MTL - Big Time 1958-Chapter 891 Samaranch

"Which country participates in the Los Angeles Olympics is the enemy of peace, the orphans and widows of Grenada have not received an apology from the United States, especially Reagan's apology." After the May Day Parade in Moscow, Gromyko ran to the Soviet Union's allies Officially, either the venue will be set in Moscow, or it will not participate in the Los Angeles Olympics.

"It is a very shameless act for the Soviets to link sports and politics." Reagan said publicly when he heard the news, "The hostility of the Soviet Union is unreasonable, and General Secretary Serov's personal reasons are the main factor. "

"Reagan did not apologize in the name of the country. The Soviet Union will never participate in the Olympics. Now I want to see which country is willing to participate in the Olympics. As a friend of Grenada, the Soviet Union can provide civil aviation to help Grenada participate in this Olympics. After all, the Soviet Union is a big country in charge." This kind of air-mouth cannon can make Serov, who is thick-skinned and thicker than the city wall, submit? This kind of thinking is simply an insult to the profession of a spy chief.

  The Olympic Movement has gone through ups and downs since its revival. This time, Los Angeles is facing the most serious crisis, which threatens the development of the Olympic movement. While Los Angeles was going all out to prepare for the Olympics, the U.S. army sent troops to invade Grenada. This move was immediately condemned by world public opinion and brought a crisis to the Los Angeles Olympics. Serov began to seek ways to sanction the United States. General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Serov issued a statement: If the United States does not apologize and pay compensation in the dual name of the state and the president, the Soviet Union will boycott the Los Angeles Olympics.

The battlefield between the Soviet Union and the United States took the Olympics as the battlefield. She was lucky to escape the last boycott of Serov, and soon made a move at the Los Angeles Olympics. Soviet Foreign Minister Gromyko and First Deputy Minister Dobrynin went abroad one after another. Non-stop visits to pro-Soviet and neutral countries.

At the same time as the boycott, there is a diplomatic war. "Among the neutral countries, India and China have the highest prestige, so these two countries are the most important. As long as the support of these two countries is obtained, the Olympic Games will inevitably become the American Games. , no matter what method is used, whether it is civil attack or martial arts, interest win or class feelings, both China and India must join the boycott. Even if they participate, they cannot participate in the name of the country. Let’s talk about the former first, then the latter, and the last The good thing is that neither India nor China will participate." This was the task that Serov gave to the Soviet Foreign Ministry.

Serov knew that this boycott must hold the neutral powers, otherwise it would not be able to win completely, and the biggest reason why the Soviet boycott failed in history was that China participated in the Los Angeles Olympics. As the second largest country in the socialist camp, China’s Participation in the Soviet Union was a huge embarrassment, and it also exposed the real situation that the Soviet camp was not monolithic. Socialist countries such as Romania and Yugoslavia participated in the Los Angeles Olympics, marking the failure of the Soviet boycott.

  The Soviet Union was unable to win even the countries of its own camp, let alone the neutral countries of the third world. In the end, only nineteen countries participated in the Soviet boycott. Fortunately for the Americans, the Chinese team's commitment to participate has inspired people and brought surprises to the United States. Afterwards, the good news continued. Only 19 countries and regions boycotted and did not participate due to some reasons. Finally, athletes from 140 countries and regions participated in this Olympic Games, which is far more than the previous Olympic Games. Among the Eastern European countries, Romania and Yugoslavia also participated in the Olympic Games. The audience at the opening ceremony welcomed these brave people who broke through the political barriers with applause.

   For the Soviet Union, this was a complete failure, especially compared to the Moscow Olympics four years ago. The two boycotts initiated by the United States and the Soviet Union immediately showed the real balance of power. It is easy to see who has more supporters. The favorable conditions now are that the Moscow Olympics have not been boycotted, so naturally there is no comparison. This is unilaterally disgusting Reagan by the big spy chief.

   This boycott and anti-boycott surrounding the Los Angeles Olympics has become a hot topic recently. In a few days, more than 40 countries have announced to join the boycott in response to the call of the Soviet Union.

"In what name do you persuade me? Is it the IOC president who is pressuring me, or is it advising me in the name of a subordinate? What do you say? Comrade Samaranch? You will not forget how you became an international The president of the Olympic Committee, right? It’s not the Soviet Union that nods, you have the qualifications to travel back and forth between countries in the world?” Serov looked at the president of the International Olympic Committee indifferently, and said slowly, “What position do you speak to me? Forget it. Did the KGB help you?"

