British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 1694: Anglo-French consensus

"What is Mitterrand's attitude?" After the Brussels meeting, Alan Wilson went directly to West Berlin, and Mrs. Thatcher went to Paris to meet with French President Mitterrand to discuss whether Britain had discovered it, or France had also discovered it. But there is no vocal tendency towards German unification.

Once Germany is reunified and the GDR has a population of 20 million, the aftermath of the Plaza Accord can be easily resolved, and it can also increase the labor force by 20 million who are well-educated.

Because of the gap between the living standards of the two Germanys, the Bonn government can also use this to reduce the current labor costs in Germany.

As for the dirty methods in the process of annexation, such as devaluing the industries of the GDR to nothing and buying them at the price of cabbage, they are innocuous compared with the above. In front of Mrs. Hall, it is not that Britain has not carried out privatization, and it is enough to reduce the fairness index by ten or a hundred times. Anyway, the Democratic Germany is a defeated country, and there will be no latecomers to avenge it.

In shaping the correct memory, sooner or later those who experienced the GDR will forget, and will not ask whether it was fair to be annexed in the first place.

Alan Wilson remembers it because he was born in a country that slipped through the net, and escaped the scorn of the free world.

"As you predicted, we have found a new consensus on the issue of German reunification." Mrs. Thatcher, the banner of the special relationship between Britain and the United States, was violently attacked by Bush Sr.'s remarks at the Brussels meeting that Germany is a leading partner in Europe. Even if she is unwilling, she knows that the special relationship between Britain and the United States is beyond her control.

The Iron Lady may not want to, but in the end she has become what she hates. Like the European faction of the Labor Party and the Conservative Party, she has admitted the fact that she was unwilling to admit before, that Britain is actually a European country.

Alan Wilson did not reveal the disappointment of betraying the country. The United States definitely hopes to have a special relationship with the United Kingdom. If the influence of the United Kingdom is limited to the British Isles, the United States will definitely not be able to do so in the short term. How about the United States, maybe in the long run up.

Obviously, this asking price is far from the price in Mrs Thatcher's heart. Britain will give up the interests of Rhodesia, Newfoundland, Malaya, and even the Middle East and the South Pacific. Mrs. Thatcher could accept this kind of offer, so after ten years in power, the Iron Lady was finally awakened by Bush Sr.'s fantasy of special relationship.

A good horse doesn’t turn back, but a female prime minister can, and just two hours after the Brussels meeting, Mrs. Thatcher, under the guidance of the cabinet secretary-general, found a common language with France, that is, how to curb German reunification, Just like what was said in that conversation, Mitterrand was very interested, and Mrs. Thatcher found a consensus between Britain and France immediately after her visit to Paris.

Mrs. Thatcher changed the decadence in the special relationship between Britain and the United States, and completed a gorgeous turn to lead Europe. She also conveyed Mitterrand's attitude like Alan Wilson, "We talked openly and honestly, and Mitterrand also had doubts. We Assuming the reunification of Germany, they have made their own attitude clear.”

Then Mrs. Thatcher narrated Mitterrand's statement that "France and Germany are friends and allies." But what is happening now is preparing us for a new alliance of France, Britain and the Soviet Union against Germany, as in 1913. You will have ninety million people, but the Soviet Union will turn on us and you will be surrounded. "

"It's too optimistic. The Soviet Union has a map head full of water, and it may not be able to help. You must know that Russia is rich in admirers of Germany. It's not like Peter III has never appeared before."

Alan Wilson heard the role of the Soviet Union again, looked at Mrs. Thatcher and asked, "Do you think the map leader is smarter than Peter III?"

The unification of modern Germany originated from Prussia. Without Prussia, there would be no unification of Germany. It was not until the time of Frederick William I's son Frederick the Great that Prussia really squeezed into the ranks of European powers. Frederick the Great was a figure like the father of Prussia. In Frederick the Great Prussia squeezed into the ranks of European powers.

The Seven Years War was extremely important in the history of Prussia. France, Austria and Russia formed an alliance. Britain supported Prussia on land and mainly captured French colonies overseas.

New France in North America and French India in Asia were all captured by Britain during this war. Prussia on land is in danger.

Prussia defeated the Austrian army several times in local wars but had no choice but to make too many enemies. The French-Austrian coalition entered Magdeburg in the west, Austria regained Silesia and marched towards the Prussian capital Berlin, and the Russian-Austrian coalition occupied East Prussia and moved to Pomerania. To advance, Sweden sent troops into Pomerania from the North Road and marched towards Berlin.

At this time, the Russian Empress Elizabeth I passed away, and Peter III, the number one fan of Frederick the Great, succeeded to the throne. Peter III, the father of Germany, saved Prussia from the brink of extinction, and only then did the embryonic form of modern Germany come into being. His behavior is definitely not a good death.

