In this regard, Iraq also began to lay out its layout seven or eight years ago. With its own shipyard, it began to build small boats and gradually expanded its scale. Up to now, the frigate with a full load displacement of nearly [-] tons is in the final stage. In the outfitting stage of the [-]s, many Soviet subsystems were introduced into it.

For Iraq, the navy is the weakest, and the design and manufacture of naval ships is also a weak link. However, this has been slowly improving. In particular, Iraq has signed an agreement with Ukraine, except for the purchase of that In addition to using the dismantled nuclear-powered aircraft carrier as an amusement park, Iraq will also invest a large amount of money to build all the warships on the berth of the Ukrainian shipyard and join the Iraqi Navy.

Russia expressed strong opposition to this, but they can't spend a penny to invest in subsequent construction, and they will never pay the cost of the entire ship to buy it. Therefore, now that all countries are short of money, how can they It is the most important thing to be able to turn these things left over from the Soviet Union into the necessary foundation for the development of the country's economy.

Iraq is willing to spend a lot of money, and it is too late for Ukraine to welcome it.

Seeing that the Ukrainian business was doing well, Russia was also tempted. Finally, they got another order. China ordered more than one hundred Su-27 fighter jets from Russia!This arms sales project made Ye Litie happy for a few days.

Moreover, Iraq also proposed to buy the equipment on the No. [-] berth that Iraq aided in the Black Sea Shipyard at a good price.

At the beginning, those equipments were all invested by Iraq. To put it more clearly, those things should belong to Iraq. It was a necessary measure that Iraq had to take in order to build its own aircraft carrier.

Now, the equipment on that slipway has fallen into a useless state, and the Iraqis want to go back again, and give Ukraine some funds, Ukraine is naturally very willing.

They don't know that Qusay is definitely not the one willing to suffer. Those funds were not used to buy Iraq's own equipment. When Iraq transported these equipment away in batches, the entire No. [-] slipway was almost empty. Even the entire Black Sea Shipyard is missing a lot of equipment.

Iraq bribed officials at all levels of the shipyard and moved many of the shipyard's equipment back to the Iraqi shipyard.

The upright Makarov is actually not very clear about these things. When he became the honorary director of the Iraqi shipyard, he suddenly discovered that the equipment on the newly built berths seemed to be very familiar.

The above faces are also very familiar, because, with the arrival of the equipment, there are still many technical personnel from the Black Sea Shipyard.

For them, it is still the original equipment, the same job, but the service object has changed. This change is huge, because their salaries have been doubled several times, and they will never be in arrears.

In this way, Iraq moved almost half of the Black Sea shipyards back to Iraq. Iraq's shipbuilding industry has achieved a take-off. Even if they are allowed to start building their own aircraft carriers, I am afraid there will be no problem.

It was several years later when Ukraine found out that something was wrong. At that time, Iraq only admitted that because of the chaotic situation at the time, it seemed that when Iraq moved a few things, it seemed that it had moved a few things by mistake. Iraq sincerely moved those things The piece of equipment was sent back. In fact, it was replaced by Iraqi equipment that had been updated.

Just the shipyard is obviously not enough. There are also supporting factories, especially the steel used in the construction of large warships such as aircraft carriers, which are also indispensable.

In this regard, Iraq has taken a formal approach and purchased supporting steelmaking plant equipment from Ukraine. For Ukraine, it may be a long time since they will no longer build tens of thousands of tons of military ships such as aircraft carriers. Therefore, Exporting a set of such equipment can be exchanged for more dollars, and Ukraine still agreed.

All the republics of the Soviet Union, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, experienced a huge decline in the economy, the domestic currency continued to depreciate, and the standard of living of the people was much lower than that of the Soviet Union. Of course, there are also some vested interests. In the process of establishment and demise, great wealth will be accompanied.

Among these countries, Ukraine is doing relatively well. Because of its geographical advantages, many of the deformed defense industries of the Soviet Union were placed in Ukraine. Even selling the rags from the Soviet era was enough for Ukraine to survive the first few days. Difficult times of the year.

