    The Story of how Vanya Zhukov was meditating about the continental key

  The Story of how Vanya Zhukov was meditating about the continental key
  
  
  Vanya decided to float by the yacht. "Why is she standing idle?" I will float... like this ... like ... oligarch!'
  
  However, the ocean trip in full to carry out failed.
  
  As soon as the yacht departed from the coast, the captain of the yacht came: "The phone call for you".
  
  Vanya took the mobile phone.
  
  - Now, for you will arrive the Deputy ... there..., - said on the phone a voice a great diplomat.
  
  Vanya looked at the sea space. Not far from the yacht, an amphibious aircraft was landing.
  
  A boat was lowered from the plane, and soon the Deputy Ambassador from the East African country appeared before Vanya.
  
  The Deputy Ambassador kindly smiled at Vanya, took the phone from him and said into the phone:
  
  - I'm here!
  
  - Good! - the voice of the great diplomat was heard from the receiver.
  
  Deputy Ambassador gave the phone back to Vanya.
  
  Vanya heard:
  
  - I'm busy. And by phone you will not explain everything. You have an important emergency. The Deputy will explain. Listen carefully and act.
  
  Vanya decided to raise for discussion a question of recognition extinguished all debts to the great diplomat and also of new conditions of cooperation.
  
  But the great diplomat hung up.
  
  The Deputy Ambassador and his three polite companions in uniform without signs of distinctions kindly invited Vanya into the boat.
  
  The conversation continued in the amphibious aircraft.
  
  - "I'll explain," - said the Deputy Ambassador. - 'You were running around town, running errands.'
  
  Vanya nodded his head in confirmation.
  
  - "You're on a small errand... you're trying... You expect the client to pay for your efforts?"
  
  Vanya vaguely shrugged his shoulders.
  
  The Deputy Ambassador was waiting for an answer from Vanya.
  
  Vanya again shrugged his shoulders:
  
  - Customers are different...
  
  the Deputy Ambassador, without receiving the expected answer, decided, however, to continue the own logical construction:
  
  - 'You've done another errand. The customer refuses to pay. Does it can be happen?'
  
  - 'Usually the customer acts in the another way. He says: "Come tomorrow, in a few days, in a month..." "Sometimes increases the sum of promises,to retain interest to them and provide motivation for further work under him." "But he doesn't pay anyway." "Come tomorrow, in a few days, in a month...'
  
  Vanya's answer did not fully correspond to the logic of the Deputy Ambassador, so he decided to push aside his logic constructions and move on to specifics, to a subject:
  
  - "We have been assigned the task of relocating 'The International Centre for intellectual efforts in the tropical region' to an European southern Mediterranean country. Your task is to fly with us, try to get more information about the situation and put forward ideas, concepts, approaches about the "continental key".
  
  "A confidential information is not announced loudly needlessly", - Vanya guessed.
  
  - '... To put forward ideas, concepts, approaches about the "continental key",' - Vanya repeated.
  
  - "Excellent," - said the Deputy Ambassador. He looked at Vanya. Vanya looked good - in a new suit, trimmed, rested at the estate, drank a cup of coffee (even had a good lunch).
  
  - Special assignments are carried out in clothes which do not attract attention.
  
  Vanya sighed.
  
  - You are a writer? Means, you read a books?
  
  Vanya nodded in confirmation.
  
  - Before the start of a special task you ought to change clothes and to to pass your documents and money for storage.
  
  Vanya was given clothes and shoes made of camouflage fabric.
  
  Vanya changed clothes.
  
  Motors started working. The plane headed to the East.
  
  After a few hours of flight Vanya was given a plastic glass of mineral water and a piece of bread. It seemed to Vanya that the Deputy Ambassador argued with someone from crew of the plane. In any case, after a while Vanya was in addition given still a cheese piece.
  
  Soon one of the pilots came and said: "Border area. There is no exact territorial differentiation here. Let's try to land here. A kind of neutral territory."
  
  The plane began to decline towards the surface of a huge river.
  
  Vanya learned the Nile.
  
  Soon towards the plane the yacht, familiar to Vanya, floated up.
  
  Between the amphibian and the yacht the boat began to "running". Towards the plane she transported personnel of "The international center of intellectual efforts on the tropical region" and numerous huge sports bags. Towards the yacht, for the purpose of acquaintance with a situation, Vanya went.
  
  He friendly greeted the familiar captain and carelessly asked: "What a situation?"
  
  The captain in hands had a radio receiver. He was going to listen to a news.
  
  Vanya heard the announcer's voice:
  
  - The authorities were changed. New people came. Old portraits are thrown out in dustbins. The former ruling party was separated from the process of forming a new government. Ambassadors in a number of the countries are replaced. A new political vectors ...
  
  Everything was clear. The general content of the new ideas about "a continental key" was clear.
  
  - "This yacht, Mr. Beetley, was produced with usage of elements of the gunboat which welcomed Mr. Schliemann - during his floating along the Nile". "It will be interesting to you to learn about it!" "She, I assume, remembers not only dear doctor Schliemann, but also dear general - the governor general, and dear lieutenant - sir correspondent!"
  
  "It would be pleasant to continue floating on this yacht, but the climate of these places not is suitable for all people", - Vanya thought, looking at the Deputy Ambassador and three polite companions in uniform without signs of distinctions approaching him.
  
  Soon the plane flew towards the European southern Mediterranean state..
  
  All passengers of the amphibian were settled in the wonderful estate. Vanya was settled separately - in the lodge standing in a distance from the main buildings. The lodge intended for servants.
  
  Vanya walked in the park and wrote down thoughts concerning the new attitude to "a continental key".
  
  Gradually his meditations got a coherent form. He finished them with the conclusions:
  
  "In this situation, there are two options of the attitude to the "continental key".
  
  The first option is a predominantly positive attitude. It is based on the understanding that the people of each sovereign country solve their own problems.
  
  The second option is a predominantly negative attitude. Such an attitude should be justified by the existence of the concept of true sovereignty, the exercise of pressure, a going beyond all imaginable and unthinkable norms of international law, the intention to "direct down - toward a bottom" and to "suppress" other countries.
  
  In order to choose between the two options, it is necessary to make their conceptual approbation at a meeting of the Assembly on international and military policy. After such approbation to make a choice or - to formulate another derivative option. Then to express the chosen option as a public position at the meeting in the official body."
  
  Vanya quickly gave to the records the appropriate form, approached the main buildings of the estate for transfer of the text to the Deputy Ambassador.
  
  Nearby a rows of luxury cars lined up. "They produce an intellectual product!"- Vanya assumed.
  
  The Deputy Ambassador came out immediately. He carelessly took Vanya's text: "I will glance!" 'While you are free.' "How about dinner?" 'All the cooks are busy...' 'A little later... Then... Then....' 'I'll say... If I will not forget...' 'Look ... there what can be found ...'.
  
  Vanya went to a servant's lodge to have a sleep a little. And if it will be possible, then to eat a little before going to bed. "It would not be bad and to swim in the sea. To find the beach not so difficult - probably ... It is desirable to have swimming trunks ...".
  
  By on the avenue of the park the magnificent car proceeded. It seemed to Vanya that he saw through a car glass of the great diplomat, who was philosophically looking at the world.
  
  "Is he?.. Not he?.. He went, probably, to carry out approbation in Assembly?. It is necessary - to officially declare a some an attitude, a position?."
  
  Vanya continued to go through the park towards a lodge for a service staff.
  
  The magnificent sculptural groups decorating the park were creating a wonderful, romantic mood ...
