Chapter 1618 The Value of Balance

“In fact, the prime minister can completely stay for a few more days, the October 1st parade is also a good experience, can be used as the head of state of the participating powers, this woman is still confused.”

Alan Wilson was not very satisfied with Mrs. Thatcher’s itinerary, which was formulated by the Prime Minister herself, if he formulated certainly will be extended to October, how not to see the Terracotta Warriors? See the pandas?

Arnold had just secretly lit a fire under the strikers and the police when he came home to hear his own father judging the Prime Minister, his tone full of hate, and with a raised eyebrow he picked up, “Of course, if father had made the plans, they wouldn’t have been so rushed. But what’s there to see?”

“Things are precious, they do not often parade, the Soviet Union that is once a year are tired of seeing.” Alan Wilson thought, he did not get some videotape back to have a look.

Eighty-fourth parade also has its own unique place, and Vietnam’s rounds of war is still continuing, the spirit of the troops and the later parade can not be compared, in addition to it? There’s not much to say about that. The Strong Five? Or the Boom 6.

In fact, the Soviet system of national parades are very impressive, the GDR parade is also shocking. When you look at them, there are no weak ones.

Didn’t personally attend the scene is certainly some regret, but there are patriotic Chinese Charlotte help look good, this parade is the first time to show the strategic missiles, and then was looking around for security of the dog big house saw, there is a saying that well, a hundred smells as good as a see, there is no have to light up to see, so the dog big house began to think, can not be from the hands of a responsible big country, can it be to bring a sense of security of the weapons.

“I wonder when the Prime Minister will return.” Arnold sat down straight away, not yet in the united family of civil servants, but evidently already presenting the spirit of ownership.

“After the visit is to the United States, offshore balancing well, all have to talk to the relevant countries, I do not know whether to come back to a trip to Paris. I was so suggested, the major powers have gone to not go to Paris is not good, but this woman does not seem to be too interested.”

Alan Wilson spread his hands and said, “The other prime ministers are certainly not afraid to move against the nationalized companies, but there is not so much to worry about.”

“Aren’t you going to put the strike to rest yet? It’s going to hurt the country’s economy.” Pamela Mountbatten, though long ago a citizen of the world, had at least grown up in England and still had feelings for the country. If the strike had lasted more than a year, Britain’s economy wouldn’t have been able to grow.

Alan Wilson responded, “What do you know? This is the inevitable pain that comes with reform, and citizens need to be patient if they want a better tomorrow. At least many state-owned enterprises can still be sold for a while, within a few years the UK will still have no problem maintaining stability, not to mention the communications and electronics industries, Whitehall already has a support program.”

While the family discussion was going on over here, Mrs. Thatcher had completed her visit to Washington, D.C., and was flying there via Xiangjiang and Honolulu to introduce the Mapheads she had discovered and admired to President Reagan, prompting Reagan to adopt a remotely flexible approach to the issue of East-West relations.

As with her first reception of Maphead in London, her rocket flight around the world became the center of international attention.

The prime minister to stop in Paris, by Alan Wilson that this and his own co-leadership of the United Kingdom’s prime minister, is not valued him as the cabinet secretary general’s opinion, when Mrs. Thatcher’s plane landed in Paris, Alan Wilson can not help but nod his head, fortunately, is not like just as prime minister of the time so incomprehensible.

The October 1st parade definitely had a role to play, and Charlotte, who was alone, said that the Riyadh side showed unprecedented enthusiasm when he contacted his own father, and this is the result of the strategic missiles after they participated in the parade, but how could he persuade a certain big country in such a matter as arms sales?

Luckily, the Supreme Authority himself would send a telegram in which he wrote, “No matter what resources are divided by their population, the numbers become small, and this is not just a usual arms sale. It’s also a basis for good relations with the world’s number one oil producer. The Saudis are pretty high up on the list of pacifist countries. What’s more, Saudi Arabia is really rich, so if there are any difficulties, you can discuss them with me through the British embassies in both countries.”

Even after signing the agreement of the century with Britain, Saudi Arabia is still a country with an extremely large cash flow, and while Saudi Arabia certainly has its share of problems, in terms of cash flow, Saudi Arabia is stronger than many countries.

While the supreme authority, Chang Gong, was possessed and guiding the patriotic Chinese to win the battle, Margaret Thatcher was meeting with French President Mitterrand and Prime Minister Chirac.

France is also an important military force in the free world, although Alan Wilson believes that the French military is inferior to Germany, inferior in that the Bundeswehr tanks and armored vehicles add up to tens of thousands.

But in fact also occupies the French army in Algeria, the scale is to be larger than the German Wehrmacht, just in the equipment innovation above some tough.