During this process, Iraq invested a large amount of money, so that scholars of later generations are unable to count how much Iraq has plundered from Ukraine.Of course, the word looting is inappropriate because Iraq paid for everything.

When entering the 80th century, after the new generation of Iraqi self-produced air defense destroyers was launched, there were many shadows of Ukraine on it. For example, the most important gas turbine on board was almost a replica of the DA[-] gas turbine, and the former Soviet Union was the world's largest gas turbine. The country that installs and uses the most, but the only marine gas turbine design unit: the "Machine Design" research and production complex is located in Nikolayev, Ukraine. Even Russia is facing many embarrassing situations.

Qusay is not busy with other things, and has been paying attention to the action of digging some advanced things from the republics of the Soviet Union. This is a major event related to the future development of Iraq. Take things for their own use. At this time, Iraq will naturally help them move.

Among them, Ukraine really has the most good things!In addition to various supporting equipment for warships, Qusai also took a fancy to the missiles from the Southern Machinery Manufacturing Plant and the large aircraft from the Antonov Design Bureau.

While Qusay was busy with these projects, another major historical event affecting the Middle East appeared in the history of the entire world.

In April 1993, President Clinton, whose main task was to focus on the American economy, made a very meaningful visit abroad. The first stop of his trip to the Middle East was Iraq!

Regardless of how it is done behind the scenes, on the surface, the relationship between the United States and Iraq is still good. The two sides are still at the ambassadorial level, and the non-governmental trade between the United States and Iraq is gradually strengthening.In the last Palestine war, the Iraqi army did not directly conflict with the US army. On the surface, the two sides were still very peaceful, although at this time, the US garrison in Israel had reached two armored divisions plus one mechanized The size of an infantry division.

If Clinton wants to stabilize the US regime, it is also necessary to moderately appease the Jewish people. Although in the election, he took advantage of the loophole that Bush does not understand the economy and only wants to fight wars, he made a serious attack. However, after taking office as president, He did not reduce the garrison in Israel, but continued to increase it, reaching the current size of three divisions.

No matter what action is taken, there are only four words, which is the interests of the United States!

Including now, Clinton's visit will have a great effect in defusing the ice between the United States and countries in the Middle East, thereby continuing to stimulate the growth of the American economy.

Clinton needs to fulfill his presidential campaign vow to restore the American economy!For the strength of the US dollar, he must make this visit. After all, the US economy is still based on petrodollars.Damn Bush, he has completely froze the relationship with these oil-producing countries. I really don't know what he thinks!

The first thousand and 120 eight chapters of political fraud

Compared with Bush with a serious face, the tall and handsome William Jefferson Clinton is full of smiles everywhere. Beside him, the first lady Hillary Clinton also has a friendly expression.

However, Qusay doesn't think so. This couple has led the United States on the right track and brought the American economy back into a golden age. It is not good for the United States to become stronger.

Although Clinton focused on the economy, he still did not let go of the military. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he did not give Russia any chance. The idea of ​​being close to the West and realizing the great revival of Russia has been shattered.

Hillary next to Clinton is also a very capable person. She is the most educated of all the first ladies in the White House. At the same time, she is also the one with the longest political career among them. In later generations, she became President Obama's Secretary of State.

Such a couple is much more difficult to deal with than Bush, including their current initiative to visit Iraq. If it were placed on Bush, they would never do it.

And let Qusay go to visit the United States?Qusay doesn't have time, so it's better to stay on his own one-acre three-point land.

Beside Qusay, Sarah also waited quietly. Since becoming the wife of the Iraqi president, Sarah has gradually appeared in public places, such as visiting some enterprises. Iraq has become more and more popular in this regard. Move closer to the west.

We must not wrap women's heads in cloth at home. We must liberate their productivity and let them contribute to the construction of the country.

