    "President Qusay, we station troops in Israel to maintain stability there. Your country has no territorial border with Israel, so our troops stationed there should have nothing to do with your country, right?" the Secretary of State who followed Clinton.  Christopher said.

    We don¡¯t have troops stationed in Iraq, so what does this have to do with you!  Although the United States is short of money, there is no need to give up its interests in Israel just because the Arabs say they want to lend the United States money, right?

    Hearing this, Kusai knew that it was probably a good thing that these Americans did not give him a few harsher words.

    "My American friends," Qusay said: "Our Arab world is a united world. We cannot watch our Palestinian brothers suffer. Israel has repeatedly invaded and occupied the territory of our Palestinian brothers. They can be so powerful and so arrogant.  , is inseparable from your country¡¯s support. Your country¡¯s stationing of troops in Israel will seriously harm the interests of our Arab countries, and this is also the main contradiction between our Arab world and your country.¡±

    Qusay¡¯s words made Americans look serious. Qusay pointed out that Americans are Israel¡¯s accomplices behind the scenes. It is precisely because of the United States that Israel can be so arrogant. This is absolutely unacceptable to Americans.

    "We in the United States also support your friendly country and the Palestinian people in pursuing their legitimate rights and interests. For example, in last year's war, we in the United States did not use our own troops to participate in the battle. Isn't this enough?  Explain our support for the Arab world?" Christopher said.

    That¡¯s because you didn¡¯t have the ability at that time!  If now, there are three divisions.  Under the command of Bush, it has already started to move.  Qusay thought in his mind.  But he said: "Yes, you did not take action last time, so it is meaningless for that army to be stationed on the land of Israel. All materials there have to be transported there, even oil supplies.  It also has to be transported by sea. Hell is so small that there is not even a place for target shooting. We might as well be stationed in Germany or your country¡¯s territory!¡±

    Qusay¡¯s point out like this naturally has profound meaning for the United States.  Stationing troops in Israel is not a good option. All logistical supplies have to be transported. For the Clinton administration, which is now gradually cutting military expenditures and reducing overseas troops stationed.  The Israeli military garrison is indeed a liability.  Moreover, such a garrison would be deprived of logistical supplies by Iraq at any time in the event of a real war and would be unable to move.

    The United States probably hates Clinton to the core.  In the federal government before 1991, the defense spending department accounted for more than 25% of that year's fiscal budget.  Clinton has been sparing no effort to reduce, and in the 1999 fiscal budget, defense spending only accounted for 14.6%.

    "Furthermore, we don't know that the funds we use to purchase U.S. Treasury bonds will be used to invest in your country's military in Israel?" Qusay still had a smile on his face, but his words were able to  Killing.  Obviously, if the United States does not agree to withdraw its troops, then all the conditions promised before will be empty talk.

    Iraq offered the killer weapon of buying U.S. Treasury bonds. To be honest, Clinton was still very interested, but garrisoning troops from Israel was something he could never agree to. While he was thinking about how to respond, he heard Hillary next to him.  Said: "Our current foreign policy in the United States has undergone great changes. For example, towards China, we have changed our original hostile attitude and proposed a policy of comprehensive engagement. A strong, stable, modernizing and prosperous China  In line with the long-term interests of the United States, we hope to develop a comprehensive relationship with China to eliminate differences between the two sides in a broader strategic context. These words are the same for your country and the entire Arab world. Now, the Arab  The world is undergoing tremendous changes. An Arab world that is united, stable, industrialized, and full of vitality is in line with our long-term interests. We are willing to develop a comprehensive partnership with the entire Arab world represented by your country in finance and other aspects.  relations. However, our differences still exist. For example, regarding the issue of the garrison you raised, we can put this issue aside for the time being, put aside the dispute, and look forward together. As the relationship between us gradually improves,  These disputes can eventually be satisfactorily resolved through subsequent negotiations."

    Hillary¡¯s words are very clever. Put aside the dispute and resolve it later. Now we are here to discuss cooperation with each other, not to quarrel. Wouldn¡¯t it be better if we leave this matter to be mentioned later?

    At this time, Hillary has shown a certain degree of diplomatic ability. However, Clinton knew that it was obviously impossible to get the young leader in front of him to agree, and there was still something missing.