Facing the rhetorical question from the cabinet secretary, Mrs. Thatcher, who has never thought she was wrong, hesitated in a rare way. Her self-confidence has already been severely attacked by Bush Sr. once. It is embarrassing to stick to the end, and now I dare not say that the map head is more talented than Peter III.

"Containing German reunification definitely requires the joint efforts of our three countries, but the main work must be done by us and the French. But having said that, we can use the example of Peter III to let Prussia go, and spread it in the Soviet Union. Well, we can avoid being hated by the Germans or we should. I still don't trust map headers, though."

Allen Wilson said Shi Shiran, "Maybe he is really stupid enough to forget how Peter III died."

Peter III was killed by his wife Ekaterina the Great through a court coup. The wife of the head of the map is not called Ekaterina, but the supreme authority has a lady with the same status as his wife. Name Yekaterina Alexeyevna Fultseva.

Known as the cultural tsar by a certain big country during the period of hostilities with the Soviet Union, Alexeyev is indeed preparing to do his best.

For this reason, Alan Wilson decided not to spread conspiracy theories comparing Peter III to the map head, what if he was superstitious? Go to Fultseva again.

The preparations that should be made are to be done. Alan Wilson suggested that the West Berlin British Army be replaced by a reliable unit, and the commander be replaced by a reliable commander who is nearing retirement.

"Why?" Mrs. Thatcher was a little suspicious. Didn't she just say that it is best for the Soviet Union to be the villain?

"We don't want to be villains, but we must be prepared to be villains. Once there is a trend of instability in Berlin, Erich Honecker may request foreign military intervention."

Alan Wilson replied, "When I was talking to Erich Honecker, I mentioned this idea. Of course, I don't want this to happen, but the preparation must be done, just like I was in The military plans for the Falklands War were drawn up in the 1950s."

Then Alan Wilson expressed his appreciation for Mitterrand, "If the Triple Entente can reappear, it will be a good thing for maintaining peace in Europe. Of course, Eastern Europe still needs to be liberalized. If the Soviet Union releases its interests in Europe, even if it is free competition, the future If you stop being aggressive, you can look forward to peace in Europe in the future. If the Economic and Trade Council uses sterling for trade, then the Soviet Union is a close ally of Britain."

Do you really dare to think about it? Mrs. Thatcher murmured in her heart that the Economic and Trade Council is a trading system between the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. Although it is not as strong as the United States and Western Europe on both sides of the Atlantic, it can be regarded as the second industrial group in the world besides Europe and the United States. Settlement, that is the moment when the pound returns to the world currency.

"If it really happened, Britain is of course a close ally of the Soviet Union." Mrs. Thatcher replied absent-mindedly, and she would not delay the dream of the cabinet secretary.

"Prepare for Erich Honecker's visit. Let me ask Pamela's friends what industry they are interested in in the GDR. The reform is really a good thing, especially the privatization reform." Alan Wilson intervened Trouser Pocket is about to say goodbye, this year is so busy, his time is also very tight.

A few days later, six former Romanian Communist Party leaders issued an open letter criticizing Ceausescu's policies and calling on him to reform Romania. Ceausescu's response was that there was no response.

Alan Wilson attached great importance to this matter, and tried every means to get in touch with Hao Daer, asking if the Soviet Union had any plans to kill this leader who did not obey Moscow's authority.

Anyway, Alan Wilson has already communicated with the United States. At present, the free world has no relevant plans. After three days, Alexeyev said that he did not find any news about what Ceausescu was going to do.

Except for Romania, Bulgaria and Czechoslovakia are still relatively peaceful. The original invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 ~lightnovelpub.net~ has become Poland in this world.

This has led to Czechoslovakia's low eyebrows and pleasing eyes on the one hand, and on the other hand, economic loosening has always existed. In other words, the reformists have always existed, but they did it quietly.

As for Bulgaria, its presence in the Warsaw Pact camp is not high. Bulgaria's role in the Warsaw Pact is equivalent to, I will do whatever the Soviet Union asks me to do. Moscow doesn't need to be tough, it can be easily discussed and negotiated, so Bulgaria is currently considered calm.

After thinking about it, Poland is still the most dangerous. Although the losses have been pushed to the Solidarity trade union, whether Poland's foreign debts should be repaid or not, this is not a problem that Jaruzelski can handle.

Alan Wilson wondered if he should continue to defend the special relationship between Britain and the United States on such innocuous issues, such as no waves, and put pressure on Poland by debt maturity.

Arnold returned from Singapore, and Alan Wilson decided to wait a few more days. Poor people like Poland should be at the bottom of the ranking, and it is not as important as a close ally with a cloth on his head.
