Chapter 640 Is Li Mo going to take over as president?

Yu Sufu leaned back on the sofa, and his deep eyes were fixed in front of the young man who smoked without his master's permission.

The idea of letting Li Mo take a suitable identity in the political axe or the military has been in Yusuf's mind for some time.

It's just that at the beginning, Yusuf was afraid of the consequences of this idea. Once Li Mo enters the military and political department, it will be difficult to get rid of it. With Li Mo's influence in the Somali military now, coupled with the appropriate identity, the power of Somalia will be firmly controlled by him for a considerable period of time.

Yusuf and his staff subconsciously resisted Li Mo's aboveboard control of Somalia. Although Li Mo is now a legal Somali, he is a Chinese, and he is not the kind of native Chinese who has lived in Somalia for generations, but has just become a Somali citizen for several years. Is there anything wrong with handing over the power of Somalia to this person? Will the people accept it?

All aspects of problems affect Yusuf's decision.

It can be accompanied by the shock brought by Li Mo and his Star Company. To some extent, it is eliminating the resistance of the hearts of the local people. More and more discerning people realize that they should not one-sidedly reject a 'ruling' who can bring great benefits to Somalia.

It can be said that without Li Mo and his Star Company, Somalia may still be in civil war today; without Li Mo, Somalia would not have such a powerful army that could basically defend the country...

Everything seems to be brought by the young Chinese in front of us, bringing a lot of things to Somalia that we dared to do but couldn't do before.

Today, the peaceful reunification of Somalia has defeated Kenya, recovered Somaliland, which had been divided for more than a decade, and maintained and deepened diplomatic relations with many countries. Somalia has some of its own heavy industry and its own navy and air force. Somalia's overall defense force is strengthening, and the economy is gradually recovering from the downturn that has lasted for more than a decade.

Although there are still many problems in Somalia, more and more Somalis have returned to China one by one. In order to build this country, they give up their generous salaries and treatment abroad and are willing to return to their poor motherland and contribute their own strength to the country.

This indicates that Somalia has gradually embarked on a normal development path, and countless Somalis have seen the strong hope of the motherland.

Yu Sufu did not deny that he had a strong ambition for power, but when he really sat on the throne, he found that he had to pay much effort and effort to enjoy the power, otherwise this power was groundless, just like the flowers and moon in the mirror. Looking beautiful, it would be broken with a slight poke.

One more thing, You Sufu feels that he is old and can't do it. He hopes to see Somalia strong and become a powerful country in Africa in his lifetime. Therefore, Yusuf must ensure that Somalia still maintains the current stable and normal momentum of development after his retreat, at least there will be no internal problems.

If you want to maintain this, you need to give Li Mo and the Star Company he represents more power and a more stable foundation. He saw that as long as Li Mo and the Star Company he represented were stable, there would be no serious problems in Somalia.

"Mr. President, do you think it's appropriate for me to hold an official position now?" Li Mo thought about it and decided to figure out the purpose of what Yusuf said first.

When You Sufu saw Li Mo's loose tone, he was overjoyed and said, "It's appropriate! Why is it not suitable? I don't think there will be any resistance between the political axe and the military. On the contrary, it is very welcome.

The last sentence is meaningful. The implication is that Li Mo's influence in both the Somali military and political circles is very large, and no one dares to oppose Li Mo's official position. And because Li Mo is now the boss of Star Company and has great influence in the Somali business community, Li Mo has all the conditions to be in politics.

Li Mo was slightly relieved that Yu Sufu seemed to really want to be in politics and hold an official position. However, Li Mo also believes that even in this matter, Yu Sufu's conspiracy will be smashed by the strong strength in his hand.

With Yu Sufu's proposal, Li Mo also hopes to use this political approach to reconfirm the internal organizational structure of the Star Organization, especially the identity of some senior officials within the organization, and completely eliminate the hidden dangers inside.

But Li Mo still feels tricky, that is, what kind of position should he hold in the political axe?

It's definitely not good if it's low. For example, Hussein and a large number of military officers are his subordinates. As the boss of these people, Li Mo can't become their subordinates in the political axe or the army, can he?

It is a higher position than the position of Chief of General Staff of the National Defense Force. How many are there in Somalia? You can count your fingers.

"President, I don't know what kind of position I should hold?" Li Mo couldn't figure it out for a moment and looked at You Sufu. Since the other party had this proposal, he should have a suitable position in his heart.

