Chapter 646 Resign

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The cold applause continued.

But when Yurisses stepped onto the stage, amidst the awkward and cold applause, the current leader of the United States had completely regained his calm. The person who appeared in front of the camera and in front of everyone's line of sight was a completely friendly and confident smiling face. Naturally, there was not the slightest bit of reluctance.

This kind of cultivation and endurance was truly not something an ordinary power figure could possess.

After the initial awkwardness, Joseph's face was also full of smiles. He embraced Yurisses warmly as he walked onto the stage. The microphone connected. Joseph slowly took a few steps back. Then, Yurisses stood on the podium.

The atmosphere in the auditorium suddenly changed slightly, and it seemed to be a little cold.

As the current president of the United States, Yurisses's situation was even worse than Atlas's. Although the opposition to Atlas was loud, due to the guidance of public opinion, the family had always been the image of a savior among the American people, and its popularity was very high.

However, Yurisses was different. Whether it was the candidates challenging his current position, or the general public, they did not have a good impression of the president whom they trusted in the past.

All the losses the United States has suffered in recent days, Undoubtedly, Yurisses was to blame, Yurisses today, both officially and privately, The approval rating had plummeted. As the president of the United States, it had caused such a huge loss and even humiliation to the country. It had even caused a war. Hundreds of thousands of people had already lost their lives. Under the circumstances, apart from Yurisses ' trusted aides, no one would choose to support Yurisses .

Even in the past few years, Yurisses has done well, even very well.

Yurisses didn't care about the cold atmosphere at the scene. He was already under great pressure, and he was already mentally prepared for what was happening now.

Standing on the podium, he adjusted the position of the microphone and said directly, "Everyone, I have to announce a fact today, a fact that perhaps everyone already knows."

"Marshal Earlaen Atlas, as well as the entire Atlas family, are my closest friends."

As he said this, Yurisses could clearly see that the eyes of the several Military Generals below the stage suddenly turned cold, followed by some commotion.

He could even imagine Earlaen's gloomy expression.

How could Yurisses not know Atlas's future plans? In his position, it was almost impossible for him to think less than anyone else. In the current situation, what Atlas would do was in their best interests. As long as they changed their positions and thought about it, they could basically draw a conclusion.

But it is clear that the best interests of Atlas are not in Yurisses ' interest.

So with Joseph's words just now, Yurisses naturally had to add a fire. No matter how close they were to each other, no matter how close they were to each other, they would be tainted with power or even the future of their country. There was no lack of intense competition. Moreover, Yurisses and Atlas were still scheming against each other. There would naturally be more twists and turns.

Yurisses seemed to be satisfied with the reaction. He smiled and continued, "The Atlas family is not only my friend, but also, to some extent, my noble one."

"There has been a lot of media publicity lately, said the Atlas family was the savior of the United States, Personally, This assessment seems a little exaggerated, But undeniably, Atlas was a great help to America in the war. They were all brave warriors who were good at using their strength to shatter all schemes and schemes. I am proud to have such a friend, and I believe Atlas will contribute all his strength to America in the coming war. "

Yurisses paused for a moment before continuing, "Our country is invincible!"

Amidst the tidal wave of applause, Earlaen Atlas's expression became gloomier and gloomier. A trace of killing intent appeared on Catu's face, who had always been beside him.

Yurisses ' words were too harsh. His closest friend, warrior, shattered all schemes. In a few words, he had created a brave and righteous Atlas family. In the days to come, unless Atlas ignored his reputation, it would not be convenient for him to play any schemes.

"He deserves to die!"

Cato said coldly.

"Forget it, it's nothing."

Earlaen took a deep breath, as if he wanted to breathe out all the sullen air in his chest. He suddenly smiled and said, "It's understandable that he did this. After all, if he supported Atlas, he would definitely have conditions. Are we still hoping that he won't say anything or do anything?"

Cato pursed his lips and remained silent.

Earlaen narrowed his eyes and continued to laugh, "Moreover, he seems to be in a bit of a hurry today. It seems that the pressure he has endured these past few days has made him somewhat unbearable, so he is eager to ease the current situation. However, it has also caused him to lose his balance. There are some words that are too straightforward and can only be counterproductive."

Jia Tu was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, he immediately understood what his father meant. A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Who could be more foolish than the old foxes standing in the superstructure of the United States?

Yurisses had his own considerations, His opponents weren't brainless either. At today's ceremony, Joseph and Yurisses were the first to talk about their relationship with the Atlas Family. This was a sign of guilt, and this kind of performance might be an opportunity for others.

Although that didn't sound very reliable, it definitely wouldn't let the other forces in the United States feel that they didn't have the courage to come into contact with the Atlas family.

"Take your time, don't worry."

Earlaen Atlas patted Cato on the shoulder and said meaningfully, "The war has only just begun."

"Yes, it's just beginning."

Cato nodded with a smile. His expression was brilliant. Whether it was inside or outside, it was just the beginning.

He looked coldly at Yurisses, who was still speaking from the podium.

'"Mr. President, you just mentioned war. I wonder if I can understand it this way. In your heart, there is no possibility of reconciliation between the United States and the Divine Continent. Do you have to settle all disputes through war?"

After Yurisses's brief speech, a reporter immediately stepped forward and asked.

The ceremony was grand and luxurious because of the people involved, but it was also simple because of the simplicity of the process.

Opening Speech, President's Speech, Question and Answer by Journalists, Speech by Earlaen, Question and Answer by Journalists, Closing.

With a total of two hours, it was naturally impossible to add some complicated links.

"Because of this war, more than 200,000 people have died in the United States. Yes, I don't think there is any possibility or need for a peaceful settlement between the United States and the Divine Continent. I think it's ironic that 200,000 lives and peace are put together."

