v1 Chapter 390: anti soviet vanguard wilson

The establishment of the European Common Market was also supported by the United States and was one of the conditions of the Marshall Plan.

If it is established at this time, the Federal Republic of Germany has not been established, and France has not recovered its vitality, then there is no doubt that the United Kingdom is the boss of the European Community and the future boss of the European Union.

This is Alan Wilson's idea, but although this is a good thing, it is not as easy as imagined.

The UK has always had a continental balance policy, and they are used to watching fires from the other side. The most recent experience of active involvement in European affairs was the First World War. As for World War II, it was a battle of German revenge, and it had nothing to do with whether the UK intervened in Europe.

Continental equilibrium in the UK, like the isolationist trend in the US, has never been a small number of supporters.

Just plunging headlong into leading Europe, in fact, for the UK, this determination is not easy.

Alan Wilson is actually not sure of convincing the London government to do so, so it is not impossible to lead Europe and seem to feel that it is a check and balance in Europe.

When Churchill came to power for the second time, he proposed a strategy called three-ring diplomacy, which divided British diplomacy into three parts: Europe, the Commonwealth and the United States. To maintain the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, military and interest alliances;

Second, to maintain relations with the major countries of the Commonwealth, especially Canada, Australia and New Zealand, which have the same language and culture as the United Kingdom. Third, maintain economic and military cooperation with EU countries, but at the same time maintain a certain distance.

As for other countries in the world, it is more difficult to form a military alliance unless they have a common enemy or a considerable common interest. But there are already enough small partners for such a three-ring construction.

According to Churchill's idea, as Britain and the United States approach, the United States will form a siphon effect on Britain. The fate of Britain should be similar to history.

Therefore, the three-ring diplomacy is not desirable, and a diplomatic strategy should be changed. At least for now, the United States supports European integration, and actually supports the United Kingdom in particular.

But historically, because of the traditional thinking of continental equilibrium, the United States finally rejected the proposal of the United States to support the British integration of Europe. Three-ring diplomacy was adopted, but in the end the Commonwealth followed the United States.

Now on a similar option, Alan Wilson already knows the consequences of three-ring diplomacy. Naturally, it cannot be adopted. Since the United States supports the United Kingdom to integrate Europe, the United Kingdom should integrate Europe.

For the past two years, whether by chance or not, his two-wing plan has at least worked well.

A plunge into Europe, then, would be easily attacked by supporters of the continental balance, as well as by opposition parties.

Then join the British Commonwealth, follow the previous relationship between the German British occupation and British India, and carry out an expanded version of the two wings.

The attitude is not static. Just like when Prime Minister Attlee first came to power, the United States had already called for assistance to Europe. If it started at that time, Prime Minister Attlee would have shouted that the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States was unbreakable.

But when Prime Minister Attlee first came to power, it was the United States that cut off aid and told him that Britain had so many colonies that it would have no problem recovering from the war.

As for France in 1945, there was no hope for the aid of the United States at all, and until the initial contact, it still sang the opposite from time to time, which was very different from the attitude of the United States and the United States at that time.

Now that the time is approaching 1948, Britain has returned to pre-war levels except for its foreign debt.

There has been a change in attitude towards the Marshall Plan, and there is still hope, but even if it is not given, it seems that there is no loss.

Without US dollar aid, Britain could use Germany's British-occupied territories to recover. The attitude of France is not as tough as in the first two years, and it is looking forward to the assistance of the United States.

This is the difference between the UK and France at present. Alan Wilson found the common position that Pierre wanted to achieve. It is actually very simple to sum up. Establish a principle of cents to ensure that the UK and France occupy the largest share.

There are two principles of dividing money: the United States has more allies than neutrals, more neutrals than the Axis, and countries with more people get more than countries with fewer people.

Britain and France are both allies of the United States, and although Italy and Germany are not less populated than Britain and France, the two countries are Axis powers.

As for the UK and France, the population of France is 40 million and the population of the UK is 49 million. There are almost ten million more people than France, so taking a little more is not too much.

Alan Wilson speaks from the data, and does not mention the relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States blood is thicker than water.

Pierre nodded incessantly, saying that this common position is very fair, then in return for Britain's support for France to enjoy the resources of the Saar region, France can take the initiative to propose that the four Yugoslav countries affected by the Soviet Union be kicked out of the aid list.

"In fact, this is also what the Americans mean. Only fools believe that the United States will use dollars to speed up the recovery of the Soviet Union." Alan Wilson sighed and said, "The less their aid, the more our aid."

