Chapter 1229: The Indo-Pacific

If, when the time comes, one can pull a Jacqueline after JFK’s assassination? With the addition of Monroe, wouldn’t it be double the pleasure? Thinking about this, Alan Wilson couldn’t help but think about it.

From Vivien Leigh’s apartment out, turned around, Alan Wilson screwed open the door of Ms. Monroe’s room, this time the lecture drama can be described as extraordinarily serious, if it is not the female president at this time is in London, Cabinet Secretary would like to stay here.

“What a good husband, the Secretary General of Whitehall, to come home at the end of the day.” Monroe calmed her rapid breathing, not forgetting to tease the Cabinet Secretary who was ready to run away with his pants.

“I was trying not to hurt the trust between husband and wife. It has nothing to do with fear.” Alan Wilson blurted out in self-defense, “Mostly because there are too many ladies who love me, and I have to pay attention to that.”

“That’s a lot of hard work.” Monroe blankly glanced at the fishy Cabinet Secretary General, not dwelling on the issue.

It’s not that the Cabinet Secretary likes to work on diplomacy, but the Prime Minister was born as a foreign minister and has little knowledge on economic issues, so he directly took the foreign minister’s job.

And because at present, Britain was indeed still a world power on the shelf, diplomacy was indeed also extremely important.

Overseas interests caused the Prime Minister’s concern, and Alan Wilson pitched in to come up with an Indo-Pacific strategy, though not the same thing as the US strategy in a few decades’ time, but rather a strategy for how Britain would approach the middle ground between the two camps.

It’s worth saying here that the Cabinet Secretary was pro-American, firmly opposed to any third-party push with France, and not a fan of the independence of the de Gaulle government.

The Indo-Pacific strategy is also not about bringing in neutral countries to start a new business, a path that Nehru had already tried. Successfully or unsuccessfully depending on how one puts it, Kenya’s Indians were finally tucked back into the arms of India by Britain after paying the price in blood.

By now, the Indians of British Kenya had packed up their belongings and were on their way back to India under the special care of the British.

Britain’s determination to put a stop to the racial vendetta has been rewarded with the praise of a responsible great power, although the Soviet bloc may not agree and say it was a natural consequence of colonialism, but that’s fine, just take it as a fart from the Soviets.

The wealth that could be taken away was, after all, a minority, and the Indians, as the backbone of the British Empire’s colonies, left behind real estate that could not be taken away, which naturally fell into the hands of the British as a way of buying off Kenya’s black elite, or to be precise, the more honest black elites that remained after the previous racial conflict.

After this battle, Alan Wilson was optimistic that he would be able to stay in Kenya for at least five more years. As for the sacrifice of an Indian is nothing, the British Empire is in difficult times, from the former crown jewel of the British Empire, should not sacrifice sacrifice?

This is also very normal, from what I eat what the dog eats to what the dog eats what I eat, and now it’s awesome, ready to eat the dog.

For the current British, India are independent, Indian origin is naturally no longer important. Focus on operating wherever you want, use wherever you want, so the dog thing, should be killed to kill.

Decades later, the US did the same to the EU, and when it turned out that the harvest was full of hedgehogs, it was naturally a bit easier to deal with the EU’s kind of less militarily powerful organizations. Can the US do this and daddy can’t? It is simply outrageous.

But even so, the cabinet secretary personally manipulated the Indo-Pacific strategy, India’s share is still extremely important. It can’t be helped, the volume is there, to be ignored is a dereliction of duty on the part of Allen Wilson.

Sir Alan’s version of the Indo-Pacific strategy has the share of Indonesia and India, but there is no element of a certain major power. Why should there be? A country in the Soviet camp would have been out of place in an Indo-Pacific strategy report.

India’s content, mentioned that South Asia has formed a serial pattern of checks and balances, Pakistan checks India, India checks a certain major power, and which also argues that the U.S. move to support Pakistan may be troubling for Britain in its treatment of India.

The next diplomacy, Britain, if it thinks it can still fight for it, had better be able to talk to the United States to give India some breathing space.

Of course this element, Alan Wilson did not focus on ink, fill in just to express the Cabinet Secretary’s loyalty to the country, and he does not want the United States and Britain together on the side of India.

This was a matter of economic interest as well as strategic value. What happens if Pakistan and India are diametrically opposed to the historical choices he remembers? The immediate consequence would be that the Soviet Union could hang and hammer the US.

Because Afghanistan is a pro-Soviet state, the Soviet Union is one Pakistan away from the Indian Ocean. If Pakistan fell to the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union can directly drink the Indian Ocean, from the center of the Eurasian continent cut off, this disadvantage of the United States in any case can not move back.

