Reich Marshal of the Belkan Reich

-------------------------------------------------------
Molotov is a proud Old Bolshevik, he has since nations, people, rises and falls, but he must admit that he has never seen a country that is as stalwart as the Belkan Reich. While it may be a criminal's thought, Molotov thinks that his beloved nation has now found itself severely lacking behind its Western neighbor. The ability to deploy a powerful navy, means to conduct strategic long-range air operations, highly effective intelligent department, impressive logistical capability, advanced medical practices, loyally spirited citizens... Just one of them is enough to uplift the face of the Rusviet Union on the geopolitical stage, and the Belkan Reich encompasses all. It takes them a mere four years to achieve everything, while in a similar timespan, the Union only manages to slightly improve its industrial sector. The Union clearly has more men and resources to extract, but clearly, they have been inefficiently utilizing them while Belka makes the best of what they have. A notion that is reflected by the fact that Belka has been cutting back on importing Rusviet resources a great many times, while it's Rusviet that is now needing high-quality material from elsewhere to fuel Stalin's modernization program.
At first, Molotov doesn't quite get why Stalin was hellbent on refurbishing the military, not when other integral sectors were still outdated compared to the rest of the world. But having seen some of the more militarist aspects of the video projection, Molotov can relate somewhat to Stalin's desire. At least with a strong military, Rusviet can run a tighter ship, since the recent chaos has created the chance for some unwanted population to lurk around.
But as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, it's in Molotov and Rusviet's best interests to resolve their cordial relationship with Belka. The Rusviet military has an upcoming occasion to survey Belkan's military technological achievements, hence Molotov can just leave the militarist matters in the hands of the generals. What the man is aiming for, however, is to secure further cooperation in the civilian and industrial sectors. It's clear to everyone that Belka is now a highly advanced nation after their modernization program. This means that Belka must have an impressive industrial capacity. If Rusviet can get its hand on a portion of the new production technologies, Molotov can see their own industrial sector being propelled by years. There's also the medical advancements that he saw in the video. Molotov knows not a small number of people that can have their ailment treated by Belkan procedures. Stalin himself would even want such medical improvements to be spread across the Union.
Happy and healthy workers equal a strong Rusviet, Stalin said. Though Molotov knows that they're still a far cry from making that statement a reality, mostly due to the happy and healthy part. As Stalin's right-hand man, Molotov understands that propaganda can only boost morale so far. Actual, credible materialistic things are required for the citizens to cooperate with the nation.
And Molotov hopes to at least achieve some of that with their Belkan friends during his stay here in Stockholm.
