Santiago is the capital and largest city of Chile. The name Santiago is very common among Spanish-speaking colonies. This is the name of many important cities in Spanish-speaking countries, and the same is true for Cuba. The Soviet Union's special plane to attend the conference first arrived at Havana, the capital of Cuba. Before the conference, the Soviet delegation first visited Cuba.

Brezhnev and Castro hugged each other affectionately to express their friendship, and Serov had more important things to do. Ustinov could not get out of the domestic military plan, so Serov did this. He found Raul Castro, who is an important supporter of Castro in the military and has always led the Cuban army. If Serov remembers correctly, Castro's younger brother also maintained a world record. He is the person who has served as the Minister of Defense for the longest time, and he will not let Castro's assassination record be exclusively above the previous one.

The two discussed the issue of the Cuban revolutionary armed forces. The Soviet Union hoped that the Cuban army could make certain adjustments. In the entire Latin America, Cuba's military force was only behind Brazil in terms of number of personnel. If the combat effectiveness factor is taken into account, the Brazilian army may not be an opponent, and only the United States can suppress Cuba.

If Cuba exists for a day, the Soviet Union will get a lot of benefits from it. As long as this anti-American country exists in the United States, it is worth the continuous investment of the Soviet Union. "We mean to establish a powerful airborne force in Cuba. If it is the number of people, I hope that the number of people will be 80,000, accounting for about one-third of the Cuban army." While Brezhnev and Castro communicated revolutionary feelings, Serov was also discussing issues with Raul Castro.

The largest airborne troops in the world were in the Soviet Union, with a population of more than 200,000, and this force was used to attack Europe. The Soviet Union's Red Navy is still lacking, which takes time to make up for it. However, this does not mean that Cuba has no means to threaten the United States, that is, the airborne troops. In Cuba, support a powerful airborne troops, and even if they do nothing, the United States will be vigilant and always focus on Cuba.

"But we do not have the economic ability to support this army, which may require great help from the Soviet Union." Raul Castro did not avoid Cuba's difficulties. In this era, many countries themselves could not afford a huge army.

"Our General Secretary respects the military's opinions very much, and the Ministry of National Defense agrees with this matter." Selov did not directly say that there was no problem, but told Raul Castro from the side what the Soviet Union's attitude was.

Large-scale paratrooper operations require the cooperation of ground troops, and shallow depth is easier to succeed. Large-scale paratroopers have the battles where the German Crete Battle has achieved the purpose of the campaign, but paratroopers have suffered heavy losses. The large-scale use of paratroopers must be favorable to their own side, such as air supremacy, and then used to speed up the war process. Generally, they must cooperate with the main attack and are not very likely to undertake separate combat tasks. Due to their own restrictions, paratroopers cannot carry heavy weapons, and logistical supplies are also a problem with heavy armored vehicles. Therefore, if both sides are evenly matched, it is equivalent to sending them to gain experience. In the famous airborne battles in history, most of the successes are own absolute advantages, and those who fail are basically the same strength and take risks.

Cuba certainly has no air superiority to the United States, but it is not without favorable conditions. The favorable condition is the distance between Cuba and the United States. You should know that the reason why millions of people succeeded in seeking the United States is because the distance between the two sides was too short. After the successful landing of seeking freedom, the United States quickly canceled the policy of giving a green card to Cubans when they could arrive in the United States.

As long as Cuba issued an identity certificate, it could be said to be a Cuban, and it would be difficult to guarantee that there would be no second smuggling operation. As far as Serov knew, the current situation in Florida seems to be very bad. After the Soviet law thief group landed, it brought a new force to the American gang culture. These opponents who had been entangled with Cheka for decades began to take root in the United States.

The public security in Florida plummeted, and people from the United States began to flee the state. The situation lasted for a few years and the state was about to be destroyed. Because there were no black people in Eastern European countries, the situation of these landed people discriminating against black people was also serious. Several large-scale conflicts were inevitable with the joining of Eastern European groups. As for many people who wanted to return home and did not want to stay in the United States, I'm sorry, all Eastern European countries, including the Soviet Union, did not respond.

