Chapter 1101 Dad Loves You
In Basra, Alan Wilson, who was holding a newspaper, was immersed in the image of Kennedy with tears in his eyes. He could not forget it for a long time. Even the movie queen can only have fun, but the real actor must be a politician.
"Dear!" With this call, Pamela Mountbatten pushed the door open, turned around in front of her husband, sat on the man's lap, and hooked her arms around the man's neck, "Nehru and I After talking for a while, India was very enthusiastic."
"Individually speaking, Indians are actually good, but from a collective perspective, India is an unreasonable country." Alan Wilson held his wife's body. Compared with her teenage years, Pamela Mountbatten can now be called a full-fledged person. Yurun.
Unlike back then, when this ass came down, Alan Wilson's thigh felt as if a knife had been slashed.
The small movement from her buttocks made Pamela Mountbatten roll her eyes at her husband, "He doesn't look serious."
"It's for others to be serious. You don't have to be like this for you. Okay, let me be serious. Didn't I send a Rolls-Royce to cement the special relationship between Britain and India?" Alan Wilson joked and kept moving his hands. , “There have always been some changes over the years.”
"It's all your credit." Pamela Mountbatten praised her husband for his diligence with a charming look in her eyes.
If this continues, there is no way to talk about business. Alan Wilson hugged his wife and said that India's statement may be useless, "Americans always think that India is a country that accepts remote control from the British. In fact, this is not the case now. But the United States is Think so. India actually got nothing from the Six-Party Talks."
"Germany will not say anything, France will get nothing." Pamela Mountbatten added, "India will get nothing, just the same as France. Nehru should accept it."
"France is because of the Algerian war and hopes that the Iranian oil crisis will draw pressure from other countries on France. Moreover, Algeria has oil resources. It is afraid that India will want the treatment of Germany. But to be honest, it is unlikely to succeed."
Alan Wilson explained the difference. These days, India is more useful in speaking in the international community than a certain big country. This means that people listen, but when it comes to real interests, that is not the case.
Not absolute loyalty means absolute disloyalty. Nehru's India was just better than the hard-core pro-Soviet countries.
If they really fall out with a country under the Soviet system, Britain and the United States will definitely support it, but they are far less enthusiastic than usual.
"Dear, given India's population, there is almost no shortage of resources. Nehru may want to gain some energy tendencies." Alan Wilson guessed the purpose of Nehru's personal visit this time,
I think they should be close to each other.
"You said that actually the conditions in India are not that good." Pamela Mountbatten nodded obediently.
"Especially after the partition of India and Pakistan, all conditions in India are far worse than China." Alan Wilson shook his head and said, "Without the Ganges Estuary and the Indus River Basin, the country's upper limit will not be too high."
India cannot be self-sufficient in any important resource, and coal is the resource with the smallest gap.
It's just that India's current level is still too low to see. If it really develops to a certain level, India's own resources will have an alarming gap.
"Then India still thinks that it is a powerful country." Pamela Mountbatten snickered, "It's so confident."
"The current development is low, but of course the resources are still sufficient." Alan Wilson lamented, "We can solve part of India's problems through the existing oil-producing countries controlled by the United Kingdom. As compensation for Nehru's solidarity with the United Kingdom this time, You are meeting Nehru after the formal talks.”
"Me again? Hey, it seems that you will never have anything to do with India in this life." Pamela Mountbatten laughed at her husband, but she could also understand that in the last moments of British India, Alan Wilson Although it did its best for Britain, the effect on India was completely opposite.
As much as Alan Wilson helped Britain at that time, it was equivalent to how much harm he did to India.
Although the Indians did not know that he was the initiator of everything, he still avoided having anything to do with India again.
If you want to repair the relationship with India, you can only wait until India is completely defeated next year and Alan Wilson plays Dad is Back, so that old and new grudges can be revealed.
"I happen to have some Commonwealth Games schedule to discuss with Nehru." Pamela Mountbatten said, "Just treat it as an adjustment in international affairs. I just don't know how Malaya is preparing."
"I believe in Richard's ability, there is absolutely no problem." Alan Wilson assured Richard.
Looking at it this way, during the Commonwealth Games next year, we should be very careful, because there are two major events happening next year, and it just so happens that we in Great Britain can use the excuse to organize the Games and stay out of it.
By the time the decision was made to rush to India's aid, the war had already been fought, which was very reasonable.
Britain will not sign an agreement to lift sanctions until Mossadegh steps down. In the eyes of Americans, this attitude is nothing more than the British grabbing their last pants and insisting that they have not lost yet.
