Northeastern Africa, also known as the Horn of Africa in a general sense, is also important to guard the strategic position along the Red Sea coast. The supreme authority has good intentions and smoothed out the war caused by non-existent oil, but it is still useless.
It helps to change the local environment. After all, the natural conditions in North Africa are incomparable with those in southern Africa.
Alan Wilson discussed the local situation with great interest, and believed that if Tutou's term was really determined to shrink, this would be a good opportunity for Britain to show its majesty as a great power.
Despite how tough Mrs. Thatcher usually seemed to be, when the time came for Britain to take action, her first thought was to avoid it, saying, "There are no British interests here."
"Oh ho." Alan Wilson looked at Mrs. Thatcher with a playful expression, "We must proceed from a position of strength and show Britain's tough attitude to the Soviet Union, haha..."
The Supreme Authority did not mean to mock the Iron Lady on purpose, but the above sentence was what Mrs. Thatcher often said publicly in her speeches, especially in the internal meetings of the Conservative Party. A similar speech is called a sonorous and powerful speech, and another is called a
No one else is around, and now this?
"Are you crazy? What if the Soviet Union is angered?" Mrs. Thatcher still couldn't make up her mind. "Since the map is going to shrink, we can just wait aside. There is no need to do anything risky."
"At this time, the map leader must know that if our toughest prime minister in recent years is like this now, he may regret being too soft to you." Alan Wilson replied unceremoniously, "It is a shame that Britain has been wronged for so many years.
With the old imperialist reputation, I think one day Malaya will become independent and you won’t have any reaction.”
The disappointment of the supreme authority was written on his face. It was almost the first time since Mrs. Thatcher became Prime Minister that he spoke so rudely, almost showing off the majesty of the head of the family.
Mrs. Thatcher's mind was also blank, and she listened with a dull expression as the Cabinet Secretary spat at her. She had never been so passive in her life. The last time she was so passive was the chairman of the campus conservative party. It took her a long time to come back to her senses, "
Whether you are done or not, you have to be brave."
"I'm sorry, but the cowardice shown by the Prime Minister is really inconsistent with the image of the Iron Lady. This is the first time I have discovered this in seven years." Alan Wilson apologized with a straight face, but the disappointment on his face was obviously still there.
Didn't disappear cleanly.
"I just wasn't mentally prepared for the moment." Mrs. Thatcher explained her conservative attitude and seemed to be trying to restore the image of the Iron Lady. She looked at the map of the northeastern corner of Africa and said, "After all, these are three countries with an area of two or three times.
Millions, of course I will be cautious."
Alan Wilson accepted this explanation first and replied, "There is still a basis for it. The conditions in Kenya are good, much better than those in neighboring Ethiopia. In fact, there is a big problem with the Soviet Union's industrial transplantation experience, and that is the Soviet Union's own resources.
Countries with rich and large territory and closer to the size of the Soviet Union are more adaptable to the Soviet development model. Many small countries also show acclimatization to the Soviet Union's aid."
According to a major country, it must be combined with the actual local situation. If Somalia, Ethiopia and Sudan were the same country, it would definitely not be possible. But since these three countries have received the same development guidance, then the problem is not big.
Britain can definitely show its imperialist iron fist in Africa.
"So where are you going to start?" Mrs. Thatcher asked looking at the map. The Prime Minister was convinced once again. It seems that the Cabinet Secretary has persuaded the Prime Minister more times than the entire Conservative Party.
"Ethiopia is a multi-ethnic country. Different ethnic groups are in different plates. It is not like the coast of Somalia, nor is it like Sudan where most of the Arabs are Arabs. The populations of the two major religions are not far apart. From a religious perspective and ethnic
The angle is a suitable object.”
Alan Wilson answered without thinking, and then introduced the detailed situation, "Mengistu killed Haile Selassie I, but the memory of the former king is still among ordinary people. We don't necessarily have to take any measures.
Military action is best if it can achieve its goal by shaping protest marches and applying pressure."
Mengistu was one of those leaders who claimed to be pro-Soviet, but in fact was not pro-Soviet. In fact, Mengistu was an Amhara nationalist. In order to win aid from the Soviet Union, he claimed to believe in socialism and formed several organizations.
He joined the Organizational Committee of the Ethiopian Labor People's Party and the Ethiopian Workers' Party, but he still brutally suppressed the socialist parties, the pro-China Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Party and the pro-Soviet All-Ethiopia Socialist Movement.
How can I say this? Similar things are very normal. Le Duan of Vietnam has purged foreign agents in his country, and North Korea has also done the same. Therefore, it is not incomprehensible to purge pro-Soviet and pro-China parties.
