Chapter 1014: The Djibouti Coup 6
The UN Secretary-General said through a spokesperson, "Called to both Djibouti to remain calm and restrained, avoid conflicts by force, avoid civilian casualties and avoid causing larger-scale bloodshed."
The African Union said, "We are very concerned about this coup in Djibouti. Djibouti is our brother country and we do not want to see him civil strife. Now we do not know the real cause of civil strife and the current situation. However, as a member of the AU, the AU has the right and obligation to prevent him from rioting. The AU may, in the end, intervene in Djibouti affairs and even send troops."
Countries and organizations have expressed their views and opinions on the Djibouti coup.
However, what is even more surprising is that this time, China made a clear statement.
In fact, China has received Mu Yang's report on this coup, so it was prepared in advance.
During this period, Chief No. 1 also had a secret call with Odova, tactfully saying that China could provide assistance within its ability.
Odova naturally expressed his gratitude and said that the matter was basically in control. Of course, he would not refuse the kind help from China, especially Mu Yang's help.
Despite this, in order to ensure that its interests in Djibouti are not damaged, China has made a lot of preparations, such as adding intelligence personnel, ordering the Djibouti Embassy to secretly strengthen information collection and feedback, and sending warships to the Djibouti port for supplies, and can respond to Odova's request for help at any time.
Of course, blatantly participating in the civil unrest coup in Djibouti is not in line with China's consistent policies, but it is still necessary to help in private and make some necessary preparations.
Therefore, after the coup in Djibouti and countries expressed their opinions on the matter one after another, China also expressed its own views.
A spokesperson for the National Academy of Fisheries said: "China is highly concerned about this military coup that took place in Djibouti and has urged the Chinese Embassy in Djibouti that its primary task is to protect the safety of Chinese personnel in Djibouti. China has invested heavily in Djibouti, and we demand that China's interests must be guaranteed."
"China condemns all violations of the law. This military coup is obviously an unjust coup launched by a small group of people with ulterior motives to achieve their own goals. We believe that the Djibouti government and President Odova have the ability to handle domestic affairs well and quell civil unrest as soon as possible."
"Here, the Chinese government promises that if Djibouti needs it, China will provide support within its capacity."
In this speech, the originally dead reporters suddenly became energetic. It was really rare for China to make such sharp and targeted remarks.
The reporters seemed to have been injected with chicken blood, and suddenly became excited, and raised their hands to ask questions.
"Is China optimistic about President Odova and believes that Odova will soon calm the civil unrest."
"I would like to ask, what aspects of help you can just say, including force support? These decisions are related to China's investment in Djibouti and the upcoming Djibouti military base."
"Excuse me"
More than four hours have passed since the coup. Muyang and Odova were sitting in a conference room on Djibouti TV. The two were slowly communicating while smoking cigarettes.
On the surface, Odova looked very calm, but judging from his slightly frown and his fingers holding the cigarette butt while smoking, Odova was still nervous.
Mu Yang can understand that this is related to Odova's future and even his future destiny. He is only in his 47 years old this year and has been elected president for less than two years. He has done a very good job in his presidency and has a very high prestige in the country. Re-election is a consensus.
So, Odova can have at least 10 years of presidency.
And this time, I got the news that someone had launched a coup in advance. He could completely solve the whole thing quietly before the enemy launched a coup. That was the safest, safest and most effective way.
However, he followed Mu Yang's advice and chose a solution that might be the most troublesome.
He unconditionally chose to believe in Mu Yang.
But this does not mean that he is not nervous or worried. Although Mu Yang used the "absolute control" skill on Odova, this does not mean that Odova does not have his own thoughts. Worry and nervousness are one of the most normal emotions at this moment.
"How is the AU president's campaign done?" Mu Yang found a topic and tried to get Odova out of his nervousness.
"I have prepared a campaign team and have new campaign words, hoping to serve the development of Africa through hard work. I have contacted the presidents of several countries and some politicians in private, hoping to get their support, but now I have several biggest competitors, the first one is the President of the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Nigeria, Egypt and Ethiopia." Odova said.
“Do you need my support?”
"Perhaps, it's not clear yet. After all, the election is still five months away. Try to do your best. Of course, it would be best if you can get China's support. After all, China's influence in African countries is still very big."
Mu Yang nodded and wrote it down.
"Odova, I have an idea. Of course, I'm not in a hurry to do this." Mu Yang said after taking a puff of cigarettes.
"Sir, you said."
"After this coup, you can carry out a major cleaning and adjustment within the Djibouti government, which will make your position in Djibouti as solid as a rock. From now on, you will be the only voice in Djibouti."
"But you only have 5 years of term, even if you have two terms in the next term, it will only last 10 years. If you have a full plan, you will only have 8 years left."
"You are only 47 years old this year, which is very young for a politician. Moreover, you took the health medicine I gave you, and your body can support you to work until you are 90 years old. I think you won't be willing to retire and go home to retire when you are 55 years old." Mu Yang said.
Odova looked like a pause. He had just been president for a year. He had never considered these issues before. After all, there was still a lot of time in the future. However, now that Mu Yang mentioned it, he had to think about the future.
"Sir, what do you think?" Odova asked staring at Mu Yang.
"It's very simple, amend the constitution."
"Constitutional amendment?"
"Yes, amending the Constitution and amending the election law may make the election re-election, or allowing direct amendment to be made, in some special circumstances, Congress can pass it, and some people can be granted the position of president. Some statements are that those are not a problem, and it depends on whether it can be implemented."
