Chapter 1321 France Withdraws From NATO

"Put on your pants before talking, it will be more convincing." Princess Margaret's eyes flashed, reminding the supreme authority to pay attention to her image. It was still early, and considering that there might be follow-up, Her Royal Highness the Princess did not chase the person away. Asking about my brother-in-law's recent job.

"It was really busy. There were military exercises between Britain and Arab countries, and some grain reserves were allocated diplomatically to the Far East. Of course, they were actually going to Malaya to transport industrial products. By the way, they also pulled a ship of grain and sold it to India. The grain couldn't be released. If it is stored for too long, it will expire. Isn’t this a nationalization movement in China? In short, there are still many things going on.”

While Alan Wilson was picking up his pants, he complained about how busy he was at work. It was not as easy as he imagined to come to his sister-in-law. He only came here once a week, so he really didn't have time. Of course, Her Royal Highness the Princess does not need to know that there are other ladies of the same status as the wife in the UK, and there are international exchanges from time to time.

"Conducting military exercises with Arab countries? Why?" Princess Margaret was a little surprised. The relationship between Britain and Arab countries is not bad, but it is not that good?

"That's not to prove that the British troops in the Middle East are too busy to help the United States in the Far East." Alan Wilson replied in a nonchalant manner, "The provincial United States always drags our soldiers to die together."

This is the purpose of this Middle East exercise. Of course, the UK is quite sincere in this exercise and has won over almost all the current pro-British countries, including Saudi Arabia, a pro-American country. If nothing else happens, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will soon receive protests from Israel.

Britain's decline from a hegemon to a loyal follower of the United States is a step-by-step process, which is also closely related to the fact that the United States has become more powerful while Britain has stayed still.

The UK loudly advocated the special relationship between the UK and the US and put it into action precisely after the end of the Cold War and the disintegration of the Soviet Union.

The United States approached Britain several times during the Vietnam War, but Britain resolutely refused to participate in the war. In the Korean War, Attlee ended up being deceived by the Americans into pushing him to the Yalu River, not to mention that there was no end in this time and space.

It was only after the collapse of the Soviet Union, probably during the Gulf War, that Britain began to participate in every American war, completing its transformation from the Big Three of World War II to a loyal lackey of American imperialism.

When the Soviet Union was at its most powerful and launched its global offensive, the Labor Party was in power in Britain, and Harold Wilson was almost suspected of being a Soviet spy.

The reason is very simple. When a powerful enemy appears, the United States can still be a human being. If the world is peaceful, the United States will treat you like a dog and you will not be able to resist.

The Cold War was also the most conservative choice for victory. After all, the Soviet bloc's land advantage was too obvious. If we really wanted to find a place to compete, there would be no army power in the free world that could show it. Unless the Koreans really mean what they say, the army is number one in Europe and Asia.

After chatting for a while, the sister-in-law also wanted a second bone setting. As a social official who supports the royal family, Alan Wilson naturally could not refuse. Before leaving, he said that he would come to see Turing in a few days.

Not surprisingly, two days later, Dixon reported Israel's protest against the joint military exercises between Britain and Arab countries.

"It's not surprising at all." After reading Israel's wording, Alan Wilson nodded to Dixon and said, "Then just reply according to the normal formula."

This time's exercise is simply to build up the numbers. The gold content of the exercise may not be high, but the shooting level must be very high. Not to mention that it is as shocking as the Western Bayi, but it must be shocking in the camera.

Egypt, Yinlaq, Jordan, and even pro-Soviet Syria and pro-American Saudi Arabia also accepted the invitation. More than 4,000 tanks were piled up, hundreds of armed helicopters were hovering in the sky, and British-made fighter jets fired rockets. The scene was quite lively. Among them, the role of the British army is that of the Arab countries' imaginary enemy Israel. Of course, this is only the view of the Arab countries, and the British Foreign Office will not recognize it.

“Israel is very dissatisfied this time.

Dixon spoke cautiously, "raising questions about Britain's anti-Israel sentiment." "

"The UK has no anti-Israel sentiments. Even if we know that the Israelis treat the Pakistanis no differently than the Germans did to Israel, why don't we pretend not to see it? This military exercise is entirely based on interests. We tell the Israelis that they can rest assured, as long as As long as the United States does not decline, Israel will be safe.”

Alan Wilson answered lightly that whether Israel is safe or not has nothing to do with him, but depends on the United States.

The reason is that simple. The Soviets regard the Arab countries as their allies, and the United States regards Israel as its biological father.

Deep into the Vietnam War, they all ordered that everything that could fly from the United States be sent to Israel. The fighter pilots simply changed their clothes and became Israeli pilots to join the war, and they saved Israel.

