The specific issue is naturally the issue of German unification. On this issue, Britain and France have a very consistent view, that is, the division of Germany guarantees peace in Europe. On the matter of unification, let alone do it, you can’t even think about it. Well, before the military exercise was written, London and Paris couldn't wait to spread it out. This was obviously for the Germans.

"If the Germans are allowed to control the situation, then they will rule Eastern Europe. This is unacceptable. Other countries should join forces to prevent this from happening."

During her visit to Rome, Mrs. Thatcher made such a statement. Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti believed that the matter was not so serious. The Soviet tank army in the East Germany was not a vegetarian. The unified diplomatic war was naturally advertised in the GDR by Arnold, the spokesman for the transparent government in Berlin.

Mrs. Thatcher went all out on the issue of German unification and stopped maintaining superficial sympathy with Cole. The cornerstone of the British Empire would naturally cooperate fully. The true attitudes of Britain, France and Italy also spread among the GDR. What is real imperialism? That's it.

Citizens of the GDR may not like these real remarks, after all, this is not the free world in their eyes, and Arnold told them that this is the real free world. How can there be any fairness, "Britain's nuclear weapons are deployed in Germany, and the biggest role is to detonate them in Germany, not to stop the Soviet Union."

Middleton relayed these words in the office of the cabinet secretary, and Alan Wilson said with a little embarrassment, "You see, although this is a fact, it is not good to say it. But we guarantee freedom of speech. As an individual, this is not That's the official British attitude. The Germans will understand."

Regardless of whether the Germans understand it or not, Alan Wilson has already understood it for the Germans anyway. Middleton nodded and said, "But the United States still hopes that we will say a few words about this matter."

"The attitude of the Americans works on many things, but not on this one. Middleton, do you remember the Cod War? What Icelanders call respect.”

Allen Wilson said with a chuckle, "We have the same attitude as France, and should be taken more seriously than the delusions of the Germans."

Combined, the economy of Britain and France is half that of the United States, and Britain and France each have a population of 60 million. Together with the comparison of the army, navy and air force, it is not a problem to regard it as half of the United States.

In fact, the combined military power of the two countries is far more than half that of the United States, and each has its own focus. After all, in the 1960s and 1970s, Britain and France really cooperated around joint operations under his initiative.

With such a foundation, the voices of the two countries should be taken seriously. Mrs. Thatcher will find that, in fact, she really left the United States and negotiated with France, and she could live on.

In terms of how to emphasize the special relationship between Britain and the United States, the bulk of the British economy and trade is still in the European continent and the Commonwealth. There is no need to rush to hug the thigh of the United States like later generations.

Because he himself has been declared persona non grata by the Federal Republic of Germany, he wanted to discuss something, but he couldn't understand on the phone, so Albert could only come back once. Of course, the eldest son came back mainly to visit his son, this Kiwan The baby who is loved by thousands of people is named Aiden.

Albert accompanied his cabinet secretary-general's father for a walk in Hoxon Manor, and talked about the trivial matter that the British troops stationed in Germany seemed to be coldly treated by the Germans stationed there recently. The garrison opened fire. People in the Federal Republic of Germany did not have the guts to scare the Federal Republic of Germany to death. One of the components of this exercise, especially on the sea side, was the plan to blow up the oil and gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea. This might allow the Germans to Clear your mind."

"It's not that there are some garrison officers who think that it seems to be too harsh on the Germans." Albert hesitated to speak, "But I am criticizing and educating such remarks."

"After staying in one place for a long time, such a mentality may indeed appear." Allen Wilson nodded and said, "But this can be corrected, and it shouldn't be a big problem. However, it is obvious that such officers and soldiers will die after their service ends. Not fit to be in the military anymore, no choice but to retire."

He remembered that during World War II, some Japanese overseas Chinese in Northeast China also felt alienated from the mainland. In just a few years, there was already a trend of division, and they did not recognize the emperor very much.

The Democratic Republic of Germany and the Federal Republic of Germany have been separated for decades, and there must be such people who have no sense of unity. There is a famous cartoon that tells the story of the citizens of the Democratic Republic of Germany from We Are a Family to That We Are The mentality of a distant relative.

What Britain needs is the mentality of distant relatives, not the mentality of a family. I hope that the Germans who want to unify will live without conscience in the future.

Coincidentally, yesterday a German reporter questioned the conscience of the spokesperson of the British Foreign Office. The British diplomat replied, "I will not show my so-called conscience everywhere."

