Chapter 1591: The British Civil Servant is not like a human king
"This matter still requires good communication between our two countries." Bush should adopt a more leadership attitude towards the United States, but still adopted an avoidance policy.
If it were just a proxy war, the United States would not dare to support Pakistan, but it would be afraid of causing a direct conflict with the Soviet Union. There are Soviet troops in Afghanistan, and the United States also has de facto military power in Pakistan. If the two countries
If there is a firefight between military personnel, the problem will be huge.
Of course, in normal times, the United States is still willing to demonstrate its world hegemony capabilities in front of some countries, but the best targets are countries such as Nicaragua, Grenada, and Panama.
Alan Wilson saw this coward like a mirror. One of the consequences of the Vietnam War was that Americans no longer believed that their own troops could win the war.
This is completely contrary to the current perception of British citizens. This does not mean that the British military strength now exceeds that of the United States. It is a fact that the military strength of the United States is greater than that of the United Kingdom. The spiritual atomic bomb is not necessary.
It's just that the citizens of the two countries are different in terms of mentality. Just like now, the Soviet people don't feel that their country has big problems. Last year, the West was still in August 1st.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Speaking of this issue, Bush Sr. also talked about the post-war situation in Argentina at this time. Galtieri's position must be unstable. As long as Argentina lands at Buenos Aires Airport, there will be war everywhere.
trauma.
The vast airport only has one main runway that is still usable. Around it, piles of broken aircraft wreckage are piled on the ground. A large piece of the roof of the tall airport building was burned off, and the walls were smoked black.
Whenever people step out of the cabin, a strong smell of gasoline hits their nostrils. There seems to be a thin layer of smoke in the air, and visibility is extremely poor. The spacious waiting room is crowded with people, most of whom are here to welcome people who have returned from war abroad.
relatives.
Alan Wilson was of course not interested in the masterpieces of the British army at all. He even suspected that Bush Sr. was referring to the British. In the end, it was Foreign Secretary Francis Spym who answered, "Dear Vice President, there is no war without death.
.British troops have exercised the utmost restraint."
The greatest display of restraint lies in the British dropping 10,000 tons of aerial bombs every day, destroying Argentina's livelihood facilities, and causing massive economic losses.
At present, it seems that Argentina will definitely not be able to repay the US$12 billion loan before the end of the year. However, the World Bank has put forward a more constructive plan and needs to carry out greater development in privatization reform.
.
In Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, because of the death of Brezhnev, who had led the country for nearly two decades, the Soviet people entered into mourning, no matter how the Soviet Union looked from other countries.
But during the Brezhnev period, the Slavs reached their highest international status since the birth of civilization, even overwhelming the United States in the past few years. Every Soviet citizen is full of pride.
There are friends of the Soviet Union all over the world. Compared with these Soviet friends, the delegations from the United Kingdom and the United States seem to be a little out of place. Especially Alan Wilson also heard that the mission of a certain major country was received by the Soviet Union with a high standard.
I was so angry that I wanted to jump out and yell no.
Even George H.W. Bush noticed the constipated expression of the British Cabinet Secretary-General, but to be honest, he was also unwilling to see an improvement in relations between the two countries.
"Countries that challenge authority cannot stay, otherwise Britain would not have fought two world wars with the Germans." Alan Wilson acted purely from instinct and never mixed with personal bias.
Bush turned his head and hoped that he was not overthinking. He always felt that when Alan Wilson mentioned the fate of Germany, the implication was that the United States was lucky to have Germans as scapegoats both times. "Now the leadership of Prime Minister Cole
Germany is already our ally, sir, don't dwell on past conflicts."
"Every time I think about Germany being divided and never being reunited, it makes me feel happy." Alan Wilson said with gratitude in his heart, "This is the only place where I resonate with the Soviet Union."
Alexeyev, who was inspecting the security work of the Kremlin and part of the security work of Moscow as a whole, did not know that his biological father was here again on such a solemn occasion.
Alan Wilson asked the diplomats around him to give the Soviet Culture Czar a gift, a new 1982 history textbook. Please accept it if it is not respectful.
Fortseva had been the Minister of Education of the Soviet Union, so she could definitely see the difference. Regarding the two countries, one a clear enemy and the other a potential enemy, Bush Sr. also expressed his views. The Vice President
As an ambassador to China, he believed that inducements were a safer approach, but he was not opposed to the British sowing discord.
The supreme authority has arranged a bunch of cultural itineraries for himself, and there is always an opportunity to talk to Fortseva during this itinerary. "It's so happy to see that Katya is still in good condition."
"The Cabinet Secretary is quite courageous. He applied for so many visits to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs during the state funeral. Does he not take the Soviets seriously? Perhaps he thinks that the victory in the Falklands War allowed Britain to find its past glory.
