Chapter 482 Factory Debate
"British Civil Servants ()" Find the latest chapter!
It would be impossible for the Soviet Union to defeat a group of old imperialist countries plus the United States with the power of a single country.
Losing the Cold War was inevitable, but its disintegration was beyond everyone's expectations. It even brought a very fatal illusion to the winner, the United States, which caused the United States to be immersed in this illusion and unable to get out.
The so-called vast land and abundant resources are characterized by a country with a huge amount of resources and a high international status. However, most of the time, its people do not live a good life because the per capita resource possessions are not large.
The situation in the Soviet Union is more special. Its per capita resources are definitely worth a lot, but due to the difficulty of development and transportation conditions, it is difficult to ensure that everyone can enjoy these resources.
Even during the period of Imperial Russia, as a country, no monarch in Europe dared to despise Imperial Russia, but as a common people, living in Russia was very different from living in Western Europe.
The same goes for the Qing Dynasty. As the representative of China's humiliating dynasty, the Qing Dynasty was full of martial virtue for most of the time, otherwise it would not have such a large area. Asian countries have few rivals, and even the British could not defeat the Nepali people. The Qing Dynasty was able to handle it. An agricultural country can deploy organized troops to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and win the war. This reflects the awesomeness of the vast land and abundant resources, even if it is purely An agricultural society can survive.
Roberts' current task is to talk to a country with vast territory and abundant resources about the affairs of another country with vast territory and abundant resources. Both of these two countries with vast territory and abundant resources have entered a new era. Alan Wilson can only wish this colleague good luck.
As for himself, he went to Frunze District to visit the Frunze District according to the itinerary given by the Soviets. There was an exhibition on the achievements of the Soviet Union's construction in the new era. The receptionist was Fortseva, the First Secretary of Moscow's Frunze District.
It is hard to imagine that the two met again under such circumstances. This time the environment has changed, and Alan Wilson can no longer take the cultural czar as seriously as he did in London.
You can't treat Fortseva like you treat Gromyko. After all, Ellen Wilson doesn't dare to do this. A woman can do anything if she goes crazy. Several diplomats who followed Ellen Wilson on the tour, Suddenly I found that my boss suddenly became kind-hearted.
Fortseva maintained a gentle and calm attitude and suppressed her inner ups and downs. As a future star who has already stepped into the ranks of senior cadres, she certainly understands the importance of taking the overall situation into consideration.
"If everywhere in the Soviet Union was like the projects we visited today, it would be an awesome country." Alan Wilson followed Fortseva and was within the radiation range of the incense wind, and said dizzily.
"Foreign friend, what do you mean?" Fortseva turned around and looked straight at Alan Wilson, as if she was ready to do anything to defend the Soviet Union.
"Literally speaking, you Soviets always show a confrontational attitude, which is not good for world peace." Alan Wilson said solemnly, "Am I wrong?"
"Why didn't you, the UK, take a confrontational stance?" Fortseva asked in a bad tone.
"Because I'm British!" Alan Wilson shrugged indifferently and gave an irrefutable answer.
No matter what country a person is born in, he must protect the interests of his country at the most basic level. Alan Wilson is British, but he is not a Soviet. If he were a Soviet, the old imperialists would have fun and give him a place in the Kremlin. The unlucky ones would be the United States and the United Kingdom.
Objectively speaking, with the level of science and technology and material resources of the Soviet Union, if they are properly deployed and choose only one to solve the arms race and people's lives, they can handle it, and there is no problem.
Not to mention the capabilities of the arms race, it will be visible to everyone in future generations. With the support of the Soviet Union, the armament level of the Warsaw Pact has never been lower than that of NATO. If the Soviet Union is willing to maintain this situation,
He can continue to engage in military confrontation with the United States, no problem.
The problem is that there is a military confrontation and a competition for quality of life. The Soviet Union is fighting against the United States, Britain, France, Germany, and Japan, and it has the support of resource-based countries like Canada and Australia. It is impossible for the Soviet Union to win under normal circumstances.
But the Soviet Union did not have no chance of victory. Later generations of the Western world were obviously too liberal. In the 1970s, the Soviet Union saw the proliferation of hippies in Europe and the United States, which brought about a decline in social morale and the proliferation of various crimes. It also believed that it would win.
But the problems in Europe and the United States are chronic diseases. The Soviet Union never dreamed that he was suffering from cerebral infarction, which was very embarrassing.
As for ideological confrontation, Alan Wilson has no idea. He has been safeguarding the interests of the colonial empire at this stage. The Labor government is also the same. Colonies that can no longer be ruled will be given up, but Prime Minister Attlee will not give up the colonies that have interests. Preparing to let go, he still strikes hard.
