v2 Chapter 985: save the people first

As a cabinet minister, Harold Wilson can't stay abroad for a long time. After signing the market and energy cooperation agreement, he will return to China to discuss the next steps. As for some details, he will leave it at any time. Permanent Deputy Secretary on call.

The timing of the Iran crisis is a bit of a coincidence, as Labour is counting on a tough stance to boost support. The options before Labour have no choice but to be tough.

The attitude of the United States has also been clear, the International Monetary Fund provided 60 million US dollars of economic assistance to Iran.

At this time, it has caused a huge backlash in the UK. At a time when the UK and Iran are hostile, the US has undoubtedly stepped on the UK hard.

Alan Wilson is not very nervous. On the contrary, he thinks it is a good thing. It is better to lose Iran than to lose the Suez Canal. However, in the discussion with the foreign secretary, he still said, "Rockefeller has a saying that 90% is not enough, and 100% is needed. If Iran does not give in and adds pro-American Saudi Arabia, the United States has already occupied the Middle East oil pattern. relative advantage."

"Thinking about it now, maybe in the Iranian oil crisis five years ago, although the United States didn't take any obvious action, it was a joke from us." Harold Wilson was brooding about the United States' response, and this time he took a cold breath. , is a huge blow to the Labour Party, and after returning, he will have to figure out how to appease the emotions of British citizens.

"From this time to the last one, there are indeed many doubts." Alan Wilson took the opportunity to amplify Harold Wilson's dissatisfaction at this time, "It is said that the establishment of OPEC was a last resort for the United Kingdom to fight back against Iran. And expressed its desire to Determination of protracted war. I think the United States must have doubts about the establishment of OPEC, but aside from the option of war, we firmly stated that this is a general organization for market and energy cooperation.”

"What if the United States wants to join in?" Harold Wilson proposed a possibility, oil resources, even if the United States agrees with Britain's rhetoric, it will not completely let down its guard.

"Let's just say that we do not exclude the United States and the Soviet Union from joining. This can demonstrate fairness." Alan Wilson thought for a moment, "Once the United States wants to join, there is no reason for the United Kingdom to reject the Soviet Union. You must know that the Soviet Union is also an important part of the European energy market. Exporting countries, if they aroused the dissatisfaction of the Soviet Union, could be detrimental to European security."

Alan Wilson even hoped that the Foreign Secretary could speak openly when faced with questions, "Once the United States and the Soviet Union joined OPEC, the organization would become the United Nations again, and they would talk to themselves, and would no longer be useful. But also It's not necessarily a bad thing. In short, either all join or none of them join, or keep OPEC and let the British special observer lead, or all the big three come in, and none of them can be the leader."

"Not bad." Harold Wilson thought about it for a long time and said with a smile, "Let the Americans choose, either with the Soviet Union or not to come in. Anyway, the Iran crisis is because the United States is sorry for the United Kingdom first, and the United Kingdom established OPEC is just a passive counterattack. That's it."

This explanation can be said to be in the past, because this British-promoted OPEC has nothing to do with oil sterling. Of course the pound can buy oil, as can the dollar.

The reason why Alan Wilson pushed for the establishment of OPEC was not that Britain was enough to challenge the United States in terms of financial hegemony.

Instead, they set aside a private plot in advance to prevent the United States from cutting leeks. Don't let the US inflation from the Vietnam War pass on to the UK. It is too much to want to regain financial hegemony now. As for the future, it depends on the situation.

In essence, this was still consolidating imperial preferences, creating economic linkages of industrial production, energy and other raw materials.

He believed that when the Foreign Secretary returned to London, he would definitely face all kinds of temptations from the United States, so the two of them had a discussion just now. Harold Wilson, mentally prepared, went to the international airport in Basra, and then... boarded from Dubai. On the Comet airliner, which was arranged by Alan Wilson on an ad hoc basis.

Harold Wilson was very surprised, but finally accepted this arrangement suspiciously.

Either the Executive Undersecretary is very far-sighted, or he temporarily decides to scare the respected minister, but he must not go too far. After Harold Wilson returns, he will explain to the outside world that the responsibility for this oil crisis lies entirely with Iran.

Putting the minister on the plane, Alan Wilson wondered if there was a problem with anti-bones in Europe.

France helped to withdraw from the group, Germany was a defeated country, and Italy did not have the self-consciousness of the defeated country, but Italy's oil supply was mainly provided by Libya. As for the rest, they do not have the ability to trouble the UK.

This ensures that there will be no opposition in Europe and that Harold Wilson will only have to deal with the Americans.

