"Did something big happen today?" Pamela Mountbatten had just arrived home when she learned about this big event that could be called an earthquake in the free world.
"That's not a big deal. It's only when my lover returns to China that it's a big deal." Alan Wilson put down his wife's luggage and opened his mouth with a PUA, leaving the female CEO completely unaware of where she was.
"I just know it's nice to say that the child is still here." Pamela Mountbatten glanced at the shocked children and pursed her lips as a reminder.
We had just arrived home, and it was obviously a time when the relationship was at its peak. If it hadn't been for the unpleasant call from No. 10 Downing Street, it would have been a beautiful day. Pamela Mountbatten watched her husband answer the phone, and said with soft eyes, "Go ahead. Who told you that you are still the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? When you come back from get off work, I will cook you something delicious."
"This is good news." Alan Wilson looked forward to it, picked up his briefcase and walked to the door, "Don't worry too much, I just came back."
Prime Minister Harold Wilson is holding a cabinet meeting regarding France's withdrawal from NATO. Secretary of State and Economic Affairs Secretary George Brown; Foreign Secretary Patrick Gordon Walker; Defense Secretary Denis Healey; and Chancellor of the Exchequer James Callaghan are all present.
What is analyzed is naturally the cause, process and result.
The Secretary-General of the Cabinet was not a cabinet minister. Alan Wilson was unable to attend the meeting and was only called in temporarily. When asked by the Prime Minister, he replied, "It may be the reason for the four hydrogen bombs that made France determined to make it."
made such a decision.”
Alan Wilson was referring to the plane crash in Spain two months ago. Now the whole of Europe knows that it was a bomber and a tanker that collided. In order to save their lives, the American pilot dropped the hydrogen bomb he was carrying into a small town in Spain. For
The Americans have always been tight-lipped about the crash. For such a long time, they relaxed the ban and allowed the Spaniards to cultivate the nuclear-contaminated land.
The fourth hydrogen bomb was never found, so the Americans wondered whether the powerful KGB had taken it away. Through active questioning by the Americans, the Soviets simulated the conclusion and immediately made their conclusion public.
Only then did Alan Wilson remember that this had indeed happened in history. The Soviets only speculated that the United States' nuclear materials in Spain had leaked, but he knew that the United States almost sent a simulated nuclear explosion to Spain. This incident happened in
Under the cover of the Soviet voice, it was made public.
News of the plane collision over Spain, which almost led to Spain being denuclearized, also spread throughout Europe. The United States chose not to say a word, which further fueled this suspicion.
The local residents were detained in their homes by the Americans for more than two months, and the information was blocked. After they went to farm at the crash site, they received news from the outside world that Spain was almost nuked by the Big Brother of the Free World.
Looking back now, the most heated discussion happened half a month ago. It is a bit far-fetched to link this incident with France's withdrawal from NATO, but Alan Wilson speculated like this. Who can do anything to him?
The dropped hydrogen bomb did not explode. If it did explode, who knows what the final result would be?
"There is no inevitable connection between these two things, right?" Defense Secretary Dennis Healy frowned. The U.S. hydrogen bomb fell, but it was still far away from France.
"Perhaps the French believe that these hydrogen bombs are for defense against France." Alan Wilson shrugged. "France has indeed not been very satisfied with the United States in recent years, and the French also understand this."
"The U.S. concealment of the collider incident was first disclosed by the Soviets. It did have a bad impact, but we can't tell whether it was the cause of France's withdrawal from NATO." Harold Wilson muttered slowly, "
But this really makes everyone very passive, can we make de Gaulle change his mind?"
Several cabinet ministers were not confident. Finally, when the Prime Minister's eyes fell on Alan Wilson, he simply replied, "No, De Gaulle wants to drive away the US military in the country for more than a day or two. With this hydrogen bomb,
He won’t change his mind about what he lost, actually?”
"Actually what?" Harold Wilson saw that the Cabinet Secretary was hesitant to speak, so he could only urge, "Alan, if you have anything to say, you can just say it."
"If we predict that the French will not compromise, then the next question arises. If the nuclear weapons placed in France by the United States are to be withdrawn, they must be placed in a country." Alan Wilson said this and raised a possibility, "Washington will
Don’t you want to put the withdrawn nuclear weapons in the UK?”
"This is impossible!" As soon as they finished speaking, several cabinet ministers started arguing, saying that they would never agree. Half a month ago, British citizens were discussing that the Americans had dropped the hydrogen bomb, and then the British agreed to the Americans dropping the hydrogen bomb.
Should the nuclear weapons withdrawn from France be placed in the UK? Unless they do not want to be entangled in the political arena, they will definitely not agree.
"I just raised a hypothetical question." Alan Wilson immediately said that this was just a hypothetical question. Naturally, he asked deliberately to see what everyone's attitude would be if such a thing really happened.
