For example, some landlocked countries do not have the so-called shipbuilding industry at all. In addition, few merchant ships in Brazil and Chile pass through the Suez Canal. After all, the canal is located in northeastern Egypt, connecting the Mediterranean and the Red Sea...

Although the representatives of the countries did not say anything clearly, after the Council meeting, they needed to make real efforts to send a fleet. They used various reasons to vacate Russia's proposed invitation.

The French representative gave a clear reply five days later, "France is very supportive of Russia's encirclement and suppression of Somalia piracy. However, since our French fleet is currently being reorganized and rectified, it is not convenient to send ships to participate in this operation."

This is just the official reason given by the French. The fundamental reason is that they have counted the merchant ships affected by Somali pirates in the past two years. The economic losses caused by the discovery were not large. They were not as good as non-sent fleets and long-term stations.

Including Britain, there are not many import and export merchant ships on the Suez Canal (the UK does not belong to the Mediterranean country and is very little affected by Somali pirates). Therefore, the economic impact it has been greatly affected by Russia and some Mediterranean coastal countries.

"Because our British fleets are carrying out missions recently, they can be drawn out to participate in the encirclement and suppression, which is very small. Therefore, it is difficult for us to participate in this joint operation. However, our British will still support this just behavior of Russia very much."

...

Many countries, like France and Britain, shouted to support the action on the spot, but behind their backs, they refused to send fleets, and did not even donate. They were just waiting for Russia to do good deeds and help clear the hidden dangers of Somali pirates. In this way, they could enjoy their achievements without paying any price and gain benefits. It was a pleasant comparison.

In the end, only the country Z and Ukraine were willing to send fleets to station in Somalia together with Russia for a long time to protect the safety of passing merchant ships.

"Mr. Mavie, at present, only country Z and Ukraine are willing to accept our proposal and send a fleet to encircle Somali pirates. Now you see, what should we do?" Two weeks later, the dust settled, and all the countries that had cheered before were unwilling to get into this muddy water.

Listening to the Russian Foreign Ministry officials asking on the phone, Mawei felt that it was time for these countries that wanted to get something for nothing, and that they learned that their ideas were very wrong.

"Let's call three parties first and arrange the basic tactics and strategies. Then I believe that in the near future, other countries will understand it." Ma Wei said on the phone with a faint tone.

He is not a Virgin, a White Lotus, or a Savior. He believes that there is a demerit and a Lord, and there is no free lunch in the world. Since other countries are unwilling to contribute, don't blame him for making the worst plan.

That is, except for the merchant ships of three countries, other countries can manage them, and they cannot manage them or force them. After all, manpower and material resources are limited, so Russian soldiers and Ukrainian soldiers are exhausted and busy at sea.

If you escort merchant ships from other countries and cause your own ships to be poisoned by Somali pirates, wouldn't you be scolded to death by the people and mocked by facts...

"Okay, Mr. Mavie, then I'll make arrangements now." The Foreign Ministry official replied briefly on the phone.

Although he didn't know what method Mavi would use to improve the current situation. However, based on someone's legendary color, the Foreign Ministry officials still trusted him to handle it very much.

Three hours later, the representatives of Country Z, Ukraine, and Russian military representatives were all connected online. Mawei, who initiated the multi-party talks, said on the phone simply and clearly, "Thank you for taking the time to participate in this talks. This is how it is. Regarding the next joint combat against Somalia piracy, what do you think or provide good tactics?"

"Mr. Mavie, we also participated in the attack and encirclement and suppression of Somali piracy last year. Although that time was not large, during the operation, we found that it was very difficult to crack down on pirates. They were very mobile, and often two or three speedboats, plus a few AKs, could quickly rob merchant ships. This greatly increased the difficulty of encirclement and suppression..."

The Russian military and the Ukrainian military have also participated in the fight against piracy. However, the effect is very small. Although the strength of the two sides is very different, Russia and Ukrainian warships and equipment must completely abuse Somali pirates. But the other party is playing with a shot and changing the place, and then robbing the ship and driving.

So when the fleet arrives, the pirates often succeed and flee back to Somali territorial waters with trophy. This is not that the fleets of the two countries are incompetent, but that they have not had much contact with the pirates and have not found an effective way to deal with it for the time being (when the pirate hidden dangers broke out, countries used to take the initiative to attack and search everywhere when dealing with Somali pirates. Only later did they find out some experiences).

After hearing this, Ma Wei didn't say anything, but just asked the representative of Country Z indifferently, "Is there anything that needs to be added?"

After hearing this, the representative of Country Z replied politely, "We don't have one yet, Mr. Mawei, don't know what your suggestion?"

After hearing this, Ma Wei pondered for a moment, and then said to the representatives of the Three Kingdoms of Hungry, Wu and Z on the phone, "My suggestion is that instead of taking the initiative to attack and encircle and suppress everywhere, it is better to wait for the effort and focus on defense. After all, the goal of pirates is to rob merchant ships. As we all know, pirates can be said to be the illegal organization that coastal countries hate the most."

"Generally speaking, pirates appear in small groups, and several speedboats are their entire possessions. It is precisely because of the good mobility and concealment of speedboats. Their position on the sea is often erratic, which makes it a sharp increase in the difficulty of encircling and suppressing pirates. For this reason, defense is the main focus, that is, providing escort for civilian ships to achieve the purpose of expelling or arresting pirates..."

"Of course, considering the number of ships entering and leaving the Suez Canal is really huge. The fleets sent by our three countries will inevitably be unable to do so. So I suggest that every merchant ship should be equipped with high-pressure water guns. This can effectively hinder pirates from boarding the ship and create difficulties for them. Buy time for the fleet to arrive in time..."