The ideological confrontation was a matter between the United States and the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom was not suitable to participate in it. Whether it was world liberation or national self-determination, it was based on the disintegration of colonies, and the United Kingdom had no reason to get involved.
Alan Wilson hopes that the UK will not be obsessed with any doctrine, but will use whatever is easy to use, so that it can be long-term and even transcend.
Once the confrontation becomes fierce, it will inevitably have consequences. The Soviet Union will eventually die and the country will be destroyed, but it will also leave deep-rooted traces on the victor, the United States.
Originally, any kind of ideological stamp was dispensable for the United States. Before the outbreak of the Cold War, the United States lived quite well without political correctness. As a result, the flag of the free world was chosen as a weapon for the United States to resist the Soviet Union for the Cold War. It was a necessity for the Soviet Union, but not a necessity for the United States. As a result, the United States not only did not weaken its ideological stamp after the Cold War, but further strengthened it as the foundation of the country.
The Soviet Union's ideas originated from Marx and Engels, and were far stronger than those of the United States in terms of theoretical perfection and inheritance. The American flag of freedom is a mess, and Americans themselves don’t even know what it is.
Naturally, it was useless for Fortseva to demonstrate Soviet developments in front of Alan Wilson. He, a Whitehall civil servant, had no idea of human progress in his mind.
An American might have retorted one or two words, but Alan Wilson didn't even retort, pretending that he didn't hear anything.
This made Fortseva very angry, and she made up her mind to educate her son well in the future and let her children crush people like this for the sake of the motherland.
"I don't believe in any propaganda, I only believe in the convenience brought by technology, respected Ms. Fortseva." I didn't know that Fortseva still wanted to use her son to crush his Alan Wilson, Shi Shiran said, " When you introduce the development of the Soviet Union, you always emphasize planning. We in the UK are not the United States. We will not refute the superiority of planning in certain fields, but planning cannot solve all problems. Can you plan how much food you will eat today? , can you plan how much food you can eat in the next year? Even if you can, this will definitely cause deviation, and the longer the time, the bigger the problem will be."
"For a country like you, the United Kingdom, this may be difficult to understand, but we in the Soviet Union are different..."
Fortseva was still trying in vain to defend the motherland, but Alan Wilson rolled his eyes and said, "Do you know why many European countries are wary of the Soviet Union? It's just like you, madam, with a savior's attitude Mentality guides us in what we do. You have to know that many countries in Europe were successful in the previous era."
"The colonial era? That is a crime!" Fortseva said in surprise, "It seems that this gentleman is quite protective of this crime, which is really surprising."
"It seems that Ms. Fortseva did not listen to what I said." Alan Wilson stopped talking and said, "British citizens live better than Soviet citizens. In this case, no matter how much you preach, it is useless." . And this kind of preaching will only lead to confrontation."
"The development of the world is not in a static state. The life that Britain enjoys now requires the struggle of citizens. Once the Soviet Union reaches the level of Britain, Mr. Allen will discover the difference. As long as he was born Just in the Soviet Union, you can enjoy it easily."
Fortseva was not prepared to let go of Alan Wilson so easily, and the two began to debate around the factory they visited.
Your words to each other also aroused the ideas of the British diplomats and Soviet cadres next to them.
"Why does it look like a kitchen debate?" Suddenly, an idea flashed through Alan Wilson's mind, and he decisively ended the mess with the big-haired girl. He turned around and whispered to the colleague next to him, "It was a mistake for me to reason with a woman."
In Fortseva's eyes, this was an act of sex discrimination in anger, but beyond her expectation, several British diplomats nodded with approval and said, "They are too emotional and not as rational as us..."
"Either cry and cry, or act recklessly!"
A group of moral vacuums, completely in Alan Wilson’s shoes, expressed their approval of such sexist remarks.
In the evening, Roberts and others, who had brokered the peace talks with Alan Wilson, returned to the hotel where they were staying and reported the results to Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin. Naturally, they also mentioned their visit to the factory.
"Alan, you may leave something to say, and if you are an elected candidate, you may lose the election because of this." Ernest Bevin said helplessly after listening.
"Dear Minister, how could I look down on women? I love women, and my fiancée is a woman." Alan Wilson denied his remarks during the day.
"Molotov expressed his willingness to discuss the establishment of a transparent mechanism. If the Soviet Union can withdraw some troops to show sincerity, this can be regarded as a huge diplomatic achievement."
After listening to Alan Wilson's interesting stories, Ernest Bevin looked relieved and said that the results of this visit can still be expected.
