Chapter 3043: Public opinion

"I have an idea, this incident will not lead to a complete failure of the joint anti-terrorism operation?" Sergey said on the ground. "Our company is betting everything on this operation. Once the anti-terrorist alliance is dissolved, we will suffer heavy losses."
"Don't worry, your worry will never come up." Lin Rui shook his head. "Because the secret agency also doesn't want the anti-terrorist alliance to end, they just want to force the United States and France to be restrained, and the six anti-terrorist countries are full of internal conflicts. This is the time for them to stand up."
"Yes, the Americans and the French may be forced by public opinion to temporarily terminate their military operations. They can only renew their previous slogans and use African countries as the protagonist of African counter-terrorism affairs. Oulu under the control of the secret agency The Mi Federation will completely rise in Africa and become the protagonist of this joint anti-terrorism." Crazy Horse whispered.
"I don't know what happened to Silver Wolf?" Sergey said with some worry.
"We'd better go over and take a look. After this incident, our overall strategy may have to be adjusted according to the US military's countermeasures." Lin Rui nodded and said, "Crazy Horse, Sergey, you are with me. In the past. The others stay here on standby."
Crazy Horse and Sergey followed Lin Rui to the joint force headquarters and found Silver Wolf.
Silver Wolf was sitting in the office looking at the computer screen, and when he saw them coming in, he motioned for them to sit down.
A spokesperson for the US military is holding a press conference on the attack on civilians. Under the aggressive questioning of countries remembering, the US military spokesperson has changed his previous attitude, claiming that this is a very regrettable tragic accident.
"Yes, it was caused by intelligence and technical reasons. Both myself and the military expressed great regret about this tragedy." A US military spokesperson said from the podium.
"But at the previous press conference, you once denied that this was a massacre. You once said that this was deliberate slander and slander by a terrorist organization." A reporter stood up and asked.
"This is really not a massacre. Fully armed soldiers and fighters will not kill African civilians. Our action this time is to support the six anti-terrorist countries and are fighting African terrorist organizations. I have already said that. , This is a tragic accident." The US military spokesperson responded.
"So, does the US military admit that what we saw in the video is the fact that happened in Barryman Village?" the reporter asked.
"This is currently under investigation and confirmation. The specific details will be announced at an appropriate time in the future." The US military spokesman said conservatively.
"Mr. Colonel, I am an Associated Press reporter. We would like to reconfirm whether the specific casualties caused by this attack are as announced in this video. Moreover, I want to know what kind of situation the elementary school that was hit by the airstrike is currently in. Status." Another reporter got up and asked.
"I have no comment on this point. The next question." The US military spokesman's face was a little unpleasant.
"It is reported that the U.S. military used cluster bombs during this operation. Is this true? In addition, the U.S. military used cluster bombs in densely populated areas such as civilian villages. What are the considerations? Is there any concern for people in Africa? Racial prejudice, thinking that they are all terrorists or other inferior nations." Another reporter's question was even more unfriendly than the previous one.
"No comment. But I can be very responsible to say that the U.S. military does not have any racial prejudice. Our former president is also a black person." The U.S. military spokesperson said something wrong and changed his words, "I mean. He is also a person of color with Kenyan descent."
"The last question, after the press conference, will your military review our press releases and photos?" another reporter asked.
"There is absolutely no such thing. We have always advocated freedom of news and public opinion. We do not have any mandatory review system." A US military spokesperson immediately clarified.
"Then why did some of the videos and live photos we recorded and broadcast were confiscated when we entered the venue? Will the US military want to cover up some of the facts out of self-interest?" the reporter cunningly said.
"That's because of the need for security checks. When you are over, those will be returned to you." Even the experienced US military spokesperson felt a little embarrassed by this question.
It was not easy to wait until the press conference was over before Silver Wolf turned off the computer screen and whispered, "The situation is not optimistic."
"What's the matter? The Yankee can't pass this hurdle?" Lin Rui frowned.
"In the United States, if you offend anyone, don't offend the news media. Their verbal criticism can make the president disgraced and his image plummeted. International public opinion is even stronger. What's more, this matter is still dominated by behind the scenes. The United States and France are at a loss. In the first, and afterwards, the attitude was veiled again. Coupled with the backlash of public opinion in the six African anti-terrorist countries, I am afraid that the Yankees are going to suffer this time.
They were not ready to fight a war on terrorism in this Africa. That's why it dragged the six African countries to work with them. As soon as the incident happened this time, the Yankee might not be able to survive. "Silver Wolf mocked.
"I think they must be regretting this. We didn't let us do it. Otherwise, we wouldn't even be able to find a scapegoat. In the past, the massacres of civilians were not all blamed on private military companies, but they were left alone. Does it matter?" Lin Rui also smiled.
Silver Wolf was silent for a while and said, "Forget it, no matter how long this matter will continue to ferment, what kind of impact it will have. But from the current point of view, the Americans and French will definitely be more cautious about dispatching after this incident. We have our own troops. Therefore, the joint anti-terrorism issue in Africa will really fall on the six African countries."
"Not only that. After these videos are broadcast, the six African anti-terrorism countries will more or less encounter domestic pressure. I am afraid that ordinary people will never want to see their governments follow the Yankees and wave their flags. Anti-terrorism six countries I have to take care of domestic emotions, and I won't be so desperate." Lin Rui frowned.
"There is only one country that has no influence at all. That is the Olumi Federation under the high pressure of the secret society. They will be the most staunch supporters of this anti-terrorism operation, at least on the surface. Their attitude will be beautiful. France is affirmed by the two countries, and has gradually become the most eye-catching existence among the six anti-terrorist countries." Silver Wolf said in a low voice, "The secret society plan is also true. They are getting closer to their goals step by step."
