Nick Jameson: President Yuri Suvarov

Quotes 

• Vice President Noah Daniels : [Through video conference as Karen sits nearby]  I have some good news to share with you

  President Yuri Suvarov : And what is this good news?

  Vice President Noah Daniels : We were successful in taking out the Chinese agent who was attempting to smuggle FB sub circuit board out of the country

  President Yuri Suvarov : Are you saying you have the component back in your possession?

  Vice President Noah Daniels : No sir, the sub circuit board was destroyed when we attacked the Chinese

  President Yuri Suvarov : I see, I assume you have proof of this?

  Vice President Noah Daniels : Yes we do: in addition to fragments from the destroyed component, I'm prepared to give you images or documentation to assure you this threat's been neutralized

  President Yuri Suvarov : do you mean the same documentation you planted with one of my agents?

  Vice President Noah Daniels : Excuse me?

  President Yuri Suvarov : The same images you coerced him sending to my people: of a strike that accomplished nothing but destroying an empty building. Yes I know you exposed one of my operatives, I had him under surveillance, which is how I know about your raid on his apartment

  Vice President Noah Daniels : Mr. President...

  President Yuri Suvarov : [Interrupts him]  now if the Chinese agent in possession of the sub circuit board is allowed to transfer it to his government, the entire Russian defense system will be compromised. I told you I would hold you and your government responsible

  Vice President Noah Daniels : I will not tolerate any threats from you: we're doing everything in our power to ensure this component does not reach China

  President Yuri Suvarov : I have already given you ample time to recover it. Now I am feeling less generous. If you do not deliver concrete and irrefutable proof to our embassy that you have recovered or destroyed this component within two hours, I will no choice but to extend my country's forward perimeter to compensate for our defensive vulnerabilities

  Vice President Noah Daniels : You are talking about attacking one of our military bases: now I would urge you to consider the consequences of that. We have just as many troops in that area, and allies will not look kindly upon any unprovoked aggression on my country

  President Yuri Suvarov : You and I both know it will not be unprovoked. This is a matter of survival for us, it is in both our interests that you get that component back: you have two hours