Sure enough, President Yusuf said without hesitation, "First Vice Chairman of the National Defense Commission and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces."

Li Mo took a breath and stared at the boss.

Isn't this old man crazy? Fortunately, the first vice-chairman of the National Defense Commission said that this position is important and important, but in Somalia, the members and vice-chairmen of the National Defense Commission must have the support of local and local armies to have a real right to speak. Li Mo is the first vice chairman, and his position is definitely a little higher than that of the vice chairman of Hussein, which meets Li Mo's conditions.

But the position of commander-in-chief of the three armies is a little exaggerated. Because in most countries, this position is concurrently held by the head of state, which is to ensure the authority of the head of state and control of the army. Li Mo is the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, so what about You Sufu himself?

"I plan to nominate you as vice president to the parliament, and I believe that the parliament will be able to vote soon." Without waiting for Li Mo to speak, Yu Sufu threw out another big news.

Li Mo has been stunned. If the two positions proposed by Yu Sufu before are operated, they can still be achieved. This vice president surprised Li Mo. He knows that he is not a politician and doesn't like to be a politician. In particular, Li Mo saw from Yusuf's several proposals that Yusuf had decided to push Li Mo to the presidency in the general election.

Vice President of the Republic of Somalia, First Vice Chairman of the National Defense Commission and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces. If this exaggerated position is really held by Li Mo, no matter who is the president, he can only be a puppet. The reason why Yusuf is not a puppet is mainly because of his great reputation among the people and one of the advocates for the peaceful reunification of Somalia after the end of the civil war. Others absolutely do not have the reputation of Yusuf. They can get the support of the people and internal multi-party support, and use these hidden forces to maintain the basic powers of a country's president.

"President, you're not kidding, are you?" Li Mo asked with his mouth open. Although these positions are attractive to Li Mo, they are not difficult to refuse**. Li Mo's gaffe was mainly to see the change in Yusuf's attitude now, which was really no room for him. This moved Li Mo a little, and at the same time, he also felt great pressure.

Now behind the scenes, Li Mo said that he lived a very easy life, as long as he took into account the development of the company and ensured that he had enough funds to invest in national defense and enhance the combat effectiveness of the army. Of course, other things don't need to be more than heartfelt. But once you really walk to the stage and become the high-profile figure focused by the spotlight, behind the infinite scenery, there is only heavy pressure.

If he is not in his position, Li Mo at least doesn't need to work for Somalia's economy, people's livelihood and other issues. If you have a chance to provide some help, just forget it if you don't have a chance. But sitting in that position, with Li Mo's surname, he will never sit idly by.

Seeing Yu Sufu's firm and encouraging eyes, Li Mo's mind was very confused. Do I really want to be the first Chinese president in Africa?

"Li Mo, I don't know what you are worried about, but I know what I'm worried about." Seeing that Li Mo did not agree directly, Yu Sufu couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"It's just the two of us here, and what we say will not come out of this room. Li Mo, to put it bluntly, do you think it's a good thing for Somalia for others to sit in this position? Yusuf's tone was full of concerns about the future political situation in Somalia.

Yusuf is not the head of those narrow-minded local warlords, but people with far-sighted vision and great ambitions. There is no doubt about Yusuf's ability to rise in troubled times and circulate among many forces without the support of foreign forces and to lay the sky in chaotic Somalia. He saw the hidden crisis in the current stable and peaceful situation in Somalia.

That is, the Star Company has become a big company and firmly controlled the army. In the people, because of several wars of land recovery and anti-aggression, and the accumulation of great prestige. With guns, money and the hearts of the people, who can suppress this force? Even he himself felt overwhelmed and had to make a huge compromise. What can his successor do in the face of this situation?

Yusuf does not think that everyone who can serve as president is as ambitious as him. At the same time, he does not lack love for the motherland and the inclusive and compromise surname. As a president, without any influence on the army, Yusuf can be calm. What about the successor? Once the successor has a bad idea for power and ambition, it is bound to trigger the turbulence of the situation in Somalia, lead to fierce confrontation of internal contradictions, and even a strong reaction from the military.

Africa is a continent with frequent changes of state power. The military coup is the most direct and bloody way. Once the situation in Somalia changes significantly, it is bound to undermine the hard-won peace in Somalia. It has a serious impact on the gradually recovering economy.

One more thing, You Sufu has carefully learned about Star Company, and there is also a worry in his heart. If Li Mo can't control the army in the future, it will lead to the division of the Star Company, which will bring more harm to Somalia.
