Chapter 1263 Patriotic King is love Iran
Now there are two powerful sea forces in the South China Sea, the one that is currently maneuvering is the British Royal Navy, the other one that is much lower profile and even has the suspicion of borrowing the British Royal Navy for darkness belongs to the U.S. Navy, this is something that Mountbatten knows all too well, “Allen, how much longer do you think the peace in the South China Peninsula can be sustained.”
“Marshal, how would I know that? But it’s true that the U.S. doesn’t win well.” Having reached this point, Allen Wilson had no need to be hoodwinking his father-in-law.
It wasn’t that the United States was not strong, but that the United States had chosen a model that it couldn’t win. Either it’s like a big country that fights fast-in, fast-out battles, reaches its goal through a short but intense firefight, then unilaterally declares victory, and withdraws its troops without dragging its feet.
Or it’s like the Korean War, which has come to this anyway, where the countries behind North Vietnam talk like shit.
But the U.S. chose neither, and chose the toughest path, layering on more and more but giving the North Vietnamese time to adapt, and ultimately losing its pants.
Alan Wilson remembers that after the end of the Vietnam War, the generals in the Pentagon were quite upset with the U.S. government, wondering what the hell the government was doing making the brain-dead decision not to allow bombing of the 17th parallel.
The U.S. government was not happy with the Pentagon either, except for the seventeenth parallel, which was not promised to the Pentagon, which was not the Pentagon’s wishes, did not win the war and still have the nerve to blame the government?
“I understand the reasoning, but even France this time also said that they want to solve the Vietnam problem from the political level, de Gaulle’s attitude is similar to the Soviet bloc’s advocate, all parties intend to reopen the Geneva Conference.” Mountbatten sighed, Vietnam was a French colony just over a decade ago, and even the sovereign state was on the opposing side.
As Mountbatten spoke, again with a startled look on his face, he saw his son-in-law taking out his little notebook and making notes, “Alan, what are you doing?”
“Stopping the Geneva Conference from taking place, Switzerland is not a neutral country at all.” Alan Wilson replied without even thinking, not tossing those Swiss bankers around, they always thought they could get around the pound.
The Cabinet Secretary remembered that the United States had created the Tokyo Bay incident precisely when even France had favored the views of the Soviet bloc and restarted the Geneva Conference. This is enough to show that the U.S. is not willing to solve the problem through political consultation. Nonsense, the Pentagon has chosen the battlefield, and if you say consultation, how can you solve the problem of clothing and food for millions of Cao workers?
From a big country next to Vietnam to start the war has a certain risk, but always over in the Soviet Union next to Iran, the former can also be compared to the United States military, although the United States feel that a big country is not to be messed with, but a little bit of caution will be fine. But the latter can be a completely different level of threat.
“Diplomacy is a real headache, and our prime minister still tends to be a bit of a pain in the ass.” Alan Wilson sighed, why was diplomacy Aiden’s favorite job? Almost everything involved, there are different positions, in order to better cooperate with the United States on the issue of Iran, Britain has only just repaired and France because of the establishment of diplomatic relations caused by mutual accusations.
And now, in order to take advantage of the special relationship between Britain and the U.S. to fight Switzerland, Britain must also bring down the Geneva Conference, creating an opportunity for the U.S. to strike.
One person affected by this traditionally improvised British diplomacy is George Blake, the British ambassador to France, who in the last six months has gone through a transformation from anti-French to pro-French to anti-French.
While that’s what diplomacy is all about, isn’t it also a bit too chameleonic? It had been less than a month since he had repaired diplomatic relations with France, only two weeks to be exact.
Ambassador Diamond couldn’t help but complain in his reply, “It’s embarrassing that France is already using Britain as a punching bag for the Americans in diplomatic magazines.”
“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, it’s the truth.” This is what Alan Wilson, who is also the Permanent Secretary of the Foreign Office, replied, “Britain has been pro-Russia and anti-Russia, pro-France and anti-France, pro-Germany and anti-Germany, and that’s what diplomacy is all about. Now we must look after the wishes of the United States and side with them on the question of the Central and Southern Peninsula.”
“Britain and France don’t all agree on everything, for example, on Iran, didn’t you have a good talk with the French? They also think that countries withdrawing their forces in Iran will reduce friction, so it’s one size fits all.”
“The French’s energy to think highly of themselves and look down on others is beyond annoying.” Although Alan Wilson was in London, he was the one who sneered at France in Ingrid Bergman’s face, “At the beginning of the year, the Japanese business community visited France to discuss semiconductor development, and the entire French public opinion sneered at them, isn’t it just looking down on the Japanese?”
“You cut the crap, and it does seem that Japanese semiconductors are not strong.” Ingrid Bergman also knows about this, “The semiconductor industry is powerful is the Americans.”
“It’s not good to always think of the moment as permanent.” Alan Wilson shook his head, “It’s not like France hasn’t declined, but it still can’t change this fault.”