However, given that the Iran issue really cannot offend Britain too much, especially considering the existence of the Soviet Union. At this time, Dad grabbed the only underpants, and the United States did not want to embarrass Britain too much.
U.S. Secretary of State Dean Rusk relayed Britain's insistence to Kennedy, who was spitting on the Republicans, allowing Kennedy to focus on national affairs from his busy schedule.
Kennedy had to stop for the time being, but his younger brother Kennedy Jr. took his place and vowed to pursue the case to the end and seek justice for the victimized family.
In order to balance other countries in the free world, the United States deliberately used Germany and Japan to balance Britain and France. But at this time, it was necessary to bleed the Germans both emotionally and rationally, otherwise it would not be able to appease domestic public opinion.
At the same time, the Kennedy brothers also hoped that this move would increase their support. Kennedy narrowly defeated Nixon in the election, and the Bay of Pigs operation failed. This incident must be used to show that Kennedy was a responsible president.
For a defeated country with American troops stationed there, it is not easy to make Germany or Japan bow their heads.
There is no need to station troops at all. As long as the United States shows dissatisfaction, the Germans will immediately respond with 120,000 sincerity.
Konrad Adenauer immediately publicly apologized, saying that he would thoroughly investigate the thalidomide incident and express compensation to the injured family to ensure that this kind of thing would never happen again in the future.
Alan Wilson of Basra seems to have an angelic halo above his head. He feels that he has made a decisive contribution to the world, doesn't he? The thalidomide incident has not received any compensation in history. Although this time it has affected the United States and there are more victims, the families of the victims can receive compensation from the state.
This is the positive effect of his involvement. Although there are more victims, more people are also being compensated.
Based on Alan Wilson's understanding of the free world, if Americans had not been affected, there would be no compensation for the thalidomide incident, and the manufacturer Grantais would not bear any responsibility.
But now there are a large number of victims in the United States. Once the United States insists on demanding compensation, victims in other countries can follow suit. At least many victimized families will not have to face a difficult future alone.
Alan Wilson, surrounded by the Holy Circle, also saw the only unscathed British public opinion hegemony show its power this time.
He immediately took out his notebook and wrote down the eight major public hazards in Chinese characters to remind himself to use the hegemony of public opinion to deal with Japan.
The eight major public hazards also include the London Smog Incident, but four of them are related to Japan, including the Minamata Disease Incident in Japan, the Toyama Osteopathic Disease Incident in Japan, the Yokkaichi Asthma Incident in Japan, and the Rice Bran Oil Incident in Japan.
The BBC should also do something that is beneficial to the country, especially now that the UK is threatened by industrial competition. After finishing this documentary about thalidomide, the next opponent is Japan.
On this day, Britain, France, the United States, the Soviet Union, and Germany, as well as other powerful powers, signed a memorandum of understanding on the Iran issue. It aims to protect the interests of all parties on the premise of protecting Iran's legitimate rights and interests.
Macmillan retained his opinion that Britain should be compensated for its losses.
Alan Wilson repeated his old tune when communicating with the United States. The final agreement must be based on the fall of Mossadegh. As long as Mossadegh is still there, the memorandum is just a memorandum, not a final agreement.
"It's better to delay it for a few more months." Alan Wilson looked like he would not hesitate for the sake of Britain, but he still wanted to delay the time, emphasizing that the sanctions on Iran would not be lifted until there is a final agreement.
Dean Rusk expressed his understanding of this idea. In any case, it was not easy to get Britain to be willing to relent. The United States even got involved with Aramco.
The Rockefeller family was definitely dissatisfied. Dean Rusk was the chairman of the Rockefeller Foundation. It is clear that the Rockefeller family still has a strong influence in the oil field.
After Kennedy's generosity this time, he must repair his relationship with the oil group.
As for India, Nehru did not get anything he wanted. Iran's oil interests did not belong to India from the beginning, and they still do not.
Nehru came to Basra just to make an appearance on behalf of a powerful and powerful country, and his results were limited to the diplomatic level, pretending that India was very influential.
Alan Wilson, who has special feelings for India, can't bear it. Through his wife who has an oil industry in the Middle East, he can have a good talk with this third world leader who is seriously short of oil resources. This can also consolidate the stability of the pound area.
Alan Wilson remembers that in the 21st century, India had not discovered any major oil-producing areas, and its self-sufficiency rate was pitiful.
What a fat sheep, especially now that Britain can still hold a knife. It is the duty of the permanent undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to help the Middle East protectorate establish contact with a potential large market. Many oil wells are owned by the Mountbatten Group, which makes it even more duty-bound.
