Chapter 217: The gang takes action
After Shewaldnaze arrived at Moscow Airport, Lawton, who ignored the journey, came directly to the Kremlin to attend the emergency meeting of the Politburo. It was not that Shewaldnaze didn't want to go back to rest, but Georgia had a great relationship with him. He had already had a foreshadowing that he had no choice but to do this matter, and the central government should let him go to Abkhazia to deal with the crisis.
As he had premonition, the situation was no longer the mutual attacks of the past at this meeting, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Even Ligachev sat there frownly and seriously thought about the solution. This incident had a great impact. According to the report sent back by the diplomatic and intelligence systems, Western media had reported the matter. This made the Soviet government even more troublesome. If force was used, it would inevitably be irresponsible by the Western media. They knew nothing about the Georgian problem, and the Abkhazi people were oppressed. The central government of the Soviet Union wanted to intervene in order to resolve the persecution of the Abkhazi people by the Georgians, but it was regarded by the Georgian extremist nationalists as a separatist activity against Georgia. Such a complex relationship here is not to pay attention to it. They will only focus on the more than 100 Georgian extremist nationalists who went on hunger strike.
Ligachev actually felt even more dissatisfied with Yakovlev. If it weren't for some bullshit and open policy, how could Gamsakhultiah still in the mental hospital in Tbilisi? But it was meaningless to say such words at this time. Ligachev saw that everyone present didn't say anything, and felt that he should do something for this country, even if he was carrying the title of butcher executioner who suppressed the people, he didn't care.
"I suggest that we immediately send troops to Abkhazia to maintain normal order there, and we can no longer let these clowns continue to make trouble!" As soon as Ligachev finished speaking, everyone present looked at him, and then looked at Gorbachev, as if he was looking at the General Secretary's intentions.
"I object that if we do this, then our political reform will be seriously reversed, and our efforts over the past few years will be wasted!" Yakovlev was the first to jump out and object.
Ligachev thought about it but still did not refute it. He was waiting for the support of other comrades from the Politburo. But no one supported him, because everyone here knew that Ligachev would be retired in a short time.
"Why don't I go to Husumi! Georgia is my hometown. I think we should try to talk to them at least. If we can solve the Abkhazia problem in a conversation, that's of course good. If it doesn't work, we are thinking of other solutions..." Shewaldnaze said.
The Politburo's emergency meeting was held until the second half of the night, and Shevardnaze's proposal was finally passed. Yakovlev and Gorbachev were still fantasizing about reasoning with the Georgian opposition. But Shevardnaze knew that these oppositions had no reason to say at all, and they didn't want the Abkhaz issue to be resolved smoothly. If the Abkhaz issue was settled by the Soviet government, how could they benefit from this political storm?
Those who attended the economic conference were having a headache about Georgia's problems. Seriosha, who did not attend the conference, was also having a headache, because if the Georgia issue really got bigger, the plan of the Leningrad Special Economic Zone would definitely be greatly affected. This night, Seriosha made countless calls, and he consulted Georgia's friends in the KGB system, the newspaper of the Communist Youth League, and Lebed, who worked in the Ministry of Defense, about Georgia's problems. The KGB and the Ministry of Defense did not receive an order from their superiors to send troops to Georgia. This disappointed Seriosha very much. He would rather Gorbachev use a quick knife to cut the mess than drag. What kind of virtues are these opposition parties? Seriosha had already known through the front reporters of the Communist Youth League's frontline reporters, and they were even worse than gangsters.
After thinking for a while, Seriosha understood that the government was inconvenient to take violent means in this storm, but what if the violence came from the people? Thinking of this, Seriosha picked up the phone and called Hassan. In less than half an hour, Hassan came to Seriosha's home, and even Petrov's father was called by Seriosha.
"Hasan, I have something that the Bank of China wants to hand over to you. I want you to go to Georgia, integrate the local Russians and Abkhazi gangs, and teach the Georgians a good lesson!" Selyosha explained in a low voice.
"Boss, Georgia, I've never been there before!" Hassan said in surprise.
"It's better not to have been to you. You are a new face. It's easier to act in Abkhazia. Do you know what happened in Georgia recently? Originally, these people had nothing to do with us, but they have done too much now. If this continues, the Leningrad Special Economic Zone I in charge may go bankrupt due to the loss of confidence of foreign investors. So we must interfere in the matter of Abkhazia. It's best to beat the national elements in Georgia so that they can no longer speak!" Selyosha said viciously.
"Then boss, what should I do when I arrive in Abkhazia?" Hassan asked seriously.
"I'll give you enough money. The local non-Georgian gangs in Abkhazia are integrated. Aren't those Georgians arrogant? You have to be more arrogant than them. It's better to beat Gamsahurdia and his scum out of Abkhazia so that they will never dare to make trouble again!" Selyosha said.
That night, Seriosha, Hassan and Petrov discussed for one night. Seriosha asked Hassan to make the name of the Gorky Brotherhood because it had some influence in various regions of the Soviet Union and was easier to integrate resources in Abkhaziz. Seriosha had no choice. If the army was dispatched, the reputation would be too bad, but if it was a civilian armed force, there would be no problem. In the years before Seriosha traveled, safeguarding national interests in the name of civilian armed forces was already a common trick for the government to protect national interests. The most famous ones included the famous American Blackwater Company, as well as Russia's pro-Russian armed forces in the Crimean dispute and the Ukrainian war. Now Seriosha asked Hassan to control the situation in Abkhaziz in the name of gangs, which is actually the same idea. After all, civil disputes are not as eye-catching as the government suppression.