    After Hillary finished speaking, Clinton immediately added: "Indeed, weNow, cooperation between the two sides is even more important. We can gradually resolve these issues in the future. Moreover, in order to show our sincerity, we in the United States can now recognize the State of Palestine and restore the status of the State of Palestine in the United Nations.  The rest of our disputes are put aside for now.  "

    The State of Palestine has been established, but so far it has not been recognized by the United States and other countries. Within the United Nations, the United States is still boycotting the State of Palestine, and their legitimate rights and interests have not been restored.

    Now, Clinton has proposed recognizing the Palestinian state, which is also a manifestation of following the trend of history. Regardless of whether they agree or not, the Palestinian state has officially stood there. Moreover, if you want to maintain peace in this region, then soften the relationship between the two parties.  The contradiction is also very important. The recognition of the Palestinian state by the United States can be regarded as an explanation to the Arab world.  Secondly, regardless of whether the United States recognizes it or not, it will not be difficult for third world countries to bring the Palestinian state into the United Nations because of their strong voice in the United Nations.

    "Clinton was able to become the president of the United States because he definitely had enough diplomatic skills. This adaptability and careful consideration were a successful diplomatic action.

    Clinton's proposal also made Qusay think carefully in his heart. He just proposed that Americans should get out of Israel. It was just a bomb. If the Americans could agree, the earth would be turned upside down. Therefore, saying that  , just as a cost for further bargaining. Now that the American has taken the initiative to lower his profile, should he just give up?

    Of course it¡¯s not enough!  I still need some more capital.

    "Set aside the dispute?" Qusay said thoughtfully: "In other words, your country's troops stationed in Israel will never withdraw?"

    Qusay asked this, and the temperature in the venue suddenly dropped a few degrees. If he said this, it is very likely that the President of the United States would come excitedly, and finally leave in a hurry, completely froze the relationship between the United States and the Middle East.

    "Yes, this is our basic foreign policy of the United States and cannot be changed." Clinton said.

    After hearing this, Kusai said: "Okay, then I agree, we can put aside the dispute on this matter, but we still have a condition."

    Hearing the translated words, a smile appeared on the American's face again. Since Qusay has agreed, then, the core issue, even if it has passed, what are the conditions?  As long as it's not too much, you can agree to it.

    "What conditions?" Clinton asked.

    "Your country's garrison, based on the current limit, cannot add even one more civilian personnel." Qusay said: "Otherwise, if you mobilize an armored division within a few months as you do now, then we will  Iraq had no choice but to keep mobilizing its domestic armored divisions until even our capital, Baghdad, could not leave any decent troops."

    Although the first half of the sentence is still a bit offensive to Americans, why do you want to interfere with the mobilization of our own troops?  But the second half of the sentence revealed Kusai's intention. Now, although the relationship between the two parties has eased, they are still hostile to each other. If the United States mobilizes the entire Seventh Army, then,  Iraq has no other option but to continue mobilizing its troops. This will actually be of no benefit to both parties.  Iraq's troops are not as large as those of the United States. If they are all mobilized, their own domestic troops will be empty. For the United States, mobilizing too many troops and logistical supplies will indeed put a heavy burden on them, which is to transport two armored divisions.  The fuel required to operate the M1 tank is enough for them to feel distressed. Now the US government has to significantly reduce military expenditures, and money can no longer be spent casually as before.

    The correct foreign policy is to find a meeting point between the two sides. The final result of the bickering in the Palace of the Republic made both sides very satisfied.

    Clinton's trip to the Middle East went very smoothly. Under his promotion, the relationship between the Arab world and the United States, which had been damaged during the Bush period, began to ease again. The two sides have launched extensive cooperation in the economic field. The US dollar  The oil system still exists firmly, and the cornerstone supporting the U.S. economy has not collapsed.

    For Iraq, it is completely in line with their interests to continue to maintain good relations with the United States. The advanced military technology of the United States can no longer be imported. However, it is still a point of convergence for civilian use. In this regard, Iraq  Since they have been able to produce a variety of products, they are no longer purely importing, but exporting a large number of industrial and agricultural manufactured goods.
