On November 11, in the new week, the vogue topic triggered by the Vimy show is still going on. For groups concerned about global current affairs and politics, in addition to the waves of last week's U.S. election, a big political melon surrounding Ukraine seems to suddenly burst out.
On the morning of that day, several influential newspapers in the United States, including the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Los Angeles Times, reported on the assassination of yef sherban, an entrepreneur in Donetsk state and an important figure of the Ukrainian Liberal Party, on November 9 local time.
Although different newspapers reported the incident from different angles and did not name names, they all criticized the deteriorating business environment and the increasingly sharp partisan struggle in Ukraine.
Then, at the White House press conference that morning, in the face of reporters' questions, the White House spokesman also expressed concern about the incident and expressed concern about Ukraine's promotion of democratization and the openness of the market economy. At the same time, considering that the large investment of international capital in Ukraine in recent years has not only promoted the economic development of the country, but also brought millions of jobs to the country, the White House spokesman called on the Kiev authorities to take measures to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of overseas investors.
It's more than that.
On the same day, Russia's "news", "Pravda", "Russian daily" and other important newspapers also reported on the sherban assassination, as well as the same concerns from the Kremlin.
The two big brothers spoke at the same time about the same incident. It was hoped that the assassination cases limited in Ukraine would be known all over the world immediately. No one is stupid enough to think that the United States and Russia will speak out of a sense of justice or superficial reasons, so they follow up one after another. In addition, the industrially developed and resource rich region of eastern Ukraine is a hot spot that many people pay close attention to, and Donetsk immediately becomes the focus of the media of all countries.
Kiev, Ukraine.
On the second day when things began to ferment, Pavlo razarenko, who had no rest all night last night, rushed to the presidential palace after receiving the notice. As soon as he entered the office, Leon Kuchma smashed a pile of newspaper copies and roared.
"Fool, look what you've done. Now the whole world is watching us! Just now, the representative of the International Monetary Fund also called me and said that he might review the loan funds given to us next year. Do you know what chain reaction will be caused if this matter is not handled properly, you son of a bitch! "
Lazarenko couldn't avoid it. He made a fist subconsciously. Seeing Kuchma staring at him fiercely behind his desk, he had to adjust his mood quickly and said, "Leon, I don't quite understand what you're saying..."
With the end of the word, a coffee cup has come again.
Lazarenko barely dodged this time, but he was splashed with juice. He wiped his skirt in embarrassment and depressed his anger again. Finally, he said, "I mean, someone is aiming at me."
"The blind can see it," Leon Kuchma said sternly. "I'll ask you now, how do you plan to end it?"
"I have Well, no one will find the killers anyway. "
Kuchma picked up another folder and threw it over, scolding: "so you are a fool. You can't find those killers. Are you going to take the blame yourself?"
"I, Leon..."
"I don't want to listen to your nonsense. I'll give you a week to finish this case. Besides, don't reach out to Donetsk any more, including the whore beside you. You all give me some restraint, or I'll let you get out of the prime minister's position. "
“……”
"Fool, did you hear what I said?"
Lazarenko gritted his teeth and finally said, "I see, Leon."
"Call me Mr. President later."
Lazarenko felt a chill in his heart. Kuchma didn't care about him any more. He hesitated for a moment and finally nodded: "yes, Mr. President."
"Go away, remember, you only have one week."
But razarenko didn't go. After all, he couldn't help but ask, "lie Mr. President, I still want to know who is targeting me? "
"Get out of here."
When Lazarenko left, the angry Leon Kuchma leaned back on the leather chair and calmed down for a while.
However, thinking about the continuous communication with the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine and IMF representatives in the morning, I still feel a headache. After two years of hard work, the domestic situation in Ukraine has finally stabilized, and the economic decline has barely stopped. At this time, the country really can't stand the big waves.
I didn't expect that the right arm I once relied on would dig such a big basket for myself.
Leon Kuchma is actually very clear about Lazarenko and the woman around him. But now in Ukraine, frankly speaking, the eldest brother is not laughing at the second brother. Everyone is like this, and he has no position to be too strict about it. However, after experiencing this incident and looking at what razarenko has done in recent years, Kuchma gradually reflects that his former allies, both ambition and strength, are increasing rapidly.If this continues, with reference to this year's Russian general election, Lazarenko and Tymoshenko can be regarded as the perfect combination of politics and business. Who can guarantee that Lazarenko will follow suit in three years? He will be replaced by the prime minister in 1994?
At first, there was some hesitation. Suddenly, Kuchma finally made up his mind to take La zarenko.
However, because Lazarenko's foundation has been established, it is not easy.
