v2 Chapter 1327: Unfortunate news

Of course it makes sense, the Germans are not stupid. A simple comparison between the United States and France in this round of confrontation is that the national power of the United States far exceeds that of France. If the United States can be brought down by a run on gold, then the world hegemony of the United States is too fragile up.

The Bretton Woods system does have weaknesses, but it is not a broken house. The French will collapse with a kick, and end the Bretton Woods system. Britain, France and Germany all have a share, but when to make a move is particular, Eurodollar The sharp increase in offshore dollar funding in the market has added to the growing turmoil in the U.S. dollar.

The rapid expansion of the number of Eurodollars has greatly expanded the financial instruments for currency transactions of multinational companies and investment companies. Such offshore currency transactions are unregulated, which further exacerbates the financial vulnerability of the United States and makes the United States more vulnerable to international financial shocks.

I understand the truth, but things cannot be judged so simply. France's economic aggregate is only 17% of that of the United States. Who would believe that France can win? The size of the British economy is 26% of that of the United States. Isn't the UK now honestly consolidating its imperial preferential system? The size of the UK economy is almost equal to the population ratio of the UK and the US.

Over the past 20 years, Alan Wilson has made a small contribution to the country. He dare not say how much he has contributed. Anyway, he is better than Churchill, the late former Prime Minister of the British Empire last year.

Holding the newspaper that Churchill's son, Conservative MP Randolph Churchill, had an accident in a traffic accident, Alan Wilson walked to the window and looked at the busy traffic outside, "For the unfortunate death of MP Churchill, all colleagues in the cabinet and Whitehall All very sad."

"Yeah, it's unfortunate news." Grace took a sip of his cigar and said with a relaxed face, "We all understand that it's a blessing among misfortunes. Drunken driving is not a good idea."

"That's right, so citizens still have to take warning. The definition of drunk driving should be a serious issue." Alan Wilson nodded with a smile, "In this way, Councilor Churchill won't die in vain, he Dead is very valuable."

"But having said that, what is the punishment standard for drunk driving here in the UK? Don't make my people feel too uncomfortable." Grace still has to protect his subordinates.

You can rest assured on this point, Alan Wilson promises that he will not turn his back on his long-term partner, "The driver's license will be revoked for one year. After all, no one wants such an unfortunate incident. By the way, how is Rhodesia recently?"

"It's not very good. The south is very chaotic now. The railway line we used to transport copper mines is always affected. Now it is borrowed from Mozambique. We also want to build a terminal on the Zambezi River bordering Mozambique to go to sea." Gray. Si said with a serious face, "As I said at the time, sooner or later black people will make trouble. Isn't that the case in Southern Rhodesia now? South Africa is also sooner or later. Don't think that there are more white people in South Africa. There are more black people there. many."

"Well, you people from the Balkans still understand." Alan Wilson admired the other party's foresight, and then said, "Maybe in a few years, there will be a railway between you and Nyerere."

"Is there such a plan in China?" Grace said in surprise, "I know that Nyerere has this idea, and he has asked many countries for help, but it seems that they have all been rejected.",

"Someone will always make a move, but in this case, it is inevitable that you will establish certain economic ties with the newly independent black country. I thought you would object." Alan Wilson chuckled, what Grace said just now, South Rhodesia and South Africa are doomed sooner or later.

"There are no black people in our royal territory. As long as they don't come over, it's not impossible to contact them. I remember your saying that distance creates beauty." Grace said nonchalantly, "It's okay to stay in your own country after independence. We can't live in peace. We don't want to kill all black people in Africa. There is enough land for us to live on now."

Alan Wilson still inevitably reminded that it is not your land, but the territory of the British royal family. It is best not to create illusions about such things.

In the end, Southern Rhodesia inevitably went to the old road in history, and began to compete for the dominance of Rhodesia between whites and blacks. However, for now, whites still have the upper hand. Like Yin Smith, he served in the British Army and participated in the Second World War, the most famous of which was the Rhodesian Special Air Service Squadron and the Selousian Reconnaissance Unit.

Not only did most of the members of these troops have participated in many combat operations in World War II and after the war, they have extremely rich experience in special operations, but also mastered complete military training methods, which can provide training for other troops without military experience, and their combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the blacks who resisted. armed.