If this were the case, Ethiopia would still not be a good target for penetration, but God help, starting from the year Brezhnev died, Ethiopia encountered continuous famines that lasted as long as four years, with half a million people fleeing the famine.
The famine was triggered by drought, exacerbated by Mengistu's ban on agricultural trade, crackdowns on commercial activities, and widespread insecurity caused by civil war.
"The Mengistu government is actually a military government, and dissatisfaction has already existed." Alan Wilson said, "This is a good target. Let's use Kenya to see what these African Soviet Union countries are like.
How indestructible."
The famine in Ethiopia has been going on for several years and has been known to the whole world. The United States even held a charity concert to send the collected supplies to Ethiopia. Volunteers could use giant ships to transport the world's supplies to Ethiopia, but they could only
Can transport materials to the disaster area by carrying them on the shoulders and pulling them by hand.
The long-term civil war has seriously damaged Ethiopia's transportation network, and cars are nowhere to be found locally. If volunteers choose to transport their cars across the sea, they will be immediately confiscated by the military government, which is red-eyed by the civil war.

Business opportunities, oh no, should be combat opportunities.
At that time, Mengetus was surrounded by enemies from both sides, and these supplies became the strongest straw he could hold on to. He agreed that wherever his army attacked, these supplies would be escorted by them.
This was actually a good move by him to win people's hearts, making the victims think that the food was a gift from him. As long as the people stood on Mengetus's side, the people would have food to eat.
Now that we have reached this point, the UK should seize the opportunity to deal a furious blow to this regime that is barely supporting itself. If it fails, there is still the Libyan model to refer to. Britain and France destroyed Gaddafi's military inventory in three days.
Well, can't we still wait for the arrival of the US military?
In this world, because of the existence of the Kingdom of Libya, the US military has never been able to find an opportunity to demonstrate its military power and restore national confidence. If the British action does not go smoothly, they will discuss it with the United States.
Listening to Alan Wilson's arrangements for Reagan's role, Mrs. Thatcher couldn't help but be shocked. She had always praised Reagan, but Alan Wilson had always taken advantage of her, "Can he help?"
"Which president in the United States is not full of martial virtue? It is not enough for him to conduct a military operation against Grenada." Alan Wilson was full of confidence and believed that the success rate of this matter was high.
The American people also know about the famine in Ethiopia, otherwise there would be no charity concert.
Of course, we must first shape public opinion. Alan Wilson has done this many times, and there are ways to raise the temperature of famine in the United States. There is no need for the Prime Minister to worry.
This incident first allowed Kenya, which has a good relationship with the United Kingdom, to express its voice and express to the United Kingdom the plight of the Ethiopian people who fled to Kenya because of the famine, thereby creating public opinion.
"Mengertus must be a demon who kills women and children. When communicating with the United States, we can emphasize his pro-Soviet attributes, and in wider public opinion, we must emphasize his attributes of a military government. This is also
To avoid a Soviet reaction."
The mission was quickly sent out by Alan Wilson. In fact, the photos of famine have always existed, but they did not arouse much public opinion at first, and now is the time. The reason why it is time is because the world needs it at this time.
Britain's act of justice, the conscience of the empire.
In terms of the hegemony of public opinion and this field, with the British going full steam, its influence will soon affect the United States. Ethiopia, which has been suffering from famine for several years, has an unparalleled united front value. The real situation in Ethiopia has emerged.
It made headlines throughout the free world and also attracted the attention of Americans.
Public opinion is invisible, but the Soviet Union can fall on it if it is not careful, let alone a small African country. Ethiopia may not be small in Africa, but it is nothing in front of Britain.
At the United Nations meeting, there was also a special meeting on the humanitarian crisis in Ethiopia. The United Nations ambassadors from Britain, France and the United States took the stage one after another to describe the tragedy caused by this pro-Soviet country. In other words, the enthusiasm of the public opinion was also rising.
"Ronald, amnesty for illegal immigrants will cause the English culture in the United States to no longer be pure. We need to think about it carefully."
While casting bait on the United States, Alan Wilson, as a close friend of President Reagan who talked about everything, could not give up the opportunity to cause trouble for Reagan. For the sake of the status of the English language, the more Reagan refused to listen, the more he would say something.
"Allen was a good person before, but why is he so annoying now?" Reagan muttered dissatisfiedly to his wife Nancy. It was unreasonable that he was clearly helping the British on the Ethiopian issue, but he was still being obstructed by the British.
