British Civil Servant

v1 Chapter 388: The pressure is all in America

"Oh, it turns out that there are some origins." Alan Wilson nodded. The foreign minister of Czechoslovakia, just like the provisional governments of Yugoslavia, Poland, France, Greece and other European countries before the war, set the place of exile in London.

This aspect reflects the international status of the British Empire before the war, but at this time, it makes people feel dejected. The two young people from the United States and the Soviet Union do not talk about martial arts and bully the British Empire, a late empire.

However, Alan Wilson knew in his heart that Czechoslovakia could not be pulled out of the Soviet Union by the UK, let alone Czechoslovakia, the UK had already ceded Greece and Turkey in the Near East.

Therefore, the other country he cares most about is Canada. As for Czechoslovakia, you Slavs will handle their own affairs. It is possible to speak for Czechoslovakia, but there is no need to care too much.

The embassy is indeed a magnificent building, but it is not habitable, it is just part of the ever-moving British diplomatic machine. Just like Czechoslovakia's status in the eyes of the UK!

When did Canada become fully independent? This is actually a long process. The British colonies in the Americas have rebellious sons like the United States, and there are places like Canada that want to pull the old father.

The British North America Act of 1867, which established Canada's self-governing status, is not within the legislative sovereignty conferred on Canada by the Westminster Act 1931; It is in the hands of Parliament, except that the British Parliament needs to obtain the request or consent of the Canadian Parliament to amend the law.

The flag of British Canada will still be used in 1965 according to history. It was not until 1982 that the United Kingdom agreed to allow Canada to maintain its allegiance to the United Kingdom at the insistence of the old Trudeau's negotiations with the British Royal Family and Parliament. , has his own constitutional system, diplomatic and military powers.

At this time, Canada can be considered to have obtained the national power that all countries should have.

In fact, among the countries born out of the British Dominion, the United States is an outlier by nature. The problem is that this outlier is a bit too strong. Australia, New Zealand and Canada all think of the United Kingdom, but they cannot be tied to the United States. strength compared.

So decades later, although the three countries are closer to the United Kingdom in spirit, they still follow the United States very honestly. But there are differences between Canada and New Zealand and Australia.

In fact, Canada and New Zealand are a group of countries, and Australia should be listed separately. Because of being in the southern hemisphere, surrounded by oceans, there are no strong enemies, which makes the national character of Australians a bit close to the United States. Although Australia is not as good as Canada in terms of economic aggregate and population, you can feel the momentum of Australia by comparing Sydney and Vancouver. and ambition.

This can also be seen from the development of the Australian Navy. Australians have similar personalities to Americans.

However, Australia has the momentum, but in fact, the conditions are far worse than the United States, and although Australia is far from the United Kingdom, it is not far from British Malaya, and it is not close to the United States.

As long as the UK can recover, it may still hold Australia back. Historically until the 1960s, Britain was still capable of commanding Australia and New Zealand, when Malaya faced an Indonesian invasion.

At that time, Britain, the suzerain, called Australia and New Zealand to go off together, so the armed forces supported by Indonesia were hanged and beaten, so the Indonesian paratroopers who could not bear to go off in person were hanged and beaten, and then Australia and New Zealand participated in the Vietnam War with a big hand He threw the group of people who had beaten Indonesia to Vietnam.

Alan Wilson now feels that Pamela Mountbatten can send an exploration team to Australia, but he doesn't know how many nobles Pamela Mountbatten has **** now, anyway, the more the better.

In the first few days of Paris, Alan Wilson had a more comfortable life, because the Americans had not yet arrived, and they were there now, and it was okay to pose.

Anyway, reading the newspaper to pass the time, Alan Wilson is not bored, and by the way finds a place to watch American cartoons, such as Popeye, Tom and Jerry, and the Three Little Pigs.

It’s still the number of episodes with a strong propaganda atmosphere, all of which are versions of the connotation of Japan and Germany. It was only a few years after the end of the World War, so this kind of cartoon screening can be regarded as politically correct.

He was watching cartoons in Paris, and when he had nothing to think about finding a French luxury car to drive, the Foreign Office in London was very busy. Secretly expressed interest in US aid.

"Minister Jan Masaryk said that if the UK can help Czechoslovakia, it is willing to negotiate with Moscow, open up trade with the UK, and import machinery from the UK, all of which can be discussed." Czechoslovakia ambassador to London , said when meeting the British Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevan.

