Chapter 669

"To defend Georgia, oppose the independence of Abkhazia and maintain the unity of Georgia..."

"Abkhazia is the inherent territory of Georgia. Whoever wants to split Georgia is the public enemy of the people of Georgia..."

……

In husumi, the capital of the Autonomous Prefecture of Abkhazia, the opposition led by Gamsa hurtiah suddenly declared a hunger strike to defend Georgia's sovereignty and territorial integrity with its own lives. The Soviet government had to cut off communications and postal services in husumi, and even satellite signals were blocked. The government of the Autonomous Prefecture of Abkhazia took over the radio and television stations in the state in an emergency. Half an hour after the incident, the only program that the residents of the Autonomous Prefecture of Abkhazia could watch was the government's circular warning statement.

But no matter how the news was blocked, the foreign media stationed in the Soviet Union still knew about it. But now Georgia has banned foreigners. Gamsakhurdia's name spread throughout Georgia overnight. Originally, the issue of the ownership of Abkhazia was just the administrative division within the Soviet Union, but gamsahurdia raised it to the ethnic issue between Georgia and other ethnic groups. Many young Georgians were coerced in consciously or unconsciously because of the provocation of this issue.

As a matter of fact, the Soviet government did nothing wrong in this matter. Originally, Abkhazia was the inherent land of the Abkhaz people, but after the founding of the Soviet Union, because of management problems, it was assigned to Georgia. Because of its proximity to the Black Sea, Abkhazia has gradually flourished, followed by the rising population ratio of the ethnic Georgians, which has gradually become the mainstream ethnic group in Abkhazia.

Because of the xenophobic nature of the Georgians, there have been conflicts between the Abkhaz and the Georgians for decades. The people of Abkhazia are eager to join the Soviet Union or the Russian Republic, but this voice is regarded as a betrayal of Georgia. Instead of advocating how to resolve the contradictions between the two ethnic groups, the opposition of Georgia took the opportunity to make trouble. On the contrary, it intensified its persecution of the people of Abkhazia. As a result, there was a serious ethnic antagonism between the Georgians, the Abkhaz and the Russians in Abkhazia.

The opposition in Georgia wants the territory of Abkhazia, but it wants to drive the people out of this land. This kind of extreme nationalism is almost as good as that of Germany, but the birds that can sing have worms to eat. This performance of Gamsa hultia has won wide support in the world. If the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded to him, it will be a shame for the Nobel Committee.

The sudden hunger strike in gamsahurdia left the government of Georgia at a loss. Although Georgia's first secretary PADI ashvili resolutely prevented the further spread of the news, rumors have been flying all over the territory of the Republic of Georgia. A large number of Georgia's ultra nationalists who sympathized with the hunger strikers led by Gamsa hurtiah began to rush to Abkhazia in various ways. PADI ashvili hoped that the Central Committee of Georgia would agree to his proposal to blockade Abkhazia, but this proposal failed because of disunity and factional struggle within the Party committee of Georgia.

In desperation, Paji ashvili could only report the incident to the central government and ask for its decision. It's like kicking the ball back to Gorbachev. Gorbachev didn't know what to do with it. The Politburo had been meeting since Xie liaosha left, and there was no result until midnight. In fact, everyone knows that in this case, it's better to let the police and the military intervene to control the situation. But no one is willing to take the responsibility. Once you bear the bad name of military repression, it will definitely be a political stain that you will never be able to clean up in your life.

The politburo is in a meeting. After returning home, seryosha is also thinking about Georgia. Shailyusha originally just wanted to let the Georgia issue hold back ligachev's retreat. Let him and Shevardnadze into endless struggle, so as to relax the supervision of the Soviet foreign trade bank and the Ministry of foreign trade and economic cooperation. However, with the help of the Communist Youth League Pravda, he inadvertently incited the ultra nationalists in Georgia, which is not his original intention. Seliosha's Leningrad special economic zone has just begun to be established. If the situation in Georgia affects the construction of Leningrad Special Economic Zone, it will be a pity.

……

It wasn't just seliosha who was worried about the night. Shevardnadze, who was sitting on the special plane to Moscow, frowned and looked at the clouds in the dusk. Just an hour ago, Shevardnadze received a phone call from the Kremlin, from which he learned about what happened in Abkhazia today. Shevardnadze was also frightened at that time, so he ended his visit to Hungary and quickly got up to return home to deal with the issue of Georgia.

Sitting on the plane, Shevardnadze felt physically and mentally exhausted. He went to Hungary to determine the relationship between the Soviet Communist Party and the new leadership of the Hungarian Socialist Workers' party. Now the Socialist Workers' Party of Hungary is no longer under the leadership of Comrade Kadar. The newly elected general secretary, gross karoi, hopes to establish a new and equal relationship between the parties with the Soviet Communist Party, rather than the relationship that the Soviet Communist Party guided the Socialist Workers' Party of Hungary during the Kadar period. With this trend of thought, the Hungarian government and Austria bypassed the Soviet Union for dialogue on the border issue. The two countries agreed to open the border and allow limited free movement of people between the two countries, which is tantamount to tearing a hole in the iron curtain. However, this gap has solved the problem of material supply in Hungary. Western goods have begun to flood the Hungarian consumer market. People do not have to wait in long lines at the door of food stores. Looking at gross caroy's triumphant expression, Shevardnadze even wanted to knock him to the ground with one punch.

The Soviet Red Army stationed in Hungary has not yet withdrawn. If the general secretary of the party is Stalin, even any one of Khrushchev, Brezhnev, Andropov and Chernenko, gross karoy would have been taken to the execution ground for execution. But now the Soviet Red Army stationed in Hungary had to retreat in barracks and let Hungarian ideology slide to the West. What a pity!

Shevardnadze knew that Gorbachev would not agree with the Red Army to launch another October incident in Hungary (in 1956, the Soviet Union suppressed the Hungarian Reformers by force and shot Naji, then the first Secretary of the Hungarian working people's party. After the incident, Kadar came to power and the Hungarian working people's party changed its name to the Hungarian socialist working people's party). Gorbachev cherished his reputation too much. He did not have the courage of Khrushchev and other Soviet leaders, and did not dare to bear the reputation of military repression. However, when the country is in crisis, someone has to stand up. That person should have been the general secretary of the Soviet Communist Party, but he chose to shrink back when he should bear the responsibility. The last supreme ruler who did so has been decapitated. He is the last Czar Nicholas II.