Can the United States remain strong forever, and can Israel remain strong forever? There is no country in this world that is always strong. After Israel loses to Hezbollah and loses to Hamas in a few decades, who knows what a real fight will be like?

Anyway, from Alan Wilson's point of view, it doesn't matter how many times Israel wins. It has done with Arabs and Yin Lang. There are many countries that teach peace in the world. The United States will not always stand by Israel. The relationship between the United States and Israel was very cold during the black president's time. Dan.

The most important thing is that Jews do not have an advantage in Israel. There are a total of 13 million Arabs in the Palestinian settlements established by Israel. Israel's own population is only nine million. Arabs are growing faster than Israelis.

Can Israel kill all the more than 10 million Palestinians like it did in ancient times? Israel dares to kill with hatred, but Israel would never dare to do ethnic cleansing, so Israel's life is not easy.

Whether Americans are willing to provide for Israel is a matter for the United States. As long as there is a choice, Alan Wilson will never let Britain be the same as the United States.

The British Foreign Office firmly denied that the UK had any anti-Israel stance, saying that all this was to resist the Soviet Union's infiltration into the Middle East. What, why did Syria also participate in the exercise? That's because if Syria is excluded, it will be too obvious, and Britain still cannot stimulate the Soviet Union too much.

But having said that, when the United States was fighting the Vietnam War, it had time to help Pakistan fight against India. When the Soviet Union assisted Vietnam, it did not delay expanding its influence in Yemen. When the United Kingdom was confronting Indonesia in Southeast Asia, how could it organize a military exercise in the Middle East? Already? Isn't that normal?

Now the UK can generate 30 million pounds a year for seawater dewatering in the Middle East, not counting the import and export of oil and food.

Through this, Alan Wilson met with the US ambassador again to explain the British position. This time Donald also informed the US of its strategy in the Vietnam War, which was actually to pursue a strategy of attrition, aiming to cause huge casualties to the Viet Cong and North Vietnam. Make it too late to replenish.

"Secretary-General, we used a defoliant in Vietnam and the effect was very good." Donald was very proud when talking about this matter. The annoying forests in Vietnam were finally no longer an obstacle.

"Oh, that's great." Alan Wilson congratulated quietly. Agent Orange, the ambassador may not know, this is the advice given by the cabinet secretary in front of him, "Oh, by the way, fall into the sea Has the hydrogen bomb been found, or has it been assessed that the danger has been eliminated?”

Just before and after the British election, an accident occurred with an American strategic bomber. The bomber was carrying four hydrogen bombs. Not long after they kissed the tanker, there was a "boom" and the two overly enthusiastic planes actually collided with each other. .

The violent impact directly destroyed one of the bomber's engines, and the wings also burst into flames. In order to prevent the fire from spreading, the pilot decisively threw away the spare fuel tank and tried to find a place to make an emergency landing, but the "delay tactic" did not have much effect. In a short time, the fire spread throughout the aircraft.

A plane crash is just a trivial matter, but if a hydrogen bomb is detonated, the consequences will be disastrous. Without any time to think, the pilot reluctantly dropped all four hydrogen bombs over the fishing village. Then, he pressed the button to eject from the cabin. Almost the moment he left the cabin, the fuel tank exploded, and the more than 200-ton bomber turned into a fireball and hit the ground.

Three of the four hydrogen bombs landed on land and were all found. The remaining one was not found after a long search on land. Recently, the United States is looking for the lost hydrogen bomb in nearby waters.

Because this was a public accident and was seen by many witnesses, the United States could not hide it. Donald was a little embarrassed when asked by Alan Wilson, and he hesitated in replying, "We have some clues."

This is a big deal in the UK. Although the US almost nuked Spain has nothing to do with the UK, but driven by unknown forces, it caused a wave of discussion in the UK. The result of the discussion was naturally that Americans, especially US soldiers, are not good enough. Countries that set up military bases are too stupid. Fortunately, the UK does not have US military bases.

"I hope our allies will find the lost hydrogen bomb soon. I heard that Moscow is cynicizing about it again." Alan Wilson spread his hands and said with relief, "Paris is also very concerned about this matter."

Facts have proved that some things are irresistible. A few days after Alan Wilson connoted the Americans, and on the day when he was receiving his wife at the airport to go home, de Gaulle, who had been preparing for several years, gave a televised speech and announced it in front of all French citizens. One thing, "France will withdraw from the NATO military integration system before October. French military personnel will evacuate from the NATO headquarters three months later, and US troops and military equipment stationed in France will leave France within a one-year deadline." "

De Gaulle firmly gave a timetable for NATO to leave France, which caused an uproar in France and even the free world. The impact was no less than that of the ongoing Vietnam War.
