Chapter 742 Open the Door

It's time to open the door! Now, because of the high oil prices, the economy of the entire West is quite depressed. At the same time, because of the low oil prices, the countries in the Eastern world have stable political situation. Moreover, in the past few years, since Andropov came to power, the drastic reforms have made a great improvement in the entire Soviet Union. Materials are no longer scarce. Food production can not only meet its own needs, but also be exported to other countries. In terms of the stability of people's lives, the Soviet Union is better than Western Europe!

This is not due to the national system, but purely due to the impact of oil. The Soviet Union was originally an oil-producing country and could withstand such an impact. Moreover, the Soviet Union also controlled the oil in the Middle East and was not afraid of an oil war. The Western world, on the other hand, is facing an economic crisis at a time when oil prices are soaring.

Reagan played the sympathy card, accusing the Soviet Union of all kinds of heinous behavior, letting the people of Western Europe know that without the United States, they would live a more miserable life. Now, the United States will support Germany! Germany must rely on the United States to survive!

How can we launch a powerful counterattack? How can we slap Reagan in the face? Of course, open the door!

This is not the opening of 1988 in later generations. At that time, because of Gorbachev's political movement, the whole Soviet Union was filled with an impetuous atmosphere. They longed for democracy, freedom, and the disappearance of their country. Under the instigation of the West, the Soviet Union's political situation was unstable. Later, with the rise of conspirators such as Yeltsin, it finally led to the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

When the Soviet Union just collapsed, they were still cheering and cheering for the democracy and freedom they had achieved, but what happened afterwards? In the Soviet era, prices were stable, the ruble was strong, and the exchange rate between the ruble and the US dollar remained unchanged. However, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the ruble plunged sharply, and the wealth of many people evaporated overnight! Most people became poor, and only a few people became vested interests.

At that time, they began to miss the benefits of the Soviet Union, but unfortunately, there was no turning back.

Under Andropov's governance, the Soviet Union could not be instigated by the Western world, and the political situation was stable. At the same time, the deepening reforms gave the Soviet Union new vitality. Of course, under normal circumstances, it would take at least five or six years, or even ten years, to catch up with the West. After all, the old capitalist countries also have a solid foundation. However, the current oil prices have made the capitalist world wail. They are used to over-consumption. When companies go bankrupt due to high oil prices, ordinary people will suffer.

Therefore, Andre is confident that when people in West Germany see the development of East Germany, they will definitely be envious. When they see the stable political situation and the stable lives of the people here, they will definitely choose to stay in East Germany!

Reagan, you have completely miscalculated this time!

"Andrei, do you mean that we should tear down the Berlin Wall?" Andropov asked.

"Of course not." Andre said, "If we tear down the Berlin Wall, those crazy people from the Middle East will definitely swarm into every corner here like flies. We are not trying to tear down the Berlin Wall, but to open that door. Didn't Reagan want us to open the door? Why don't we just open the roadblock opposite the Brandenburg Gate and let people from East and West Germany pass freely. However, only people from the two Germanys can pass through, and they cannot drive vehicles, but can only pass on foot."

Andre's words stunned everyone. They couldn't figure out what Andre's additional conditions were. Andre continued, "Those refugees are left for the Western world. We don't welcome them to mess up our society. As for vehicles, if we can allow them to pass, West Germans will definitely line up in long lines to refuel here, which will seriously disrupt our normal order."

Andre had been planning since the beginning of the Iran War, and last year's Middle East War had created a large number of Middle Eastern refugees. Now, there are millions of MSLs living in the Western world! The influx of these people has worsened Western public security and reduced welfare, and Westerners are quite dissatisfied with these Middle Eastern people.

The existence of these people is to disrupt the Western world! Relying on the underground oil, they can become rich without working. The thinking of such people is very strange. For example, when they come to the Western world, they think they should have the same rights as they are also people of that land. After the qiangbao drama, the Western European world is extremely hostile to these MSLs. Isn't it better for them to sit here and watch with a small stool?

Only people from the two German states were allowed to pass through, and Middle Eastern refugees were absolutely not allowed to pass through. Anyway, it was the United States that generously accepted the refugees. The Soviet Union never said that if they dared to come, the Soviet Union would definitely take them to the mining area in the Ural Mountains to work as miners, with a few pieces of bread a day, just like the black foremen of later generations. Want to receive relief without doing anything? The Soviet Union is not their real god!

As for Andrei's next words, they made everyone present laugh. The Soviet Union had recently begun to severely crack down on oil smuggling cases. With Andropov, the head of the KGB, as the general secretary, the KGB agencies across the country were the most capable and competent. After several oil smuggling cases were seized, no matter which country the people were from, they were all sentenced to life imprisonment. No one dared to do this anymore.

When the West Germans come over and see how cheap the fuel is, will they be so envious that they vomit blood? Yes, they must not be allowed to drive through, otherwise, it would be justified to refuel the car that has run out of gas in East Germany!

"Finally, I suggest that we turn the street across from the Brandenburg Gate into an electronics street, selling electronic products made in the Soviet Union and the island countries, such as personal computers and game consoles. The prices should be cheaper than those sold by the West Germans across the street, and the functions should be more complete!"

If the Soviet Union was weak in electronic technology in the past, they would never be so tough. But now, the Soviet Union's electronic technology is definitely not worse than that of the West. Let the West Germans envy them! Under the propaganda of the United States, the Soviet Union's technology is very backward and still uses electron tubes! Let them know that the Soviet Union has led the trend of world electronic technology! This is also one aspect of the Soviet Union's industrial victory over the United States!
