Chapter 633 Help Kuwait
But when I took my heart back, I thought that Pakistan had a greater strategic goal with this opportunity. Mhamad knew that it was probably impossible for Pakistan to help Kuwait restore its country.
Moreover, the Iraqi army has experienced many battles. If it fights a cruel street battle with Iraq, the losses will not be something that it can bear. Although Kuwait will pay the full pension, those who die will not be able to survive. Let the soldiers participate in that kind of cruel battle, and it is purely for making money. Mhamad cannot make such a decision.
Although there were mercenaries in Africa before, they only used monster hunting and fighting experience. They almost never fought a real tough battle.
This cannot be done now.
Thinking of this, Mhamad said: "His Excellency Jabir, the Iraqis have launched a war of aggression and invaded Kuwait. We peace-loving countries will never watch Kuwait be invaded. Now, we need to contact other countries to discuss measures to confront each other."
When Jabir heard Mhamad's words, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes. When Mhamad said this, he naturally did not intend to preside over justice for Kuwait alone.
"Report, Prince Sultan comes down to visit." At this moment, the assistant came in and reported to Mhamad.
"Come him in quickly." Mhamad's face was full of urgency.
Prince Sultan is Saudi Arabia's defense minister and has close ties with Pakistan. Now, after hearing that Jabir was rescued, he came from Saudi Arabia to discuss countermeasures.
Prince Sultan walked in and saw Jabir who was a little depressed on the side. He reached out and hugged Jabir: "I am so happy to see you. I am really worried that you will be controlled by the beasts in Iraq. Fortunately, President Mhamad took action in time. At that time, we wanted to send helicopters, but the Iraqi fighter planes kept flying in the sky, blocking us tightly. As long as we fly over Kuwait, we will definitely be shot down by them."
"Yes, I'm so lucky to be able to come out, but..." Jabir was still depressed.
"Don't worry, we won't watch our brothers be bullied. We are here to discuss countermeasures this time." Prince Sultan said: "When I came, King Fahd had given me that no matter how much the price I paid, I would still help our Kuwait brothers."
Prince Sultan's words made Jabir's heart slowly let go. Now, he can only rely on Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.
"It is important for us to immediately counterattack the Iraqi army in Kuwait." At this moment, Mhamad said something that shocked both sides: "Our important task is to ensure Saudi security first."
To ensure Saudi Arabia's security? Prince Sultan was stunned: "President Mhamad, what do you mean is that Iraq will launch an attack on us Saudi Arabia?"
Mhamad nodded.
There was a silence in the scene, and Prince Sultan felt a little blank. Will Iraq attack Saudi Arabia? As the Minister of Defense, he didn't even have this feeling!
Indeed, Saddam was ambitious and very warlike, and he didn't care about the friendship between Arab brothers at all. Now, the invasion of Kuwait was so smooth. He took it down in one day, which would make Saddam's self-confidence expand.
Kuwait's crude oil reserves account for 10% of the world, while Saudi Arabia's crude oil reserves account for 25% of the world. Once Iraq's army marched straight into and captured Saudi Arabia, Iraq would control nearly half of the world's crude oil reserves. At that time, there would be enough trump cards to negotiate with the Western world, especially with the United States.
The worst thing is that although the Saudi army is more numerous, like Kuwait, it is ineffective.
"You must immediately increase your alert level, all ammunition is sent to grassroots companies, and be ready to fight at any time." Mhamad said: "You cannot make the same mistake as Kuwait."
Kuwait did not expect Iraq to really come, and the troops were full of training bullets and could not confront the Iraqi army at all.
"Yes, I need to remind His Majesty the King immediately." Prince Sultan said: "However, relying solely on our Saudi army, I am afraid that the attack of the Iraqi army cannot be stopped."
That is Iraq, which has experienced ten years of war! The military power is quite strong. Saudi Arabia, like Kuwait, raises noble soldiers who cannot endure hardships, such as Saudi tanks. Needless to mention other performance, it must first have high-power air conditioners.
Even if the Saudi army is ready to go, it cannot withstand the attack of the Iraqi army.
"We hope that your side can dispatch two armored divisions to help us resist the attack of the Iraqis." Prince Sultan said in a hurry.