"Comrade Tito is willing to let go of his previous hatred and jointly promote peace in Europe." These are the words of the Yugoslav ambassador.

As for Finland and Poland, they also came up with the attitude that I can talk about it, and I can also be patriotic. Said that it does not exclude the aftermath of the war with the help of the United States.

Alan Wilson, who was in the Paris embassy, ​​was quick to hear from London and felt something was wrong. Moscow will see these countries being influenced by the United States.

Among them, the attitude of Yugoslavia, Alan Wilson is not incomprehensible. Yugoslavia almost accepted the Marshall plan in the original history, and it is very independent. As for Poland and Czechoslovakia, the two countries have already negotiated, but it seems that they were finally blocked by Moscow. ?

As for Finland, Alan Wilson doesn't actually have the impression of involving the Marshall Plan, but during the Cold War, Finland did not seem to dare to go against the meaning of the Soviet Union, after all, Finland and the Soviet Union's neighbors.

Because it was too different from the history in Alan Wilson's mind, out of imperialist ethics, Alan Wilson expressed doubts about the attitudes of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Finland and Yugoslavia in his telegram back to London, and said that this would not be the case. Could it be a Moscow conspiracy?

For the sake of the British Empire, Alan Wilson, when he received a call from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs again, angrily denounced this timid behavior, which was a suspicion of the British Empire's international influence. The British Empire has relations with these countries. Who supported these countries against Germany in the world war?

In Poland and Czechoslovakia, there are many people from the former government in exile leading the country. As for Finland, it has always had doubts about the Soviet Union, but it dared not speak out.

At the same time, this is also a good opportunity to improve relations with Yugoslavia. Alan Wilson's current task is to maintain the influence of the British Empire as much as possible, instead of conspiracy theories about Moscow in his mind.

"The British Empire still has influence?" Alan Wilson, who was angrily reprimanded by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, could only admit his mistake.

But since this was what London meant, Alan Wilson could only do it, hiding the so-called conspiracy in his heart, thinking, "Did Philby leak the news? Shouldn't it make such a big difference? Or? Did my presence really change the course of freefall in Britain?"

If the latter is the best, who doesn't want the country they serve to become powerful?

Don't say that the special relationship between the UK and the US is just shouting slogans. Even if it is true, there is no better place for the UK to eat and drink spicy food.

In the following days, delegations from various countries arrived in Paris one after another, including Yugoslavia, Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Finland, which were supposed to be under the influence of the Soviet Union.

Historically, Poland and Czechoslovakia did participate in the Paris Conference, only to be stopped by Moscow at the last minute.

Although Yugoslavia did not come to Paris, the United States took the opportunity to win over after falling out with Moscow. Therefore, although Yugoslavia was not listed among the aid countries of the Marshall Plan in name, it was actually the treatment of aid countries.

As for Finland's Alan Wilson, he really can't find an excuse. Is it because of balanced diplomacy?

In any case, Alan Wilson, who has been put out by London for conspiracy theories, joins the French in welcoming these countries that are ready to surrender.

Both the Polish and Czechoslovak delegations were led by the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Polish Foreign Minister Stanislaw Skrzewski and Czechoslovakian Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk have arrived in Paris~www .lightnovelpub.net~ Since the Paris Peace Conference, there has not been such a grand political event in Paris. For a time, all countries have gathered in Paris, which has also aroused the key political heart in the hearts of French people.

Unlike the optimistic French, Alan Wilson is quite sympathetic to the fate of the two foreign ministers. Let’s not say anything else, Soviet Marshal Rokossovsky is a Polish. With this great god, how can Poland resist Ability, everything is not a word in Moscow.

On the surface, of course, Alan Wilson, like the French, hailed the friendships forged during the war.

Even if the Czechoslovakia betrayed at the Munich Conference is here, as long as the French are not embarrassed, the UK will not be embarrassed.

It was when he thought of the Munich Conference that Alan Wilson understood the difficulties of London. It is not necessary to do practical things, but he must not be stingy when he can talk.

Representatives from Finland, Poland, Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia have arrived in Paris, as well as Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, the United Kingdom, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, a total of nineteen countries. The delegation gathered in Paris, waiting for the arrival of the American delegation.
