Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Pu Ding was obviously satisfied with Wang Ye's plan on how to carry out diplomacy.

He smiled and said:

“It seems that you are the right choice to serve as the head of the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee.

Koloff has been on the job for several years, and his work performance can only be described as mediocre!

It’s better for you young people, who are more passionate about work, have a broad vision, and have international thinking.

In the future, our government needs to try to make officials younger as much as possible, so that the country can develop faster and better..."

After saying some words of praise for Wang Ye, he changed the topic and asked Wang Ye again: "Carrying out foreign affairs is a systematic work, and it certainly cannot be done by your Duma alone. It is best to have the Duma, the government, and Kremlin The three sides of the palace have formed a fixed working group to systematically plan the country’s foreign affairs! In this way, our foreign affairs can have coherence and unity, and we will not have several external voices like some European and American countries.”

Of course Wang Ye understands what he said.

Because of the power structure, in some Western countries, the parliament and the government do their own thing. Even in terms of foreign relations, the government has one attitude, while the parliament has another attitude.

To give a simple example, if the Kremlin and the government adopt a supportive attitude toward the Ermao, they announce various preferential policies for the Ermao.

However, the Duma did not recognize it. Instead, it introduced various laws and regulations to restrict the 20 cents and vetoed the preferential policies provided by the government.

Then Er Mao is about to get confused. Is Da Mao good or bad to me? Should my next step be close to Da Mao or stay away from Da Mao...

This is caused by the chaos in foreign affairs!

Puding's proposal is to avoid this situation.

Now, he is still facing various challenges and competitors in the domestic political arena, and he is far from being able to "keep his promise"!

Especially with the sudden rise of Wang Ye in the Duma and the fact that he is also deliberately cultivating Wang Ye, he will naturally not use some means to deprive the Duma of the corresponding power.

He even wanted to give Wang Ye more power, so he made this suggestion!

…………

Wang Ye's heart moved, and he followed the trend and said: "This is indeed good! The three parties are linked together, so that a unified voice can be formed within the working group. In external affairs, all departments will be in step with each other, and the efficiency will be higher and the effect will be better."

Gorbrev also joined in the fun and said: "We can't call it a working group. That would be too low-level. Otherwise, call it... the State Foreign Affairs Committee! It is included in the list of national institutions, and its members are composed of the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee, the Kremlin Foreign Affairs Office and the government. It is jointly composed of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Misha will serve as the director of this committee, and representatives of the Kremlin and the government’s foreign minister will serve as deputy leaders.”

Needless to say, after adding the prefix "国", this organization looks taller and more prestigious.

In fact, Wang Ye doesn't care what it is called. What he cares about is that after the establishment of this committee, its power will naturally be much greater than that of the Foreign Affairs Committee within the Duma!

In the past, the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee was only responsible for reviewing and drafting corresponding diplomatic regulations, and basically did not have the power to communicate directly with the outside world, because that was the responsibility of the diplomatic department.

But now that the so-called "National Foreign Affairs Committee" has been established, its power will be unlimited!

It can be said that it directly represents the country’s foreign attitude...

After serving as the director of this committee, some of Wang Ye's plans can be implemented smoothly.

Puding thought for a moment and nodded: "That's okay! In the next period of time, I will also need to concentrate on campaigning, so Misha can only take more responsibility for foreign affairs. Especially those things you mentioned. Relations with neighboring countries need to be dealt with as soon as possible, the sooner the better! On the Kremlin side, let Gorbrev be the representative. He is mature and prudent in his work, which just complements young people like you, Misha."

His proposal to let Gorbrev join the State Foreign Affairs Committee did not go beyond Wang Ye's expectations.

After all, this committee also needs to "implement" some general external ideas, and it is impossible to let Wang Ye make the decision entirely.

Gebrev is his representative, who can convey his thoughts and keep an eye on Wang Ye to prevent him from messing around...