It is also because of seeing this terrible consequence that the US is firmly giving support to Pakistan. India fell to the Soviet Union is very scary, but that will be in the future may happen, if Pakistan and India’s roles are switched, that is not the future, now the United States will have to consider whether the surrender to lose half.

Routinely filling in the Indian content, the rest is the Indonesian paragraph, and just yesterday news came through the Dardanelles that the fleet the Soviet Union was going to give to Indonesia had been counted in the Mediterranean.

This example, more let Allen Wilson render Indonesia threat theory, handy, can not hesitate, must be out of the heavy fist.

Indonesia’s population is only ninety million people, the Indonesian Communist Party surprisingly three million members exist, even this time of a major country, but also not such an exaggerated proportion, let it go, the regional stability of Southeast Asia is definitely a harm.

“Jakarta, Pyongyang and XX, has formed an axis, let it go on. The consequences are unimaginable!” In the middle of Alan Wilson’s report, the threat that Sukarno poses to regional security is strongly exaggerated.

This is also not alarmist, except for the Suharto period, Indonesia and a major power’s relationship is really not bad.

If Eastern civilization were to be summed up in terms of Eastern civilization, Iran might even think twice about self-recognition as Western or Eastern. But neither India nor Indonesia would have such hesitation; both countries self-recognize themselves as Eastern.

Normally, Indonesia, like India, hates the legacy of Western colonialism and clearly resents it.

Indonesia and Australia have never been on good terms, even during the Suharto era, when Australia was secretly on the defensive against Indonesia, even though Suharto had proved his loyalty with hundreds of thousands of lives, which again did not quell Australia’s misgivings.

Indonesia’s President Joko, has been clearly identified by Australia as a pro-Chinese regime, and Indonesia is the vanguard of the subversion of the order of Western civilization, if it is not the strength of the weak, as the deputy sheriff of the Pacific region of Australia, it is estimated that all want to learn from Israel to make a pre-emptive strike.

“The importance of Malayan industry to Britain cannot be overemphasized.” Aidan agreed with the Cabinet Secretary’s caution that the Soviet Union’s gift of such a fleet to Indonesia did pose a significant threat to Malaya’s security.

Even the second crossbow operation, Aiden did not show any obvious opposition to it, clearly the Prime Minister did not think that a program of preventive war against Indonesia, as a country, was likely to be unacceptable.

“What do you think about the Iranian side of the problem.” Aidan, not yet having a clue, inquired about the attitude towards the Iranian question.

The Iranian problem, simply put, was the attempt by the United States to remove the Soviet influence from northern Iran, after the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Allen Wilson opened his mouth and replied, “Iran, after all, is next to the Soviet Union, we are a little worried, after all, in terms of military power in the Middle East, in the face of the Soviet Union’s ground forces, it is still necessary to be cautious. If it is at sea, there is no such problem. If the U.S. is willing to assume the main support, and we help in the diplomatic field and economically, this is no problem.”

Iran and the Soviet Union are neighboring countries, the possibility of Soviet intervention cannot be ruled out, even if it is considered that Pahlavi occupies a major role in hand, the free world has to be prepared for a response plan to Soviet intervention before it can act. Obviously the current preparation is still not enough.

This conservative attitude, also let Aidan nodded, Iran is now good Britain’s relationship is not what it used to be, the United States occupies most of the interests, indeed, the United States should be the United States to step in and confront the Soviet Union.

“I will talk to the heads of several intelligence services, to discuss these issues.” Alan Wilson saw Aiden this attitude, said to make some preparations on the work.

Facing the prime minister is indeed not so easy, this is still Aiden’s relatively rare focus on diplomatic work, not much concern about the domestic situation, if it were a different prime minister who focuses on the domestic, this kind of trivia will certainly be more.

“Philby what do you say I do?” Alan Wilson sipped his whisky to himself, “The Prime Minister’s enthusiasm for international affairs, I wonder if there was a similar template in the old days.”

“The Iranian problem is indeed difficult．” Philby was also not very excited, “When will the plan to subvert Indonesia start?”

“Find a suitable opportunity, preferably do so during a foreign visit. Of course if there’s still no such opportunity, some risks may have to be taken.”

Alan Wilson said this and suddenly spoke, “You don’t seem to be too excited about it.”

“MacLean’s condition is not promising.” Philby hesitated for a moment, Donald Maclean had a serious drinking problem, it was better when he was abroad, but not after he returned home, and thanks to the fact that Maclean was a Cambridge graduate and had a reliable background, he was just transferred to a clean post.

“Oh, poor McLean.” Alan Wilson eyes flashed a touch of sadness, empathized, “Such a good man, even stumbled into this kind of thing, I hope God let him be safe.”

I don’t know if God, his old man, can care about atheists, maybe he will or maybe he won’t.
