"Mr. Ambassador is very welcome." Kusai said in the office.

The US aircraft carrier has been sailing north of Libya's coastline, putting greater pressure on Libya, but it has not entered Libyan airspace. Even the death line stipulated by Libya is rarely broken. In this case, Kusai did not withdraw the personnel secretly arranged in Libya, making them wary of the US's actions. If there is another conflict, it will probably not be so easy to deal with.

Just a week after this incident, a familiar guest, Brightman, the US Ambassador to Iraq, came to visit in Kusai's office.

When he heard that he was coming, Kusai already knew what he was here to do. This would be a good idea to end the crisis decently and at the same time, he could squeeze some benefits from Americans.

"President Kusai, this time I came mainly for peace in the Arab world." Brightman said.

Peace? Do you bomb others under the banner of peace? Kusai thought to himself and said, "We are all peace-loving in the Arab world, unless we encounter foreign invasion."

Kusai said this, which surprised Brightman: "President Kusai, you are a very important friend of our United States in the Middle East. I am here to meet you, not to talk about the right and wrong of this incident, but to discuss how to end the dispute."

The American bombing of Libya was originally decided by the Americans themselves and did not receive any authorization from the United Nations. Therefore, the Americans did not have a very advantage in diplomacy and military affairs in this incident.

Originally, even if the United States made a unilateral decision in other operations, after military success, even if outsiders want to say it, they can't say anything, and it's already done. For example, if this operation is successful, it will blow up Gaddafi. What others like to say, Gaddafi is dead, and the United States can be more at ease and boldly intervene in the situation in Libya and support its own agents.

But now... thinking of the disputes experienced in China and the president's final choice, Brightman knew that the Americans did not achieve any purpose in this incident.

The American bombing operation made the Arab world very angry. The Arab world expressed unanimous condemnation of the US's action this time, but it did not take any action to restrict oil exports, because this time it was only the actions of the US side. The Western world did not participate in the US's actions, and even the UK issued a statement expressing regret for this incident. Since the proportion of oil imported from the Middle East has decreased, they did not take out the weapons of the oil embargo, which is a weapon against the entire Western world.

Now, the United States finally wants to resolve the dispute peacefully.

"So, what does your side mean?" Kusai asked.

"Libyan side, release our last pilot. At the same time, apologize to us for this incident. Our aircraft carrier battle group ends this exercise in the Mediterranean and returns to the station." Brightman said.

When Kusai heard their statement, he smiled curiously: "Then, your side might as well just go directly to Libya and forget it, why are you here to come to me? I completely agree with these statements."

This statement made Bleman feel a little embarrassed: "Because we are in the Arab world, Libya and Iraq have a very good relationship. You know, our embassy in Libya was closed decades ago, so we cannot directly talk to Libya."

Gaddafi, that is a mad dog, cannot be used to speculate with common sense, so they want to find Iraq and let Gaddafi release the American pilot through Iraqi relations.

In the last operation, the United States lost more than 20 pilots, eleven of which were captured by Libya. For this group of pilots, they really wanted to plan an operation to rescue the pilots, but several plans were all denied. The failure of the last Iran hostage incident had already allowed them to fully evaluate the dangers of such actions and not do anything they could do.

That's it now. It's very rare to rescue his pilot from Gaddafi's base camp. Moreover, there are more than a thousand American citizens there!

However, if the United States talks directly with Gaddafi, who knows what the result will be with Gaddafi's personality? So, find a middleman. Although the relationship between the United States and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait is the closest, there is no doubt that Iraq is a more suitable choice.

The relationship between Libya and Iraq is getting closer and closer, especially since they have purchased a certain number of fighter jets from Iraq. The United States is disdainful of that kind of fighter jet. What other excellent performance can the fighter jets developed by Iraq and China have? Although the Pakistan Air Force is also equipped, that is because the Pakistan Air Force is a traditional user of Chinese fighter jets, and they do not have enough funds to buy more modern fighter jets.

The United States is also observing that during this air strike, Libya's fighter jets did not take off, including two Super Seven fighter jets that had been imported from Iraq.

