Chapter 797 Round Table
On the sixth floor of the third OECD headquarters, in a spacious conference room, a world-renowned meeting will be held here.
Senior military representatives from five countries from Asia and Africa will hold the first senior military conference of the Third OECD here.
At 7:45 a.m., when Syria represented Ali, the deputy commander-in-chief of the General Command of the Syrian Armed Forces? Lieutenant General Taras took two colonel officers into the conference room, and an Iranian military staff member closed the door of the conference room.
Because the number of participants at the meeting was very small, each country only sent three representatives, so a round table was arranged in the conference room. The main representatives of five member countries sat at the table, and the other 10 attendant representatives sat in the back.
In a corner of the conference room, two Iranian military cameramen are setting up cameras to record part of the meeting. This is not a live broadcast, but a recording and saving. Some less important pictures will be made public when necessary.
Therefore, this meeting is also known as the 'round table'.
Because they are all around a round table, there is no primary and secondary. Li Mo's position is on the south of the conference room. On his left is General Lu Yuanshu, the representative of North Korea, member of the National Defense Commission and Chief of General Staff, and on his right is Major General Safawi, the commander-in-chief of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
Because the highest military ranks of several [***] teams are different, there are not military rank-level titles in the meeting, but direct titles.
First of all, the meeting was delivered by Safawi, the commander-in-chief of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards. It was very short and concise, and there was no lengthy incitement. Everyone was a soldier, perhaps half a politician, but the subject was a soldier, and he liked it in a more direct and simple way.
After Commander Safavi's speech, Colonel Monzier, Vice Chairman of the Libyan General Defense Council and Commander of the Revolutionary Guard, immediately threw out the first theme of today's meeting, that is, to form a fast reaction force under the Third Economic and Economic Council.
Of course, in Monzil's mouth, the significance of the establishment of this force is an anti-terrorism peacekeeping force against terrorism.
"This year, the situation in the Middle East and West Asia is getting worse and worse. In order to fight against the Iraqi anti-American guerrillas and Afghan Taliban forces represented by former Iraqi President Saddam, who came out of the mountain again, the U.S. military has strengthened military investment in these areas. According to preliminary statistics, the number of U.S. troops in these areas alone has reached To the scale of 300,000 people. We will not discuss the justice of these wars for the time being. What our political axe is very worried about is another thing, that is, under the high pressure of the U.S. military, some radical terrorists and organizations may flee these chaotic areas and find new secret bases in neighboring other countries. Commander Monzier said awe-inspiringly, "Counter-terrorism is the main international military task at present, and it is also an urgent political task. As a new regional organization in the world, the third economic cooperation has the responsibility to make further breakthroughs in anti-terrorism operations. We should abandon some inherent untimely ideas in the current new Under the precipitous international situation, we should take anti-terrorism as an important event, so we must make corresponding strategic changes as the situation changes. Therefore, our political axe proposes that under the framework of the Military Commission, we should take the protection of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries as the primary principle for the global anti-terrorism trend. With new achievements, China's political axe proposes to form an anti-terrorism force composed of elite officers and soldiers from member countries to carry out transnational anti-terrorism tasks. She will become a sharp sword in the hands of the Third OECD and completely eliminate all terrorists who try to destroy terrorist attacks.
Commander Monzil opened his mouth and talked a lot. It seems that he made a lot of preparations before he came, and what he said was basically in line with the reality. Moreover, in order to put the establishment of this team on a legal and bright coat, he deliberately ignored some problems and factors.
Li Mo drew randomly on the notebook with a golden pen in his hand, but there was a serious expression on his face. After talking with Safavid last night, he has understood that at today's meeting, it is inevitable to pass the formation of the 'anti-terrorism force'. Libya and Syria put forward this proposal, indicating that they have begun to worry that the formation of this force is to protect themselves, and Iran's political axe has also chosen to agree. Li Mo himself is also inclined to Agreeing to form such an army, the last North Korea's attitude towards this matter is definitely dispensable. After all, it is an East Asian country, unlike several other member countries. From a geopolitical point of view, North Korea has no benefits in this matter, and there is no harm.
Four countries agree, and another country is neutral, which has exceeded more than half. It is inevitable that this proposal will be adopted.
