Chapter 1175 Britain’s Choice

Sting? On the premise that the British pound players were paying, the second round of agitation began again.

India's brave actions are known to everyone from Ireland to Khitan. The battle for the founding of the country and the battle for dignity are even worse than the current public opinion in India.

When Alan Wilson came to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on this day, almost every official in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs building had a newspaper. It might be the Daily Times or the Times, but the content was similar, except for the headline on the front page. .

This is already the case in Whitehall, and the situation in the entire UK is similar. Alan Wilson entered his office without any surprise. How could this matter have anything to do with him?

The reason for telling the matter to the media was because Alan Wilson simply forgot which one was exposed to the world first, the Cuban Missile Crisis or this war.

This kind of exposure refers to being known by ordinary people in various countries, not just among high-level officials. If it is the latter, in fact, whether it is the Cuban Missile Crisis or India's forward policy, high-level officials in various countries already know about it.

To unveil the Progressive Policy, we must first occupy a favorable position in public opinion and form preconceived notions about British citizens. Once this concept is formed, it will help control the rhythm later...

Even if communication between the United States and the Soviet Union failed and they really went to war, it would be easy for the government to guide public opinion.

For example, by linking two things and saying that this is a general offensive by the Soviet bloc, at the appropriate time, you can also use marginal corners that no one cares about, such as the conflict in the Katanga region of Congo, as another piece of evidence.

In a country with an electoral system, public opinion is very important and can even influence government decisions. As for reflection, that is for the future. If you win the bet, you don’t need to reflect on it. If you lose, you will reflect on it.

Along with the ringing, Alan Wilson picked up the microphone and said, "I'm Alan..."

"Permanent Secretary, the Minister wishes you to come." came the voice of Dixon, the Foreign Secretary's Principal Private Secretary.

"Got it!" Alan Wilson replied concisely, "What are you going to discuss?"

"The Prime Minister asked the minister to go to the 10th. It's about foreign policy." Dixon didn't dare to ignore the inquiry from his immediate boss, and told the truth as if he was pouring beans.

"Thank you!" Alan Wilson hung up the phone, casually pulled out the forward policy assessment formulated by Li Jisheng, and walked out of the office with it. He felt that he could use this assessment today, "Wick, do you remember anything? Want me to report."

The deputy secretary-general took the step of disowning his relatives.

After arriving at the Foreign Secretary's office, the two of them quickly walked to No. 10 Downing Street in a very friendly manner. They usually take a car.

Rab Butler asked about the current public concern for the former colonies. Alan Wilson said that he had just heard about it, "It is very normal to be concerned about the former colonies. After all, there is a layer of fetters."

Not only is this the case now, but it will also be the case in the UK a few decades later. The reaction of Indians to hearing the BBC is the same as watching CNN, a purely physiological reaction.

It is undeniable that India does have a lot of black spots, but the fact that it has been slapped one after another by shit basins is definitely due to the British. Without British public opinion’s enduring concern for India, India’s weird things would not be so famous. Far and wide.

The combat effectiveness of the top five members of the Indian oil pipeline was developed under the attention of the British public opinion hegemony with the BBC as the core. Without decades of continuous concern, there would be no strong combat effectiveness of Indian netizens.

Supervise each other and make progress together! As for the minister's inquiry, after hearing the public opinion in Australia, New Zealand, and even Canada, Canadian Alan Wilson could not explain it, and avoided the important matter and said, "Australia and New Zealand are isolated overseas, and it is understandable that they are concerned about the situation in Asia."

While walking and chatting, the two soon arrived at No. 10 Downing Street. Alan Wilson saw Norman Brooke and quickly greeted the supreme authority, "Sir Norman."

"It's just in time. The Prime Minister wants to discuss the situation in Asia with the Minister." Norman Brooke nodded towards Foreign Secretary Rab Butler and said, "The Minister of Defense has arrived."

"It seems that the level of discussion is very high." Alan Wilson said with a smile, "It is really surprising that things in Asia are so popular."

In fact, it's not surprising at all. Alan Wilson just casually said that before India became independent, it could account for half of the UK's international affairs. Is it true that the Empire of Never Sets is essentially an Asian country?

It is now nothing but a return to tradition, as it has been, is and will be in the future.

Politicians follow the baton of public opinion, essentially for the sake of support. Since the forward policy is known first, it naturally becomes the theme of the cabinet.

As for the Caribbean, the atmosphere in Washington now is probably similar to London, or even more solemn. It is impossible to come to a conclusion without a few days of discussion. It is easy to make a decisive decision on such a big matter.

But Alan Wilson still asked his wife to pay attention to India even if a nuclear war could come at any time. The fundamental reason is that he does not think there will be a fight, and he does not even think that the Cuban missile crisis is more dangerous than Ukraine.