But generally speaking, Pu Ding's trust in Wang Ye has definitely increased significantly!

Even such an important position was handed over to Wang Ye without hesitation. Diplomacy is an important weapon of the country. In the past, he would not let others get involved.

Perhaps this is one of the invisible "benefits" brought about by Wang Ye and Rosiana's engagement.

In the past, Puding might not have so much trust in Wang Ye.

But now it's completely different. Speaking of it, Wang Ye and he are related, so he can confidently and boldly delegate power to Wang Ye for some things.

Wang Ye naturally did his part. Even if Gebrev had not asked him to take this position, Wang Ye would have fought for it himself.

Otherwise, he would rather not participate in this so-called committee.

If you want him to join in and cooperate, you must let him take the lead!

He smiled and nodded and said: "I have no problem. After the committee is established, I will start to arrange the next step of the work. The first thing is to visit the surrounding countries, contact them, and find out what they think of us. , and then formulate targeted diplomatic strategies.”

"Well, then tomorrow I will ask the office to draft a document and send it to the Duma for discussion and approval." Pu Ding said without hesitation.

In just a few words, a major national event was decided, which would even affect the future destiny of several surrounding countries!

This is where the charm of power becomes more addictive...

…………

On the third day after the Kremlin dinner, a plan titled "Proposed Establishment of a State Foreign Affairs Committee" was sent to the Duma.

Obviously, this was the result of Wang Ye's conversation with Puding that night.

The content of the plan is exactly the same as what the two people discussed.

The Kremlin proposed that in order to cope with the increasingly complex international environment, it is necessary to establish a department dedicated to foreign relations to be responsible for collecting, researching, and making decisions on the country's overall diplomatic policy and affairs!

It is composed of the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee, the Kremlin Foreign Affairs Office, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!

Chairman of the Committee Mikhail.

Deputy Director, Gorbrev and Foreign Minister Rakov!

After the committee is established, all departments and agencies must follow the guidelines and plans specified by the committee when it comes to foreign relations...

When he saw this plan, Gryzlov's expression changed.

It's not that this plan hindered him, but he was shocked by the Kremlin's trust in Mikhail!

This is almost equivalent to the Kremlin giving part of his power to Mikhail...

It also means that after the foreign affairs committee of this country is established, Wang Ye will be the one who can make the final decision on foreign affairs!

In any country, this is basically the power that only the person in the highest position can have...

To be honest, he couldn't believe it.

But the plan was placed in front of him, and he couldn't help but not believe it.

After much hesitation, Gryzlov took the plan and went to Wang Ye's office, wanting to explore Wang Ye's tone.

…………

"Mikhail, you should have received this, right? This is..." Patting the plan in his hand, Gryzlov asked tentatively.

Before the meeting, this plan will definitely be sent to several speakers for them to take a look first.

In addition, Wang Ye is the director of the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee, so he will definitely receive it.

What Gryzlov asked was whether Wang Ye knew about this in advance!

Wang Ye also knew what Gryzlov meant by coming, so he smiled slightly and responded: "Well, I have discussed this matter with Mr. Puding, and it is my opinion."

Grezlov felt inexplicably a little disappointed.

After all, he is also the official speaker and the leader of the first faction!

As a result, now, whether in the eyes of many members of the Duma or in the eyes of the Kremlin, I am no longer as important as Mikhail...

After all, he is a veteran in politics. Although Gryzlov felt disappointed, his face remained calm and he said with a smile: "Congratulations. After the establishment of this committee, you will be very busy."

Wang Ye shook his head and said helplessly: "Hey, there is no way. In fact, I don't want to. But who made me the director of the Duma Foreign Affairs Committee, and I want to help our country improve the international environment, so I can only force myself. Go do something with your scalp.”

Seeing how Wang Ye was taking advantage of him and acting like a good boy, Gryzlov wanted to tell him that if he didn't want to be the committee director, then he wouldn't mind working hard for him!

