The number of casualties on both sides is not expected to be announced for some time, but reconstruction can begin now. The oil-rich countries in the Persian Gulf can keep saying they want to help, and this opportunity cannot be missed.
Where there is demand, there will be economic development. This is what is called consumption upgrading. Of course, consumption upgrading is not a good thing.
In the future, some changes will occur in the United States. For example, credit cards will develop rapidly and the scope of loans will be expanded to many fields. These are all measures taken to overcome the economic crisis as soon as possible. But in the UK, Allen
Wilson still doesn't want that scenario to happen.
Therefore, if it is necessary to build big, build big. Don't despise the hard work of making money. If you really can't give up some benefits to the Malayan authorities, if Malaya does not agree, there are many people in the world who are willing to work hard to make money. In fact,
No, South Korea, Bangladeshis, especially Bangladeshis, must be very willing to shed blood and sweat for post-war reconstruction.
Human resources are not a problem at all for the current British Empire. If British India was still there, there would be no need to discuss it and they would just go to South Asia to catch immigrants.
After talking about reconstruction, Alan Wilson expressed his views on the oil crisis and discussed Britain's strategic positioning with Prime Minister Harold Wilson. He felt that the peak of colonial independence had been passed, at least.
The United States does not have too much energy and will definitely focus on internal adjustments now.
As for the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union is definitely a level stronger than it was twenty years ago. However, after twenty years, the Soviet Union's national power has increased but its influence on Europe has been weakening.
Of course, in the vast number of third world countries, the Soviet Union's intervention capabilities are still increasing. What Britain needs to be careful about is the penetration of Soviet armed forces into its territories.
"The events in Chile show that the Soviet Union's influence does not seem to be decreasing as you said." Harold Wilson disagreed with this. The Soviet Union had extended its hands to the Americas, which was the backyard of the United States.
"That is the United States' own problem. When I say that the Soviet Union's influence is declining, I mean its influence on developed regions." Alan Wilson explained, "This time the oil crisis will definitely cause economic difficulties for various countries, but it will not
On behalf of the Soviet Union, it can do something to the developed countries. Now that most of the colonies have become independent, Britain only needs to carry out key defense in the remaining places."
The two Whitehall leaders mainly discussed Britain's response to the economic crisis with Harold Wilson. Since the crisis naturally brings dangers and opportunities, Britain is currently on a good track. Harold Wilson also agrees.
This point expresses the importance of Whitehall's work to the smooth development of the UK.
"I'm glad the Prime Minister thinks so." Frank expressed his support for the Prime Minister's recognition. "The Ministry of National Defense's opinion is that this war has proved the importance of appropriate military strength. Even if the UK cannot keep pace with the United States and the Soviet Union, it must try to make a decisive victory."
Strength. With military backing, diplomatic work can be easily carried out. The good environment created by diplomatic work is of self-evident importance to economic development. Good economic development must be the merit of the ruling party. For Whitehall, we
You can also get a salary increase."
"Wage increases are just something incidental to economic development." Alan Wilson coughed softly. Although this is true, but to say it so straightforwardly? Gentlemen, don't you want to be decent?
The war is over, but Britain's diplomatic work is not yet over. The issue of the water source of the Jordan River that caused the war still needs to be resolved. If this issue is not resolved, Israel's survival will be a problem and war will continue. Moreover, according to international law, the Arab side really should not be involved in the war.
Work hard on water source issues.
There is also the International Congress of the Socialist Party specially created for Allende. Harold Wilson said that Allende has already nodded and will respond positively to the British invitation.
"I hope Allende will return to the embrace of the free world." After hearing this, Alan Wilson expressed his best wishes and hoped that the Chilean matter could be resolved well.
The problem in Chile is obviously a problem with the operation of the United States. If the United States still pretends to be like this outside the Americas, it has never even bothered to pretend in the Americas. In other places, it can implement 10%, but in the Americas it can even achieve 100%.
None of them can be implemented.
The result was that under high pressure, socialists in Latin America were treated as pro-Soviet parties. This was outrageous. London, the base of the socialists, should use its diplomatic influence this time.
Alan Wilson was willing to create opportunities for the Soviet Union to clean up the United States at the appropriate time, but he was not prepared to really move towards the route of the Cambridge Five. Chile had better pull back, even if it was towards Qin Muchu.
In short, although this tumultuous year is coming to an end, Britain's diplomatic work has just begun. This humble social instrument must continue to work hard. It is only halftime.
Because of the economic crisis caused by the oil crisis, the cost of oil has increased, and it has taken vigorous steps to visit European and American countries. The first is Japan, which has no local wool and can only rely on its labor force to develop its manufacturing industry.
