Chapter 1089 The storm of renewed alliance between the Netherlands and the United States

William IV quietly arrived in Albury, New South Wales, where he tested the Browning automatic rifle.

On March 15, 1883, Secretary of State Bryant of the Confederate States of America visited the Kingdom of the Netherlands again after 4 years and 3 months.

He held bilateral talks with Dutch Foreign Minister Mari Philip in New Zealand.

The Netherlands and the United States will fully resume free import and export trade with tax rates below 10% on April 1, and their respective countries will propose that tariffs will be below 5% in five years.

Prior to this, the Dutch semi-official media "The Australian Times" reported on the 13th that American Global Shipping Company and major shipping companies in the Netherlands had received official notices that the Netherlands and America would further open up their respective ports.

In this regard, many experts said that this meeting at the level of New Zealand's Foreign Minister was due to the London Summit of the United Kingdom, Germany and Austria-Hungary promoting the semi-alliance between the Netherlands and the United States.

Since the Democratic former President of the United States, Stephen Douglas, came to power in early 1879, the relationship between the Netherlands and the United States began to deteriorate.

Since Galfield, a Republican, came to power, he has accelerated the easing of relations with the Netherlands.

As we all know, the Democratic Party has a more relaxed relationship with the UK.

The thirteen states currently seeking independence in the South are actually the former territories of the Democratic Party.

Therefore, the Democratic Party and the South, currently known as the Confederate States of America, are still brothers.

The Republicans are just cousins ​​at most.

Therefore, the Democrats had a better relationship with the United Kingdom, but were very dissatisfied with the Netherlands for supporting the suppression of the south.

Moreover, the Republican Party has always been the biggest supporter of plutocrats, and the Dutch are precisely the earliest pioneers of New York, and they are also the actual controllers of New York, the largest financial city in the United States.

Therefore, in terms of concepts, Dutch Americans are becoming less and less attractive to the Democratic Party, and have become the target of attacks by the Democratic Party.

Hatred of the rich is the biggest attraction of the Democratic Party.

Dutch people are the richest people in the United States.

If it weren't for the fact that the factories established by the Dutch employed millions of workers, the Democratic Party would have launched a anti-Dutch movement long ago.

The Republican Party is the stronghold of Dutch-Americans.

This time the Republican Garfield came to power, it was actually more of an attempt by the Netherlands to collectively support him.

Millions of employees vote for a designated person in order to make a living. Workers obediently vote for a certain person that the boss likes. Isn't this a very social phenomenon?

Therefore, it is understandable that both President Garfield and Secretary of State Bryant of the United States have other thoughts about the Netherlands.

Since Garfield came to power, relations between the United States and the Netherlands have improved to a higher level, and personnel exchanges between the two countries have begun to resume as before 1878.

Even later this month, Republican members of Congress from the United States will form a delegation to visit Melbourne.

At the same time, the pro-Dutch faction within the Democratic Party will also visit Amsterdam in the Netherlands alone, so the relationship between the Netherlands and the United States may be further enhanced.

Some analysts believe that the rapid recovery of relations between the Netherlands and the United States this time is not only because the Republican Party has always been pro-Dutch, but also mainly because America's old enemy Britain has formed an alliance with the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which has made the United States start to stay away from Berlin.

During the Stephen Douglas period, he was close to Germany to dilute the Dutch influence in the United States, and the effect was good.

But now Germany is allied with its old enemy, Britain.

Many people in the United States feel as if they have been betrayed by Berlin.

Therefore, even though there are 7 million Germans in the United States, they still cannot resist public opinion that is dissatisfied with Germany.

The Republican Party's coming to power in this election is the punishment of the greatest public opinion.

The people of the United States and the Netherlands are stimulated by the alliance between Britain, Germany and Austria, so strengthening Pacific cooperation and Atlantic cooperation will be something that the two countries pursue together.

Dougs, executive director of the Center for American Studies at the University of Melbourne in the Netherlands, told The Australian Times on March 9, 1882 that the Dutch-led camp used one cooperation mechanism after another to deal with Britain, Germany and even Austria-Hungary.

He was able to handle the situation with ease, especially in the crisis of the Mexican-Austro-Hungarian War in Latin America, and seemed to have the upper hand.

However, during the Mexican War, the effective cohesion of the Thirteen Latin American Group was forged with the Mexican War as the furnace.

This allowed other major countries to see the power of teamwork, and also allowed Britain and even Germany, which were at odds with the Netherlands, to speed up their exploration and even further form their own alliances.

The alliance between Britain, Germany and Austria will have a chain reaction and trigger further alliances with other neighboring powers and even small and medium-sized countries. It deserves continued attention.

The Netherlands and the United States are making a comeback to return to the alliance status they had before 1879, which is definitely a storm of news for Latin American countries.

Especially Argentina, which is at loggerheads with the Netherlands. It is said that Bartolome Miter, who has ruled Argentina for exactly 20 years now, is bound to be challenged.

Nicolas Avillaneda has long been the most powerful senior official in the three provinces of Jujuy, Salta and Tucumán in northwestern Argentina.

There is also Julio Rocca, a senior official in the provinces of Entre Ríos and Corrientes, who is looking at the three countries of Uruguay, Brazil and Paraguay in the eastern part of Buenos Aires Province, the capital of Argentina.

The two men posed a threat to the capital Buenos Aires province in the east and west of Argentina.

Both of them have been running their respective family territories since their fathers, and their power is deeply rooted and very stable.

Just like the Mountain King, he listens to the president's instructions and listens to the instructions.

But there is no objection to Mitre's presidential position.

This strange triangle relationship has been very stable over the years.

Nicolas Avillaneda in the northwest has very frequent trade with Chile and opposes a war between Argentina and Chile.

Julio Rocca, a senior official in the eastern province of Entre Rios, has a close relationship with Germany and France, especially Germany. In recent years, the relationship between the German Empire and Uruguay has increased trade exchanges, so Julio Rocca has a close relationship with Germany and France.

It has close relations with the German Empire and good relations with Brazil.

Even Julio Roca has been in private contact with Paraguay, apparently leaving a way out, fearing that Argentine President Miter would one day lead his army to attack them.

At the same time, these two people have a close relationship with American capital. At this time, they saw that the Netherlands and the United States were resurgent and moving towards an alliance again.

That's okay, Latin America's tilt towards the Netherlands is inevitable.

So Jury Oroka and Nicolas Avillaneda, who were very aware of current affairs, began to openly attack President Bartolomé Miter's foreign policy again.

Directly express the various unfavorable factors for the cabinet government led by Miter and the Netherlands.

The two also asked Miter to carry out a foreign policy of easing relations with the Netherlands.

The two people's statement was echoed by more than half of Argentina's 23 administrative provinces. Except for the quiet south led by President Miter's old subordinate Sarmiento, all other parties fell into

in the midst of a foreign policy denunciation.

The changes in the political situation in Argentina suddenly caused a sudden change of color in Britain, Germany and Austria.'