Back to the topic, among the people in Florida, it is not that there is no KGB, they are hidden among the stowaways and continue to serve the Soviet Union. Once Cuba establishes a powerful airborne force, these people can also convey messages to Cuba.

"As a member of the camp, Cuba is certainly willing to shoulder its collective responsibility." Raul Castro did not say too clearly, and it was enough for both sides to click.

When Santiago, the capital of Chile, began to gather socialist parties all over the world, the American media expressed extraordinary concern for this World and Workers' Party Congress. In the past, such congresses were held in Moscow. This was the first time that it was held within the traditional sphere of influence in Latin America. Some conservative media in the United States were full of hostility, and they just said that a earthquake in Santiago would kill all the parties attending the meeting. As for the culprit, Selov, who made Brezhnev just hold a talk with Nixon?

Compared to the media's excitement, the White House has taken cold measures. The US government cannot fire at this time at will. Although they hate Allende more than anyone else, if something happens during the conference, hundreds of parties will probably fight with the Americans, and countries around the world will enter the United States to cause trouble. From this consideration, the United States hopes that the congress will be calmer than anyone else, and Nixon also publicly stated that this is Chile's own right.

On September 25, a joint delegation of the Soviet Union and Cuba arrived in Santiago, the capital of Chile, and was warmly welcomed by Chilean President Allende. Allende and Brezhnev shook hands and hugged each other tightly.

The two took a car to Chile's Presidential Palace. The Palazzo La Moneda is located in the center of Santiago and is the presidential palace of Chile. The Palazzo La Moneda means currency in Spanish because it used to be the Royal Mint.

The La Moneda Palace was held in Chile since the 1920s and some government departments worked here, and in the 1950s, it became a national historical site in Chile.

The north gate of Lamoneda Palace is facing Plaza Constitution. On the square is a bronze statue of General Voykins, the pioneer of Chile's liberation movement. Under the pedestal, the general's remains are placed in the marble coffin at the altar of the motherland. Two fully armed guards guard the general's heroes day and night. General Voykins is the founding father of Chile and has contributed his life to the liberation of Chile.

Brezhnev, Andropov and Selov also visited General Vojkins's bronze statue and entered the Ramoneda Palace. Allende had prepared a dinner to welcome the delegations of Chile and Cuba.

"From the report, Allende has encountered trouble and strikes occur from time to time. In fact, this is unlikely. Have you ever seen countries that implement socialist systems strike so frequently?" At night, Selov stood in front of the hotel where he was staying and asked Andropov next to him. It was not that there was no strike in the Soviet Union, but that a socialist country must first ensure that people have jobs, and that such frequent strikes will basically not occur when people work. There is no unemployed person in the Soviet Union...

"It's really strange that President Allende's approval rating is not low. Why do we see different situations? Many people who asked were satisfied with President Allende's policies. Why are they opponents in the eyes of others?" Andropov also said strangely.

"Some people are making trouble, some are like the situation in France, the unity of capitalists." Serov said to himself, "If some people are deliberately looking for trouble, it will be easy to explain. Speculation will deliberately cause social instability."

"They have found the wrong opponent. We and our allies support something, enough to defeat these local merchants and factory owners in Chile." Andropov smiled confidently, "But will President Allende accept our help?"

"It must be made to let him know that it is difficult for a country to develop under lockdown, especially in Latin America. The United States is too strong. Don't you think the price of copper has dropped strangely? The pricing power is in their hands. However, the decline in ore prices is good for us. Although we have encountered some difficulties in Chile, the preparations in Congo have begun. When we sign the European security agreement, we will take action in Congo." After smoking a cigarette and Andropov strolled in the square for a while, the two returned to the hotel.

Chile is the country with the richest copper resources in the world, and the country with the most copper and exports in the world. It enjoys the reputation of the "copper mine kingdom". The Atacama Desert in the territory is the world's drought. In addition, it is also the only country in the world that produces saltpeter. However, the pricing power of these two things is in the hands of Britain and the United States. However, the Soviet Union was a completely different system, and it was easier to seize it than China in later generations, because the Soviet allies also needed resources, and it would be much better to have Chile's help. The Soviet Union and all the allies were still a piece of cake to bring up Chile.
