v2 Chapter 1326: Anglo-German Financial Summit

"Tomorrow is the Anglo-German financial summit. I don't know if the Germans will agree to our conditions." Harold Wilson mentioned tomorrow's meeting. It seems that this is a very important financial summit. As the prime minister of a country, Harold Wilson was seldom this anxious.

"Absolutely no problem. Prime Minister." Alan Wilson expressed optimism. The so-called Anglo-German financial summit is of course important, because it involves the stability of the Bretton Woods system.

In the past two years, the French have always believed that the US dollar is a means for the United States to exploit the world, and European countries suffer. Of course, this is not wrong, and it is the fact.

Of course, the Bretton Woods system is still a gold standard system in essence. Under this system, Americans can't really exert much financial capacity. The Bretton Woods system has inherent contradictions that it cannot overcome.

As the main reserve currency, the US dollar leads to the contradiction between the supply of international liquidity and the credibility of the US dollar, which is the Triffin dilemma.

Another disadvantage that the French see is that this currency system endows the US dollar with hegemony. The United States can directly use the US dollar to make up for the balance of payments deficit, while other countries can only reduce imports. The United States actually indirectly manipulates the currency attacks of other countries. Policy.

Alan Wilson said in his heart that de Gaulle might not have thought that the United States would go further than the Bretton Woods system.

It also evolved into the method proposed by the United Kingdom in 1944 to link currencies with commodities. After the Bretton Woods system, the ability to interfere with other countries has not decreased but increased.

One of the Deutsche Regional Banks is operated by Bokina, which was given to the Dragoon sisters by Alan Wilson through the British occupation army. He naturally understands the purpose of tomorrow's meeting room.

Twenty years have passed since World War II, and Germany has already recovered from the devastation of the world war. Its economic aggregate slightly exceeds that of France, and the Deutsche Mark is also a major currency in Europe. Just counting its influence in Europe, it even exceeds France, and of course it is still far away from the pound.

When the French are frequently firing at the dollar, Britain should take the initiative to show the sincerity of the special relationship between Britain and the United States to help the United States stabilize the value of the dollar. Or make an action to stabilize the value of the dollar.

Tomorrow's Anglo-German financial summit is a financial summit aimed at stabilizing the Bretton Woods system. Its purpose is to keep the Germans from messing around with the French.

Britain once again stood on the opposite side of France. After Foreign Secretary Patrick Gordon Walker persuaded France not to withdraw from NATO in Paris, the summit was regarded by the French as an act of British retaliation.

In fact, the French misunderstood him. He still has a lady of the same status as his wife living in Paris. How could he take revenge on France? It's just such a gesture that the French can do whatever they like, and they can continue to attack the dollar if they want to attack the dollar. Who can control France?

Even without this Anglo-German financial summit, Germany has not followed France in the history of exchanging gold, and the expectations of the French for Germany would have been impossible to realize. That being the case, is it wrong for the UK to turn the non-existent help into a card to show the US what is wrong with the special relationship between the UK and the US?

Alan Wilson has already asked his wife to set up a table in Zurich and eat crabs with the French. This is enough to help, and in other respects, the special relationship between Britain and the United States must be adhered to.

It is not his style as the cabinet secretary to do good deeds without leaving his name. After leaving No. 10 Downing Street, Alan Wilson hangs out with the American ambassador. I have to say that Donald is old-hearted, and he was still visiting prostitutes in London some time ago? Of course, this is in line with the American style of being unable to control the crotch. Although Alan Wilson knew about this, he did not expose the other party.

During this meeting, he directly reassured Donald... the United States behind him, saying that the United Kingdom will definitely do its best to maintain the smooth operation of the Bretton Woods system, "If the franc becomes the world currency, won't that kill the United Kingdom?"

Donald was in awe. This reason is really impeccable, and he said affectionately, "At the critical moment, we are still a family who speak English."

Who the **** is a family with you? In a few decades, the United States may speak Spanish. Thinking of this, Alan Wilson still pretended to be a family and said, "Of course, we must not subvert , the current world order, no matter whether the challenger is France, the Soviet Union, or the Chinese, they should take their place honestly and give their best things. Oh, yes, I heard that the Spaniards are The parade requires compensation, and I think the French are also instigating it behind the scenes."

The hydrogen bomb that fell in the shallow sea area has been found in the large-scale investigation of the United States. Of course, the United States' attempt to hide the news secretly was not unexpectedly bankrupt.

