The whole of Argentina is immersed in the sea of ​​joy of regaining its inherent territory and showing off the country's prestige. This is far more intoxicating to the Argentines than the good news of winning the World Cup four years ago.

The economy is in a downturn, and the people's lives are covered by this huge shot of stimulant. Galtieri's opposition disappeared in an instant. .

This is completely different from the other country involved. Perhaps the only person in the UK applauding Galtieri is Alan Wilson himself.

As for Mrs. Thatcher's meeting in the House of Commons, there is no time for Alan Wilson to perform as she wished and applaud Argentina for taking a crucial step. Britain's long-term laissez-faire has finally paid off.

The reason why I say this is because the Falkland Islands have a long history, and it is not as if Argentina could not bear it suddenly when it arrived in 1982. Argentina has used military force to test Britain for seven years, starting from 1976. Since February 2010, Argentine warships have opened fire on British scientific research ships near Port Stanley, and the British responded by sending Royal Navy frigates to **** them.

In March, Argentina sent troops to occupy the South Orkney Islands under British control. Britain responded with diplomatic protests and kept it secret at home. The next year, Argentina cut off the oil supply to Port Stanley. The British response was to send a submarine to watch and keep it a secret domestically.

In the second half of 1977, the Argentine Navy began to declare law enforcement power in the waters of the Falkland Islands and seized a large number of third-country fishing boats. The British response was to continue to send submarines to watch and keep it secret at home.

In the 1980s, Margaret Thatcher had already come to power, Argentine National Petroleum Corporation blatantly engaged in bidding for offshore oil projects in the Falkland Islands waters, and the winning bid was the Soviet Union. The Argentine Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an ultimatum to the United Kingdom through official channels, stating that the issue of the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands could not be delayed any longer.

After such a long period of British feigning death, facing this situation, it is understandable for Galtieri to think that the inherent territory can be recovered. Britain is acquiescing to Argentina's move.

But this time it was different. The entire House of Commons was full of voices, and members of the House of Commons were fiercely discussing the issue of the Falkland Islands. As the incumbent Prime Minister, Mrs. Thatcher certainly endured criticism from the government and the opposition.

It is believed that the current government has an unshirkable responsibility for the evolution of the Falkland Islands problem into what it is now.

This is of course slander, just like the Argentine military government began to test Britain with armed demonstrations as early as 1976, before Galtieri came to power at that time. Similarly, Britain's long-term laissez-faire was not caused by Mrs. Thatcher herself. It also involved different prime ministers. It is unreasonable to criticize Mrs. Thatcher in this way.

In the long debate, mutual accusations have dominated the mainstream. It is certain that the Labor Party wants to embarrass the Conservative Party, but it still needs to be discussed for a war on an island 10,000 kilometers away.

As a result of the discussion, all parties quickly came up with a consensus. Members were furious and clamored that there was "no choice" but to send troops. Even leaders and members of the opposition Labor Party were outraged and demanded that the Afghan army be driven out of the Falklands. islands. There was rare unanimity in the British Parliament.

At the same time, the opposition parties also demanded that the Thatcher government be held accountable. The ruling party is also not at peace, and the backbench members regard the foreign secretary as the object of criticism and the target of attack.

However, the debate on this day did not come up with a resolution to go to war. Obviously, Mrs. Thatcher still wants to hold a cabinet meeting to discuss and discuss. Unlike the national jubilation in Argentina, the Falkland Islands are not as good as one football game. The mobilization of public opinion has not yet begun, and the UK is still in a state of tranquility.

"Margaret, it's gotten to where it is now, can't you be patient?" Alan Wilson came to No. 10 Downing Street, met Mrs. Thatcher who had been criticized for a day, and took out a document. It is a document about the conscription in Nepal, and there are two items notifying the assembly of armed forces in the Rhodesian royal domain.

Of course, this is not all. As the most important overseas territory of the United Kingdom, Malaya is definitely impossible to be ignored. However, Malaya’s goals are too big. Only when the House of Commons comes up with specific decisions can Malaya be moved. Now is not the time.

Rhodesia is a place with a very strong military color. Those Slavic immigrants themselves were the defeated who escaped from Europe by chance. Rhodesia is still inland, surrounded by black countries in all directions, and the armed tradition has always been preserved. Want to Conscription can be done right away.

Don't Grace take care of his son-in-law? You must know that Alan Wilson has resisted the interference of the richest woman and has called Colonel Albert back. The richest woman can't convince him of this, just wait this time When the war is over, it is logical to become a general.

As for the Kingdom of Nepal, the locals are an overseas regiment that the UK relies heavily on. After the independence of British India, the UK also retained a conscription agency in Kathmandu to serve the UK.