The real purpose of the first topic of today's meeting is how to seek the greatest benefit for yourself. This anti-terrorism force is nominally subordinate to the Military Commission, but in fact it is certainly not so simple. Just like the United Nations peacekeeping force, except for those civilian staff, the military force actually has more than half of the country's autonomy.
So don't underestimate such an anti-terrorism force, which has great real significance and role. If you master this force, you can indirectly spread your influence to your allies. A legal armed force can appear in the land of allies with a high degree of freedom to perform some special tasks, which will not be ignored by any country and political axe.
However, it is impossible to control this force, and other countries will not allow it. What everyone really needs to fight for is the right to speak in this army, that is, the strength of each country in this force.
After the Libyan commander Monzil delivered a speech, the Syrian deputy commander-in-chief of Taras also followed him to express his views, basically echoing Monzil. Everyone was prepared for this and was not surprised.
Therefore, the proposal was unanimously adopted in just half an hour, and even the representatives of North Korea voted for it. As a result, the first armed force of the Third Economic Republic was officially established.
According to the discussion, the name of this unit is 'Third State Anti-Terrorism Force', and its members will be composed of elite soldiers from member countries. The size of the force is initially set at 1,000, including 150 special forces and a battalion of 500 regular troops and civilian personnel. It is composed of a headquarters, a special detachment and a rapid reaction battalion.
The special detachment is called the 'Third Commando', and the Fast Anti Battalion is called the 'Third Assault Battalion'
Because this force is still experimental, in order to avoid changes, everyone agrees that countries will send the same number of soldiers to form together, rather than a country sending more officers and soldiers to lead the force. However, everyone understands that the current team is still small, and everyone can afford it. Once it needs to be expanded, the staff will be increased. A country like North Korea, which does not care much about this force, will certainly not send more elite officers and soldiers to serve others. At that time, it depends on what other member countries think. There is a gap between which one is more and which one is less.
Then, the expressions of several representatives became solemn, because the next content is important, that is, about the commander and station of this team.
From the previous conclusion, this force is under the command of the staff of the Military Commission. In important operational tasks, it is equivalent to accepting the joint command of the staff sent by five member countries. However, this staff is only a plan of action plan for review, and the specific actions will definitely delegate power to the force. Commander, so the position of this commander is very important.
Li Mo is also very enthusiastic about the position of the commander, but he knows that he may not have included this position in his pocket, because the main purpose of the current establishment of this army is not for anti-terrorism, but for internal suppression of rebels. Anti-terrorism is just a gorgeous package.
Libya and Syria have painstedious efforts to put forward such a proposal, and they are even suspected of 'bringing wolves into the house'. In order to preserve their dominance, they have paid a lot. If this commander's position is not available, they will never give up.
So Li Mo estimated that this command might fall on the two families in the end. Li Mo is not sure who won the position.
Libya and Syria have both pros and cons in competing for this position. Syria's advantage is that its comprehensive national strength is stronger than that of Libya, and Syria's position is critical. It is adjacent to Israel. The long-term conflict and confrontation with Israel have made Syria's domestic problems very serious. Many contradictions in front of her are on the trend of breaking out. Syria's competition for the commander and station of this team. Sufficient reasons.
Libya is rich, but the population is Libya's biggest shortcoming, and Libya has joined the Third Economic Co-Consortia for less than a year, that is to say, Libya is still an 'observer' status now. In important decisions, only the proposed power has no voting power, although this power has been friendly by other member countries. It's vague, but this matter always exists. It's also troublesome for Syria to talk about it. However, Liabi also has a competitive advantage, that is, Libya's military strength is weak. An elite thousand-person force can exert greater 'influence' in Libya. Iran, North Korea and even Li Mo hope to expand their influence through this force. If the station is stationed in Libya, the effect can be seen immediately. On the contrary, if it is placed in Syria, with hundreds of thousands of troops and paramilitary forces, this small-scale elite armed force can play little role.
The following scene was really unexpected by Li Mo. He did not reveal his ideas about this position, and North Korea was also watching. Anyway, they would not participate in the competition. Commander Safawi of Iran did not seem to be interested. The representatives of the three countries watched the representatives of Libya and Syria use various reasons to express their "urgent needs" for this team.