." Fortseva's calm answer was by no means sarcastic.
"I know in my heart that Britain is no longer the world's hegemon. The stage now belongs to you and the United States. The current situation is acceptable to the United Kingdom. The stronger the Soviet Union, the better the United States' attitude towards other countries, and vice versa.
, it is true that the triangle will be more stable. However, Britain’s national strength really cannot meet the standards of a third party unless we and France are the same country.”
If Britain and France were one country, taking the Newfoundland, Falkland Islands, Gibraltar, Malta, Cyprus, Rhodesia, Malaya and Hong Kong that the UK currently holds, plus mainland France plus Algeria, even if the whole
The victorious Empire on which the Sun Never Sets is incomparable, and I believe it can be on an equal footing with the United States and the Soviet Union.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Not really, isn't that Iron Lady very tough?" There was a trace of contempt in Fortseva's eyes, obviously she had no problem with Mrs. Thatcher.
I don’t like the Prime Minister who shoots random bombs.
"Mrs. Meir and Indira Gandhi are not more iron-fisted than her. If being tough internally is called an iron-fist, then is Mr. Chang not a god of war?"
Alan Wilson laughed loudly, and then nuzzled at Fortseva, "What ability does she have? I am determined to fight the Falkland War. I am determined to organize a 100,000 expeditionary force. According to her ideas, then
Just take back the Falkland Islands."
After revealing the mystery, Alan Wilson said, "If nothing else happens, the power of your country will fall into the hands of Andropov. You see, my vision is very accurate."
Fortseva was silent and was about to say something when she heard Alan Wilson say, "But the youngest person at your highest level of power, the guy with the map on his head, is just a complete loser. I think the Soviet Union
If you fall into his hands, you will not have a good life in the future."
"Have you ever seen him? Do you really think you can see through everything just by looking at him in London?"
Fortseva felt that the other party was destroying her years of trust. There was a reason for the other things, but Mikhail was a person who only entered the core of power in the past few years. Such cadres are everywhere in the Soviet Union. This may also be the case.
In the eyes of the British, do you really think you are the omnipotent Zero Zero Seven in the movie?
"If something really happened, remember to tell Alyosha to contact me." Alan Wilson did not explain, but directly gave instructions to Fortseva, and then said, "Take good care of your health, you are not a young cadre at this level, right?"
Andropov is not in good health, and Chernenko is also in poor condition. Anyway, your medical treatment is reimbursed by the public, so with your status, you don’t need to use it in vain. If I reform, the first thing I will do is to recuperate.
The property rights of the villa have been divided among you. What a pity, considering the huge gap between power and real interests, who dares to leave the leadership position easily? "
After all, he was a man of the same status as his husband, and his concern was definitely sincere. Fortseva did not say anything, and responded with a small nod, receiving the concern of supreme authority in her heart.
With full praise for Soviet culture, Alan Wilson returned to his own camp. His words were full of praise for the Soviet Union. Bush felt funny when he heard it, "Sir, are you serious?"
"Of course, praising culture is better than praising the Soviet Union's 65,000 tanks, 70,000 armored vehicles, 300 nuclear submarines, and more than 10,000 combat aircraft. Should I praise the Soviet Union's nearly 50,000 nuclear bombs?" Ai
Len Wilson had a look of embarrassment on his face. Now that the enemy is facing us, you, the United States, should not focus on harvesting Europe. It is really too ugly and some countries will vote for the Communists.
Brezhnev's funeral was held as scheduled, and Andropov, Dmitry Ustinov, Anatoly Alexandrov and a workers' representative gave speeches at the funeral.
Among the high-level Soviet officials present, there was also an inconspicuous figure, who was standing like a minion at this time. He had just been judged as unworthy of a human being in front of the cultural tsar.
The orchestra played the Soviet national anthem, the church bells also rang, and the Soviet troops present saluted Brezhnev in the tomb. The Soviet troops then held a military parade on Red Square.
The British and American delegations were incompatible with a group of Soviet dogleg countries. They left Moscow immediately after the funeral. The foreign minister returned directly to the country, and the cabinet secretary landed in Stockholm. Next, he planned to go to Bonn, Paris, and then
Return to London.
"Are you going to take away my pension money?" Greta Garbo looked at the uninvited guest in front of her and said rudely.
"Why do you think so? I do need some funds, but I will never let you lose." Alan Wilson said sincerely, "Don't you still believe me?"
Although he came to borrow money, he was as confident as the supreme authority. The Fanta company gave it to Lovisa himself. This time he went to Moscow to promote Fanta after entering the Iron Curtain. How could Garbo doubt him? This is so disturbing.