When the idea came to him, Alan Wilson brought a genuine Turkish handmade rug as a birthday present. According to a notepad that only he could understand, Mrs. Heidi Rama was going to celebrate her birthday.

Immediately, on this handmade carpet, a series of stories including but not limited to riding a rocket happened.

The naked men and women embraced each other and looked at each other with contentment in each other's eyes, "I just gave me a gift, and it got dirty so quickly."

Heidi Lamar stared at Ellen Wilson, and there was such a hint of reluctance in her tone, complaining softly.

"I want to be a gentleman in front of you, and I fail every time." After Alan Wilson finished speaking, he came over and had a battle of words, so that Heidi Lamar could experience the eloquence of the permanent undersecretary of the Empire. reed.

After a warm day, Heidi Lamar also left, and Alan Wilson had to deal with the details. Of course, what he gave was professional advice. Although he was in the UK, he always tried his best to serve other countries.

It just so happens that the monarchs of Iraq, Kuwait, Oman, and the Central Emirate are also there. He needs to contribute to the well-being of the Middle East at this time, and let him take the demographic statistics of each country when he shows what he has learned.

Alan Wilson sat in front of the monarchs and opened the splendid Middle East roadmap plan. The Emir of Kuwait, the country of Sabah, has 200,000 citizens at this time, Oman has 500,000 people, and later generations merged into the United Arab Emirates. The emirate, including Qatar and Bahrain, has a total population of 250,000, of which 40,000 are in Qatar and 140,000 in Bahrain.

With the exception of Iraq, these later generations of countries that make money on oil wells add up to one million people.

It is quite in line with the basic configuration of top resource countries, with abundant resources and sparse population. Although Saudi Arabia is the leader of the Arab world in a few decades, in front of these pocket countries, it is completely a poor country. Citizens of almost every country live better than Saudis.

"Happy for a small country, esteemed emirs. It is imperative now to establish a national identity system immediately and to determine the precise number of people in your country. A large amount of wealth will be inundated in your country, literally every new Finland appeared before me."

Alan Wilson secretly said that it is time to solve the problem of illegal immigration, so that rapid progress can be made per capita. Let the citizens of each country show the opportunity to make more money and more billions.

Of course, this does not include Iraq. Iraq's population has grown rapidly, doubling in ten years. The original population of more than 4 million has now become 7 million, which is one third of Iran's population.

This increase surprised Alan Wilson. He originally thought that the increase in the Malayan colony from close to 10 million to 14 million was already terrifying.

But compared with Iraq's population growth rate, it is still far behind, and the religion of peace is so terrifying.

But even if it is 7 million people, it is far from the population pressure for the Iraqi kingdom with two river basins.

Iraq has no problem feeding 30 million people, and economic development will certainly slow down population growth. Iraq's population did not grow rapidly during Saddam's time.

I am afraid that the country will fall into turmoil, and there is still enough food. Especially since the agricultural empire of the United States has opened up unlimited supply, then the population growth will be feared~lightnovelpub.net~ Twenty years after Saddam was overthrown, the population of Iraq has doubled from 20 million to 40 million.

Looking for jobs for the population, Alan Wilson, who has been a local chief executive, is no stranger to the fact that Iraq's population is not as large as that of Malaya. Let the Iraqi royal family set up an institution, even if nothing changes, the food will increase a lot.

"We are positioning Iraq as a rich and powerful kingdom, and the other emirs are a rich country. I wonder what the respected emirs think?"

Alan Wilson shook his headscarf and asked in a tone like "I am ours", "The smaller the population, the more significant the effect. But emirs should be optimistic about their own country, the Persian Gulf is not far from South Asia, don't let the Indians The kind of guys who are hostile to your beliefs come in. It can be used as cheap labor, but the doves' nests must be avoided."

Please forgive Alan Wilson for being someone who puts himself in the shoes of others. Many emirates are still just colonies, and he has already signed the protectorate and made suggestions for it.

The rise of South Korea in the early days was not just a matter of millions of workers working hard to save money in the Middle East? Don't bother the Koreans with such a hard life. You can find another way for the rise of South Korea.

In any case, this attitude made people feel good out of thin air. At this moment, his secretary Wick walked in and whispered, "Secretary, your wife has just landed at the airport with a The gift of the transporter."

"Her Royal Highness Princess, Emil, my wife just arrived and brought you gifts." Alan Wilson was not surprised at all, and told everyone the good news, save the people first, save the officials, Emil's life is not easy, What about the citizens.
