Samir did not directly refuse this time, he just said, "My troops are fighting the 1515 Armed every day, and people are dying every day. We are not good at putting on a show."
"There's no need for a show." Yusuf said seriously, "We just need to let the outside world see the truth. I'll arrange for a few reliable journalists to go to the front lines to conduct interviews and take some real footage. Sometimes, the truth is the best propaganda."
Concerned that Samir might dislike these matters, he emphasized, "This is the game rules of the political circle. I know you don't like this sort of thing, but you have to abide by it. Nobody likes a player who doesn't follow the rules."
Song Heping raised his teacup, "Then it's settled. Yusuf is responsible for pushing the bill in Baghdad, and Samir will cooperate to ensure the appearance of things is fine. I will coordinate relationships with the Americans and Kurd people to ensure this can be achieved."
