France is unresolved in its internal affairs. None of Callahan's accusations are false. France is indeed much more concerned about leading Europe than Britain.
Attacks on the U.S. dollar are no longer common. The statement that the U.S. dollar is a tool for the United States to exploit the world originated from de Gaulle, the father of the Fifth Republic.
Who can't see that the United States doesn't like the Bretton Woods system? Isn't it just that the gold is tied up and the U.S.'s money issuance is restricted?
The UK does not object to the distribution of meat and soup between the US and Europe, but the problem is how much meat and how much soup we eat. Don't fool us with a currency like the Japanese yen, which all depends on how much benefit the US gives.
If the United States is not willing to return to the state of the dollar area, pound area, and franc area before World War II, then the United States did not join the war in vain. This is what the United States did when it participated in the war, and it will still be like this if it does not participate in the war. Then what is the point of participating in the war? It is really for justice.
A career and a high moral stance?
Therefore, developed countries can use floating exchange rate policies to achieve better internal and external economic balance and maintain the independence of their own monetary policies in the process of automatically adjusting the balance of payments. Developing countries, on the other hand, must maintain external balance at the expense of internal balance.
It is difficult to adjust the imbalance in the international balance of payments, and the independence of monetary policy is also greatly reduced.
Other developed countries want to become allies of the United States, and if Europe feels that this system can get more and is not satisfied, then the United States will have a huge headache.
Kissinger is definitely not willing to agree to the British conditions, but in comparison, France's conditions seem to be even more excessive, and they are really directly poaching the president.
"France's share should be appropriately reduced. Even if the Japanese yen does not even have 1%, it is not enough at the moment." Kissinger pondered for a moment and said that if the UK sided with the United States, the UK's share would not be a problem.
"Mr. Secretary of State, can the United States convince France?" Callahan asked Kissinger after hearing this. The latter shook his head and said, "What a coincidence, neither can the United Kingdom."
On another occasion, Alan Wilson was expressing goodwill towards Chirac on behalf of the UK and expressed his admiration for France's proposal to abolish the US veto power, but he also bluntly stated that the UK thought this was very difficult. "The entire European Community
It occupies 28% of the world's economic share, and the United States also accounts for 28%. But the United States is a country, and the European Community is not, at least for the time being. Japan still has an 8% share, and Japan is a U.S. military garrison.
A monopoly country, to be honest, if the United States really wants Japan to do anything, Japan has no room to resist."
Alan Wilson did not count Malaya, but even if he did, Malaya's economic aggregate is only one-quarter of Japan's because Malaya's population is less than one-quarter of Japan's. This is the same as that of Britain.
The ratio is almost the same as that in the United States. Even if the per capita ratio is the same, the extra population in the United States is not in vain.
After thirty years of hard work after the war, France's population finally surpassed that of the United Kingdom last year, still reaching a total population of 50 million, including French nationals in Algeria.
If more locals in Algeria can survive, maybe the population of France can increase faster, everyone understands.
Even if the United Kingdom, France, and Germany are combined, the population is not as large as that of the United States, and Italy is about the same. The United States is equivalent to the economic aggregate of the entire European Community. You know that France's idea of abolition of the United States' veto power is