The domestic call for opposition to the conflict is getting higher and higher, believing that the United States is engaged in a war without any meaning. Therefore, after repeated research, they finally decided that it was time to end the operation with a decent amount.

If Gaddafi admits his mistake and returns the pilot, then this matter can be over. But is Gaddafi willing?

It depends on whether Kusai is willing to do so.

"We have a good relationship with Iraq and Libya, but it is not as good as that can control Gaddafi's decision." Kusai said: "We cannot convince Gaddafi to apologize to the United States. It's like persuading President Reagan to apologize to the innocent bombed people in Libya."

Because of the strong opposition from the French, President Reagan publicly apologized to the French diplomat who was killed this time, which ended the civil conflict between the two countries. However, the Libyans who were killed, even ordinary citizens, are definitely not President Reagan's turn to apologize.

After hearing Kusai's words, Brightman knew that these ideas from the senior American leaders might not be realized. It is very difficult to get Iraq to help the United States convince Gaddafi. He was mentally prepared before coming.

I really don’t know what President Reagan thought and let himself complete such a task! Brightman thought.

"Your side did not stand in the right position in resolving this dispute. You should know that this tragedy should not happen. Our entire Arab world is condemning this attack. This is a completely terrorist attack." Kusai said it without hesitation. Anyway, when he summoned the ambassador urgently, he had already said those words: "If you want me to convince Gaddafi, then you must show enough sincerity."

Kusai was simply a representative of Gaddafi to make a request. Brightman felt that this time this time was a complete mistake. He then heard Kusai say: "Those pilots are the executioners who massacred the Libyan people. Libya will publicly trial them in court. According to Libyan law, they may be sentenced to at least twenty years in prison."

Twenty years in prison! In this case, the families of those pilots will probably cause even more storms in the United States under the agitation of the opposition party. Brightman frowned and said, "We cancel the apology and let Libya let our pilots go, and then our aircraft carrier battle group withdraws from the northern waters of Libya. Is this OK?"

Brightman made his own decision, but this proposal could be approved by President Reagan.

It's fair to both sides now? Unexpectedly, Kusai continued: "You must first let your aircraft carrier battle group exit the northern waters of Libya, and then I will be confident to convince Colonel Gaddafi."

This is related to a question of dignity.

"No, no, if this is the case, our military will never agree." Brightman said.

"Then, I can't do anything about it," said Kusai.

As long as the Americans do not launch an attack, they will stay there. The consumption of two aircraft carrier battle groups in one day is astronomical. Anyway, the domestic economy in the United States is very recession, because of the huge military expenditure of the United States. Although ordinary people are still kept in the dark, the top American officials know that they can't hold on for long. If they want to fight, they will finish the fight and leave. If they don't fight, they might as well stop fighting. Now, they are burning money and they can't afford it.

The military really wanted to fight, but they had no confidence in winning, and they could not ignore the life and death of the captured people, and did not have a moral advantage. They were hesitating.

"You also know that for Gaddafi, he has always had a deep hostility towards the United States. If he lets people go first and the United States starts to act again after they let them go, then I'm afraid Gaddafi thinks I'm doing something behind the scenes." Kusai said: "So, the United States must leave the Libyan waters first, so that's enough."

Kusai said it very clearly. Now the United States dares to check in with Dafi because he has more than a dozen prisoners in his hands. Although it was actually nothing, now there have been people making trouble with those people, and Gaddafi knows this.

If the prisoners are released and the United States bombs again, there will be no way for Kusai. Afterwards, Kusai will have big trouble.

Brightman already has a sense of sensibility in his heart. To put it this way, it seems that Gaddafi is still afraid of the US strike.

"Anyway, if Gaddafi does not let go, you can drive the formation over again. However, if Gaddafi releases people, you do not leave and is still threatening Libya's security. Gaddafi has no countermeasures, so he will definitely not agree to the proposal to release people first." Kusai said: "We Iraq is willing to do our best to resolve this conflict peacefully, but the terms cannot make Libya feel at a disadvantage, so there is a possibility of reaching an agreement."!!!
