Chapter 1029: Britain Still Resisting

Talk, or make a show of wanting to talk, as the only 500 billion dollar economy in the world today, Dulles believes that America’s power as the world’s hegemon is unlimited, and that what it wants to achieve it will achieve.

The British people can make every effort to resist, and it doesn’t even matter, but the United States will ultimately have to force Britain’s hand.

To put it so bluntly there may be some did not take care of the British feelings, but the whole of Europe plus Canada, Australia, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, all counted, the economy is still and the United States can not be compared to the fact.

Dulles has this kind of determination, this visit to the United Kingdom will be so attitude, naturally very clear.

Iron-hearted to let the British bowed Dulles, bumped into the current Prime Minister Aidan still believe that Britain is a world power, the whole process of meeting can not be said to be tit for tat, can also be described as a tit for tat.

Dulles, who hoped that Britain could see the end of the matter, let Aidan recognize the reality, or else it will go on Britain not only can not get what they want, there will also be greater losses as a result.

And the Prime Minister Aidan’s only fight, no power to fight back compared to the situation.

Has arrived in India’s foreign minister Macmillan, then experienced the British foreign minister’s happiness, footsteps on the Indian land of the moment, the smile has not been broken, this is life, is the foreign minister should have the appearance, rather than even in the domestic foreign policy, should be dominated by the foreign minister in the field, but can only listen to the words of Aidan.

If Alan Wilson saw Macmillan’s current appearance, he would have concluded that Macmillan anti-trail to show, but he is not there.

India has been independent for more than a decade, Nehru’s colorful road has also gone through a decade, and British India era, compared to say India has not changed that is certainly a lie, at least so many years of independence in India did not have a major famine, of course, long-term malnutrition continues to exist is also inevitable.

Nehru’s prestige is not inferior to the latter-day Modi old fairy, but this is only the appearance, if compared with the countries across the roof of the world, in some details can be seen, in fact, the development of the two sides of the roof of the world have essential differences.

The period when India was stronger than its neighbors was limited to around the short period of time when the Cannon Party was in power.

As early as the Korean War, New China started a program to eliminate infectious diseases, issuing decrees against infectious diseases one after another, striving to eliminate bubonic plague, smallpox, schistosomiasis, cholera, diphtheria, return fever, malaria and a host of other infectious diseases.

Effective prevention and treatment of infectious diseases improves people’s health, mobilizes the society, coordinates the prevention and treatment work of all parties, establishes and improves the health prevention and treatment institutions with a high sense of responsibility, implements the epidemic reporting system, formulates the health policies and regulations, and carries out the scientific researches, so as to rapidly and effectively control and eliminate the infectious diseases which are harmful to the people.

The results over the past 10 years have been remarkable, and there is a vast difference between the period when the country was first founded and the period when it was established. And the Indian government in this regard can not be said to be no achievement, but the Indian government’s achievements, not necessarily higher than the Mountbatten Pharmaceutical Group’s generic drugs.

With the help of Allen Wilson, who is familiar with history, his wife’s medical industry took advantage of the magical continent of India and began to catch up in the field of medicine, under the cover of India’s special national conditions, and with the spirit of helping the world to save the world, he opened the path of catching up with those who must go through the process of mass imitation in defiance of intellectual property rights, and at the same time obtained the data he wanted to obtain in the pluralistic society of India.

On this visit, Macmillan was also going to make a trip to inspect the Mountbatten Pharmaceutical Group in Bangalore, eulogizing the special Anglo-Indian relationship and recognizing the important role of British companies in India.

Unsurprisingly, Nehru, while warmly entertaining Macmillan’s visit, mentioned the issue of Goa’s belonging.

Macmillan thought to himself that the issue would have been called a handful had not the present Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs, who was the former Assistant Commissioner of British India, specifically warned him before his arrival.

“Honorable Prime Minister, now that Britain is deep in the middle of the Iranian crisis, it may be more than enough to pressure Portugal at this time.” Macmillan let out a bitter smile and rushed to Nehru, “I came to India this time even in the hope that India can exert its international influence, stand on the side of Britain, help Britain from its traditional relations, and work together to solve the Iranian problem. After all, on a geographical level, India and Iran are not far apart, and the security of the Persian Gulf is not only related to Britain’s interests, but also extremely important to India.”

Macmillan wasn’t lying, one of the purposes of his coming to New Delhi did have the intention of pulling India in favor of the UK, in this day and age, although India wasn’t a permanent member of the UN, many international conferences were inviting India, to show justice by appearing as a leader of a third world country.

“Uh?” Nehru was in a state of hesitation, he was well aware that the Iranian oil crisis was a confrontation between Britain and the U.S. He had also been following the developments on Iran and was aware that Britain had contacted France while the U.S. had pulled in Germany in a series of diplomatic battles around the Iranian oil crisis.

