The Amazing son in law Chapter 7910

At the Japanese press conference, silence remained after three bows.

This silence was primarily due to the absence of anyone except the spokesperson.

However, the White House press conference was erupting in cheers and gasps.

The cheers came almost entirely from American media; the impact of this event was so significant and negative that American media naturally felt deeply ashamed.

But the Japanese press conference had just shifted the blame to the vast majority of the issue, meaning that the immense public and international pressure on the United States had instantly lessened by 90%.

The gasps came from foreign media outlets who had been waiting to see what would happen.
Everyone was eager to see how the American spokesperson would respond to the barrage of questions, resorting to sophistry and distorting the truth. However, they hadn’t expected them to employ such a clever, underhanded tactic.

The spokesperson’s expression now held a victorious smile.

Amidst the astonishment of the crowd, she stepped onto the podium, a professional smile on her face, and began, “I believe everyone has clearly seen the Japanese press conference and is aware of the specifics. Now, we will proceed to our own press conference. Since the Japanese spokesperson has already explained things clearly, we will skip the press conference and go directly to the Q&A session.”

The reporters in the audience raised their hands.

The spokesperson scanned the room, deliberately selecting a Russian reporter, and said, “Please, the reporter from RIA Novosti, ask your question.”The Russian journalist truly never expected this to happen to him. Generally, when holding live press conferences, the Q&A session avoids targeting media from countries with whom they have a hostile relationship, to prevent these journalists from publicly attacking them. Even when they have to call on one or two journalists to ask questions, it’s usually done much later in the session, with very little time allotted, resulting in low viewership.

But tonight, with such a major event, they actually gave the first question-and-answer slot to a Russian journalist—it’s simply outrageous.

Amidst surprise and delight, the Russian journalist quickly composed herself and, microphone in hand, asked, “Ms. Spokesperson, if I remember correctly, the Antarctic Treaty stipulates that no country may send troops to Antarctica for any reason. Although the Japanese spokesperson just explained the specific situation, I don’t think this is a reasonable excuse for the United States to send troops to Antarctica. Couldn’t two countries collude and stage such a farce to openly send troops to Antarctica? Moreover, this matter could have been reported to the United Nations first, and then the UN could have decided whether a particular country or the UN should send a joint force to resolve it. But the United States and Japan bypassed the UN and unilaterally decided to secretly send troops. Isn’t that a rather egregious act?”

The Russian journalist felt that her question was watertight, and the other side had no direct rebuttal, because whatever happened between them was their own business; the US’s deployment of troops to Antarctica was wrong.

The spokesperson, unperturbed, began, “This Russian journalist friend should have just heard the Japanese explanation of the situation. They discovered a large amount of fuel missing from the icebreaker. We have reason to suspect that this fuel was used on some exploration equipment, and we also have reason to suspect that the traitorous Japanese research team used the fuel for environmental destruction. Moreover, no one knows what kind of exploration they were conducting. What if it was an act of terrorism? If intervention is not timely and extremely serious consequences occur, who will be responsible to Antarctica and to the people of the world?”