Jabir had just asked to invite Pakistan to send troops, but Pakistan did not agree. Now, if Pakistan disagrees with Saudi Arabia's invitation, it would be really insincere.
So, Mhamad said: "In order to defend our Saudi friends, our Pakistani army is willing to fight bravely! We need a large number of ships to transport our army quickly."
"Okay, we will make arrangements overnight." Prince Sultan said: "With the armored power of Pakistan who has been through many battles, we will definitely be able to withstand Iraq's attack!"
"Your Highness, you should know that in addition to relying on our land armored forces, we should also play a role in the air." Mhamad said: "The ground has almost no counterattack ability when the air-to-ground strikes. This was how we defeated the Indian armored forces in this way."
"Yes!" Prince Sultan immediately woke up: "In addition to your army, we also hope that you can support some of our air force. Can you divide one or two air force wings?"
"It's totally OK," said Mhamad. "We are willing to fight alongside our Saudi friends."
Although Mhamad agreed and did not discuss any conditions, Mhamad also knew that with Saudi Arabia's conditions, he would never treat Pakistan unfairly. In the past, Saudi Arabia would not only provide various supplies, but also pay Pakistan a large amount of employment fees.
"Thank you so much to our Pakistani friends," said Prince Sultan: "We must first protect ourselves before we can help Kuwait restore its country."
Jabir never spoke. Although he really hoped that the Pakistani army could rush up the land of Kuwait and drive the Iraqis back, he knew that this was impossible. Pakistan is now the first step to help Saudi Arabia to prevent Iraqi invasion.
"To deter Iraq," Mhamad said: "Your country can also disclose its killer weapon and let Saddam know that if he really dares to invade Saudi Arabia, he will face a heavy blow."
Killer weapon! The strategic weapons that Saudi Arabia imported to guard against Iran now should work! Prince Sultan nodded: "Thank you President Mhamad for reminding me."
"His Highness Prince Sultan, in addition to discussing these military operations, I think we should help the Kuwait brothers and establish an interim government," continued Mhamad.
Provisional Government! The entire Kuwait was invaded by Iraq. Generally speaking, the demise of the capital represents the demise of a country. However, for the Sabakh family who are unwilling to destroy the country, they must regain their land and restore their rule. Then, they must now form a provisional government. With the agency of the Provisional Government, they can discuss with other countries, such as coordination with the United States and other Western countries.
During World War II, France fell, and Charles de Gaulle formed a provisional government in Britain, continued to resist the rule of German fascism, and finally restored the country.
Historically, Kuwait's Emir and other royal members have all gone into exile to Saudi Arabia to form a temporary government. Now, they have come to Pakistan. Moreover, when Saudi Arabia is facing a blow from Iraq at any time, it seems that the best choice is to establish a temporary government in Pakistan.
"Yes, Lord Jabir, we Saudi Arabia and other brothers will help Kuwait! You will first form a new government in Pakistan." Prince Sultan said to Jabir.
Jabir nodded, and now he could only do this. He first built up the temporary government's stall and called on the Kuwaiti people to resist the Iraqi invasion, and at the same time he tried various opportunities to restore the country.
Prince Sultan ended his trip to Pakistan and hurried back to Saudi Arabia overnight. Now, Saudi Arabia has too many things to do, the first thing is to guard against Iraqi invasion!
Jabir, who stayed in Pakistan, began to contact other royal members and officials at all levels who escaped from Kuwait to form a new government. They were in a low mood, but they still had firm beliefs. No matter how much the price they paid, they must restore their country!
On the other side of the ocean, when Bush learned of the mutation that occurred here, his eyes were full of excitement.
Just as Clinton, who failed the campaign, criticized Bush Sr., Bush was not good at dealing with economic issues and liked to deal with international disputes the most!
In fact, the relationship between the United States and Iraq was not friendly at the beginning, and even characterized Iraq as an evil country like Iran. The main reason was that Iraq's tendency was to the Soviet Union, Iraq's military equipment, Soviet goods, and even the Soviet Union had tens of thousands of military advisers in Iraq's army.
It was because Iraq and Iran started to move policies and support Iraq at the beginning because of the war between Iraq and Iran. After all, Iran is hated by every American, and helping Iraq fight Iran is what everyone hopes to do.
