"Saudi Arabia, at least until oil is replaced by other energy sources, is definitely a country with extremely rich cash reserves. It cannot be overemphasized."
Alan Wilson opened his mouth and explained to Arnold that it was necessary to have good relations with such a country. As for Poland, what kind of country is it? Does it have anything to offer? It produces coal. Who is short of coal except Latin American countries?
The theft of the blue diamond is the main culprit of this conflict between Saudi Arabia and Thailand. In this era, important places for Thais to work abroad include Saudi Arabia. There are 200,000 Thai workers working in Saudi Arabia. Jiang Kelai is the eldest son of Saudi King Fahd.
A worker in Prince Faisal's household.
He owed a huge gambling debt due to gambling, so he became obsessed with the prince's jewelry. One day, Jiang Kelai took advantage of the prince's family to go on vacation and stole a large amount of jewelry.
These stolen jewelry include a lot of gold, diamonds, gold watches, etc., including a super blue diamond weighing 50 carats. Because this blue diamond is extremely precious, this theft is also known as the "Blue Diamond Incident"
". After succeeding, Jiang Kelai smuggled the stolen jewelry back to Thailand.
Not long after, the Saudi prince discovered the theft from his home. With the assistance of the Thai police, Jiang Kelai was arrested and brought to justice. Most of the jewelry was still in his hands, and a small amount of the sold jewelry was also recovered. The jewelry was soon recovered.
He was sent back to Saudi Arabia, and Jiang Kelai was also sentenced. It seems that the theft case has been successfully solved with the help of the Thai police.
But things are not that simple. After Saudi Arabia received the jewelry, it was discovered that most of the returned jewelry were fakes, and the most precious blue diamond was missing.
This made the Saudi royal family very angry. In their view, it was a naked insult, and they issued a severe condemnation of Thailand.
What made the Saudis even more angry was that they discovered through some photos that the wife of a senior Thai police official was actually wearing a necklace that was almost the same as the one lost by the Saudi royal family. The Saudis suspected that the Thai police were acting on their own, so they no longer trusted them and appointed three people.
Diplomats and a Saudi businessman traveled to Thailand to investigate the matter.
Among the four people who have arrived in Thailand so far, three diplomats have died, and the businessmen are missing. When the eldest son of the current king encounters something like this, it is of course the UK's duty to come forward to help.
“Countries in Southeast Asia generally have poor government control and very mixed forces.”
Alan Wilson crossed the trail back and forth with his hands behind his back, "Of course, the Saudis are rich, and their national status is not as high as Thailand's. But they don't have military strength worth talking about. So the economic advice to Saudi Arabia is to immediately stop attacking Thailand.
If the work visa is not enough, you can also unite with the Gulf countries to impose an oil embargo on Thailand. I know that this is a period of low oil prices, and the Kingdom of Iraq was severely damaged in the Iran-Iraq war. This can also make the economy of the Kingdom of Iraq improve a little, even if it is
Even if the price of oil rises by one dollar, although it is still very low, it can be regarded as Britain taking care of the Kingdom of Iraq."
"In this way, the Iraqi royal family will thank us, so that when Thailand faces such a diplomatic threat, it will not dare to cover up the senior officials involved in the police system. Of course, this is not enough. The Gulf of Thailand is calm. I believe that if we send a battleship there, nothing will happen halfway.
If something goes wrong, Thailand will compensate the UK for its losses."
"Send a battleship over?" Arnold raised his eyebrows and said with a wry smile, "Father, are you making a fuss out of a molehill? This matter essentially has nothing to do with Britain."
"It's true that they are making a fuss out of a molehill. Precisely because this matter is not important, it is suitable for the UK to make a fuss out of a molehill. If it involves the Soviet Union and the mother country of Hong Kong, will I still assist them?"
Alan Wilson held his waist with both hands and said in a arrogant tone, "It is only suitable to send battleships if Thailand is not strong. Strong countries are close allies and economic and trade partners of the United Kingdom."
The logic is simply closed! Arnold cursed in his heart, listening to his father continue, "As long as it makes the Saudis happy and the person who was stolen is the eldest son of the king, obviously the prince's affairs are important. If Saudi Arabia needs it, this matter
In fact, Grace can also do it to ensure that the Saudi side is satisfied. Isn’t it just something that can be solved by a few murder cases?"
"I originally thought about going to Bangkok." Arnold said with a wry smile, "Now it seems that it is not necessary."
"You'd better not go to more dangerous places. There are still a lot of idiots in this world who can't be fooled. If something happens to you in a remote place like that, I can't save you even if I sink all the Thai people into the sea.
life."
Alan Wilson categorically rejected his son's adventurous idea, "What if people are not afraid of your identity? After all, Saudi diplomats have been killed."
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. After hearing Arnold's thoughts, the supreme authority must have a debate. This kind of thing can be left to others, but not done by yourself.