Then came the United States, which theoretically would not be affected by the oil embargo, and finally arrived in Europe, which did not seem to be as resource-fragile as Japan and was much more equitably distributed than the United States.
Crude oil inventories have begun to reach worryingly low levels. The Arab crude oil embargo has triggered panic among the American public in purchasing gasoline. People from all walks of life have called for the implementation of a rationing system. Long queues of cars for refueling have become a common phenomenon on the streets.
Under pressure from the financial community, U.S. state governments have been forced to slash investment plans for roads, bridges, hospitals and schools to pay off bank debts, laying off tens of thousands of workers and starting to spread across America's busiest urban agglomerations.
become fragmented.
On the European continent, the impact of rising oil prices has also brought about the most terrifying scene since the "Great Depression".

Although the German government has formulated emergency regulations prohibiting driving on the road on weekends, as the country’s cost of imported oil has increased to an astonishing 1.7 billion marks, it is still
Nearly half a million people lost their jobs as a result.
The inflation rate once reached a frightening 8%, the transportation industry and agriculture suffered a devastating blow, and key industrial sectors such as steel, shipbuilding and chemicals were also in deep crisis.
Of course, the economic crisis caused by the oil crisis cannot only affect the developed industrial countries. The more vulnerable and backward countries will also pay a heavy price. The social regression of the industrial countries is nothing compared with the problems in the third world.
.
The Soviet Union, which was large enough and rich in resources, would certainly not be affected by the oil crisis and began to take an offensive posture in its confrontation with the United States. Just when most countries in the free world were in recession, a military mutiny occurred in Ethiopia, and the Soviet Union seized the opportunity to start
Making an impact on the East African Water Tower.
At this time, the army had emerged as a powerful political force. Lower-level officers established a series of committees to influence the army. Later, a "coordination committee" was established by the regular army, police and local forces.
The revolution led by military officers led by Haile Mariam Mengistu ended the Ethiopian monarchy.
Ethiopia turned away from the pro-American policy during the Haile Selassie period, eased relations with the Soviet Union, and expressed its welcome to the Soviet Union like neighboring Somalia. As for Ethiopia's other neighbor, North Sudan, the same tendency
The countries of the Soviet Union only maintained good relations with China and the Soviet Union.
Tanganyika and the United Republic of Malawi, led by Nyerere, are in a similar situation to North Sudan. They are also countries that lean towards the Eastern Bloc but remain equally friendly to China and the Soviet Union. Southern Africa is also at war, with Angola and Mozambique
The guerrillas in the Portuguese African colonies also received arms assistance from the Soviet Union.
Coupled with the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which the Soviet Union had never touched in history, the pro-Soviet countries in Africa have formed a considerable force.
In April 1975, North Vietnam captured Saigon after several months of fierce fighting and immediately announced the liberation of the country. A large number of senior South Vietnamese officials and refugees fled. Photos of Saigon's iron fist spread around the world. The South Vietnamese regime that the United States tried its best to preserve disappeared from the world.
.
The destruction of South Vietnam also marked the United States' defeat in the war in Southeast Asia. In the same month, the Cambodian Communist Party occupied Phnom Penh and liberated the entire country.
Starting in May, a large number of guerrillas appeared throughout Laos, and the existence of the Kingdom of Laos was already in jeopardy. Eventually, the Kingdom of Laos ended its history in 1975.
Harold Wilson launched his third general election at the beginning of this year. When various countries were in economic crisis due to the oil crisis, Harold Wilson won again and continued the Labor Party's ruling frenzy. The results of the British general election were also similar to
This is a signal that after two years of adaptation and adjustment, in the first quarter of 1975, the economies of various countries finally began to rebound.
However, compared with the rapid growth before the oil crisis, production rebounded slowly after the crisis, almost stagnating; at the same time, widespread inflation occurred during the crisis, and inflation continued to develop after the crisis, resulting in the coexistence of slow economic growth and severe inflation.
situation.
After the Conservative Party lost the election, Edward Heath announced that he would resign as leader. At the end of the year, the Conservative Party began the election of the party leader. Alan Wilson was very concerned about this internal election of the Conservative Party because he was familiar with both candidates.
, former Defense Secretary Profumo, and the other is former Education Secretary Margaret Thatcher.
The final results came out soon. The Conservative Party announced that former Education Secretary Margaret Thatcher defeated Profumo and became the new leader of the Conservative Party. She will lead the Conservative Party to continue to fight to regain power in the coming years.
