Chapter 1542 – Iran Hostage Crisis
“You stopped the Chancellor of the Exchequer outside?” Mrs. Thatcher asked rhetorically in disbelief that the other man could do that, that he would dare to do that.
“Oh, I was talking to the Prime Minister about something important, the Chancellor of the Exchequer? That’s Frank in charge.” Alan Wilson replied very matter-of-factly, “Personally, I do understand perfectly well which is more important, the Prime Minister or the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and it is not my duty to keep the Chancellor of the Exchequer happy.”
In the face of the Prime Minister questioning his accusation of blocking the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Alan Wilson directly stated that it was appropriate for the Prime Minister to keep the Chancellor of the Exchequer waiting for a while, “Can you not take things for granted when it comes to national policy, Margaret, you’re now the Prime Minister of the British Empire, not the Chairman of the Campus Conservative Party.”
Calling the Prime Minister by her name and mentioning the past of the Campus Conservative Party Chairman, instead of easing the current atmosphere, it became more subtle, Mrs. Thatcher was almost angry, if they never met again, she might tantalizingly forget the past in the long run, but she was now the Prime Minister, and the other party was the Secretary General of the Cabinet, and the two of them still met often.
The reference to the chairman of the campus Conservative Party, in Mrs. Thatcher’s opinion, this is the intention, seems to connote something, can not help but open the mouth to threaten, “I can remove you from your post.”
“In principle the Prime Minister naturally has that power, I never denied that. But unavoidably it might be a personal vendetta.” In the face of this threat, Alan Wilson expressed honesty.
The Prime Minister could, of course, remove the Secretary General of the Cabinet; it was only a question of whether he could make up his mind.
But Alan Wilson was not in the middle of a frontal confrontation with the prime minister, and if Mrs. Thatcher wanted to do that, there would be no room for redemption.
“If you really hate the Soviet Union, you could consider ordering a declaration of war against it, but I know you certainly wouldn’t dare. So what? Just to show the majesty of the British Empire, you keep firing guns in the House of Commons? Honestly, if you made a table listing the accusations made by the USSR against Britain, and the accusations made by Britain against the USSR, it would show a staggering percentage, as if oh we Brits couldn’t live without the USSR.”
“Of course, I can understand that, after all, the British Empire is a country of free speech, one can attack the Soviet Union for no reason at all, but never the Prime Minister, or at least a little scolding and a lot of help, or else we will certainly not be able to get the gibberish mongers killed, but we will get them to honestly correct their mistakes and expound on the facts of their previous confusion by means that seem to be reasonable and legal. ”
“I came here today, entirely from the point of view of wanting Britain to get better and better, to talk honestly with the Prime Minister about the future of the country, not to come and quarrel. On the subject of diplomacy, I can understand the practice of using diplomacy to divert attention from the fact that there is a big problem with internal affairs. It can’t be used all the time though, the USSR is not a panacea. Internal problems ultimately have to be solved internally, or it’s President Carter’s dilemma.”
“Hasn’t the Soviet Union threatened the United States yet, what’s with Cuba and now Nicaragua?” Mrs. Thatcher almost laughed out loud and had the nerve to accuse herself? Wasn’t this Secretary General so egotistical to the level of stupidity that he was mouthing off about not taking the Soviet Union seriously.
“I’m the Soviet Union went after Ireland a long time ago.” Alan Wilson replied without a huff, “Cuba and Nicaragua, if next to Britain that’s a big threat, are still a threat to the United States?”
On the volume of these two countries, bring the heart of the fear is greater than the so-called threat, want the United States anxious eyes, at least need a Venezuela this volume of the country, do not even need Brazil, Venezuela such a volume is already enough, probably is a million square kilometers of the country, the size of the population of 30 million, the United States will certainly be anxious eyes.
In fact, the United States has never encountered such an opponent, Mexico is now a fast-growing population, and in the United States on the good neighbor to go down, Mexico has long been an underpopulated country. Which is like the twenty-first century are close to curve the country occupied by the United States to take back the country.
The future of Mexico will become more and more a threat to the United States, but at the outbreak of the U.S.-Mexico war, Mexico empty theoretically large country, the population and the United States compared to Vietnam and a large country compared to about the same, which is like a couple of decades later the population has occupied two-thirds of the United States.
This population size of neighboring countries, is not a country that can be casually kneaded, if Vietnam has a population of 700 million to 800 million, or the Central and Southern Peninsula has a population of 700 million to 800 million, a major country also headache.
As for Cuba and Nicaragua this volume of countries, destined only to find trouble for the United States, can not do to the United States to produce a deadly threat.
Women will not admit that they are wrong, the only place a woman can admit that she is wrong is that she married the wrong person, the Prime Minister is also a woman, naturally, she will not admit that she is wrong, “It is just that the time for results has not yet arrived.”
“If the Prime Minister wants to say that, then Whitehall will still express its firm support for the Prime Minister.” Alan Wilson felt that there was no point in saying more, “I hope that if there really is a crisis, there is still a possibility for me to save it.”