“You’re getting more and more pretentious and like to give orders now.” Ingrid Bergman muttered in a small voice, “You must not forget the hard years spent together.”
The age gap is, after all, objective, even if Ingrid Bergman is doing her best to make herself younger, if not for this man’s resolute reflection, she would like to move the knife to try to see if she can return to youth.
“Always talking about this kind of unexplained worry.” Allen Wilson couldn’t help but reassure again and again and again that he would never be happy with the new and must be happy with the old.
Recently Allen Wilson is really doing his best to unite allies to support the United States and maintain Iran’s sovereignty and independence. The degree of selling even Washington’s most demanding standards, can not pick out the fault.
The layout of the United Kingdom is still a little worse, although the layout of several key areas has been nearly completed, not surprisingly, a few more years of hard work can be built up into the offensive and defensive economic circle. The Middle East to provide energy, Malaya to provide production bases, Hong Kong and London as a financial center, and then wait for the dollar overshooting, France back stabbing and a series of events.
Before the pre-dawn darkness, the UK would do well to cooperate with US needs, including Iran also Vietnam, which is all good in his view.
Don’t think that if countries nominally pull out of Iran, the US will prop up pro-US Iran on the basis of funding, it’s not going to happen, the US won’t prop up backstabbing countries that don’t have military bases in place.
Not to mention supporting Iran over the ability of the United States, in positioning Iran is positioned by the United States as a resource country. Iran’s population also led to the United States can not afford to benefit.
No military bases U.S. support is not at ease, Iran’s population is also quite a lot of selling resources can not have a decisive development. This is the dilemma of the Pahlavi era, once Iran chose to industrialize, that is to destroy the balance of the Middle East countries, the United States will not agree.
So Iran will not be stabilized just because it is really neutral in name, and the financial support of the United States will not prevent Iran from becoming more and more unstable due to population increase.
After two months of diplomatic efforts, through the special channels of the Five Eyes Coalition, Alan Wilson informed Washington that Britain had succeeded in convincing Germany and France. At the same time, an excellent reason was provided to reasonably avoid Iran becoming a great power arena by using Indonesia’s discoloration as a justification, even if the Soviet Union had few ways to counteract it, because Indonesia was indeed turning red dramatically.
If the USSR is dead set against it, the problem is not just an Iranian one, but one that the entire Middle East is watching.
After getting rid of Mossadegh, Pahlavi did make a show of being inspirational, and while the anti-Pahlavi’s were dismissive of this, people are forgetful. This time by defending the sovereignty of Iran’s statement, also by this Shah of Iran, after receiving the arrangements of the United States, Pahlavi officially informed the five ambassadors of the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain, France and Germany, “must be downsized in the size of the diplomats in Iran, Iran can not let what happened to Indonesia to repeat in Iran.”
After personally informing the five ambassadors of Iran’s attitude, public opinion in Iran began to build momentum, praising His Majesty the Shah for his courageous act, with slogans that to love the Shah is to love Iran.
A grand parade was launched in Tehran in support of the Shah, and I wonder if those who participated in the parade have forgotten that there was a time when they supported Mossadegh in the same way.
In the midst of this public opinion, the ambassadors of the United States, Britain, France, and Germany made one statement after another, understanding Iran’s concerns and embracing Iran’s claim to sovereignty and independence, while making it clear that the largest embassies and consulates in Iran were Soviet, and hoping that the Soviet Union would set an example by committing itself to granting Iran a secure status that would reassure the Iranian people.
“Such fears in Iran are rooted in the changes in Indonesia, and indeed many Middle Eastern countries, harbor such fears.” The Daily Times started this one, and soon the Times and other major British newspapers followed suit, saying that Iran’s fears were justified.
Agence France-Presse, the Associated Press, also danced to the King Pahlavi’s call that the sovereignty issue was the biggest problem, using it to put pressure on the Soviet Union.
British opinion is all a bit more subtle compared to American opinion, with the New York Times pointing the finger squarely at the Soviet Union, arguing that it was the Indonesian coup d’état that shook the entire pacifist world.
“It’s up to the Americans to say arch-fire. Talking across the Atlantic is hard.” Alan Wilson teased when he was with the Prime Minister’s private secretary, Brest.
“Which way, Secretary General?” Brewster frowned, not quite understanding exactly where Allen Wilson’s words were pointing.
“The most irrefutable example of the United States standing on the moral high ground and killing without bloodshed that everyone can’t refute is the early call for unconditional surrender when Germany still had considerable resistance. Forcing Germany to fight to the death in Europe, you have to realize that the German memory of surrender is the Treaty of Versailles. Surrender is so bad, isn’t unconditional surrender even worse?”
“Was there such a thing as unconditional surrender in the wars fought in Europe much earlier? Think about it!” Alan Wilson threw his hands in the air and lamented the unfathomable depths of the city at the top of the hill.