Seven hundred thousand French troops, its size in the free world second only to the United States, plus Algeria from time to time some instability, resulting in France to bear a large maintenance of stability funds, coupled with the positioning of the French a to do the power, weaponry land, sea, air and naval forces have to be renewed, unlike the German Navy is almost nothing, just focus on the army and air force.

Navy this big money-burning France is still maintaining, now France still has four aircraft carriers, Clemenceau-class aircraft carrier No. 1 ship Clemenceau and Foch two carriers, but also than Alan Wilson memory of the two aircraft carriers of the same name to be larger.

Because he once led the sale of aircraft carriers to France, the French Navy also has two grudge-class aircraft carriers, grudge-class aircraft carriers fully loaded with 30,000 tons, as the French self-developed aircraft carriers if smaller than the British aircraft carriers sold to France? It would be totally unjustifiable.

So in this world, France’s Clemenceau-class aircraft carriers, Clemenceau and Foch, are similar in tonnage to the Eagle-class aircraft carriers that the UK only sold to the Kingdom of Iraq.

Maintaining four aircraft carriers of the French Navy, of course, is rightfully a big burner, France also had to make trade-offs on the land, sea and air forces, anyway, there are half a million Wehrmacht tops, can only be the first to suffer a bitter French Army.

France’s strategy and the United Kingdom is actually similar, the difference is that the army weapons and equipment update, the United Kingdom chose to reduce the size of the army to maintain the frequency of weapons update.

France because Algeria to garrison, so chose to maintain the second largest army in the free world, in the weapons update on the first to let go.

This has led to, now the main equipment of the French land pistols, is still the full weight of thirty-six tons of AMX-30 main battle tanks, the top of the one hundred and five millimeters of line gun for France to support the facade.

In fact, the current Europe, Britain, France and Germany together have nearly two million active military personnel, than the original memory of the Cold War to come out a lot more. This has also led to a strengthening of European autonomy, which is why Margaret Thatcher, in this world, has gone around pretending to be a diplomatic veteran without being unmasked. Where would Reagan have been so polite if it weren’t for the fact that the three European powers, not counting Italy yet, had the military power they have now?

When Mrs. Thatcher returned, Alan Wilson could not wait to ask about the gains, and Mrs. Thatcher started with the trip to the United States, which was of the least interest to the supreme authority, and talked about the Star Wars program one more time.

“The Soviet Union is very strong in space.” Alan Wilson was close to having disinterest written on his face, and he wasn’t putting down the U.S.; the Soviet Union was indeed more powerful in space than the one he remembered. And the US had a Star Wars program that the USSR had to deal with.

In the implementation of the two countries above don’t compare, the election of the country’s commitment to do more implementation of less, and the Soviet Union that kind of national major situation is the unity of words and deeds, the Blizzard space shuttle, salute to the space station are the eighties Soviet Union to deal with the Star Wars program to take out the finished product.

Execution of the United States is at a disadvantage, the United States advantage is that the United States in spending money on the potential than the Soviet Union, the Soviet Union has as much money is how much money, the Soviet Union’s financial system is about equal to zero, and the United States strong financing ability is not on a level.

“We have set the Xiangjiang issue, it will be returned when due, the joint communiqué you should have seen, as for the trip to Paris, the French that kind of unexplained pride, it’s really uncomfortable, if not for the fact that you said a leaders of the countries have met, and it’s not appropriate to put France on the side, I would definitely not go to Paris.” Mrs. Thatcher said with a haughty look.

“How about some respect for France, which still has a pinch on North Africa, and when the generation of resolute resisters grows old, France will be able to swallow North Africa in its mouth. An absolute European power.” Alan Wilson bristled, “If we lose our overseas territories cleanly, we’ll have to look at the French in Europe to get by in the future.”

Mrs. Thatcher, after all, the most important diplomacy, or a trip to the United States, even if Allen Wilson is not interested, she also said, and ultimately really talked about an idea mentioned by Reagan.

Allen Wilson heard, this is the idea of the INF treaty, spoke, “This is the most in line with the interests of Germany’s idea, Reagan to do what? And in exchange for which German concessions?”

His first thought was the Plaza Accord, the United States used the INF treaty in exchange for Germany’s acquiescence to bloodletting is possible, after all, in this era, Germany has a huge unity value. Being on the front line of the Cold War, the U.S. woolgathering wouldn’t be too much, and it was completely different from decades later.

Just as Alan Wilson was thinking, Margaret Thatcher continued, “I think it is possible to use Britain’s influence in this regard to bring about a reduction in nuclear weapons on both sides. It would be to our advantage.”

“Especially as Britain and France are excluded from the treaty between the United States and the Soviet Union on reductions.” It suddenly struck Alan Wilson that it wasn’t all bad for Maphead to be in power, and on this unfair conceit alone, any other Soviet leader really wouldn’t have agreed.