Yurisses said calmly. His gaze swept across the reporter's body. Unfortunately, it was a bit far away. He did not know which media the reporter belonged to.

"Mr. President, I would like to ask your opinion on this war. As far as I know, all of this originated from a recent terrorist attack. Unfortunately, we still do not have any evidence that the terrorists belong to the Divine Continent Empire. To be exact, this is just one-sided words from the U.S. Government."

A reporter stood out and asked sharply.

"We will not wrongly accuse any country, I can use all my guarantees, the current loss of the United States has the most direct relationship with the Divine Continent Empire. Ladies and gentlemen, the United States has always been a peace-loving country. In the past decades, the United States has also made countless efforts for global peace. What I want to say is that the United States is absolutely unwilling to start a war with any country when there is a choice. " Divine Continent Empire has developed very quickly in recent years. They are now the most developed country in Asia. Their military, economy, and technology are all very powerful. Even if they take 10,000 steps back, if the United States really wanted to wage war, they would not choose such a strong or even ridiculous opponent for themselves."

"I would like to reiterate that the United States has always been a peace-loving country, but we definitely do not lack the courage to face war. I believe that no matter what opponent we face, the United States will be the final victor. There will be no suspense in this war!"

Yurisses's demeanor grew more and more calm.

"According to Mr. President's logic, the United States is the most powerful country in the world. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the Divine Continent Empire to choose the United States as its opponent. Isn't that right?"

A foreign media reporter belonging to the Gauls stood up and questioned.

" Divine Continent Empire is a newly advanced developed country, but in recent years, their development has been very rapid. Their overall strength is not inferior to some old developed countries. In such a situation, excessive expansion naturally leads to enormous ambitions. Although it is a bit absurd, it is not incomprehensible for them to want to replace the status of the United States, is it not?"

Yurisses said calmly.

"There are many ways to surpass the United States and replace it. With all due respect, I personally believe that war is the most undesirable way. After this war ended, regardless of victory or defeat, the Divine Continent Empire and the United States would suffer heavy losses in terms of national strength. It is even possible for both countries to return to the ranks of developing countries unless one country is able to destroy the other completely and occupy all the land and resources of the other. But this is clearly impossible. So, I'm sorry, Mr. President. I don't think that the Divine Continent Empire wanted to replace the United States and thus unilaterally wage war. As far as I know, not long before the terrorist attack, some extremely horrible incidents happened in the Divine Continent Empire. Among them were the explosion of a flyover in Kyushu City, the poisoning of a top university, the looting of an arsenal, the robbery of a bank, and so on … I wonder what Mr. President thinks of this series of events? "Are these matters related to the United States?"

The foreign reporter did not stop asking questions and continued to ask.

"As I said, the United States is a peace-loving country. Everything that the reporter said has nothing to do with the American government. Moreover, the United States has no need to do those things. There is no motive, let alone any reason. The social contradictions in the Divine Continent Empire in recent years have been very acute. Perhaps it is because of their internal problems."

Yurisses said indifferently.

The Gaul reporter hesitated for a moment, then thanked him and sat down.

Yurisses casually ordered another reporter.

'"Mr. President, I am Smith from the new British space-time media. What I want to ask next is perhaps a question that all countries in the world are paying attention to. If the war between the Divine Continent Empire and the United States is not optimistic, will the United States take some extreme measures?"

The reporter stood up and spoke cautiously.

"Extreme measures? For example?"

Yurisses smiled.

"For example, nuclear weapons."

The British reporter's voice became more cautious.

The entire scene instantly became quiet.

Even the reporters who were scrambling to raise their hands to ask questions subconsciously withdrew their arms.

Nuclear weapons.

Nuclear war!

Both the United States and the Divine Empire possess nuclear weapons, Once a nuclear war started, it could become a true apocalypse for the entire world. However, once a nuclear war was launched, the two countries would become the target of public criticism. Other countries would probably join forces to attack the United States and the Divine Continent Empire. At that time, World War III would be the final madness of the entire human race.

After going crazy, doomsday was inevitable.

This is indeed a matter of great concern to the heads of State and people of any country in the world.

Yurisses remained silent.

All of a sudden, everyone watching this scene on and off the scene became nervous.

"The U.S. Government does not guarantee that it will not use nuclear weapons."

After a long silence, Yurisses said indifferently, "But we can guarantee that the United States will not take the lead in using nuclear weapons. The United States will try its best to resolve all disputes through conventional war."

"A wise decision. Thank you."

The reporter nodded and let out a long sigh of relief.

Yurisses smiled and looked at his watch.

It's already 3:40.

"Then..."

He opened his mouth. Just as he was about to finish the question session, a reporter stood up without being named and said calmly, "Sorry, Mr. President, I have another question." Mr. President, so far, more than 200,000 people have lost their lives in the United States. Among these people are soldiers, police officers, and even more civilians. It seems that the losses of the United States can no longer be measured in terms of money. I would like to ask you, Mr. President, to evaluate your own actions during this period of time. In the absence of a direct war between the two countries, the United States has suffered such a heavy loss. Do you think this is your negligence? As President of the United States, in the face of the impending war, you did not do all the defensive work. Do you think you should shoulder your responsibilities? Do you have anything to say to the whole country and the whole world? "

Are the three of them.

It was crafty and spicy, like a knife, sharp and sharp.

Yurisses silently looked at the reporter who asked the question.

The reporter straightened his body and looked at Yurisses unyieldingly.

"Yes."

After a long suffocating silence, Yurisses slowly said, "I admit that all of this was my negligence. Here, I apologize to the entire United States and to all of my fellow citizens who have died."

He faced the camera, bowed deeply, and then said in a low voice, "I will be responsible for all the losses."

He looked at the reporters and said word for word, "I will resign from the presidency. At the right time, of course."