"Actually, the most important thing in the common market is a European army." Pierre suddenly said such a sentence.

"Uh, we already have a foreign foreign legion." Alan Wilson pretended not to understand the other party's words, and used the Brussels Treaty Organization's foreign intervention army as a prevarication.

It is so difficult to achieve consensus in the economy, how can it be so easy in the political and military fields?

And to tell the truth, with the armies of Britain and France, excluding the military support of the United States and the confrontation with the Soviet Union? The United Kingdom must first maintain the existence of the Royal Navy. It has no energy on the army, and expects France to assume the main obligation to confront the Soviet Union? Dreams have everything...

Even if Germany does not accept France's recovery, even if it is assumed that Germany has recovered, plus Germany's military strength, it seems that it will not be able to fight against the Soviet Union, and it is impossible to confront the Soviet Union without the United States.

Alan Wilson was not naive enough to think that when Britain and France recovered, they would be able to compete with the Soviet Union.

Even if the United States is really excluded, it will become that Britain and France are beaten by the United States and the Soviet Union at any time.

He knew that the idea of ​​the European Army was definitely not Pierre's personal gaffe, and it must have had a voice within the French government. In fact, the concept of the European Army did not appear in the 21st century.

The voice of the European Army has appeared in Europe at least twice. The first time was the European Army advocated by France in the early postwar period.

In order to stop the expansion of American influence in Europe, the second time was in the early 1990s after the end of the Cold War, and a force of 50,000 people had been established.

It was unsuccessful both times, not to mention that Britain and France have not recovered yet. It is better to wait for the American delegation to arrive in glorious Paris.

It is of course best if NATO can be established, but the current situation is not optimistic. Confining the U.S. military to Germany alone is a victory, and sacrificing Germany to prevent other European countries from being kidnapped by the U.S. is acceptable.

If you can't do this, you will sacrifice together with France. Anyway, when De Gaulle comes to power, the Americans will be driven away. This villain is more suitable for the French than the British.

After some exchange of interests, Alan Wilson, who returned to the embassy, ​​sent a telegram to London, indicating that he had reached a consensus with France and determined the position of common begging. Under these two premises, the UK will definitely get the biggest share.

On December 13, the US delegation arrived in Paris. The representatives of 19 countries waited at the airport. When the US delegation appeared, the representatives from all countries cheered in unison.

"It's just a group of beggars, as if there is some kind of intimacy." Alan Wilson pouted at Daniel next to him.

Daniel was about to nod his head when a gust of wind drifted past Alan Wilson, who had already disappeared in front of his eyes. The next moment Alan Wilson embodied the style of the British Empire, shaking hands with the arriving Americans, and kept talking about the special relationship between Britain and the United States, and what blood was thicker than Water, friendship made of blood, and more...

When other countries propose close relations, they are kneeling and begging for food. Our British Empire is different. Britain and the United States really have a special relationship.

At this point, the American delegation finally arrived late in the glorious Paris, to deal with these stinky beggars with the attitude of the savior.

At the first meeting held on the same day, the Americans packed the meaning of this aid with their consistent moral ideals~lightnovelpub.net~ At the same time, they expressed their hope that the Soviet Union would not be stingy and could attend. Let's sit down and have a good talk. Let's restore prosperity in Europe together.

After this false lie was over, it was time for Britain and France. The French representative, Pierre, stood up directly and angrily denounced the Soviet Union's destruction of peace in Europe. If the Soviet Union did not stop its hostile behavior, such as its expansionary policy in the Near East , France will firmly oppose the Soviet Union's accession.

As soon as Pierre's voice fell, Alan Wilson stood up, and after signaling to the representatives of the various countries present, he walked to the podium and gave a speech at this meeting, "From any point of view, the current Soviet Union does not meet the The definition of the free world, the spirit of protecting the civilized world, is more valuable than the so-called money. The Soviet Union must release the supervision of the Eastern European countries, and under the supervision of the United Nations, let the Eastern European countries regain their freedom. The flood of Soviet ideas and the European countries have suffered greatly from the violence that has come, and it is pointless to talk about cooperation until this trend of thought is contained."

"To this end, the UK and France have the same attitude. We must open up the market unconditionally, carry out free trade and political reform, otherwise the UK will oppose any similar country's assistance."

Alan Wilson's voice echoed in the hall and entered the ears of representatives of various countries. Finland, Yugoslavia, Poland, and Czechoslovakia all changed color after hearing the words, and the hall became noisy.