To sort out his mind again, Kuchma pressed the call button on his desktop and asked his secretary to call his son-in-law. When Victor pinchuk came in, Kuchma didn't talk too much nonsense and said, "Victor, go to livney immediately and try out what Simon vistrow really wants to do."
When Victor pinchuk heard the words, he was acutely connected with something: "Leon, do you mean that the disturbance caused by the Donetsk incident was promoted by westero?"
Leon Kuchma nodded. When he met with the U.S. ambassador, the other side didn't hide this, but the ambassador didn't know the deeper story. Kuchma knew at first that he could not avoid anger in his heart. He just calmed down and found that he had to deal with it seriously.
After all, the current strength of the westero system is too huge. In the state of Rovno, the Rovno Gang backed by the westero system has become the same force. Recently, with the completion of the Ukrainian Parliamentary Election Bill, the "Ukrainian Progressive Alliance Party" has been registered and established there to promote economic development and improve people's living standards, obviously pointing to next year's Ukraine Parliamentary elections.
Although the Rovno Gang clearly stands on his side and can be called an ally, deep down in his heart, Kuchma is far more afraid of the Rovno Gang than relying on it.
It is an instinctive thought that no one can sleep soundly on the side of the couch, let alone the head of a state. What's more, the strength of the westero system is so strong that Kuchma is not sure whether he can Parry once the other side changes sides.
Just like this time, it was a surprise attack. Even if he knew that it was not aimed at himself, Kuchma was more afraid.
Unfortunately, Leon Kuchma knows that his current position is not as stable as a rock. He is not only surrounded by Lazarenko, who is a potential opponent with a clear mind. Relying on Donetsk Gang, who has a rapid industrial foundation in eastern Ukraine, he is also eyeing the power of Kiev.
At this time, if they fall out with the help of Rovno, their opponents will probably wake up in a dream.
Since it is impossible to turn over, of course, efforts should be made to maintain this relationship.
In Leon Kuchma's view, this is a good opportunity. Westero is obviously dissatisfied with Lazarenko. If he pushes on his side, it will basically cut off the possibility of Lazarenko competing with him in the future. In Donetsk's side, Kuchma thinks that Simon westero's making such a big noise is definitely not just to beat Lazarenko.
Perhaps, the other side is also interested in the industrial assets of Dongwu region.
If we can stir up the conflict between the Rovno gang and the Donetsk Gang through this incident, we can just reap the profits on our own side.
According to his own way of thinking, Kuchma gave his son-in-law some face-to-face advice, and Victor pinchuk left Kiev in a hurry and went to Livni.
On the other hand, after leaving the presidential palace, razarenko returned to the prime minister's residence. As a solid ally, Tymoshenko has been waiting here. Seeing that razarenko's face is almost filled with anger, Tymoshenko has no nonsense and directly talked about his inference. Although they have no direct contact with Kuchma, there are too many signs. In fact, it is easy to judge .
To sum up, some time ago, Lazarenko wanted to take a share of the $200 million resettlement community construction plan of vestrona, and let a shell company controlled by Tymoshenko get the steel order of the resettlement community. As a result, he came back empty handed in a bid held by aldec company. The grudged Lazarenko deliberately delayed after saying hello to Kuchma Approval of Rovno thermal power plant project.
This is just one of them.
Tymoshenko, who had tried to make friends with the Westeros system several times in a row, was also very dissatisfied with the Rovno gang. As a local leader and backed up by the prime minister, she wanted to give Rovno eye drops, which was really simple.
Now, a basin of cold water is pouring down, and I'm awake in a moment.
Not to mention the volume of terror itself, but the ability to mobilize the United States and Russia to speak together is not what they should provoke.
In the long run, Tymoshenko secretly left Kiev for Livni.
The death of yef sherban, the leader of the Donetsk Gang, has thrown the Donetsk Gang into chaos. When many people think that the Donetsk gang will completely fall into the downwind in the struggle with razarenko, they did not expect that the turn of events would come so suddenly and violently. The two world-class big brothers are concerned about the sherban assassination, and the westero system deliberately let out the wind The Donetsk Gang also responded quickly.
So, on the morning of the same day, Viktor Yanukovych, the deputy governor of Donetsk, as a representative of Donetsk Gang, went to Livni to try to contact with the Rovno gang.At the present stage, representatives of the three important forces in Ukraine gather in Livni. The core of the Rovno gang can't deal with it at all. They can only contact Simon himself.
Simon returned to the west coast of the United States on Monday, November 11. Due to the time difference, he received the news on Tuesday morning.
After listening to Celia Miller's report on the phone, even though she thought about it in advance and didn't want to make too much noise, she still found that she was exerting too much force.
I'm not surprised to think about it.
