The other end of the video fell into a long silence again.

The new president closed his eyes, and two lines of painful tears slowly slid down his haggard cheeks.

He knew that Sullivan was right, and that this was their only way to avoid the complete collapse of the country.

Finally, in an almost inaudible voice, as if he had exhausted all his strength, he uttered the most difficult word in his life:

"……it is good."

After receiving authorization from the president, Sullivan returned to the negotiating table.

The previous humility and pleading were no longer on his face.

Instead, there was a calm and determined expression unique to professional diplomats.

In the next few hours, this small reception room in the Kremlin turned into a battle arena without the smoke of gunpowder, but more cruel and intense than any battlefield.

Sullivan, the future master of diplomacy, brought his lifelong wisdom and talent to the extreme.

Sometimes he spoke righteously and stuck to his bottom line, threatening the future of the entire Western world and telling Joseph the devastating consequences of provoking a full-scale war on both sides.

Sometimes he cited a lot of examples and explained to Joseph that a unified but weak Eagle Sauce was far more in line with the long-term strategic interests of the Bear than a North America that was divided and turned to the Dragon Country.

Sometimes he appealed to Joseph's emotions, and even lowered himself to paint a beautiful blueprint of "co-governance of the bear and the eagle, and coexistence of the East and the West" to satisfy the dictator's vanity and ambition deep in his heart.

Joseph also demonstrated his cunning and sophistication as a top politician.

Sometimes he is extremely tough and refuses to give in, using the chaotic situation in the United States to force the other side to submit. Sometimes he makes some insignificant concessions, creating the illusion that "negotiations are possible" and whetting the other side's appetite.

The two sides exchanged sharp words, and every clause and every wording went through dozens or even hundreds of rounds of bargaining.

For example, the statement about "acknowledging the failure of the system."

Joseph initially insisted that the term "complete failure" must be used.

Sullivan, however, firmly disagreed, believing that this would completely destroy the very foundation of the United States. The two sides remained deadlocked on this issue for nearly two hours.

In the end, Sullivan came up with a brilliant solution - using the language art of the Dragon Kingdom to solve the problem.

He suggested adding a sentence to the statement: "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. History has proved and will continue to prove..." This vague and flexible Eastern philosophical language not only satisfies Joseph's declaration of "victory", but also reserves a bit of face and future interpretation space for the Eagle Sauce.

For example, the issue of territorial cession.

Joseph's initial request was for the Mississippi River to be the boundary, but Sullivan pointed out that this would cause the Eagle Sauce to lose its most important agricultural and industrial heartland, which was absolutely unacceptable.

After fierce bargaining, the two sides finally agreed to use the Rocky Mountains as the boundary.

The US will cede the entire West Coast, including California, Oregon, and Washington State, to the US as its strategic base in the Pacific.

Texas, on the other hand, became an independent buffer zone "protected" by both the Bear and the Eagle.

Although this result is still humiliating, it at least preserves most of the core territory and population of the United States.

In this way, after round after round of extreme pulling and bargaining that almost drove people crazy,

Finally, as dawn was approaching in Moscow, a secret agreement that would completely change the course of world history was placed before both sides.

"The Moscow Secret Agreement on Establishing a New Type of Strategic Partnership and Jointly Addressing Global Challenges" - behind this long and high-sounding name lies one of the dirtiest and most shameless political deals in human history.

The core content of the agreement is refined into the following points:

The United States government officially acknowledged that the capitalist system it pursued had "encountered serious and systematic difficulties" in its peaceful competition with the Red Front system, and announced that it would "draw on and learn from" the "successful experience" of the Russian Federation in state governance.

The US will permanently "transfer" the sovereignty of its western territories (including but not limited to California, Oregon, and Washington) to the US with the Rocky Mountains as the boundary.

Texas serves as an "independent buffer zone" and its "neutral status" is jointly guaranteed by the two countries.

The Russians recognized that the federal government headed by the new president is the only legitimate government of the United States, and promised to send troops immediately to assist the federal government in "quelling domestic rebellion" and suppressing all separatist forces (including but not limited to the Pennsylvania Republic supported by the Dragon Country) in order to "maintain peace and stability in North America."

In return, the US will disband all its overseas military bases in Europe and Asia and recognize Russia's "traditional sphere of influence" in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

The two sides will establish a new global organization, "G2", to replace the Blue Star United Congress and jointly "manage" the world.

At the end of the agreement, there is an additional clause - the American government agrees to build a "Bear-Eagle Friendship Monument" for General Secretary Joseph in Washington, DC.

As for the size and material of the monument, it will be "decided through friendly consultation between the two parties."

When Sullivan signed his name on the agreement with trembling hands, two lines of turbid tears flowed from his eyes.

He knew that he had signed a death certificate for the country he loved so much with his own hands.

Joseph, on the other hand, proudly raised his glass and drank heartily with the Russian officials present, his face filled with the smug smile of a victor.

From this day on, a new and chilling alliance was born.

The bear and the eagle, two former mortal enemies, temporarily and ironically came together for common interests and to fight against the rising and more powerful Eastern dragon.

The establishment of the "Bear Eagle Alliance" marks that the Blue Planet has officially entered a darker, more dangerous and more unpredictable era of "bipolar hegemony".

The "city on the hill" that once symbolized freedom and hope finally extinguished its light completely after experiencing internal betrayal and external bullying, and became a humiliated, castrated vassal dependent on the polar bear.