"Gordon, we still have to fight for France and prepare to visit Paris." Harold Wilson finally decided to fight for de Gaulle and let the Foreign Secretary go to Paris. If France can stay in NATO, it will have a great impact on the entire freedom.
There are huge benefits to the world.
Alan Wilson directly praised the Prime Minister's foresight, but he disagreed in his heart. France is a nation with a strong sense of national pride.
France has a proud and glorious history. In the eyes of the French, France in the era of Louis XIV, Greece in the era of Pericles, Rome in the age of Augustus, and Italy in the Renaissance are a peak in human history.
.
The French view Americans as a declining old aristocrat views an upstart: France is a big country with a glorious history, and even the United States won the War of Independence with the support of France.
The current NATO voice is the first to bear the brunt of the United States, followed by the United Kingdom, France is equivalent to the Sakuragi Corps except Sakuragi Hanamichi and Mito Yohei, etc...
The European integration involved by De Gaulle even included the Soviet Union. In the eyes of the French, the Soviet Union has always been a part of Europe. This is not the same thing as the Soviet Union in the eyes of Schrödinger in many European countries.
The drop of the hydrogen bomb this time may really be related to de Gaulle's determination to withdraw from NATO, but it is definitely a suitable excuse. If you have a foreign minister, you will definitely not be able to persuade him to come back. He has never been persuaded to come back in history, and it is probably not enough now.
After returning home, Pamela Mountbatten had changed into home clothes, prepared a meal and waited for her husband to come back. After listening to Alan Wilson's account, "The French are really difficult to deal with."
"Of course, they look down on us, just as we look down on them." Alan Wilson answered vaguely, but did not stop his job. "The Franco-Russian alliance has a history. To be honest, the last thing Europe wants is
It is precisely we who are close, neither the Germans nor the French, who have any deep hatred for the Soviet Union."
Except for the Napoleonic period, when France had a fight with the Russian Empire, the rest of the time France did not make any mistakes. On the contrary, when it came to containing Germany, France relied on the Russian Empire for a long time.
As for Germany, apart from the time when the head of state thought he had an advantage during my time, the relationship with the Slavs seemed to be okay at other times.
But the UK is different. Once Europe is happy, the UK as an island country will have nothing to play with, so the Cold War situation is not a bad thing for the UK.
"The Soviet Union is so powerful, but the French still dare to get close to it." Pamela Mountbatten shook her head in confusion, "Don't the French recognize the danger?"
"The Soviet Union is indeed too strong, but being too weak is not good." Alan Wilson had seen the weakest Russia in history, just a few decades later. In his opinion, a Russia that was too weak was not a good thing, just like
It’s the same with a certain big country now. It has nothing anyway, so what if it just confronts the United States?
After evaluating the three periods of the Slavs, Alan Wilson still believes that the Imperial Russian period was an acceptable time, not as strong as the Soviet Union, nor as weak as Russia a few decades later.
Of course, Alan Wilson does not believe that the so-called weakest in history is Russia's strength. One of the reasons why Russia is in that situation is because it is a defeated country in the Cold War, and the winner is naturally the United States.
In a unipolar world, Russia, which is equivalent to having been defeated once, actually has no place. It does not need R&D or production. It does not even have a place for Russia as a sweatshop.
In the process of Russia becoming a supplier of raw materials, one country plays a very important role: Germany. The Germans use the EU's eastward expansion to kill people with soft knives that are no less powerful than NATO's eastward expansion, and are even more harmful to Russia.
Because the EU itself will be equivalent to Germany's economic colonies in later generations, especially Eastern Europe.
After Germany defeated a country's industry in the EU, it began to dominate the next round of EU enlargement. In order to prevent Russia from rebounding, it tied up Russia with energy. But in essence, it was robbing Russia of its original market, and Russia was affected by the gold-dollar offensive.
Germany owes a large part of its industrial decline.
If Germany itself was not a defeated country and had many British and American troops stationed on its territory, this defeated country would have lost control long ago and might even bite the British and Americans back.
In ancient and modern battles, the pig's tactics have been successfully used by people again and again. When attacked, they will lean their butt against the wall so that you can't grab the tail. Finally, it is helpless. If it can't get its sharp teeth to give you a bite, it will die if you bite it.
Let go, this is used very well by the Germans at the economic level.
"I heard something, can it be true? Nyerere visited East Asia? He is not independent yet." Pamela Mountbatten asked her man if this was true.
"I asked him to go." Alan Wilson admitted straightforwardly, "That East African colony will be independent soon, at most next year."
"Dear, can you give me an explanation?" Pamela Mountbatten was a little confused, "That country is now supporting North Vietnam and fighting against the Americans."
"There is a railway that Nyerere wants to build, but we can't help. It's too difficult and the investment is too high." Alan Wilson replied flatly, "I let him try his luck."
