediterranean, we will base Syria and Libya. In this way, our military presence will be in the Mediterranean, Arabian Sea and Indian Ocean. In ten years, the Iraqi Navy will have two aircraft carrier battle groups, arranged in the Mediterranean and Indian Ocean respectively. Although it is not very powerful, we will defend our Middle East and deal with possible hostile forces. We will do our best, but these are the worst cases. We are well prepared for the future, but we will still try our best to resolve the dispute peacefully." Kusai said.
There will definitely be conflicts with the United States in the future. Iraq's various efforts are not just to solve the Israeli issue. In Kusai's eyes, the Israeli issue is not a big problem, and the United States behind Israel is the biggest threat.
After hearing these words from Kusai, King Fahd finally knew that Kusai was actually ready.
"Of course, the United States has strong military strength, but it is very normal for us to jointly use our own currency and use our own currency to settle oil. The United States does not have enough excuses to launch a war against us. Therefore, even if they launch a war, it is illegal. At that time, they face our unified Arab world. In order to safeguard our own oil interests and to make our Middle East and eventually become a respectable and powerful institution in the whole world, the war we are forced to engage in is also necessary. Let every Arab who walks in the world hold his head up and be respected by others, and let us become a paradise for immigrants all over the world without hesitation." Kusai said.
"We have a brilliant civilization, and we will surely usher in a new peak of development. Should we live by exporting oil forever under the protection of the United States, or become the most advanced, developed and beautiful country in the world? This is our chance." Although Kusai's words were not loud, they echoed in everyone's heart: "We are not trying to fight for the world's dominance, we are just trying to make our oil truly benefit our own people. As long as we take the first step firmly, we will step closer to success. Otherwise, we will always have to live under the power of the United States and the oppression and enslavement of the American people."
Kusai's last words were a bit sharp, but King Fahd thought of the Americans' performance just now. In order to help the Americans escape the economic crisis, Saudi Arabia would buy US government bonds. This is a way for the United States to transfer domestic conflicts.
"Of course, the ways of struggle are diverse. We do not necessarily need to use force. Economic wars are more important." Kusai said: "Maybe, the military threats we are worried about will not really happen. What we are more worried about is economic impact. Saudi Arabia is still a complete oil exporting country and does not have much industry. I suggest that His Majesty the King make a large investment in industry and develop Saudi Arabia towards an industrialized country. In this way, when we have no oil in the future, we can still stand at the top of the world's nations."
In later generations, Saudi Arabia was also vigorously developing industry. Everyone knows that oil cannot be eternal, it is a non-renewable resource.
Let the Arab nation stand tall among the nations of the world! This sentence of Kusai completely touched King Fahd. Their current decision will be related to the fate of their entire Arab world.
Although the three countries are now preparing to promote a unified currency, these countries are the most developed countries in the Arab world. The oil reserves of the three countries account for about 50% of the world's total oil reserves. (Of course, Iraq's oil reserves are calculated by counting the province of Khuzestan, offshore oil platforms along the Persian Gulf coast, etc.) Among the top five countries in the world's reserves, they account for four.
When their currency begins to be promoted and gradually achieves results, other countries will definitely gradually join in, forming the currency of the Arab world, and then developing into the global currency.
Compared with the country's own loss of the right to formulate currency, this benefit is even more huge.
"President Kusai, where do you think our Arab central bank is more appropriate?" asked King Fahd.
Kusai has long been confident: "It is more appropriate to set up in Riyadh."
The EU has provided a good template for Kusai by joining forces with countries to use a unified currency. Although the euro is still more than ten years before it is launched, their model is still relatively suitable.
"Our Arab central bank is responsible for formulating monetary policies, and central banks of various countries participate in the printing, minting and issuance of our paper money and silver coins." Kusai continued.
Where this headquarters is located, it actually does not have much significance. Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Kuwait are already the most closely related countries, so setting up in Saudi Arabia can also show that Iraq does not have much ambitions to prevent mutual suspicion between the three countries. Iraq has the most powerful force and has strong force. When something happens to Saudi Arabia, Iraq can also respond in time.
"Okay, then we Saudi Arabia are willing to join this unified currency action," said King Fahd.
He finally made up his mind, and he also knew that with this as a symbol, he would gradually move away from the United States. Saudi Arabia would no longer pay for the huge fiscal deficit of the United States.
"The Americans want us to increase their treasury bonds, and it seems that we should refuse." Prince Sultan said.
With 50 billion US dollars, the Americans are simply robbing, and Prince Sultan scoffed at the US ambassador's proposal.
"I think this is a good opportunity for us," said Kusai.
Good opportunity? King Fahd looked at Kusai and knew that he had a lot of ideas.
"At this time, we send out the signal of our unified currency, so that even if Americans want to oppose us, they need our help to overcome the difficulties." Kusai said.
Americans are not fools. When the Three Kingdoms begin to take the first step, the United States will have a premonition that what will happen next. Therefore, with this first step, Americans will strongly oppose it.
However, under the current situation, Americans cannot object. If they object, then the Three Kingdoms will definitely not give the United States a penny. It is impossible for the United States to overcome this crisis. Americans will definitely have the right choice to weigh the pros and cons.
"Our power is not strong enough now, so we must pay attention to strategy." Kusai said: "However, we don't have to buy US Treasury bonds. In this crisis, the stocks of many American companies are worthless. We invest funds to directly rescue the market and increase our holdings of large companies are also a way to help Americans."
After hearing Kusai's words, King Fahd and Prince Sultan both showed smiles on their faces. Abdullah's suggestion was really good. Saudi Arabia wanted to develop industry and change its economic structure, which was a good start.
Kusai was relieved and Kuwait would definitely agree. Then, this time his plan will finally take a firm step.