Of course, this must not be said...

After holding it in for a long time, he squeezed out a sentence, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, you are the most suitable for this position. After all, the focus of our country's diplomacy is still within Europe, so your identity gives you a natural advantage!"

It seems that Gryzlov is not stupid. He has finally figured out why Wang Ye can sit in such a powerful position.

In addition to the fact that Wang Ye himself has a good reputation and his performance in the past few years has been noticed by the Kremlin, his "messy" relationship also played a big role.

Not to mention anything else, just being the "husband of the Romanov Grand Duchess" can make Wang Ye related to the royal families of many European countries.

Don't feel like this relationship is like a "joke". At certain critical moments, it can really work!

…………

Bringing this matter to the Duma for discussion is just a formality, because no one will object.

There are four speakers in total, and it is certainly impossible for Gryzlov to object, because this is something brought out by the Kremlin.

It is even more impossible for Wang Ye to object, this is the idea he proposed.

Zhirinov will not object. This matter has nothing to do with him but is beneficial to the Wang industry...

The only one who might object is Koloff's faction.

It is a pity that their faction was defeated miserably in the new Duma election. With only a few seats, it is impossible for them to make any waves on their own.

Therefore, the plan was successfully passed at the Duma Congress, with 450 votes, 432 in favor, 15 abstentions, and only three members opposed.

After the plan was approved, Gebrev immediately took action and worked very efficiently.

It only took three days to complete the entire process of establishing the organization, and even found an office!

Because it is an independent organization with a very high level and involves cross-departmental cooperation, the office is located in the Kremlin Palace.

Gorbrev found a small building by himself and put up a big sign of "State Foreign Affairs Committee"!

As the director of the committee, Wang Ye also has his own office in the Kremlin Palace...

…………

At the first meeting after the establishment of the State Foreign Affairs Committee, only three people attended.

That is, Director Mikhail, Deputy Director Gorbrev and Minister of Foreign Affairs.

The current Minister of Foreign Affairs is named Rakov. He is in his early fifties, about the same age as Gorbrev.

He has a slightly fat figure, a rosy face, and light blond curly hair. He looks kind-hearted and has a good temper.

Wang Ye had not had much dealings with him before, but after hearing an introduction from Gurbrev, he said that Raklov was a good person and had a good reputation.

However, Wang Ye doesn't really care about what Rakloff does, because in this committee, it's not Rakloff's turn to point fingers.

For anything, as long as he can reach an agreement with the Kremlin, Raklov only needs to implement it.

After the three met, the first thing they discussed was the eastward expansion of North Y that happened last month!

Although the Kremlin and the foreign affairs department have already lodged protests, it is just an attitude and there is no real substantive action.

What Wang Ye wants to discuss now is how to make substantive responses.

He repeated the plan he had proposed while having dinner at the Kremlin Palace, and finally said decisively:

“This is the most direct and effective response we can take!

It is impossible for us to really go to war with North Korea or those countries because of this incident, and it is also impossible to pretend that it did not happen.

Therefore, deploying strategic weapons in Kaliningrad will make all countries involved understand our attitude and determination, and there is no need to say anything more. "

I mention it again because this is a formal meeting of the State Foreign Affairs Council.

Represents the "official" opinion!

Once a decision is made at this meeting, the process will go directly, and even the Kremlin will not be able to stop it.

Obviously, Gorbrev is still a little hesitant. It is estimated that the Kremlin has not yet made a final decision on this matter.

On the contrary, Raklov's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed:

“I think Director Mikhail’s response is very appropriate!

It not only warns the other party and lets them understand our determination and bottom line, but also prevents conflict from escalating.

If you want to ease the relationship later, it will be very convenient. You just need to withdraw strategic weapons.

Of course, if they want us to withdraw, they must also show enough sincerity. "

Wang Ye was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Raklov could draw inferences from one instance and guess something he didn't say clearly...
