"The law of the dark forest?" Not only the host, but also the audience waiting beside the radio station murmured.

Alan Wilson immediately explained, which is a popular explanation of the Fermi paradox. Simply put, a civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is a good civilization or an evil civilization, and a civilization cannot judge whether another civilization thinks it is a good civilization or an evil civilization. civilization.

A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization will launch an attack on itself, and a civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is benevolent or malicious to itself.

A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization thinks it is benevolent or malicious, and a civilization cannot judge another civilization whether it judges itself to be kind or malicious towards it.

Thanks to Alan Wilson's conspiracy theory works in this life, he said the words of the car wheel in reverse.

Finally explained the law of the coastal forest clearly, "The danger of this crisis is that the United States and the Soviet Union do not communicate well, but in a sense, certain levels are not so dangerous."

"Sir Allen thinks, where is the non-dangerous place?" The host asked with great interest.

"What? This crisis actually has a clear profit-driven decision-making line and considerable military risk control. It is only more than ten years since the end of World War II. Although the United States and the Soviet Union have confronted each other and the atmosphere of war is strong, the decision-makers at all levels on both sides, They are all veterans of World War II, and they have the power to conquer the country. Although they do not lack the confidence and determination to solve problems by force, they also have the deepest understanding of the casualties caused by large-scale national wars. people, while the people are terrified of nuclear war, and their support and obedience to the management gives the decision makers strong execution power.”

"I believe that both Moscow and Washington are quite clear about the situation after the outbreak of nuclear war. From the perspective of a third party, whether it is Prime Minister Eden or French President Charles de Gaulle, they are also very clear about this."

"The British diplomatic mediation this time is to work tirelessly to clarify the bottom line of the two sides in an environment where the two countries have no communication channels. With this communication channel, the leaders of the two countries will naturally think carefully to avoid falling into their own troubles. Scaring myself of misjudgment."

Alan Wilson did not forget to flatter. Leaders in various countries have said that they are far-sighted. Without the cooperation and support of the people below, the first secretary of the president is a fart.

By the way, I praised the people of various countries for being very knowledgeable and generally not fighting the fire, which prevented the situation from going into danger.

It is also emphatically emphasized that the British citizens are calm and react like a general.

Anyway, things like speaking skills are equivalent to the coexistence of good birds choosing trees and loyal ministers not doing anything at the same time. As long as there are enough prerequisites, any country is unique.

Take the still undecided battle on the roof of the world as an example. Even if India suffered a crushing defeat, as long as you close your eyes and ignore the facts, there is still something to be said. For example, New Delhi is actually not far from the border, so in the war In the second half, India's defeat caused the shock in the capital.

In self-promotion, you can take advantage of New Delhi's proximity to the border, saying that Nehru wants the emperor to guard the gate! As for what the facts are, don't care what the facts are, it is the emperor guarding the gate of the country.

"I also agree that the United Kingdom has played an important role as a bridge this time." The host was obviously very satisfied with this answer, and then asked, "Sir Allen, what do you think of the United States' response this time?"

"Oh, this is quite a sharp question. Fortunately, I am not unfamiliar with the Kennedy family. It may be really difficult to answer you if you ask other people." Alan Wilson pondered for a while, and organized his words while thinking, "During this crisis, President Kennedy has shown a good overall view, which has to be admirable. He suppressed restlessness and looked at the problem calmly."

As Alan Wilson spoke, he suddenly raised Kennedy to another level, "As far as I personally think, although the first term has not yet ended, Kennedy is a great president who can stand shoulder to shoulder with President Roosevelt."

It is only more than ten years since the end of World War II. To say that a president can stand shoulder to shoulder with Roosevelt is a sky-high evaluation. It is by no means the metaphor of saying that a president can stand shoulder to shoulder with Reagan, who is trying to gain fame decades later.

He also believes that Kennedy must be very happy with this evaluation, but some people may not be happy.

At the end of the interview, Alan Wilson shook hands with the host to bid farewell, and left the BBC broadcasting hall.

Soon this radio station interview became the talk of all walks of life in London. The vast majority of people believed that Sir Allen, the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, made a point of connecting the United Kingdom and avoiding strategic misjudgments between the United States and the Soviet Union. Very well done, reflecting the still indispensable role of the British Empire in today's world.

Of course, there are other voices. The Daily Times stated that the root cause of the Cuban missile crisis is that Italy and Turkey became the missile bases of the United States, which aroused the strong reaction of the Soviet Union.

