Three container trucks are speeding on the highway in the Turkish port city of Antalya.
The containers carried by these three trucks were three disassembled former Soviet-made AK-360 close-in defense guns and their supporting ammunition.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Turkey, Ukraine and Georgia have gradually become leaders in the arms black market in Eastern Europe.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the drastic changes in Eastern Europe, almost all the countries surrounding the Mediterranean became black markets for arms trading, and these three countries were particularly prominent.
Hundreds of millions of Soviet-made weapons and equipment of all kinds are sold all over the world from these countries, and the magic here is far more than just the huge transaction volume. What’s even more amazing is that as long as you have money, you can buy it here.
Except for strategic nuclear missiles and fifth-generation aircraft, almost all weapons and equipment.
Not to mention the close-in defense artillery produced by the former Soviet Union, as long as you give enough money, you can save even the raw materials for nuclear weapons in these places.
Among them, Turkey has a world-renowned nuclear black market. After the core fuel rods of nuclear submarine reactors dismantled by the former Soviet Union were removed, most of them flowed into the black market here.
If you have enough money, it is not difficult to buy more than ten kilograms of enriched uranium from here and go home to save a big bomb yourself.
Therefore, three close-in defense guns can only be regarded as an ordinary and inconspicuous transaction in a place like this.
Several Eastern European arms traffickers escorted these three container trucks to the port of Antalya, where a container ship was almost full.
After the three trucks entered the port, they were immediately arranged to the berth of the container ship.
The three Americans had been waiting at the parking lot for a long time. When they saw the three cars coming down, they immediately stepped forward to meet with the person in charge of escorting the cars.
The surrounding personnel had been cleared out in advance, so that the two sides began arms trading in broad daylight.
No one on either side spoke. The person in charge of the escort opened the containers of the three vehicles and asked the three Americans to go up and inspect them one by one.
After confirming that it was correct, the three people jumped out of the container. One of them waved to the freighter, and a small loader immediately placed an iron box weighing 600 kilograms down on the freighter.
The person in charge of the escort immediately stepped forward, opened the iron box, and found that it was full of golden gold bars. He winked at the people around him, and several people immediately came over with equipment, took out the gold bars one by one, tested them, weighed them, and then
Put it into several packages that you carry.
The iron box contained 500 kilograms of gold. All the gold bars were re-melted before departure and made from flat molds. There was not even a steel stamp on the whole body, so naturally no clues could be found.
After the person in charge of the escort confirmed that there was no shortage of gold in the five hundred kilograms, he came to the three Americans with a smile and said with a smile: "There is no problem with five hundred kilograms. The price of gold has increased since we discussed the price.
Two points, I won’t refund the price difference.”
An American said: "No need to refund, do business with us. If the gold price goes up, you don't need to refund the difference. If the gold price drops, we will make up the difference for you."
The man smiled and said: "To be honest, I like doing business with you people from Blackwater Company. It's simple, efficient, and enjoyable."
One of the Americans said coldly: "Remember, if you tell anyone the name of Blackwater, we will not let you go."
"No problem!" The man laughed, and then said with a smile: "I also have a lot of Western European NATO weapons here. If you are interested, I can give you a price."
The American frowned and asked, "When did you start dumping NATO weapons?"
"Haha!" The man said with a smile: "Go to Ukraine when you have time. The weapons from NATO are almost overflowing. More than half of the weapons aided by NATO member states have gone to the black market. If you want anything, just say it.