No one cares about these two places in normal times. Military mobilization can be carried out first, and the localities can be prepared privately through institutions, and they can start immediately after London gives an order.

Without expressing the resolution to go to war in the House of Commons, Mrs. Thatcher took the initiative to ask, "Then what should we do now?"

"Let the Americans exert their diplomatic influence first." Alan Wilson said in a firm tone, "Always give Washington time to fight for peace, otherwise it will damage the special relationship between Britain and the United States."

The United States will definitely stand on the side of the United Kingdom to a limited extent, because the move by the United Kingdom to drop bombs in the Americas will help the United States raise interest rates and harvest Latin America. It is not aimed at Argentina. That is definitely a misunderstanding. The entire American country is in the United States. Within the scope of the harvest, the US dollar settlement ratio in the Americas is 95%.

The situation in the entire Latin American countries is similar, Argentina is not prominent among them, and Brazil is the third largest debtor country in the world, with a total national debt of 90 billion US dollars. Also facing the depletion of foreign exchange reserves but huge debts are Mexico and other countries. Alan Wilson believes that the United States is now ready to carry out debt restructuring for these countries.

It is nothing more than that when the old debt of a Latin American country is due, the creditor immediately provides the country with a new loan to repay the old debt, that is, in fact, the debt is postponed indefinitely. In exchange, the Latin American country must suspend the original debt. Economic planning, spending cuts, and deficit reduction, which eased the debt problems on paper, destroyed the economic conditions of these countries, leading to huge capital outflows into creditor countries.

The destruction of the economic environment has led to further deterioration of the financial environment of these countries, and they are unable to repay the next batch of due debts again. Therefore, they can only follow the old rules and borrow new ones to repay the old ones. This is repeated, and finally forms a debt crisis, capital outflow, economic crisis, financial crisis, and debt crisis. infinite vicious circle.

As a result of the discussion, Margaret Thatcher immediately called US President Reagan and Secretary of State Haig, asking them to mediate and exert influence on the chairman of the Afghan ruling committee, General Galtieri.

This will only make General Galtieri think that the United Kingdom will not react violently, so he can sit back and relax. So General Galtieri made a not difficult decision to inspect the Falkland Islands that Argentina calls as a national hero. The successful national hero experience has been successfully renewed for two days.

However, during these two days, in Kathmandu, the capital of the Kingdom of Nepal, the British conscription office was crowded with people. It was not the conscription season that the British conscription attracted Nepalese youths who served as soldiers to support their families.

In Rhodesia, more than 5,000 young and middle-aged people were successfully assembled, which indicates that the United Kingdom will definitely not forget about it. It is only counting on Argentina, a Latin American country, to notice that it is indeed difficult for others to take action in this regard.

After being criticized for two days, Mrs. Thatcher finally came to the House of Commons with her staunch supporter, the Secretary-General of the Cabinet, to discuss the issue of the Falkland Islands with all parties. The opposition party's accusations are not passive like they were two days ago, and they immediately stated that they will respond resolutely.

At a critical moment in the debate, Alan Wilson defended Mrs Thatcher's administration, "From an international point of view ~lightnovelpub.net~ this is a difficult decision. The Argentines may have their reasons, but many The country always has a kind of idea that people can't understand, that is, if Britain leaves, the land will be yours for granted. We don't talk about the right and wrong of this idea, but at least we should not trample on the dignity of the United Kingdom On the ground? Now this is no longer a purely territorial dispute, British citizens also have dignity."

"What the UK gives you is yours. If the UK doesn't give it to you, you can't take it!" Facing more than 600 congressmen, Alan Wilson threatened loudly, "Argentina should withdraw from the Falkland Islands immediately and unconditionally. Those involved in making dangerous risky decisions, the Argentine side must respond within eight hours, and that's it."

The person involved in making the dangerous risky decision, of course, was Galtieri himself, and it seemed a little too much to put the head of Argentina in prison before the war started.

But this is also the purpose. The principle of the unconditional surrender of the Axis powers is the same when the United States entered the war.

The purpose of the United Kingdom now is to block Galtieri's retreat, so that Galtieri will not be able to avoid prison no matter what he chooses. Instead of doing this, it is better to be a national hero firmly.

The House of Commons voted to form a task force to respond to Argentina’s rude occupation of British overseas territories. After the House of Commons reached a consensus to resolutely fight back, Foreign Secretary Carrington took the blame and resigned as the Falkland Islands were occupied this time. The scapegoat who responded, Humphrey, the Keeper of the Seal, and Richard Luce, the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, also left one after another.

Mrs. Thatcher acted as if she was in danger, and carried out the third cabinet reshuffle after she took office as prime minister. She was also a member of the current wartime cabinet.