   "General Secretary, I am the President of the International Olympic Committee. Of course I have to find a way to save the Olympics." Samaranch understands Russian. He used to be the Spanish ambassador to the Soviet Union, but he joined the KGB even longer than that.

"It's also saving the gaming industry that is linked to your interests?" Sheloff snorted and said indifferently, "What? Is it delaying some people's money, don't be in a hurry to deny it, I know the gaming industry very well, even you know better than you. ."

Of course, the chief spy knows this very well. His relationship with UEFA and FIFA is unbelievable. earn.

"Isn't this very good? Moscow is about to host the World Democracy Games. You can understand that this time the Olympic Games are co-hosted by Moscow and Los Angeles, but they are divided into two venues." Samaranch's current status, Serov also It is not easy to criticize at will as a real subordinate, and it is not easy to support an IOC president.

   Samaranch can be used for at least a few decades, and it is a good deal for the KGB department.

   "Can you promote it like this?" Samaranch's voice was a bit submissive, he didn't dare to insist on his own opinion, even when he was facing Reagan and Carter, he didn't feel that way. And since he was absorbed by the KGB, his whole world has changed, and now no one thinks it is credible, and there is even a thought in his heart that as long as he chooses to betray, he will be killed immediately.

   This feeling has never disappeared since he became the president of the International Olympic Committee. Even in Samaranch's eyes, many well-known figures in the world may be members of the KGB. This kind of feeling is quite right. Even Günter Guillaume, the No. 2 figure in the Socialist Party of the Federal Republic of Germany, is a member of the Stasi, and it is strange that there are several world-renowned bigwigs in the KGB.

"You can make such propaganda, but the Soviet Union will not respond." Serov, who turned his back to Samaranch, said calmly, "But the Soviet Union will not object to this kind of propaganda. It is also because your work is not easy. For the sake of it. The boycott will continue, and it will not stop just because you came this time."

   After hearing this, Samaranch knew that this persuasion had been unsuccessful, and it was because of the attitude of the Soviet Union. The Eastern European countries will certainly not cancel the boycott, but the work has to continue, and he has to prove to the Americans that he is indeed saving the Olympic Games hosted by the United States, even if it is a superficial job.

  Under the will of countries like the United States and the Soviet Union, what an IOC president can do is very limited. Samaranch's rush was doomed to be in vain, as the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan did not take place, without contrast. The Soviet Union's boycott of the Los Angeles Olympics this time is not a counterattack, but a unilateral embarrassment to the United States. From a personal point of view, Reagan was walking on the street, and Serov suddenly appeared in the corner and gave him a brick, turned and ran.

   On May 8th, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union Serov officially announced in Moscow that Moscow will host the International Democracy Games, which will be held at the time of the Los Angeles Olympic Games. All major Olympic stadiums in Moscow will be reopened, and all peace-loving countries in the world are welcome to participate.

   After this news was released by the Soviet TASS news agency, it caused another earthquake all over the world. All countries understood that this time the Soviet Union was playing a real game. Not only did they boycott the Los Angeles Olympics, but they also held their own World Games at the same time.

"The Soviet Union's behavior is to divide the world, which is tantamount to world peace. We all understand that this is not Grenada's problem, but the Soviet Union's problem." The White House spokesman accused the Soviet Union of unilateral provocation with a heavy expression, "A divided world does not help the cause of peace, and the United States believes that the Soviet Union has become a threat to world peace."

"This is not what a country that is supporting the rebels in Nicaragua should say!" Dobrynin, the first deputy foreign minister of the Soviet Union who was visiting, sternly criticized, "The United States will inevitably launch a war within ten years. This is the destruction of the cause of world peace, and the Soviet Union's boycott is very reasonable, as evidenced by the support of so many countries."

   There are various news about boycotting the Olympic Games in the world at this time. There are rumors that the Soviet Union has won the support of nearly 100 countries, and nearly 50 countries have expressed their opinions. Such rumors put enormous pressure on the Los Angeles Olympic Committee.

   "The first batch of invitations for the International Democracy Games must include China and India." Serov, who signed the budget with a pen, said, "Ask them what they want, whether they want an aircraft carrier, and make one for them at cost."

   A heavier blow came. President Samaranch, who had nothing to gain, put forward a proposal, which can be understood as the Olympic Games held by two cities. The Soviet Union and the United States jointly hosted the Olympic Games.

   "For the unity and peace of the world, it can only be like this, otherwise the people of the world will see a divided world." President Samaranch, who sniffed out and eradicated traitors silently, persuaded the National Olympic Committees to focus on the overall situation.