Could India get involved? Nehru had to think about it, Nehru’s position in India was Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, in fact, exactly the same as the current British Prime Minister Aidan, doing the job of the Prime Minister in charge of diplomatic matters.

Over the years, Nehru did quite well, for which Nehru also specifically stayed in the Commonwealth, maintaining the traditional relationship with the United Kingdom at the same time, stayed in the Commonwealth system to enjoy the dividends, which gave India’s political elite a great deal of self-confidence, the seeds of the great power mentality has sprouted since then.

Nehru also took advantage of the United States and the Soviet Union’s pull to take the middle course, so that not dare not say not to say that global hegemony, but at least independence, no longer at the mercy of others, when appropriate, but also want to knock some disobedient friends, enlist a number of juniors, at least South Asia, India to have a say in the eventual dream when the establishment of a large Indian federation, and also in the international community has to have a considerable sense of presence and the right to speak.

“Mr. Prime Minister, if India wants to do the middle course, it may also need Britain to maintain considerable strength to do so. The world’s slow move towards a two-tier pattern amongst others will crowd out the influence of the other great powers, and if Britain and France can’t resist it, it will be difficult for India to resist this trend now.”

Macmillan especially emphasized the word great powers, although Alan Wilson reminded him before he came, but as foreign minister, he also has his own ideas in the field of diplomacy, can not all listen to the prime minister.

This visit was intended to draw India to support the British heart, “If India can help Britain on the Iranian issue, Britain in the resolution of the Iranian oil crisis, try to talk about the Goa issue and Portugal, to come up with a mutually acceptable program, or failing that, to formulate a road map, and gradually transfer Goa to India, of course, in this process, Portugal’s interests should be retained. that Portugal’s interests should be preserved.”

A big country? Nehru could not help but be mesmerized, in fact, today’s India in the international left and right, is not entirely dependent on Nehru’s diplomacy everywhere to rub it in, in the final analysis, or economic construction has borne fruit.

The Soviet Union’s soaring success provided Nehru with a sample of the rise of a latecomer, and India began to stride toward the development of the road.

Through the first five-year plan, the problem of feeding was basically solved, such as increasing food production, curbing inflation, and reducing income inequality.

Immediately after that, India released its second five-year plan. The second five-year plan addresses sustainable feeding issues such as raising national income levels, developing labor-intensive industries, and developing the country’s basic and key industries.

Now, among the Asian economies, India is the second largest in Asia, not far behind Japan, excluding the per capita comparison, India is not worse than Japan, why should we only count the total? Because the populous countries in the north also only count the total.

If India can support Britain on Iran, Britain is willing to create an opportunity to talk to Portugal for the sake of India and Portugal after the Iranian crisis is over, which is a good aspect, but of course Macmillan sends out some hints of hostage-taking.

British Kenya has the presence of 400,000 people of Indian origin, and at a time when there is a loosening of the colonial system in Africa, the question of the retention of these people of Indian origin has been noticed by the UK, and Macmillan implied that if there is bloodshed, it could be a blow to Nehru’s political reputation.

The good thing is that the Goa issue Britain is willing to create a bridge of communication, the bad thing is that the Kenyan Indians will hit Nehru’s political prestige, time has come to the present time, the United Kingdom, of course, is not comparable to the days of the Empire of the Sunset, but there are still more than six million square kilometers of territories outside the territory of the mainland exists, and is still in the process of selling off their ancestral property to cash in, instead of the result is already at the end of the day.

After giving Nehru a few days to think it over, Macmillan left for Bangalore to recognize the outstanding contribution of British business to the safety of Indian lives.

A few days later, on the London side of Aidan and Dulles unhappy at his same time, Macmillan and Nehru jointly announced that Britain and India reached a package of agreements to promote each other’s development, while affirming India’s international status, “the center of the world’s future is in Asia, and the center of Asia is in India, to many seemingly unrelated matters, India also has the qualifications to take a stand. ”

Whether it is the Korean War, or even the Geneva Conference with the partition of Vietnam, India has participated, India’s international status can thus be seen in general, then this time the Iranian oil crisis, India should also certainly take a position, which is quite reasonable.

Macmillan, who was personally instructed in diplomacy by Aidan at home, finally found an opportunity to prove his diplomatic ability in India, a former colony.

The ripple effects of the Iranian oil crisis, one more country, the whole incident affects more and more countries, things have become more and more complicated, just as Macmillan achieved results in India almost at the same time, the British Foreign Office announced that it had issued an invitation to the Soviet Union to enhance the cultural exchanges between the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union.

Dulles’ visit to Britain turned out to be such a surprise that Washington exclaimed in response that the old imperialism was invincible.