In fact, Simon underestimated the current energy of the vistro system and overestimated the bearing capacity of various forces in Ukraine in the face of pressure from the two major powers.
If Ukraine is compared to a company, it is estimated that the GDP volume of about US $45 billion this year is only a little stronger than the revenue of a danilisi Entertainment Group in the Westeros system. If we say the surplus capacity, danilisi Entertainment's net profit scale of more than US $5 billion in the past fiscal year is the end of Ukraine, which can only rely on debt.
Therefore, in terms of pure economic strength, Ukraine is not even as good as a danilisi entertainment.
As a result, no matter the Rovno Gang supported by Simon, the petrovsk Gang controlling Kiev regime, or even the Donetsk Gang, an important industrial town in eastern Ukraine, are actually only moving within such a system whose economic strength is not as good as Simon's super media and entertainment giant.
To put it mildly, as far as Simon is concerned, the disputes among various parties in Ukraine can only be regarded as the mutual pecking of vegetables and chickens.
When two onlookers under the control of the westero system, even if they didn't want to fight, they just slapped each other, and the chicken pecking each other would be scared to flee, because they didn't know whether the giant really wanted to fight down, but with the giant's strength, if it really happened, it would be the death of the chicken every minute.
Celia Miller rushed to Ukraine with her boss's advice. A private plane arrived over the state of Rovno. Looking down through the porthole, the land had fallen the first snow in winter, and many areas were covered with snow. However, compared with the villages, towns, forests and wilderness that seem quiet and even silent in the snow, rivney, the capital of the state of Rovno, which can feel some vitality at a glance, is different.
Under a clear day sky, the private plane lowered its altitude and skimmed over Livni. It can clearly see the busy scene of many construction sites in the city, and the resettlement community, which is located in the northeast of the city, is more eye-catching.
Sergei komorov and Vladimir korkoshko came to pick up the plane.
Celia got off the plane, felt the cold wind around her, shrunk her neck, and asked Sergei who came up with her in Russian after two years of training: "I saw a lot of construction sites on the plane. It's snowing. Is that ok?"
Sergei, who was wearing a black windbreaker, said: "now the daytime temperature can still be kept above zero, so the construction is not a big problem. In December, the temperature is below zero 24 hours a day. Most of the projects can only be stopped, and a small amount of work can be continued. It is only necessary to take thermal insulation measures and replace frost resistant materials. The cost will increase a lot, at least not in the resettlement community."
Celia nodded, took a pair of gloves from her assistant Emily, put them on, and walked to the motorcade that was standing by the runway.
Seeing that Celia didn't seem to be in a hurry, Vladimir couldn't help asking, "Ms. Miller, pinchuk, Tymoshenko and the deputy governor from Donetsk are all waiting in the city. What's Simon's plan?"
Celia didn't answer directly. Instead, she said, "according to my schedule, are you ready for the dinner?"
"Of course, but is it only for pinchuk?"
Celia nodded and said: "this is Simon's arrangement. We and Kuchma have always been allies, which will not change. Of course, allies should have a good relationship. Of course, this is on the premise that our allies are in the winner's position. In addition, tomorrow morning I will talk with Yanukovych. Sergei, Vladimir, you will also participate in this meeting. In order to ensure the development of Rovno, we need to control the coal resources of Donetsk. The last Tymoshenko, the boss's original words is, ignore her
Simon's core strategy for the various forces on the Ukrainian side is actually very simple, focusing on the main contradictions.
Leon Kuchma is the main contradiction.
As for others, such as Lazarenko, Simon will let him jump around, as long as the other party does not provoke himself too much, he is also happy to go to the theatre. Simon also believes that after this storm of public opinion, all parties will be cautious when they want to reach out to the state of Rovno.
Said has come to the team side.
Celia pauses to finish speaking with Sergey, and finally says, "I'll go to the villa in the south of the city to have a rest. I'll be punctual for the dinner in the evening. You can do your own business first."
They nodded, and Sergey said, "Celia, the villas we built by lake BASF have been completed. You have one. Don't you want to go and have a try?"
Celia shook her head with a smile: "no, I'll live in the villa in the south of the city tonight, and I'll go to the manor in the north of the city tomorrow evening, which is also arranged by the boss."Both of them smile to show understanding.
This is her boss asking Celia to see if a group of girls are upset.
For those girls, not to mention Vladimir korkoshko, who has his own daughter in it, the core of the westero system in other Rovno States, they are all very attentive. Of course, it is absolutely not to have some thoughts, but to avoid the attention of those girls coveted by others as far as possible, so as not to involve them in the anger of their boss.
After all, with their current status, there is no shortage of women. It is the first to ensure their wealth and power. And all this is from a young man behind a group of girls.