Although he himself still does micro-management at this age, this is different. The things he does involve the fate of one country after another, and he will retire soon, and he can put life and death aside. Arnold cannot do this.
The life of such a big boy is still very long.
"It is not shameful to bully the weak and fear the strong. Just like Thatcher's dismissal of civil servants, a total of 110,000 people were laid off, including 30,000 female civil servants."
Alan Wilson was not ashamed but proud of his explanation, "That is to say, there are not enough women, and I have to keep a quarter, otherwise I will send them all home to have children. Why should I do this? The simplest reason is
Women are easy to bully."
Specifically in this matter, Thailand is suitable for gunboat diplomacy. As long as the British turban-wearing friends are happy and willing to continue to develop harmonious relations with the United Kingdom, it will all be worth it.
"Just do it my way, and the Thais will definitely compromise. The best thing is to help the Kingdom of Iraq raise oil prices a little bit." After this round of communication, Alan Wilson has designed an expression for Arnold to communicate with the Saudi royal family.
On the road of deep friendship, he still has his own things to do, such as criticizing the Soviet Union.
The Tbilisi incident is now the most concerning thing in the free world. At the beginning, this movement was controllable. At least both the opposition forces in Georgia and the local government of Georgia did not want the situation to expand. And this movement,
Many times, things suddenly get out of control... As for why, we all understand.
So the out-of-control Georgians began to attack the local government of Tbilisi. The crazy crowd made the whole situation completely out of control.
Defense Minister General Yazov immediately ordered the Soviet Red Army paratroopers to immediately control the situation, and immediately instructed three Soviet Red Army units in Tbilisi to immediately enter a state of combat readiness.
At the same time, the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately dealt with the matter. Pugozhan, the Minister of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union, and the Deputy Minister in charge of emergencies immediately mobilized the special services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Soviet Union dispatched police forces and special forces to Tbilisi immediately.
As a result, a suppressive force composed of Soviet paratroopers, internal special service troops, and secret police special forces went to Tbilisi. After the Soviet Red Army and internal affairs troops arrived, a rapid clearance began... The excited Georgians and the police had a fierce argument
of contradictions.
In the end, a fierce confrontation broke out between the two sides. The Soviet internal affairs troops used tear gas, shields and other weapons to attack citizens. The frantic citizens also killed and injured people from the internal affairs troops.
Ross, who was sent to contact the CIA, followed his father's instructions and sang praises for the CIA's astonishing technique, and said that Britain and the United States could fully communicate on this matter so that they could defeat it as soon as possible.
This Cold War enemy.
As for the British side, while criticizing the Soviet Union and cursing Tutou, they are also singing praises for the Western European tour launched by Erich Honecker, the leader of the Democratic Republic of Germany. This is not contradictory. Tutou, a political star, has already
It's gone, but now Erich Honecker is the darling of the British, and he is the real reformer.
Alan Wilson is still investigating the industries in the GDR to see which ones are suitable to go into the hands of reliable people. Whether it goes into the hands of Pamela Mountbatten, the Woodpecker Group in France, or the Hellmann family in the Federal Republic of Germany, this can all be discussed.
, nothing is non-negotiable.
It is impossible to maintain the GDR forever. Neither Britain nor France has this obligation. But if we change the standard and stabilize the situation in GDR for one year, then we can think about it carefully. Britain is spreading
Privatization during Mrs. Chel's tenure lasted for nearly ten years in two terms. Even if the national enterprises of the GDR were constantly being acquired, they should still be able to withstand it for two years, not to mention that he only wanted the GDR to withstand it for one year.
.
"Dear, what industry in Germany are you interested in?" After all, Alan Wilson is just a civil servant and is not particularly keen on industry.
"Me?" Pamela Mountbatten said with a slight smile, "I'm interested in two car brands, BMW and Audi. If the Democratic Republic of Germany doesn't mind, I will purchase these two factories. The price offered is absolutely suitable."
"Wow, what a great idea." Alan Wilson's eyes lit up, "But it seems to conflict with the Land Rover Group's strategy. Why don't you reorganize a new company?"
The Democratic Republic of Germany also has BMW and Audi, but the BMW logo of the Democratic Republic of Germany is red and white, while the logo of the Federal Republic of Germany is blue and white. I want to focus on Audi. The ownership of BMW is still controversial in the two Germanys, because the brands are in court.
However, there is no dispute that Audi belongs to the GDR.
"If you acquire it, I will design a car model for you." Alan Wilson encouraged the richest woman and planned to design a classic model for the future Audi. No one in the world is better at copying shells than him.
You know, German cars occupy an important market in a large country and are better than their competitors, Japanese cars. Why not give Audi some share to the people?
He believes that if given a choice, a certain major country would still be willing to open a green line for the car brands of the Democratic Republic of Germany, rather than doing so to the capitalist Federal Republic of Germany.
