The Polish Solidarity Union receives aid from the United States every year. In the past few years, it was one million U.S. dollars per year. Starting from this year, the amount of aid has increased to five million U.S. dollars. In terms of current purchasing power, this can be considered a small amount of money, but it will be compared with the upcoming
Compared to the spread of MLM networks, this is nothing.
It seems that the city on the hill still doesn’t understand the principle that teaching a man to fish is worse than teaching him to fish. He only knows how to give money, but Alan Wilson will teach the Polish Solidarity Union how to make a fortune.
At the same time, Alan Wilson also made two-pronged preparations. A corruption case broke out in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina at the right time, resulting in the involvement of 500 cadres in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The temporary political void gave Grace the opportunity to exploit every opportunity.
opportunity, and came directly to London to ask for his views on the situation in Yugoslavia.
"I don't have any opinion, but I hope there will never be another civil war in Yugoslavia. The disintegration of the Austro-Hungarian Empire will make the pursuit of peace in Europe more complicated after one stop."
Alan Wilson answered honestly, "The so-called national self-determination has never been advocated by any country in Europe, but you also know that the United States, which advocates national self-determination, is much more powerful than the United States 80 years ago. What I am most afraid of is
The question is whether a civil war in Yugoslavia will affect our relatives in Rhodesia, so you know what decision to make."
Grace nodded. The fact was obvious. He must firmly help Britain while preventing Yugoslavia from falling into civil war again.
Alan Wilson continued, "Because of your existence, maybe the Serbs don't dare to be too nationalistic, because you members of the Motherland Army are the real nationalists. I think because of your existence in Rhodesia,
It may cause some ethnic groups in Yugoslavia to resist the urge to promote hatred."
The direct descendants of the Ustashas and Chetniks are still alive. If the Croats and Sevillians send out nationalism to start a war, wouldn't it be okay for their legitimate heirs to come back and seize power?
It is not impossible. The number of Yugoslavs in Rhodesia is just smaller and the economic situation may be better. Who says there is no possibility of returning to Yugoslavia to seize power?
"Since Bosnia and Herzegovina has achieved great results, we are also happy to see that Yugoslavia and the United Kingdom will have a close relationship in the future."
Alan Wilson is quite optimistic about the situation in Yugoslavia. After all, his good deeds back then allowed damned people like Grace to survive until now and can now help Britain deal with the Yugoslavia problem.
Of course, Yugoslavia alone is not enough. With Heydrich dealing with Poland, he can also take care of Croatia.
In addition, Hepburn's son Sheen was also in Kiev at this time, taking charge of the newly established International Renaissance Foundation, which is currently the largest foundation in Ukraine.
In fact, it is very risky to do so now, because Ukraine is still under the leadership of Shcherbytsky, but Alan Wilson has no choice. There is a gap in national power between the United Kingdom and the United States. If it does not plan early, there is a high probability that it will not be able to compete at the same time.
It belongs to the United States, so it must be the first to take action when ordinary people dare not take action.
He was completely public-minded. After all, he was sending his own son out for this risky move, and he did not let anyone else take the risk. No one could blame him at this time.
Reagan, who only had the last six months of his time as president, was naturally not willing to express his toughness by attacking Grenada and dealing tough with Nicaragua. Unable to find a rival like Carlos Cardano, Reagan finally focused on Ethiopia.
, Alan Wilson saw that the news of the Ethiopian famine was not fading in the United States, and he knew that things would not be that simple.
Before visiting the Soviet Union, Reagan made up his mind to deal with an important country that had good relations with the Soviet Union to enhance the United States' self-confidence.
One Grenada is not enough. Ethiopia is very suitable. It has good relations with China and the Soviet Union. Its neighbors are all peace religion countries, but itself is a relatively majority Christian. It can be sure that it has poor relations with its surroundings, and there is a certain degree of
Diplomatic isolation.
When the operational code name for Operation Golden Canyon came out, Alan Wilson said sorry to Mengistu in his heart. It was his fault that Ethiopia had replaced Libya to assume the role of showing military strength for the United States. However, Ethiopia, with a population of 40 to 50 million people,
It is indeed more suitable for this role.
Anyway, he didn’t know how Libya, with a population of only 4 million, was so embarrassingly promoted by Reagan with his eyes closed. It was indeed stronger than Grenada, a country with a total population of 100,000, but was it used to show the power of the United States as a world hegemon?
Things are much better now, and Reagan's tough persona is more firmly established.
After receiving the order, the "Coral Sea" and "US" aircraft carrier formations immediately sailed to the coast of East Africa and entered combat positions. The "Coral Sea" and "US" aircraft carriers respectively entered the waters 100 kilometers east of Kenya.
