Chapter 1425 – Anglo-Bangladeshi Treaty of Friendship
Allen Wilson had no doubt that once the broken shoes and rotten socks and such donated by the British mainland reached Chittagong, it would be enough to attract at least a month’s worth of traffic to the British newspapers.
Never mind how worthless the British donations were, even if it was a rusty bicycle with a bell that didn’t ring anywhere or a rotten bucket with no idea if its predecessor was a urinal or what, it didn’t delay the British from getting high.
In fact, from his life experience, in fact, the twenty-first century, a large country, in fact, particularly suitable for this time of generosity, as long as a little thought, every neighborhood exists in the owner of bicycles, as well as a lot of neighborhoods still exists in the scrapped car unattended, you know how much he thought it makes sense.
The scrap car system of a certain large country was the root of the unowned scrap cars that could be found in nearly any remote mountainous area, and in his previous life, when he was in elementary school, there was a scrap passenger car right next to the school fence.
Also left a lot of good childhood memories, of course, he also witnessed from the car glass, the whole big passenger disappeared little by little in the line of sight, to the middle school is left with a rusty engine, until the hair are not, should be reduced to zero into the scrapyard.
That’s just to think, a certain big country nowadays can’t hold up to the high expectations of a supreme authority, but the scrap car system is really a good thing, and should be piloted in Malaya first.
A telegram from Pakistan arrived at the Foreign Office reporting that Rahman had been released and whether to send him back to Bengal, and after some deliberation Alan Wilson called back, “Let him come to London first and cry poor here before he goes.”
Even if you are begging for money, you should be professional, you don’t come over and beg Britain, Britain can’t shave its head, can it? Come over to perform a little bit of crying to the sovereign state, the British citizens benefit you can also feel more comfortable in the heart. Do not you need paper and ink to start the printing machine?
Pakistan British Embassy, watching the High Commissioner read the telegram sent, David estimated that this trip back home, should be accompanied by the Awami League leaders.
The original Pakistan Awami League leaders were arrested and not Rahman himself, but a whole group of senior in prison inside the counting stars, and now, in the British Foreign Office’s efforts to mediate, they are free, and should express gratitude to the British diplomatic influence, a trip to London in the return to the country how?
Even just a trip to London is not enough, should also go to a trip to Hong Kong and Malaya to see, in the consideration of returning to the country to rule the issue.
Prime Minister Harold Wilson is fine, what’s wrong with him and why is it difficult for support to skyrocket? Suffering Bengali leaders to London, the damage to Britain’s diplomatic influence?
Can’t you see the Americans are saying nothing? The Soviets did say something, but the USSR was the leader of a rival camp and not saying anything was rather problematic.
When the Bengali leaders led by Rahman landed at London International Airport, signaling the official end of the Third Indo-Pakistani War, as agreed beforehand, Rahman, in the persona of an indomitable fighter, lashed out at the Pakistani army for wreaking havoc on Bengal, setting back Bengali society by hundreds of years, and lashed out at the bloodbath of the University of Dhaka, which was built by the British, for the break in the entire Bengali intelligentsia class.
Certainly not to spare Pakistan’s backers, especially those who stood firmly behind Pakistan at the UN, and the US who sent a task force to back Pakistan.
This was followed by thanking India for saving Bangladesh, which of course could not be avoided; Bangladesh was surrounded by India on three sides even after independence, and the reality drove Rahman to maintain relations with India.
For the Soviet Red Navy, which intervened in the U.S. task force, Rahman also expressed gratitude, but …… especially to Britain.
Rahman’s tearful image was broadcast on British television, with words of hope that Britain would save the Bengalis from themselves.
Ah …… Alan Wilson let out a long yawn, glanced at the expression of maternal love Vivien Lei, as well as a good big child who looked up to the sky and sighed in a long posture, spoke, “more out of the country around, the world is very big, can’t just be in the country, this is not conducive to the growth of insights.”
“But you can’t send David to such a dangerous place, that’s the only son I have.” Vivienne glared angrily at the man on equal footing with her husband, she had only one son, but Alan Wilson had more than one, “I’m so old to have him, have you considered my feelings?”
Don’t you have a daughter with your ex-husband brother? Although Ellen Wilson thought so, she decisively admitted her mistake, “There’s absolutely no next time, it’s my lack of consideration. But David is too old to be around you all the time, and you have to think about his career.”
“Is it so hard to be the president of a movie studio?” Vivienne retorted defiantly, “Like it’s better if you don’t know where people are? The earth couldn’t hold you.”
“Uh-huh!” Alan Wilson’s face cleared up and directly silenced National Treasure, then spoke, “Don’t you have a few plots of land in Xiangjiang, don’t you consider developing them? This can also exercise David a bit.”