Regarding the good macro concept of European security issues, the United Kingdom still needs to retain its own independent nuclear weapons in order to continue to maintain its current detached position.

Those who don't know this kind of argument think it is the public opinion of France. In fact, when the Cuban missile crisis broke out, the de Gaulle government was very disgusted. The United States did not discuss with its allies, but went to war and put France in an embarrassing situation.

Although France is still on the side of the United States, at the same time the French have not stopped beeping for a moment. The voice of European autonomy is one after another in France, and it can be clearly seen in other countries.

Soon, the question and answer of the Permanent Undersecretary of the British Foreign Office who returned from Moscow first appeared in the newspapers and was reprinted by American newspapers across the Atlantic. Kennedy was very happy with the evaluation of the United Kingdom as the second Roosevelt. It also dissipated a lot.

"Roosevelt? He will never appear again..." At the same time, countless people stared at the newspaper and said to themselves.

President Kennedy, who is as great as Roosevelt, the only thing that is not happy now is that the Soviets are colluding with the United Kingdom and do not recognize all his contributions in the Cuban Missile Crisis. Britain and France.

Now he doesn't know if this is what the British say, or if the Soviets really think so, or if the two countries have discussed it. But he believes that he will have time to find out slowly in the future.

He even expected to have time to find out! If Alan Wilson knew that Kennedy thought so, he would definitely praise the second Roosevelt a few more words, and I believe Kennedy would be happy.

But at this time, he still has to listen to the teachings of the supreme authority and go to Norman Brooke's house as a guest, and has no time to care about the aftermath of the Cuban missile crisis after it has ended substantially.

Norman Brook received Alan Wilson, seated his deputy, brought a tall glass beer mug, and frowned. Then, with a sullen face, he came in arrogantly and brought in a large loaf of bread, and brought in a large basin with pride. The lid of the pot was opened, and it was steaming hot, and it could be seen that it contained clear broth with a few slices of bread floating on it.

Although it is not pleasant to look at in the heart, it can be used to fill the stomach. It was followed by slices of Scottish ham and fish fillets. Then another kind of porridge was served. Later, another minced meat with a lot of chili was served.

Obviously, the cabinet secretary's culinary skills belong to the average level of the British Empire, far inferior to his own carpentry skills.

The final course was a plate of raw miniature animals in a wicker cage. The method of this dish is to first surround a piece of cheese with twigs and thread, then make a hole in it, pour wine into the hole, and soon breed a large number of small insects. The cheese is not brought to the table until the worms have sufficiently rotted it, and only the twigs and threads keep it from breaking and scurrying about.

Alan Wilson drank his beer without changing his face, and kept a respectful distance from the last dish that was very characteristic of England and that he had never seen before. Maybe it was the original cuisine of the cabinet secretary, anyway, he had never seen it anywhere else.

How about some french fries, hash browns, etc. At this moment, he misses his wife Pamela Mountbatten, who has superb cooking skills and is far away in Perth, Australia.

"Alan, I'm going to retire after the New Year." Norman Brook said face to face after sitting down.

"Oh? Sir Norman, why are you in such a hurry?" Alan Wilson paused slightly with the hand holding the wine glass~lightnovelpub.net~ and then asked to stay, "This is the loss of the entire Whitehall, such a sensitive time, We all need your leadership to lead us into a turbulent future, if you are not here, we will only feel that the road ahead will be rough and anxious."

"Well said, only the Prime Minister is qualified to listen to what you say next time." Norman Brooke smiled, and said in a tone that I knew what **** you were going to do when you pouted your ass, "I am very concerned about my situation. I understand very well that my physical and mental state is far inferior to that of Edward at the same age. I never deny that I do value power more than him. He must think that after I became a cabinet secretary, the suppression of him made people feel uncomfortable, but This is Vanity Fair, and I can't help it."

Alan Wilson was silent, listening to Norman Brook's confession, and finally said, "I may not understand this mentality yet."

"You will understand later." Norman Brook's words made Alan Wilson puff up his chest involuntarily, just like the poorest patriot in the East End of London.

"My qualifications are actually not enough to take care of the cornerstone of the British Empire." Alan Wilson said modestly, but immediately changed the subject and did not give Norman Brook a chance to repent, "But since my colleagues need me, even if the road ahead is bumpy , and I will do my best.”