As for the land-based air force, the US military assembled in Italy. Twenty-four F-111f fighter-bombers, each carrying more than 20,000 pounds of bombs, took off from the air force base in southern Italy. Each six aircraft formed a formation, and at the same time, five ef-111
The electronic warfare aircraft took off from the Israeli base, following the F-111f, and was responsible for the electronic interference mission.
The cluster passed through the Red Sea, Somalia, and finally appeared in the sky over Kenya. It made a big circle, went through three times of aerial refueling, and merged with two American aircraft carrier battle groups.
A total of more than 100 F-14 fighter jets and other support aircraft took off from the aircraft carriers "Coral Sea" and "America" and successfully rendezvoused with the Air Force fleet that had arrived from the long voyage.
So far, more than 150 aircraft have gathered over the waters of southeastern Ethiopia, including attack aircraft, fighter jets, fighter-bombers, electronic warfare aircraft, early warning aircraft, reconnaissance aircraft, anti-submarine aircraft, tankers, search and rescue helicopters and other support aircraft.
The air cluster of fifteen types of aircraft has achieved close coordination in the air.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The navy and air force have completed air coordination and everything is ready. Four ef-111 electronic warfare aircraft and fourteen ea-6b electronic warfare aircraft simultaneously cast strong interference
, when even the Ethiopian air defense missile guidance radar was blinded and radio communications were interrupted. At the same time, naval aviation carrier-based aircraft took the lead in launching missile attacks on the air defense positions.
The eleven-minute air strike began, targeting the official residence of Mengistu himself, and the sound of explosions was heard in Addis Ababa.
"Eleven minutes that changed the world." The US military's air raid on Ethiopia was praised by British newspapers. Although Mengistu himself was safe and sound, this did not delay the demonstration of the special relationship between Britain and the United States.
Reagan later held a brief press conference, stating that the United States would not let the motherland of mankind be in the hands of people like Mengistu, who ignored the famine in the country but still continued to be militaristic, and once again expressed concern about human rights in Ethiopia.
Under normal circumstances, Ethiopia is unlikely to appear among hot spots. The last time it was known to the world was because of the discovery of the oldest human remains of this era.
Archaeologist Donald Johnson and others discovered the first ancient human in a valley in Ethiopia, Africa, and named it Lucy. At first, they only found some scattered fossil fragments. After they pieced it together, they discovered
This is the head of an ancient human being. It is generally believed that this is the oldest human being, so Ethiopia has the name of the Mother of Humanity.
Reagan used the place where mankind originated and was controlled by rulers like Mengistu to demonstrate the justice of this military operation by the US military, saying that the United States must resolutely defend Ethiopia against widespread human rights issues that exist around the world.
This is an obvious example.
"By doing something like this before visiting the Soviet Union, you can really establish your character as not afraid of the Soviet Union." Alan Wilson returned home and expressed his views on Operation Golden Canyon.
"I don't know how many results there will be." Pamela Mountbatten was also curious. The United States had created such a big battle, which was obviously intentional.
"Including the radar position, five air defense positions were destroyed." Alan Wilson replied, "Don't be too little. The United States' military operations are very cautious. In fact, this kind of military operation does not depend on what public opinion says, but the results are there.
How much doesn’t really matter.”
The war phobia in the United States will not be cured until the Gulf War, but now it seems that no Saddam is a target for the United States. How about considering Iran? Alan Wilson also thought about it this way, if the Americans think that it is too strong
Just pretend he didn't say anything.
"What does the Prime Minister think?" Pamela Mountbatten asked Mrs. Thatcher what she thought. Alan Wilson shook his head and said, "What she thinks is not important. Maybe she thinks that having a private phone call with Reagan is to defend British interests, but what?
, who cares about a president who only has five months left in his term."
Half a month later, after observing the Soviet Union's reaction, Reagan officially started his visit to the Soviet Union. Mrs. Thatcher made two suggestions to the US leader: First, he should seize the opportunity for NATO to enter short-term missile negotiations.
The second is that when negotiating on strategic arms reductions between the United States and the Soviet Union, the United States should not act too hastily. President Reagan felt the same way.
Listening to Mrs. Thatcher believing that she played a key role in the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union, the corner of Alan Wilson's mouth almost became a Nike logo, "He only has five months left in office."
"Reagan will come back to London after his visit." Mrs. Thatcher reminded Alan Wilson that nothing should be said too early. At least the current US president and the British prime minister are still on the same page.
"The Prime Minister is right." Alan Wilson nodded. After President Reagan's visit to the Soviet Union, he immediately flew to London and informed Prime Minister Thatcher of his talks with Map Head.
Alan Wilson naturally didn't want to disturb this cherished scene. Mrs. Thatcher felt that with Reagan's support rate so high, the Republican Party would still win with a high probability, but she didn't know that Bush Sr. and Reagan were completely different.