Originally, Iraq was not as traditional as Saudi Arabia in this regard. Under Sarah's personal demonstration, more women chose to go out to work, which can make their lives more prosperous.

In the Palace of the Republic, the Qusay couple cordially met with the visiting US President Clinton. The two sides shook hands cordially and exchanged views on topics of mutual concern.These are the original words of foreign reports, especially the photos after the handshake, which made the headlines of major newspapers.

Clinton's tall figure can't hide Qusay's majestic appearance. Is the handshake between the two sides to eliminate the barriers, or are each with their own ghosts?

"President Qusay, the great changes in the Arab world are inseparable from the efforts of Iraq. I am very happy to see that the lives of the people in the Arab world are stable and the country is prosperous and strong," Clinton said.

If you are happy, you will be surprised. The Arab world is poor and backward. I am afraid that is what you like to see, Qusay thought in his heart, but said in his mouth: "All this is the result of the joint efforts of the Arab people. We have been living since ancient times. On this land, our people are all industrious, courageous, and peace-loving."

"The United States and Iraq are countries with profound friendship. After entering Iraq's airspace, the fighter jets that escorted us were originally exported to your country by the United States?" Clinton said.

After Clinton's Air Force One entered Iraqi airspace, it was escorted by four F-20 fighter jets of the Iraqi Air Force.Therefore, Clinton mentioned this point, which seemed to add a bit of harmony to the two sides.

"Yes, we maintained a good relationship with your country ten years ago. Many of our domestic projects were related to your country's help." Qusay said, "However, that is in the past. Now, The original aircraft will gradually withdraw from our active service."

Those are all in the past, it depends on what the United States says now, since the relationship between the two sides is good, how many f-22s will you give me?How does Clinton respond?

"We in the United States believe that the stability of the Middle East is related to the entire world, including the stable growth of our American economy. Therefore, we need to continue to maintain good trade relations with your country." Clinton said: "Now, Iraq The manufacturing industry in China has developed greatly. Some products are very popular in the United States. Before I came here, I went to a supermarket in Washington DC and found that many of the products on our shelves are imported from the Middle East and China. of."

Iraq does export a lot of commodities, most of which are agricultural products. The real high technology is only limited to electronic products. This is all thanks to Ousheng Electronics. However, the trade between the two parties is indeed gradually increasing big.

"Moreover, your country is a traditional oil exporter. Last year, your country announced that it will use the Argentine dollar to settle oil payments. This makes us very worried. If this happens, it will seriously damage the existing international financial order and is not conducive to The stable development of the economy of the whole world." Clinton finally talked about this most important topic.

"I believe you are very clear about last year's situation. During that special period, there were very unpleasant things between us." Qu Sai said: "Therefore, we had to throw out this method, but you also You know, it was never implemented!"

It is true that it has not been implemented. If it had been implemented, the two of them would not be sitting here now.However, even if they just announced it, it caused serious turbulence in the US dollar in the international market. If it is really implemented, the United States will definitely use force.

"Now, that past has passed, and we have to look forward to everything, and the relationship between us will be closer. Therefore, we hope that we can get an answer from your country and the entire Arab world that the US dollar is the settlement oil the only currency in the world," Clinton said.

"Using oil to settle U.S. dollars has been carried out for many years, and countries have also stored a large amount of U.S. dollars as foreign exchange. As a common currency in the world, we fully agree to use U.S. dollars to settle oil. This cannot be changed, unless there is an irresistible situation. factors,” Qusay said.

Clinton was very happy to hear Qusay's affirmative answer. This is the main purpose of his visit this time, to develop friendly relations with Arab countries, and asked about the role of the US dollar in these countries to maintain the normal and stable operation of the US economy.

The relationship between the oil-producing countries in the Middle East and the United States must not become stalemate.

After listening to Qusay's next words, Clinton was even more satisfied.

"We recognize the huge role played by the US dollar in the international economy. In order to maintain the development of our economy, we will continue to increase our holdings of US treasury bonds." Qusay continued.
