"Djibouti Palace Kempinski Hotel Djibouti Palace is also the only 5-star hotel in Djibouti and the landmark building here." Xin Weitong said.

"Djibouti local investment and construction?" Mu Yang asked curiously.

"No, Djibouti cannot afford such a luxurious hotel. It was jointly built and operated by Dubai Sailing Hotel and Kempinski Group. Usually, there are mainly foreigners living there. In addition to residents, there are also a large number of foreign officials who come there to relax and entertain. By the way, the Spanish army even rented hotel rooms as office locations and accommodation areas."

At this time, the Economic Counselor Wang Lizhong said with a smile, "When talking about this hotel, I remembered a small story about President Gaile. I wonder if you have heard of it."

"Oh, let's talk." Mu Yang said with interest.

"The security facilities at the Kempinski Hotel in Djibouti Palace are very strict, and there are police checkouts at the door. One reason is that there are many foreigners there, and the other reason is that President Gale had lived in that hotel for a long time."

"Don't President Gaile live in the Presidential Palace? Isn't he afraid of being discussed by the public when he stays in a hotel?" Mu Yang asked.

"Actually, there is a reason. When you arrive at the Presidential Palace later, you will find that the Presidential Palace is very new. It is not because of redecoration, but because of reconstruction. Just last year, when Spanish warships entered the port, they fired live ammunition. By chance, they happened to hit the Presidential Palace in Djibouti. Fortunately, President Gaile was fine."

"But afterwards, President Gaile had to move to the hotel, and then the Spanish government paid for it to rebuild the Presidential Palace in Djibouti."

Mu Yang asked in surprise: "That's over."

You know, bombarding a country's presidential palace can directly cause war, and you can pay for a rebuild.

It can only be said that primary school students are weak.

This is also an unscrupulous diplomatic incident.

The car soon arrived at the Presidential Palace of Djibouti. At a venue in the Presidential Palace, Muyang saw President Gaila, who was dark-skinned, fat and gray-headed.

Behind President Galai are a group of Djibouti officials, with Chinese and Djibouti flags hanging. On both sides, there are a row of guards wearing Djibouti military dresses.

"Mr. President, good afternoon, on behalf of the President of China, I am Mu Yang, the new Chinese Ambassador to the Republic of Djibouti. This is our country's letter of nationality, please accept it." Mu Yang submitted his letter of nationality in a sincere tone.

This is a ritual and a necessary process.

The letter of state is a document carried by the ambassador or minister who serves as the director of the embassy when he goes to the receiving country that has agreed to the candidate. This is a letter from the sending head of state to the receiving head of state. After the envoy arrives at the receiving country, he immediately notifies the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the country of the country of state and submits a copy of the letter of state to the receiving head of state, and then submits the letter of state to the receiving head of state at the presentation ceremony.

The date when the embassy director begins to perform his duties is the date of submitting the national certificate.

President Gailai took over the letter of nationality and invited Mu Yang to enter the living room. The two sides discussed the friendly relations between the two countries. Today is the day to formally submit the letter of nationality, and there are many people present, so he said some official clichés such as enhancing friendship and working together.

However, Mu Yang still said tactfully, hoping to enhance deeper cooperation between the two countries, such as in terms of transportation, people's livelihood, and infrastructure. President Gaile naturally agreed to these words, after all, this is a good thing to strengthen the construction of his own country.

However, when Mu Yang expressed his hope to rent a long-term port, Gailai hesitated for a moment and said that Djibouti would take seriously China's requirements.

In fact, this is equivalent to a tactful rejection.

After the ceremony, Mu Yang and his group walked out of the presidential palace. Executive Counselor Xin Weitong approached Mu Yang. The two of them whispered while walking, "It turns out that Ambassador Yuan has also made many requests to the Djibouti government and President Gailai to lease a long-term port, but they were all rejected."

"In this case, Djibouti is mainly concerned with the United States, France and other countries. They have consolidated their power in Djibouti and have even won over many Djibouti officials. They do not want to see the throat of the Red Sea increase competitors, nor do they want China to gain a foothold on this voyage."

Mu Yang knew that this included political struggles on very complex international issues.

"The Djibouti government army is small, weak, and relies heavily on foreign countries, especially the United States and France, and France, as the former suzerain of Djibouti, still had a deep influence on Djibouti."

Xin Weitong was talking about these situations. Mu Yang and his group had already walked to the gate of the Presidential Palace. Two people walked in front of them, but they stood in front of everyone, blocking the path of Mu Yang and others.

Xin Weitong whispered, "It is David Rodriguez, the commander of the US base in Africa, and Tom Kelly, the US ambassador to Djibouti."

Mu Yang also held on and looked at the two people in front of him, David Rodriguez, about 50 years old, a standard white American, wearing a US military uniform, wearing a military cap, and rank brigadier general. Ambassador Tom Kelly looked over 40s, a little thin, tall, and had gray hair, which made him look older than his actual age.

Tom Kelly looked at Mu Yang and said with a smile: "I think this gentleman is the new Chinese ambassador. It's an honor to meet him here. I am Tom Kelly, the US Ambassador to Djibouti."

"Hello Ambassador Tom Kelly, my name is Mu Yang." Mu Yang also replied with a smile.

Both sides looked very good, but Tom Kelly's next words made Mu Yang's pupils shrink.

"I wonder what Ambassador Mu brought to Djibouti again, are you really looking forward to it. You Chinese are really rich and have aided everywhere, but I don't think the effect is good. Haha, I think you might as well use the money for your own construction." Tom Kelly said with a smile.

David Rodriguez, who stood aside and never spoke, said at this time, "Strength determines everything, and tricks can only make people laugh."

The smile on Tom Kelly's face became even brighter, "I hope Ambassador Mu will gain something during his term."

Mu Yang looked at the two men in front of him and even suspected that it was premeditated that these two guys appeared here now, otherwise why would it be so coincidental?

Mu Yang replied with a calm expression: "My let me go for three years, I am confident that I will achieve great results during my let me go. I never doubt all this, but I am very curious about how long Ambassador Tom Kelly will have to serve."

"A year and a half." Tom Kelly.

"I sincerely hope that you can work smoothly in the remaining one and a half years of term." Mu Yang said with a smile.

One and a half years, I will let you get done in one and a half months.
Chapter completed!
