Harold Wilson is the newly appointed Foreign Secretary, and Alan Wilson is also the newly appointed Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For various reasons, this is the first time that the two people have an honest discussion on foreign policy. They had previously thought about deepening their understanding of each other.
occasion, but I didn’t expect it to start from Haiti, a place that has nothing to do with Britain.
Of course, the fate of Haiti has nothing to do with Britain. It is not a British colony and covers an area of less than 30,000 square kilometers. To the former empire on which the sun never sets, it is just a speck of dust under the vast starry sky, and it is not worth mentioning at all.
care.
This year, Haiti's long dark days have just begun, and the days of eating dirt are approaching step by step.
However, Alan Wilson is optimistic about the time bomb next to the United States. Tens of millions of people living in extreme poverty in the future will make Americans tremble when they see Haiti.
"However, the situation in Cuba in the Caribbean does worry Washington." Harold Wilson talked about the scene he saw when he visited Washington. "Dulles was worried about the pro-Soviet armed forces in Cuba.
"
"Minister, I think Americans may have misunderstood. Resisting the rule of a dictatorship does not necessarily have to do with the Soviet Union. I think Americans may be too nervous about the disturbances in their backyard. In this nervous state of mind, they may make
Wrong judgment.”
Alan Wilson also received intelligence from the Caribbean at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Cuban government forces, with the support of the U.S. Air Force, were encircling and suppressing the rebels. After a month of fierce fighting, the Cuban government forces shifted from an all-out attack to a focused offensive stage. During the deception,
Chang Gong of the island said that I am familiar with this scene, and the next stage should be to shift from comprehensive defense to focused defense.
It can be said that Alan Wilson is one of the people in the entire UK who knows the situation in Cuba best. This has little to do with being familiar with history. The reason is that the entire UK knows about it, but the government has never recognized the existence of a department. When he was still overseas
I worked as an agent in this department, that is, MI6.
MI6 is a foreign intelligence agency. From a national perspective, the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are standard foreign-related departments. In principle, MI6 is led by the Ministry of Defense, but in fact it is controlled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
It can be said that the current Deputy Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs cannot be said to be the direct boss of MI6, but he is also one of them.
In fact, Alan Wilson wants to know more about whether this famous institution has ever investigated him, especially in terms of ladies of the same status as his wife. There is no rush now, he will solve this problem when he has time.
Through public channels, after the Foreign Secretary's visit, although it helped Harold Wilson personally, it had no effect on the Labor Party's support rate. It can be seen that British voters have indeed entered a period of fatigue with the Labor government.
But even so, because Harold Wilson himself received a lot of help, Alan Wilson was still willing to help this foreign secretary to increase his political achievements.
OPEC is Alan Wilson's achievement for the Foreign Secretary. Of course, whether it can be achieved is not another matter.
It is impossible for the UK to establish a complete OPEC. It is true that the UK is an old-style imperialist, and it is true that London has been the world's financial center for a long time. However, the traitorous son of the United States has already fully set out to establish a complete OPEC.
threaten.
So his suggestion to Harold Wilson was to establish an OPEC within the framework of the imperial preferential system. And it should be under the guise of fair packaging. With Britain's remaining power in the Middle East, this was still possible.
The current remaining British forces in the Middle East include, but are not limited to, Aden, which is an important British military base in the Middle East.
Those who could help OPEC with this idea include Bahrain, Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and a series of emirates later known as the United Arab Emirates, which existed as a British protectorate.
The situation in Iran, the two largest countries in the Middle East, is still in a three-point world. After the war, Saudi Arabia has followed the lead of the United States. Although it will not offend the United Kingdom, this world gas station will not join OPEC established by the United Kingdom.
"The minister can ensure the security of European oil and bring together European countries and local people to talk. This reason is believed to be sufficient. Most countries in Europe are short of oil. Although oil has been discovered in the North Sea, the cost of extraction is actually higher than that in the Middle East." Alan Wilson
Follow the instructions and explain the great political achievements after success.
Adding together the above countries that are still influenced by Britain, Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates alone have oil reserves that even exceed those of Saudi Arabia. Britain's legacy of an empire on which the sun never sets is still quite rich.
"Abundant and cheap oil will become a powerful driving force for the development of Europe." Alan Wilson said this with a change of focus, "This is especially true for the United Kingdom. In fact, we provide certain benefits. For example, allowing these countries to establish themselves
Oil companies, and then come to London to list, this way, through financial means, they can bind each other's interests, and at the same time help the British Empire maintain its influence in the Middle East, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone."
