Chapter 156 Sukarno Approval
Sukarno entertained Soviet guests who came to Indonesia as a host. He acted like a leader of a great power in every move. This is what Sukarno is like. These founding leaders have this kind of confidence that appears at any time, but Sukarno's confidence is a bit too high, and there is no difference between a strong and a weak country in his eyes.
"I wonder if you have any arrogant regret when you were under house arrest by Suharto?" Selov drank an unknown drink in his mouth, looked at Sukarno's smile and thought to himself, "Well, it's good! The taste is OK..."
Given Sukarno's famous reputation for being lustful, Selov put Iseymotney and Lukani in the embassy this time. It is better not to always show up for women who are too beautiful. Compared to the internal affairs cadres around Selov, Sukarno is much more colorful. His three wives are around him, and there are also a group of beauties! Sukarno is quite content with his smile. He has never restrained himself since he was hung up.
After a dance in Indonesia ended, Selov applauded at the right time. Under his guidance, the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs, who had no expression on his face and didn't know what to do, followed him and shot a sparse applause, which made these Indonesian girls perform in vain.
"Vice Chairman Sukarno doesn't seem to be coming to us to talk about things. Is it just coming to us to watch singing and dancing?" Korensky, the major general of the Ministry of Internal Affairs beside Selov, asked impatiently.
Korensky's experience in the Ministry of Internal Affairs was similar to Aliksay, but Aliksay was lucky and became the director of the KGB General Administration. Korensky's luck was much worse and he was exiled to Gruu! He is now the deputy head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs led by Selov. If the plan goes well, the fifty-year-old Korensky will be the commander of the Soviet Union who stayed to help Indonesia establish a police system.
"This is the style of this president. We can only wait and think about us and watch it before this!" Selov said while drinking juice. "Don't forget why we are. Patience is also part of our work!"
"These third world countries are always immersed in their own happiness like this!" Korensky muttered in surprise.
"A country like this can become a chess piece in our hands, and it will not bite back!" Selov easily watched the next program, and continued to applaud the cadres of the Ministry of Internal Affairs from time to time! The main topic will definitely appear. It doesn't matter if it is sooner or later. As long as the final result is good, it is good.
When the song and dance had passed away, just an hour later, President Sukarno, who was still unsatisfied, returned to the presidential palace. At the same time, Serov and the eight internal affairs cadres behind him came in. It was time to talk about the main business.
Both sides were looking for topics carefully. At first, they were just chatting. Finally, President Sukarno asked, "Vice Chairman Selov, Khrushchev has just left our country. He has left a deep impression on our country. I wonder what you officials below think?"
The topic is here! Selov keenly grasped the changes in the topic and said with a serious expression, "The enthusiastic people, the comfortable climate, many Soviets may envy the Indonesian environment! But President Sukarno certainly did not want to hear these, so I will say some questions for your reference. Indonesia's security problems are very serious! There are legal blind spots in many areas. The local people do not accept the jurisdiction of the government, but seek help from religion and even the army. This situation is really bad!"
"What's wrong?" Although President Sukarno was still laughing, he actually knew that now was the time to talk about the main topic. He knew about Handayani's visit to the Soviet Union. He also knew that the changes after returning and his praise for the Soviet Union. As a president, although he did not have such obvious political groups as the generals of the army and the Communist Party of Indonesia, he also had his own channels!
If we follow the American standards, Sukarno is a person with great potential for a dictator! Serov does not disagree with certain views of Americans, but what we hate is double standards! Because the country that supports dictators the most is the Americans themselves, and Americans can also turn a blind eye to their own shit and accuse other countries of not being free enough! This is very disgusting.
"The military's responsibilities are unclear, and it has a great influence in society! It has a hidden concern about a military coup!" Shelov leaned on the chair and had a lazy temperament, but his words were astonishing as he said.
"General Selov, you seem to have exaggerated the situation!" Sukarno felt a little uncomfortable. Maybe the other party was too straightforward. "Do you think I have no prestige in Indonesia? Or do you think the people hate me?"
"I don't doubt your prestige, but the army is the army, and the people are the people! As far as we observe, the two forces in Indonesia don't like each other, and you have been preventing their confrontation in the middle! But this is very dangerous. Once the balance is broken, you can't play the role of President Sukarno!" Shelov's face remained unchanged and told the news he learned.
"Then why aren't you a communist? Maybe you have exaggerated the dangers of the military because the Indonesian Communist Party has a good relationship with you!" Sukarno calmly launched a counterattack. From what he said just now, he already understood that Selov's investigation of Indonesia was very thorough, and it would be inappropriate to conceal it. Instead, it was necessary to lead Selov's purpose to come to Indonesia.
"Are those little Bolsheviks? They lack a characteristic of a true Communist!" Selov commented without hesitation at all. At the same time, the division between the Soviet Union and China showed that the two countries were not entirely a member of the same country. "The relationship between the Communist Party of Indonesia and China is very good, but the relationship with our Soviet Union is just average! Furthermore, the Communist Party of Indonesia is useless!"
This is equivalent to telling Sukarno that the relationship between the Soviet Union and China is not as good as it seems, and there are contradictions, so that we can talk to Sukarno with a more honest attitude.
Sukarno fell into a long silence. This news was enough for him to think about it for a while. Then he said that he was exhausted and would continue to talk about this matter tomorrow! Serov took the cadres of the Soviet delegation to say goodbye and returned to the Soviet embassy to wait for the news.
The next day, Selov arrived at the Indonesian Presidential Palace again. Sukarno obviously did not continue to play games once, so he went to the topic with Selov and others and said, "Yes, I don't trust the pro-American military, but I also have doubts about the Indonesian Communist Party. If you want to fight against the United States, I understand that I can agree to expand the Ministry of Internal Affairs..."
This is the result of Sukarno's consideration in one night. It seems that the Soviet Union has clearly noticed the value of Indonesia, and at the same time discovered the American attempts and prepared to confront the United States!
Serov suppressed the ecstasy in his heart. He understood that Sukarno's level had passed. The restlessness of the military made Sukarno determined to introduce the power of the Soviet Union and check and balance the army with a strong pro-American atmosphere! (To be continued.)