In the past six months, the issue of German reunification has been surrounding the issue. Britain has shown outright hostility. German Chancellor Kohl is right. It is his allies who do not want German reunification, not the Soviet Union, but so what? Just like this joint military exercise, no matter what the Germans think, they just want to do it.

The Germans may not understand why they want to unify, which is related to the life and death of the British. Sophia, a Serbian, cannot understand this kind of psychology. She doesn't understand why the UK is so tough and strong against the Germans. What is it again.

"Britain is not the strongest country in the world now. Both the United States and the Soviet Union are stronger than the United Kingdom. But the difference between the United Kingdom and these two countries is that the United Kingdom will not back down when it is time to do something."

Albert explained with a wry smile, "In the past three hundred years, the opponents Britain has defeated are far stronger than those in the United States and the Soviet Union in the past fifty years. This time, my father fully supports the prime minister's idea of ​​preventing German reunification. seriously."

Take the maritime military exercise, in which the oil and gas pipeline in the Baltic Sea was attacked. This is an obvious threat to the Federal Republic of Germany, and the oil and gas in the North Sea, the United Kingdom and the Mountbatten Oil and Gas Group, have a great say. At that time, the North Sea demarcation Regarding the issue, Norway and neighboring countries have commitments to the UK.

It is now known that the Baltic Sea oil and gas pipeline and the North Sea pipeline are the main arteries of the Federal Republic of Germany's energy, and the UK may cut them off. Isn't this a threat? What is this?

"I don't believe that Cole really has such willpower." At the cabinet meeting, Alan Wilson assessed Germany's industrial structure and said, "Germany has no self-sufficiency in energy. It is only the beginning of the year. I think we can Remind the Germans to pay attention to this aspect."

Foreign Secretary Geoffrey Howe is preparing to start a trip to Northern Europe, and Alan Wilson volunteered, "As a politician, the Foreign Secretary will have to deal with the Germans in the future. This kind of thing that involves wind criticism is still for me, a civil servant. Better."

He didn't take the initiative to do something for the career of the foreign secretary. The reason was that Greta Garbo was ill.

In the eyes of others, the secretary-general of the cabinet is on the front line, but he knows in his heart that this is not the case. Since Norway plays a particularly important role, it is logical that Sweden, the leader of the Nordic countries, should play a role. A day later, he has already appeared in the For the hospital where Jiabao works, professional diplomats are naturally responsible for small matters related to energy.

"Don't pay attention, it depends on your age." Sitting beside the hospital bed, Alan Wilson held Garbo's hand and muttered, with anxiety and hesitation on his face. He remembered that Jiabao left this year, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared, and his whole person became bad.

"Didn't you say that I have a strong physique like an athlete?" Greta Garbo blinked and replied, "Actually, there is no such a big problem. The weather in Northern Europe is like this. Every winter, a group of people will be taken away. But I have With such good medical conditions, I believe we can overcome this difficulty."

"Of course that would be great." Alan Wilson said to himself that taking away others has nothing to do with him, but he can't take away the queen of silent films, he still has feelings, "Where's Gustav? Why doesn't he come back to look at you, Why is this child like this? What's the use of him?"

"Okay, I came here yesterday." Greta Garbo stopped the impotent rage of the man in front of him, "At this age, even if you really go to see God, it is acceptable~lightnovelpub.net~Alan Wilson because of age The news that he was too big, overworked during the visit, and hospitalized in the Swedish capital was sent back to Whitehall, where Middleton is currently in charge of Whitehall affairs.

Although the supreme authority is temporarily unable to preside over the work of Whitehall, the previous plan is still being implemented in an orderly manner.

The communication with Norway has achieved good results through the efforts of professional diplomats from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. In the original demarcation treaty, there was a clause that the interests of oil and gas in the North Sea should not run counter to the interests of the United Kingdom. Of course, this is not the only clause. Right now.

This time, the UK came to ask Norway to cooperate. The British fleet participating in the exercise had already sailed through the North Sea. The Oslo side decisively expressed the traditional friendly relationship between the two countries. After reaching this consensus, the British and Norwegian governments announced at the same time that the North Sea oil and gas pipeline will be temporarily closed for half a month due to routine maintenance. As for the closing time, it will naturally begin immediately.

Facing the Federal Republic of Germany, which lacks energy, the United Kingdom has already played its cards. The first step is to close the North Sea oil and gas pipeline.
