Chapter 1207 Nassau Talks
This attitude has been intolerable to Dulles, the Korean War the United States did not put out its full strength at all. It had no effect on the economic development of the United States, not even a warm-up.
Even when the war was going on, the scene of the United States vibrant everything, still in front of us.
Is it possible that after only ten years, Britain is already so distrustful of the United States? It is simply outrageous.
“All it would take is a surgical strike and we would be able to deal with the potential nuclear threat.” Dulles looked high and mighty, wanting to show off his fists in front of his dad, “We have a full-blown nuclear war plan.”
Allen Wilson did know that a nuclear attack was indeed going to take place during the Kennedy years, after all, a certain major power at this time was basically akin to Iraq facing Israel, and didn’t Israel also have a preemptive strike.
If he remembers correctly, a certain big country one hundred and seventy-seven large and medium-sized cities, should be in the first batch of nuclear strikes in the list.
“The question is not what will happen to them, but how the Soviets will react. If Washington launches a nuclear strike against them, the Soviet reaction becomes the top priority.” Alan Wilson, as if Chamberlain and Daladier were alive, continued his appeasement, “The Cuban Missile Crisis has already sent shockwaves through Europe, so what would the Soviet Union think if the U.S. were to first go in the other direction and once again put nuclear weapons into actual combat? What would our allies think?”
Is the question whether a major power did anything? Not that question at all. For the United States, the key is the attitude of the Soviet Union. And for the Soviet Union, it was the attitude of the United States. Until the question of what the Soviet Union’s attitude was is resolved, it doesn’t matter at all what the United States’ attitude was.
I don’t know whether this was the thinking of some of the American top brass, or whether Kennedy envisioned it, but the chances of success were nil. (narrator) The Soviet bloc was confined to the bickering stage, and you went up and nuked it?
The repercussions of that, Alan Wilson couldn’t even begin to imagine, but he didn’t stop it. He didn’t stop it. He said, “Can the U.S. take care of the Soviet Union? No, since it’s impossible, it’s not going to happen.
Saying goodbye to Dulles, who had come to the British Bahamas to check on secrecy, Allen Wilson turned his head and informed Prime Minister Aidan of the matter, indicating that these Romans, who had achieved hegemony, were restless to make trouble again.
“How is it that the Americans have such rash ideas now?” Aiden recognized Alan Wilson’s response, then said, “America is very worrisome in the way it views this issue of war, and you’re right to react.”
“The way I see it, though, it probably won’t have much effect; those Romans don’t think they need the Greeks’ help now.”
Alan Wilson side-stepped the rather delicate Anglo-American relationship right now, “The gnomes in Zurich shorted the pound several times after the war, and we actually know exactly who the source of the shorting was. After the Cuban Missile Crisis, hopefully the U.S. will realize that the Soviet Union is the real enemy of the U.S., and that Britain can be a well-connected ally.”
“This could be a tough summit.” Aidan looked to Rab Butler, the Horseman and Foreign Secretary, and said, “We may have had a previous misperception about this man Kennedy.”
“It can’t be wrong to realize, after all, that Aramco gave the Saudis no compensation for the American oil conglomerates. Using government power to test pressure on the steel industry, 然 Wall Street resentment are real.”
Alan Wilson opened his mouth to introduce, “Now Kennedy’s high approval rating is because of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the decent response in the eyes of the American citizens, but in fact the American citizens don’t know, the United States privately withdrew the missiles from Turkey, if they knew, it’s not easy to say how the high approval ratings would have evolved.”
“It’s not like we have as little leverage as we think!” Allen Wilson was ready with the terms of the Hui-Ying Office, this summit wasn’t a thousand miles away, coming over specifically to add to Kennedy’s popularity.
“We have nothing to budge on, cooperation is based on equality.” Aidan sort of set the tone for this summit, and Rab Butler immediately nodded in favor.
“In the state Britain is in now, it’s perfectly fine to start from a position of strength, listen to what America is going to do, and then tell the Americans what we’re going to do.” Alan Wilson followed the thoughts of the two diplomatic heads, “With the 35 million tons of Kuching steel base, we have nothing to ask the United States.”
Britain had to live up to its unification value, and at this juncture in the Cuban Missile Crisis, Alan Wilson didn’t think the timing was too bad.
God knows, how bad was the British economy historically, that a month after the Cuban Missile Crisis, it all but accepted an unfair deal from the U.S.?
He’d wondered if Macmillan had something on the CIA, but since taking over as Secretary General of the Joint Intelligence Committee, he’d probed carefully, and had at least established that Aiden had no immediate or collateral family members who’d been dragged down by the U.S., and that the only thing wrong with him was that Aiden had a drug dependency, and had been forgiven for it by British citizens.