This is no wonder others, who made the Americans suffer from persecution paranoia, thinking that the failure to find it was because the Soviets found it first, which led to the Soviet Union revealing the matter. This has absolutely nothing to do with Alan Wilson correcting the Soviet Union's guess, whether it was a nuclear leak or the hydrogen bomb did not explode.

The secretary-general of the cabinet does not need the thanks of the Americans. His level of dispelling the rumors this time is about the same as that of Shanghai, and it should be done for the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

"Uh, the country must be communicating with Madrid." When it came to the almost nuclear bombing of Spain, Donald's expression froze. In many cases, they sincerely maintain the special relationship between Britain and the United States, but they just can't be thanked, and their words are too unpleasant.

Just like now, the United Kingdom is holding this financial summit with Germany to counter France's attack on the dollar. The United States should thank the United Kingdom, but it has to mention the fact that the United States dropped the hydrogen bomb at this time.

"Communication is good, but the villagers in a small town are frightened, and I believe it won't take much money to settle it." Alan Wilson said with a high profile, "I don't believe that Franco dares to do anything to the U.S. military, The Nuremberg trials missed him, didn't they?"

After practicing the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, Alan Wilson ended his work today and went home to show his flexible moral bottom line in front of Pamela Mountbatten. It is time to attack the dollar or to attack it.

"I thought Whitehall created the summit to really protect the dollar." Pamela Mountbatten lamented her husband's acting skills and almost deceived herself.

"The U.S. dollar needs to be maintained, but you have to maintain gold." Alan Wilson grabbed his wife's little hand and said like a dog licking, "We have always followed the principle of safeguarding national interests, but we must make money. We must not let the French People take all the benefits, right? We should also get some necessary, reasonable, and insignificant benefits to the US gold reserves, such as hundreds of tons of gold. Anyway, the French are at the front to attract hatred, why not do it?"

"Now that this summit is coming out, can France achieve its goal by itself? Will the French back down?" Pamela Mountbatten asked her husband if this would frighten the French and lead to This time the criticism is loud and rainy?

"No, don't underestimate the determination of the French. Especially President de Gaulle, we just have different positions. Excluding the factor of different countries, he is no worse than our prime minister, especially Churchill." Alan Wilson signaled his wife to relax, Bray There are structural contradictions in the Ton Woods system, and crises can be delayed but not resolved.

Even in the 21st century, France is also a top-ranking gold reserve country. The European gold reserve countries are Germany, France and Italy. These countries do not believe in credit currency. Gold is more valuable than printed paper. , the combined gold reserves of the three countries are not smaller than the US gold reserves.

This time, the Anglo-German financial summit included all the five largest banks in the UK, as well as representatives from German banks including Deutsche Bank. The main discussion is to maintain the stability of the Bretton Woods system as mentioned before~lightnovelpub.net~, and resolutely curb the attempts of the French to mess up the international financial market.

In fact, Alan Wilson didn't expect to talk about anything. It was mainly for Americans to see. At critical times, blood is thicker than water, which is more effective, so that Americans can feel at ease in fighting in Southeast Asia.

On both sides of the financial summit, there are people who can give him the latest progress. On the British side, there is Pamela Mountbatten representing the Sarawak Development Bank, and on the German side, there is Pokina from the Deutsche Regional Bank. This can let Whitehall know The latest progress of this Anglo-German summit.

Alan Wilson told Washington that it is good to leave this matter to the United Kingdom, and the good days of the United States are yet to come.

The basic condition for Britain to win over Germany is that the Deutsche Bundesbank holds a large amount of U.S. dollar reserves. Since the 1950s, it has been one of the world's most important holders of gold reserves, second only to the United Kingdom and the United States.

The Cold War alliance with the United States was the most important international relationship of the Federal Republic of Germany. The Federal Republic of Germany pays billions of marks every year to maintain American garrisons and military installations. Core national interests determine that it is impossible to take any action to endanger the US dominance of the global monetary system.

This is different from France. The Federal Republic of Germany is on the front line of confrontation. Once the United States itself encounters a major problem, it will directly affect the national security of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Of course, these reasons are actually not important. Once the Germans find the benefits of attacking the US dollar, they will naturally attack. The key is not to be the first bird.

Alan Wilson actually feels that France's ally in attacking the US dollar should actually be the Soviet Union, not any of Britain and Germany. It is obviously not a good way to be the leader of this French-American gold dispute. This Anglo-German financial summit lasted for three days, and finally the German banking industry agreed, and what the British said made sense.
