What Is Lost Inwardly Must Be Won Outwardly - Part 2 Borgen

The West sees you, Mr President, as a war criminal.

Let's talk, then.

Your country's cry for freedom and peace has been heard.

You're a good friend.

This programme contains some strong language.

Mr President.

It is with great expectations

that I welcome you and your delegation in Copenhagen.

HE SPEAKS IN ARABIC

Shall we?

HE SPEAKS IN ARABIC

Did you have a nice flight?

Uh?

This is what happens when you deal with Jakob Lokoya.

You can't say I did not warn you.

But...

Mr President, welcome to Copenhagen.

Thank you, Madam Prime Minister.

We are here in great hope.

Mr President, can you please explain to me

what happened in Orisia this morning?

What do you mean?

President Al-Jahwar has just left the negotiations

because he was told that you attacked and captured Orisia this morning.

Orisia belongs to our side of the border

and this morning, we defended our land

and threw out all the soldiers from the North.

Well, your actions haven't exactly helped the peace process.

I'm not sure we can get Omar Al-Jahwar to come back.

No. But I'm sorry for that.

But HE... It is him who destroys the peace process.

Please.

Ja?

Tak.

What would it take for you to leave Orisia?

What would it take to make Omar Al-Jahwar realise

that Orisia and Sarifan belong to South Kharun?

I know that you feel that Orisia belongs to you,

but the hostility in this particular area

is threatening the whole peace process

and I don't believe it's worth it.

I'd like to hear your thoughts, Uncle.

Well, I agree that Orisia belongs to you.

But I also believe that the peace process

is more important than Orisia right now.

My father told me

that the only way to solve a problem who seemed to be unsolvable

is to walk away from it, just for a while, change the perspective.

So my advice to you, Mr President, is to pull out of Orisia temporarily.

You're a wise man,

but I cannot allow the North to steal my country.

Well, I understand that, I understand that.

But what if Orisia was no-man's-land until after this summit?

You leave Orisia, but North doesn't enter.

HE WHISPERS

Thank you for your patience, Mr President.

South Kharun has offered to pull out of Orisia.

But only if you agree to consider Orisia a no-man's-land

until after this summit.

Why are you playing games?

I give you 24 hours.

If the South does not leave Orisia and give it back to me,

I will leave Copenhagen.

-Where did you get this information?

-I'm not allowed to tell you.

Then we have to leave now.

If these helicopters are to arrive in Sahore in five days,

then, we have to go home and prepare for war.

If you leave now, all hope is out.

If I don't leave now, all hope is out.

Have you ever seen what one of these helicopters can do?

Do you know how to protect your children from these helicopters?

You don't, because you can't.

One of these helicopters can destroy a whole village in two minutes

and then fly away. Two minutes, Uncle!

Yes. I understand that you have to prepare your defence.

But if you leave now, the peace process is over and the war begins.

What do you want from me?

The North are trying to kill us,

and you want me to stay here and do nothing?

I want you to stay here 12 more hours

and if China hasn't stopped the helicopters,

I suggest you go home and defend your people.

HE SIGHS

I'm not in any way questioning your right

to sell those helicopters to North Kharun.

What I'm trying to say is that I find it very complicated

in the middle of the peace process.

From what I hear, the process does not seem that successful.

Well, I don't know what you've heard, I know that my staff is working very hard

and that the feedback I get is positive.

Anyway, Mr Ambassador, six years ago,

the civil war stopped all oil production in Kharun for about a year.

As far as I know,

China gets about 7% of its oil from Kharun these days, is that correct?

If your helicopters arrive in Kharun in five days,

the peace process will collapse.

And instead of negotiating over the oil,

-they'll go back and fight over it.

-That is not our business.

We just deliver a product that North Kharun has legally bought from us.

But it will be your business.

It will become your business if the Kharunese oil production collapses

and forces you to replace 7% of your oil consumption overnight.

From my perspective, the only way to secure cheap oil in the future

is to secure peace in Kharun right now.

And you can only do that by stopping the ship

and not delivering the helicopters.

A small country like Denmark can't do it alone.

We need help from the world's leading nations.

I wish we had had this meeting a little earlier.

What can I do in 12 hours?

I'm afraid it is too late.

How about "a source close to the Kharunese oil industry"?

Hi.

APPLAUSE

Mr Lokoya, Mr Al-Jahwar,

in less than 12 hours, the negotiations will end,

so if we are to achieve the results we all worked for,

we really must excel ourselves.

-Birgitte?

-Excuse me.

TELEPHONE RINGS

I understand you want to reopen the oil negotiations.

No.

I just don't consider them closed.

Please have a seat.

Mr President, I know that you stretched yourself

more than I could have expected to make peace.

I appreciate that.

Yet I need you to stretch yourself a little further.

I am afraid it's not possible.

Please, Mr President.

These are documents that show that you've cheated South Kharun

for more than 10% of the oil revenues over the years.

As there's no need to share this information

with the rest of the world,

if you accept the agreement we reached yesterday

and withdraw your new demands,

that way we can reach a fair compromise.

South Kharun will never know that you've cheated

and you will have earned a lot of money that need never be known.

On the other hand, if you do not accept the terms,

I owe to my voters and supporters around the world

the fair and solid reason that we did not make any progress.

And I have to tell you - I will not lie to them.

It is with great gratitude that I stand before you today.

President Al-Jahwar,

President Lokoya,

you've worked very hard and very courageously for peace.

The two presidents have proven that there's hope

and where there's hope, there are possibilities.

And I therefore declare Copenhagen Peace Summit a success.

Please.