It’s like, Iran gave twelve missiles, and the US said it was a breach of Iraqi sovereignty.
It’s as if Bashar withstood a siege by opposition forces and the Arab states are looking at Syria as a major force for security in the Middle East again.
Sometimes it’s like this, it’s better to be pro-US than pro-US, and pro-US than anti-US. Britain is not ready to be anti-American yet. What’s wrong with benefiting? If we can favor Germany and Japan, can’t we favor Britain?
On the 18th, U.S. President John F. Kennedy and Secretary of State Dean Rusk arrived in Nassau in a confident mood.
British Prime Minister Aidan and Foreign Secretary Rab Butler, to the American President and Secretary of State to express the welcome, accompanied by journalists will be the British and American heads of state friendly and cordial scene photographed, the world are extraordinarily concerned about the Anglo-American summit is considered to be the official start, even far away from Paris de Gaulle’s government is also extraordinarily concerned about the French news agency is very bluntly, “Britain in the end, is the European leader, or to follow the North American “Whether Britain is the leader of Europe, or whether it follows the orders of North America, will be clear in a few days.”
This report, bluntly stated the attitude of the French to this Anglo-American summit, the same woodpecker movie two female president stuff money is also inseparable.
In this day and age, in fact, Europe’s voice in public opinion had not yet completely declined. Alan Wilson remembers, Europe has no voice should be Italy after Berlusconi, before this, Berlusconi’s traditional media empire, in Europe is still quite influential.
Simply put, the traditional media empire, is the United States of America’s Internet hegemony killed off, after Berlusconi, the European media voice of the naked eye is much smaller.
Kennedy and Aidan’s meeting, a little more straightforward to say with a slogan can be described, Britain and the United States special relationship, or the macro level. Specific matters of negotiation, broken down line by line, surely have nothing to do with the President and the Prime Minister.
That is the matter of Dean Rask and Rab Butler, Rab Butler next to the position, belongs to the Foreign Office permanent undersecretary Alan Wilson, at this time his eyes are in front of the small beige flag, the United States articulated that the nuclear forces should be used together, under the guiding framework of NATO, the left ear in and out of the right ear.
Britain must support the U.S. multilateral nuclear force program, and the U.S. can use Britain’s nuclear strike forces through NATO to subordinate Britain’s nuclear forces to those of the United States. Britain is only allowed to use its own nuclear forces if its supreme interests are seriously threatened.
“Ah ……” Alan Wilson spoke up with a long yawn and boredom, “Good, next time there’s something like the Cuban Missile Crisis, Britain can look forward to having equal status with Turkey. The Soviet Union’s intermediate range nuclear missiles, it seems, will have a place for Britain as well.”
“Sir Wilson, once the nuclear forces of the NATO nuclear nations are together. We will have an overwhelming advantage against the Soviet Union.” Dean Lasker opened his mouth unhurriedly and persuaded, “This is good for Britain, America, and France.”
“Hasn’t the Secretary of State read the recent French newspapers, the De Gaulle government doesn’t think so. And a nuclear missile in your own hands is the most overwhelming advantage, after all, this thing, the most powerful is when it’s on the launcher but not yet issued.”
Alan Wilson laughed, meaningfully said, “So this very unjustified request, the United Kingdom seems to be no need to accept, in economic and trade cooperation, we do have certain ideas about the United States should support the United Kingdom, in Germany and Japan on exchange rate manipulation of the stance of the two countries, I feel that it is possible to talk about it.”
Cold War support for Germany and Japan, is not some kind of profound means, and now Germany and Japan are in varying degrees, the formation of competition for the British industry, Alan Wilson at this time solemnly proclaimed, is considered to be the issue of picking this issue, “Does the United States support the British claim? Or give Britain and Germany and Japan the same treatment of economic and trade status, which is the basis of cooperation.”
“Sir Wilson, Britain’s economy is fine. We’re all looking at it.” Dean Lasker replied with a frown.
I thought you didn’t know? Allen Wilson unhurriedly took out the twenty-six articles of the Beneficent Britain, reading them one by one, and as the articles went deeper, the American diplomats on Dean Lasker’s side, frowned.
Simply unprecedented extortion! Those who didn’t know thought the White House had just burned down yesterday.
“I really hope Sir Wilson is joking.” Dean Lasker’s attitude hardened even as he spoke, “Something very much against the spirit of free trade like the Imperial Preference System still exists, and Britain is asking the United States to take care of Britain’s economic dealings? What kind of spirit is that?”
“We believe that the United States still needs Britain’s help in terms of global interests.” Alan Wilson said without changing his face, “This is a fact that is more obvious than a vague phantom.”
