King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

Chapter 947: Chapter 851: Let’s Sit Down and Talk

France’s sudden intervention led to a deadlock in negotiations between the Syrian Government and the Kurds.

The Syrian Government, though controlled by Russia, still has its basic autonomy.

Russia wants regional influence and interests in resources such as oil and natural gas; to legitimize everything they gain, they need to support and respect the Syrian Government.

On the other hand, despite their apparent enthusiasm, the Kurds have no autonomy to speak of.

Joe Ga wasn’t disappointed by this; in fact, he took the French intervention as an opportunity.

Joe Ga’s base has always been in Africa!

The French have yet to clean up their mess in Mali, and now they dare to meddle in Syria, which is really… a “godsend”.

Sending only 400 people is hardly enough. Joe Ga feels that France, as a major power wanting to showcase its strength, should send three to five thousand troops over.

It wouldn’t take too long; just one or two years could bring financial strain to France’s economy.

It’s not to look down on the French; it’s just a reality that they can’t engage in dual-front warfare.

The more they invest in Syria, the more they’ll have to relax their control over Africa.

Then, to maintain their influence in Africa, P·B will become a crucial entity they must vie for.

However, European and American politicians are somewhat utilitarian and won’t consider too far into the future.

Convincing the French to agree to Kurdish-Syrian Government peace talks at this stage is simply a fantasy.