"As for the Asia-Pacific market, Singapore's oil refining center is prepared for this. Building Singapore into the oil refining center of the Asia-Pacific will also help the stability and development of the Malayan colonies. In essence, the strategy of the Malayan colonies is to use development to bribe
The locals stand with us."
"This idea is really grand." Harold Wilson muttered for a moment, "It may even be interfered with by external forces."
Alan Wilson nodded, acknowledged the Foreign Secretary's concerns, and added, "Especially the United States. If it were before the war, we could expand the scope of this platform infinitely, include Saudi Arabia and Iran, and force these countries to only
Use pounds sterling to settle the purchase of oil. But it is not possible now. Senator Churchill said that we are British donkeys."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Harold Wilson was shocked, and followed the thoughts of the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to start thinking about the binding of OPEC and petro-sterling. His eyes became brighter and brighter, but then dimmed again.
, "It's a pity, we could only have done it if there had been no world war."
Obviously the Foreign Secretary also understands that sometimes it is not about finding the answer, but about finding the question. Who can find the key question? Harold Wilson has found the key question now.
Although the petro-sterling is wonderful, the current UK cannot do it. If it can integrate OPEC into the Imperial System of Preferences and strengthen its resistance to the US dollar, it will be considered a success for the UK at this stage.
Harold Wilson was also very concerned about this matter. Before he became Foreign Secretary, he used the word "Zurich's goblins" to describe Switzerland's ambition to challenge London's status as the European financial center.
The value of the pound was an issue on which the Foreign Secretary had previously been particularly concerned, but now that Alan Wilson had offered a solution to the problem, he could not help but care less.
If this thing can be done, Harold Wilson will truly become a giant within the Labor Party, the leader of a major faction, and then attack the position of party leader. After winning the election, he will become the Prime Minister. For a time, he will
Heartbeat.
Even just by looking at his expression, Alan Wilson can tell that the respected Foreign Secretary is getting a promotion and salary increase, becoming a general manager, becoming a CEO, marrying Bai Fumei, and reaching the pinnacle of his life. He is a little excited at this time.
among.
Harold Wilson's current prestige in the Labor Party is definitely not as good as that of Chancellor of the Exchequer Gaitske.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer is also the most important ministerial position besides the Prime Minister, but Harold Wilson is obviously considered to be the number one figure in the Labor Party, so it is normal for him to have a peep at artifacts.
After a long while, Harold Wilson said with a serious face, "This plan is really..."
"Challenging." Seeing that the minister was at a loss for words, Alan Wilson added.
Knowing that there is still more than a year before the general election, he feels that the respected Foreign Secretary definitely has no time to pay attention to trivial matters now. This matter alone is enough to keep Harold Wilson busy in the next year.
If his wife hadn't been busy talking to the Americans about iron ore recently, Alan Wilson would definitely have discussed with his wife about electric cars. Electric cars are by no means a new thing. The finished products had been produced as early as the beginning of the 20th century.
It appeared, but it didn’t compete with oil trucks.
A grand blueprint has been drawn up for the Foreign Secretary. Alan Wilson still has some diplomatic-level work schedules to formulate, such as the British-French cultural exchange group. Cultural exchanges in the entertainment industry are important. The reception of the British-German business delegation, everyone
It cannot be denied that hatred is a thing of the past, and Britain and Germany will continue to move forward hand in hand in the future.
It just so happened that Pamela Mountbatten was away, so it was the right time to welcome guests from the French and German industries. There was no need for a foreign secretary for such a trivial matter. He, as the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, could handle it.
The news that the Mountbatten Group, the world's iron ore giant, has once again discovered iron ore in Brazil, with quality and reserves far exceeding that of Australia, has caused a sensation in the American steel industry. Domestic construction in the United States is in full swing, and the demand for raw materials
Demand has reached a pretty dire point.
Of course, the United States is a country with no shortage of iron ore. Due to the distance, Australian iron ore is not necessarily cheaper than iron ore in the United States. But Brazil is different. After the United States learned about the location where the iron ore was discovered,
, immediately held a discussion and recognized the mining value of Brazilian iron ore, and didn't Mountbatten Group say that the quality reserves far exceed those of Western Australia's iron ore. Such a large industry giant will not lie.
Of course Pamela Mountbatten would not lie, but her husband would. Coincidentally, her husband was also one of the bosses of MI6.