Moreover, Southern Rhodesia is bordered by South Africa in the south, Mozambique controlled by Portugal in the east, and the Rhodesian royal territory where Grace is located in the north. The black armed forces in Southern Rhodesia are isolated from all sides. What about white people in West Asia.

However, the sporadic armed conflicts inevitably affected Grace and the others, because the minerals exported from Northern Rhodesia were exported through South Africa and had to pass through Southern Rhodesia. Now that Southern Rhodesia is unstable, it will definitely affect the interests of these Balkan remnants.

"By the way, I haven't seen my wife this time, so I haven't come back from Perth." Grace asked, shouldn't Pamela Mountbatten be staying in London at this time of year? Why didn't he see it? It was too much, and he helped kill Churchill's son.

"She has something to do recently. She's not in London." Alan Wilson hurriedly spoke to appease, "I went on a research trip to the European continent, and I won't be back in a few days."

In response to the Anglo-German financial summit a week ago, the French had already given the Banque de France's announcement that it intends to convert all new inflows of dollar reserves, as well as part of existing dollar reserves, into gold.

To reinforce his harsh criticism of US fiscal policy laissez-faire, President de Gaulle proposed two global monetary reform proposals, with the ambitious goal of strengthening the role of gold in the global monetary system. Removal of the US dollar and British pound as international reserve currencies - "gold has no nationality, is eternally and universally accepted."

Finance Minister Giscard d'Estaing reiterated France's claim. Durstein condemned the United States for enjoying the super hegemony of the dollar: the United States issued unlimited depreciating dollar bills, and made large-scale investments overseas this time, reaping huge benefits from it.

So far, the so-called Anglo-German financial summit has not frightened the French at all. The French still believe that France will never lose in the choice between the US dollar and gold.

The financial center of continental Europe is in Switzerland. Pamela Mountbatten has gone to Zurich. She is going to get what she deserves under the cover of the French. As for the main source of funds, it is through HSBC in Xiangjiang and Sarawak in Malaya. Laoyue Development Bank to operate.

It’s better for Grace not to know about this matter. Alan Wilson is also doing his best for Rhodesia. Of course, this time Grace is not in vain. He and three people representing different forces are here to accept the award. , for outstanding service to the Crown of Rhodesia.

The standard of the award was quite high. It was held at Buckingham Palace. Alan Wilson went over to catch the heat, and his sister-in-law also came here specially to add color to the award this time.

Everything seems to be happy and harmonious, except for the unfortunate death of Congressman Churchill due to drunk driving. Of course, the perpetrator who was frightened can't leave right now, and he has to wait until the limelight passes.

"What has Mr. Turing been up to lately?" Alan Wilson asked Her Royal Highness, the greatest scientist in modern Britain ~lightnovelpub.net~ the latest schedule in a business-like tone.

"Aren't you trapped by the work you arranged, what is the Royal Semiconductor Research Institute." Princess Margaret cast a blank glance at the supreme authority. In the eyes of others, this may be to protect her husband.

But both parties understand that the princess is secretly poking at the connotation of supreme authority and has greatly damaged her conscience. She arranged so many jobs for the princess's husband, and she replaced the most important jobs of others.

"The semiconductor industry is extremely important to the UK, and it involves economic development." Alan Wilson is righteous, and he is all for the future of the UK.

Europe has largely revolved around a war of words between the UK and France recently, with the UK slamming France for undermining the financial order of the free world and saying it would not stand idly by.

France accuses Britain of being a Trojan horse in Europe. France wins over Belgium, Italy, and Britain wins over Germany and Sweden, spouting spittle in Europe.

The United Kingdom patted its chest and assured the United States that it would never let the French jump too high when the United States was busy with the war. This made the United States a little relieved and began to concentrate on dealing with the Vietnam issue.

At the same time, new changes have also appeared on the Vietnam battlefield. The United States has reorganized the South Vietnamese army and the Korean army, and started a sweeping mode in areas close to North Vietnam. Trying to wipe out the troops infiltrated by North Vietnam. Although Britain did not participate in the war, it secretly sent military advisers to observe and accumulate combat experience to see if it could be used on Indonesia one day.

In addition to the military advisers in name, there are also British intelligence agencies stationed in South Vietnam. In addition to highlighting the special relationship between Britain and the United States, there are also individuals secretly investigating war crimes. The relationship between Britain and the United States is so good. Of course, it is not possible to investigate the atrocities of the US military, but to see if the second Korean devils are letting themselves go.