The international environment of the two events is completely different. During the era of the Cuban Missile Crisis, all countries were actually developing pretty well. With the advancement of science and technology, citizens of all countries feel that the future will be better and better.

Regardless of whether it is the United States or the Soviet Union, they are still very confident in their own countries. The entire society is moving upward. This is absolutely unquestionable. Without a social environment of death and destruction, it is impossible to really risk everything, even if the Cuban Missile Crisis is indeed dangerous.

As for the era of the Ukraine crisis, the entire world has long been in a red sea, and technology has stagnated. There has been no major progress for a long time. Anyone with a brain knows that it is a stock world. If you want to develop, you must be the least bad one. Only when your competitors die can you have enough to eat.

With the tens of trillions of dollars in national debt in the United States, why don’t we kill others and eat their flesh, waiting to explode? For Europe, the war in Ukraine is actually more dangerous. Internationally, the United States is sharpening its sword, and Russia has been forced to a point where it cannot retreat.

Just look at the so-called European sanctions. The United States cannot be overwhelmed by refugees, but Europe will. The so-called sanctions on Russia mean that the EU's eastward expansion option does not exist. With the sanctions, Russia's development may not improve for a long time.

But Russia is fully capable of bringing Europe to its own level. As long as the euro collapses, the living standards of the core EU countries in Western Europe may drop, and the peripheral EU countries in Eastern Europe may not necessarily have a better life than Russia.

The United States is fighting the Vietnam War across the Pacific Ocean and has almost seriously injured itself, not to mention the European Union, which is adjacent to Ukraine. It has imposed sanctions on the Russian economy and created a centripetal force in Eastern Europe towards the European Union? Russia can also in turn drag the EU to its own level. The power is mutual...

Alan Wilson judged that the Cuban Missile Crisis was not necessarily more dangerous than the Ukraine War.

Naturally, we will spare no effort to direct attention to India. Today's cabinet discussion proves that this guidance is close to success.

The evaluation report on the Forward Policy was made by Li Jisheng, and the conclusion was drawn by him as the Deputy Secretary-General of the Cabinet. The Prime Minister, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Minister of Defense read the report respectively and fell into deep thought for a long time.

The people only know about India. Do they know what's going on in Cuba? They don't know how to make decisions for a while.

On the one hand, what should the British do? On the other hand, they were shocked by the forward policy. India's plan to stand up, flash its bayonet, and base victory on the opponent's non-resistance was really an eye-opener for them.

"What good does it do to Britain to pay attention to India?" Rab Butler asked under Aiden's eyes.

"The biggest benefit of this war is that Britain is no longer the country that India hates the most." Alan Wilson said with a relieved look, "For a long time, India's defense after independence was not superficial, but it was real. After the war broke out, Britain finally retreated to second place. This is the biggest gain for Britain."

Before the war broke out, India's first priority was the British comeback. After the war, India turned its eyes to the north, staring at its neighbor who knocked off the crown of leader of the Non-Aligned Movement and leader of the Third World countries.

Of course, India is still wary of Britain when its northern neighbors are not involved. There is nothing we can do about it. It is a fact that Britain colonized India. With this fact, Britain is the target of India's constant defense and it is impossible to remove it from this defense list.

Alan Wilson offers a rather optimistic conclusion that is absolutely not true.

There is a high probability that India will fall into the arms of the Soviet Union sooner or later. The Soviet Union provides tens of billions of subsidies, and the United Kingdom cannot afford to keep up.

In essence, he is still working as a paper framer, carrying out the original intention of slow decline. He can delay it for one day, one year for one year, and he must get enough benefits while there are still benefits.

"If India fails completely, we can actually make preparations for the major British banks to receive the transfer of assets from rich Indians." Alan Wilson said pitifully, "After all, it is a former colony. If we don't protect it, who will?"

"Wow!" Rab Butler's eyes flashed with greed, "Prime Minister, we can't watch India fall into the abyss. In a certain sense, we should support it."

Defense Minister Profumo also immediately said, "The United States and the Soviet Union are expected to hold talks. The two countries will not go all out to fight a nuclear war, but India is different. The most important thing is that there is no risk. If we intervene, we can withdraw at any time."

Profumo had already become Marshal Mountbatten's man. At this time, he immediately said that he wanted the British army to move to show the military power of the world's great power.

"The minister has grasped the core of the problem. The key is that there is no risk." Alan Wilson spoke up at the right time.

"Indeed!" Eden saw that both the Minister of Defense and the Minister of Foreign Affairs thought so, and he made the final decision. This statement marked that Britain had made a choice at a critical moment when it was facing a choice.
