Chapter 65 Post-War
The Battle of Guantanamo ended in the failure of the U.S. military. In order to protect the lives of the U.S. troops and nationals in Guantanamo, and unable to provide effective rescue, President Reagan chose to compromise with the Cuban government. And Secretary of Defense Weinberg did his part to become the scapegoat for this matter.
Under the watchful eyes of the Cuban and Colombian armed forces, all the Americans in Guantanamo boarded an American guided missile destroyer through a simple pier, and bid farewell to this country and this land. The Cuban flag is flying again over the Guantanamo base. Castro praised that Cuba has since completed the unification of the country and will enter a new era. And those Colombian reinforcements have been likened to the internationalist fighters of the Spanish Civil War. Castro praised them as the vanguard of the Latin American national liberation movement.
The failure of Guantanamo caused an uproar in the political circles of the United States, and Congress set up a special investigation committee to investigate the matter. Several important officials in Reagan's cabinet were implicated. Although Secretary of Defense Weinberg took the initiative to take the blame and resigned, the Ministry of Defense was not the most responsible for this incident. In the investigation report of the Congress, it was pointed out that the CIA was the direct fuse of the Guantanamo incident. The CIA acted without authorization in Colombia and captured important figures of Colombian armed groups. They did not realize the seriousness of this matter. Subsequently, intelligence circulated from inside Colombia showed that Colombian armed personnel would attack the US military base in Guantanamo. It's a pity that this information was thrown into the wastebasket as a joke by the deputy director of the CIA. It was the dereliction of duty of the deputy director that caused the garrison at Guantanamo base to suffer a devastating blow without preparation.
Among the whole report, the most interesting to the public is the key figure who triggered this armed conflict involving three countries-Ivankov. The investigative report after the meeting did not disclose the true identity of Ivankov. Because the Vatican is also involved here, Ivankov's status as a diplomat makes the CIA's actions disgraceful. Even if Ivankov can now confirm that he is indeed an important member of a mysterious force, the CIA's kidnapping of diplomats is still will be condemned by the international community.
Congress's fierce pursuit of the CIA did not stop the agents of the CIA from stopping their work. After the whole incident, the report that was thrown into the wastebasket regained its attention. A key figure was mentioned many times in the report, the unseen behind-the-scenes manipulator-Nicolas. The CIA and the FBI jointly listed Nicola, who had never shown up, as the most wanted criminal in the US government, and the reward amount surpassed the original number one Pablo Escobar's 50 million US dollars and reached a record-breaking 100 million dollars, but so far the CIA doesn't even have a single picture of Nikolai,
Now the only clue that the CIA knows is that the Taj Mahal casino may be related to Ivankov and the mysterious forces behind it. Unfortunately, shortly after Ivankov's accident, the American casino and hotel tycoon Yuri went to Switzerland to apply for asylum. The Taj Mahal Casino and the American hotel chain Ibis jointly hired a luxurious team of lawyers to prevent the CIA from investigating him. The U.S. Constitution protects the sanctity of private property, and unless there is conclusive evidence, these industries cannot be touched by the CIA.
These Colombian armed personnel who stayed in Cuba faced a real problem after the climax, that is, how to return to their homeland, Colombia. The Cuban side submitted an application to the Soviet government, requesting that a Soviet ship be sent to protect these guerrillas from Cuba and return to Colombia safely. Under the strong suggestion of the Soviet Ministry of Defense, Secretary Gorbachev finally agreed to this matter. So a Soviet fleet headed for the Caribbean in a mighty way. Although the Americans hate these Colombian militants, they have nothing to do with the protection of the Soviets. They can only watch these people return to Colombia happily,
Instead, the Colombian government accused the Soviet Union of supporting terrorists in Colombia and took retaliatory actions against Soviet goods sold to Colombia. It's a pity that the area that the Colombian government can still control now doesn't even have half of Colombia. The Soviet Lada sold no less in Medellin and Cali.
In order to properly deal with the armed forces of the Taj Mahal Casino and the Gorky Brotherhood that have been exposed in the United States, Sergesha moved the mercenaries originally stationed in the Caribbean to areas controlled by Colombian allies. Mikhail, who returned to Japan, was looking for a Japanese buyer for the Taj Mahal Casino. The richest man Yoshiaki Tsutsumi was very interested in this, but he didn't have much cash to collect. He offered to exchange the Prince Hotel in Minato, Tokyo, for the most luxurious casino in Atlantic City. Mikhail accepted the deal on behalf of Colombia, but there is a supplementary clause in this agreement, that is, once the Prince Hotel is re-sold in the future, Seibu Group has the right of first acquisition.
The Guantanamo incident made Yuri's years of hard work in the United States go to waste. Although he felt sorry, he felt very lucky when he saw Ivankov again. Ivankov told Yuri that he was in the United States. The inhuman torture at Guantanamo Bay. He persuaded Yuri not to worry about the temporary failure. Although we failed in the United States, our business in Europe has not been affected. And Seriosha also comforted Yuri, and arranged for him a new job, which was to acquire the British National Power Company in Switzerland through Columbia Bank.
"Xie Liaosha, I originally thought that opening a casino was the most profitable, but I didn't expect to make more money by speculating in foreign exchange. The casino business seems to be prosperous, but in fact, after removing the personnel expenses and operating expenses, it can't make much money! If not I really don't want to do it for money laundering!" Yuri said a little disheartened.
"Yuri, our business is getting bigger and bigger now, and the casino business can no longer accommodate our capital scale! I am more optimistic about these public utilities in the UK. Electricity, natural gas, water supply and communication industries. These industries not only have stable income , and the cash flow is huge. The most important thing is that the British government’s thirst for funds has reached its peak. The City of London can even completely abandon financial supervision, and even the Soviet Union’s state-owned VTB Bank can gain a foothold here. This is our new Opportunity!"