Alan Wilson felt that Mrs. Thatcher should always have some sense, and it seemed to be an error of judgment after all.
Because Pamela Mountbatten was in Germany to discuss the matter of cooperation in the automobile industry, Allen Wilson was at Princess Margaret’s after work, letting Margaret know how powerful he was.
“The waist is going to be broken by you.” Princess Margaret hung in mid-air, wrapping her arms around the man’s neck and begging for mercy, “Put me down, now I’m nervous like this.”
“I’m not taking you to find the feeling of flying in the clouds.” Alan Wilson spoke of supreme authority, there had already been one Margaret who had disobeyed, this one had to be obeyed.
But although there was a small debate with the Prime Minister, but Mrs. Thatcher still did not leak the matter to others, Jeffrey Howe, the Chancellor of the Exchequer inquired about it, the answer was also that the two were discussing how to implement reforms that day, Jeffrey Howe was a little emotional, there are people who are more loyal than him.
In the months since Margaret Thatcher came to power, if anything has changed from before, it is that inflation has become higher, and the number of unemployed people is growing steadily.
Alan Wilson, like a hard-working bee, circled French friends such as Hedy Lamarr and Ingrid Bergman, and German friends such as the Dragoon Sisters, as well as Ms. Monroe, Ms. Hepburn, and Ms. Vivien Leigh, who resided on the mainland, and one had to admit that he really didn’t have the same energy as he had in his younger days or he would have made sure to go to Stockholm to visit Garbo.
“Almost, the acquisition has been finalized, after all, it’s just a sub-brand, the Volkswagen Group is still better to talk to.” Anna had just finished talking to Bokina, informing the Supreme Authority who was resting, “Are the two countries sending a representative to attend together to set up the Mordor automobile production line.”
“I don’t have a problem with that, I’m just a civil servant, how can I get involved in the big events of you business giants.” Alan Wilson let out a light laugh, obviously not very interested in the little dragon rider’s compliments.
“Oh, when you were in the British Occupation Zone back then, you weren’t what you are now oh. Very much an occupying force then.” Anna a low-eyed aggrieved look drops muttering, “the big being with sleep does not hesitate at all, left embrace right embrace but very proud of it.”
“Hey, that is not a special time special circumstances, always mention what is the meaning.” Alan Wilson sad face, even if that is all he did, he later did so many years of contribution, can also make up for it?
From the national level, the Germans did not enjoy the dividends of Yinlang oil interests? From the private level, does the success of the Heilmann Group have its own half of the military medal?
“And what about the movie stars?” Anna reached out her hand and grabbed the handle whispering, “This life can really follow a good master, not aggrieved at all.”
Aggrieved not aggrieved is not important, Alan Wilson is now a role of aggrieved, only today came the news that the Americans may be more aggrieved than him, Yin Lang hostage crisis.
Dependent on his advanced deployment, now the British Embassy in Tehran is an empty shell, and ultimately the Yinlang hostage crisis still fell on the Americans, did not because of Mossadegh’s death and the United Kingdom related to the United Kingdom, transferred to the United Kingdom.
Wasn’t the Yinran hostage crisis caused by the US agreeing to Pahlavi’s coming to the US for medical treatment? When the news came, more than 4,000 students from Tehran, the capital of Yiran, supported by Khomeini, occupied the American Embassy, tore down the American flag and put up a white flag with the words “Allah is great” in its place, and finally detained 52 American diplomats as hostages demanding that the United States hand over Pahlavi.
Alan Wilson, who had had enough, finally reappeared in front of Mrs. Thatcher to hear what the Prime Minister had to say, but did not hear it, so he spoke up and suggested, “I would like to suggest that in the context of the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, I would like to severely attack Yin Lang.”
“Sir, this suggestion is really surprising.” Mrs. Thatcher said in a tone full of connotations, “It seems as if that’s not what you said about Afghanistan.”
“Afghanistan involves the Soviet Union, Yin Lang only involves Yin Lang itself, and the Soviet Union is too strong.” Alan Wilson sounded as if he was speaking from a position of strength, “To tell you the truth, I was wondering if it would be feasible to form a coalition Arab army to attack Yoonlang.”
Mrs. Thatcher thought this was whimsical, but immediately understood that this was a case of doing unto others what they had done unto them, in the connotation that she herself could pretend she didn’t see it coming against Yinlang, but dared to demonstrate against the Soviet Union, which was far too powerful for Yinlang.
Just want to say something, Alan Wilson has already opened his mouth to say goodbye, simply do not give the prime minister the opportunity to show eloquence, the other party’s eloquence is just average, many years ago he personally tasted.
In response to the hostage-taking of the Americans, the revolutionaries claimed that it was completely justified, and that it was retaliation for the years of American support for the former king’s rule and for allowing King Pahlavi to travel to the United States for medical treatment. They also demanded that the U.S. send Pahlavi back to Imran to face trial.
After the hostage situation, there was an uproar in the US. At the critical moment, Britain was the one who supported the U.S. at the diplomatic level, and then? And then there was no more. Britain is still reforming.