Without waiting for Fei Wenli to reply, Alan Wilson had already said to himself, “Now that the position of the Governor of Hong Kong has been selected from amongst the diplomats, if David exercises for a few years, and I’m still in Whitehall at that time, it’s not an impossible dream, think about this.”
“There seems to be a bit of a law and order problem over there.” Vivienne’s heart leapt at the sound of the Governor’s position, she knew the man wouldn’t treat mother and son poorly, but still wanted more lip service.
“Crawford has taken notice of this matter, and over there Wai is ushering in a consolidation.” Alan Wilson pointed out that with the tenure of Governor McLehose’s harbor, the social atmosphere of Xiangjiang will surely improve on a large scale, and then put his eyes on his good oldest son, “David, the key is you, what do you think?”
Fei Wenli couldn’t wait to press her son’s head to hurry up and agree, but for something with such obvious benefits, there is no need for the Great British Treasure to personally help, seeing the good oldest son nodding, Alan Wilson slightly forehead said, “Then I’ll give it a try, it’s not likely that the Governor of Hong Kong twenty years from now will be you.”
Xia Meng’s son is not suitable to be the Governor of Hong Kong, the Governor of Hong Kong or the need for a real British to serve, in addition to Xia Meng’s son will certainly want to develop their careers in the future, stay in Hong Kong motionless to develop their careers?
Back in Whitehall, Alan Wilson asked how Rahman’s meeting with the Prime Minister went, Frank smiled and said, “Not bad, talked to us well too.”
“Pockets have been filled with pounds right?” Alan Wilson smiled in the same heartfelt way, “Brand new pounds, put them under your nose and you can even smell the ink.”
“That’s for sure, fresh off the presses.” Frank gloated, “But the leaders of the Awami League aren’t losing out, isn’t it worth much more than the Indian rupee?”
“Stuffing their pockets isn’t even a problem, and it’s going to take sixty million Bengalis to pay it back anyway.” Alan Wilson exhaled softly, “Without agreeing to our terms, the pounds stuffing their pockets is money to buy their lives.”
The British army had already entered Bengal anyway, and if Rahman and the Awami League leaders had put their heads in the sand, they should have agreed unconditionally to all British demands.
Bengal has no resources whatsoever, is there any place where a major river enters the sea that is very resourceful? The Bay of Bengal may have some resources, but it is not something that Bangladesh can have the technology to develop, what is there to lose except for the 60 million Bengalis who are waiting to be fed and are picking up clothes to wear?
Alan Wilson also had his eye on those 60 million people threatened by starvation, after all that was part of the Greater Calcutta Industrial Estate, some industrial worker base there.
While the Anglo-Indian naval maneuvers were still going on, the leadership of the Awami League, headed by Rahman, signed an Anglo-Bangladeshi Treaty of Friendship with the government of Harold Wilson in the British capital, London.
The main contents of the treaty were that the two contracting parties would continue to develop and strengthen their relations of friendship, good-neighborliness and all-round co-operation; that both parties undertook not to enter into, nor participate in, any military alliance against the other party, not to commit aggression against the other party, not to permit the use of their territories for the purpose of carrying out any act likely to inflict military damage on the other party, and not to provide any assistance to any third party taking part in an armed conflict with the other party;
In the event of an attack or threat of attack against either of the Contracting Parties, the Parties shall immediately consult together with a view to removing such threat and shall take appropriate corresponding measures to safeguard peace and the security of both States;
The Parties declare that they will not undertake any secret or public obligations to other States which are incompatible with this Treaty.
When Rahman signed the Anglo-Bangladeshi Treaty of Friendship, there was loud applause throughout the room, signed by Rahman and Prime Minister Harold Wilson accepted, and the humble social commons thundered with joy.
Clapping his hands Alan Wilson turned his head to the two men Burke Trench, John Hunt, “Rarely has there been such a delightful occasion, if you don’t mind inviting your colleagues for a drink.”
“Good idea!” Burke Tlund nodded, “After this treaty is signed, we will likely be busy for a while.”
“Busyness itself is part of our job.” Alan Wilson thought to himself, “You can be busier than me? The supreme authority’s eight-pack abs, that’s all practiced by manned spaceflight.
In terms of significance, the signing of the Anglo-Bangladeshi Treaty of Friendship signaled Britain’s return to South Asia, although through the economic siphoning effect of Malaya, Britain had previously reintroduced Burma into the sterling area. But that was, after all, an operation in the economic sphere, unlike this time when Britain’s military presence is back in South Asia once again.
Needless to think that India is not happy, India is not easy to defeat the arch-enemy wants to have a sound and color, but did not expect the sovereign state on the side to see it pretend to be, the mood must be very complex.
But Alan Wilson seems, India has nothing to complain about, although India and Pakistan fought a big fight, suffered tens of thousands of casualties, but really not as big as the role of the United Kingdom in this Indo-Pakistani war, although India paid the life, but the United Kingdom to pay but the diplomatic influence ah, how can this be the same?
