Chapter 1674: The Eve of Dramatic Change

Never in decades had Europe been so neatly touted; there were always exceptions, such as some murmurings within Britain, but the supreme authority that had already been greeted with the press kept the murmurings to a level that was not known to the common man.

“Remind the Americans of what? Have those Atlanticist legislators left the United States unable to solve the problem?” Ellen Wilson returned home to the richest woman who was about to go to Perth for the winter.

In the eyes of the Atlantic faction, the two superpowers on nuclear disarmament negotiations, can not help but touch the United States and the United Kingdom and the United Kingdom and the Soviet Union “intermediary” as the sensitive nerves of the United Kingdom.

Through the deployment of American cruise missiles and Panshin missiles in Western Europe, the West finally forced the Soviet Union to come to the negotiating table and agree to withdraw its medium-range missiles deployed in Europe.

In this regard, the imminent signing of the INF Agreement shows that it is a welcome outcome of the continuous efforts made by the West over the years. However, this Agreement is both a golden egg and a hot potato.

In Mrs. Thatcher’s eyes, if this trip can not make the United States and the Soviet Union “INF” reduction of the scope of the agreement is limited to land-based missiles.

If not deployed in West Germany on the territory of the short-range missile modernization, it will make Western Europe and NATO separation, so that Western Europe is exposed to the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact countries dominant conventional weapons and chemical weapons in front of and incapable of being an enemy, and the NATO countries of the “flexible response” strategy will become a piece of paper, especially in West Germany, the British forces in West Germany will be the loss of the nuclear The British forces in West Germany, in particular, will lose their nuclear umbrella and will find it difficult to exist.

Therefore, the negotiation on the nuclear armament of the United States and the Soviet Union is directly related to the security interests of Britain itself, and Mrs. Thatcher, as the British Prime Minister, could not turn a blind eye to it.

In fact, in the eyes of the Atlanticists are not eager to push nuclear disarmament forward, these people believe that the mutual destruction theory of nuclear weapons not only deterred the outbreak of nuclear war, but also the most effective means of deterrence against conventional war, an important factor in Europe since World War II to be able to live in peace.

“Obviously the Soviet Union suffered a great deal.” Pamela Mountbatten relayed the popular conclusion from the comparison of US and Soviet medium-range missile cuts, “Isn’t it?”

“The Soviet Union has eighteen hundred medium-range missiles and the United States has less than nine hundred. In numbers of course the Soviet Union takes a big loss.” Alan Wilson replied with an expressionless face, “But the Soviet Union is right in Europe, and the United States is separated by an Atlantic Ocean, so the Soviet Union has the advantage when comparing conventional military power. Of course, the signing of the INF treaty is also advantageous to Britain, which is also in Europe.”

So the gains and losses of the INF treaty can’t be seen in numbers, the US was geographically well positioned, so that led to a situation where the Soviet Union, while having a numerical advantage in intermediate range missiles, did not actually have it.

To put this INF treaty in perspective, the only people who dared to say I won were Europe, not either the U.S. or the USSR, “And it’s a U.S.-Soviet treaty, and it’s not like it includes the U.K. or France, so I just can’t fathom what the hell all those Atlanticists were objecting to.”

But fortunately, such voices were silenced, and now the UK is the one to set the example of the great power in charge, overseeing the destruction of intermediate-range missiles deployed on both sides of Europe in a step-by-step fashion. Better yet, it was ahead of schedule, and it was only after hearing her husband’s point that Pamela Mountbatten said, “It looks like the U.S. is only winning on the surface.”

“Reagan’s certainly on a better level than Maphead, but is it?” Alan Wilson paused as he said this and said, “Stronger isn’t quite as obvious, there’s been a downturn in the U.S. economy in the last two years.”

Of course, this is only compared to the first term of Reagan slipped, in fact, the U.S. economic data is still quite okay, a large country in these two years inflation is very serious, the U.S. economic data in the Americas is even more cranky, and the U.S. in stark contrast to the Latin American countries and Reagan the first term of the inflation rate hike is almost the same time, did not fall down at all.

Allen Wilson could tell from history that the effects of Reagan’s chicken blood would wear off immediately. The consequences were all taken by the President Bush Sr. who came after him, otherwise where would be Zipton’s famous line, stupid, the problem is the economy?

“So what do you think, the U.S. economy is going to be in trouble.” Pamela Mountbatten does not fill believe the rhetorical question, should not ah, now the United States economic growth rate and three percent it.

“Maybe it’s next year, but it should be better than the Soviet Union, which has been in power for more than two years at the head of the map, every year is negative growth.” Alan Wilson hesitated and gave his own prediction of the time, because of the existence of the pound area, the United States this round of exchange rate tide can not be compared with that the pound has been checked out of the world, the effect deserves to be faded early to be right.

Maybe Bush Sr. won’t have to take the fall, and in Reagan’s last year the US economy will be at zero percent or one percent, the latter being a bit more likely, and you can change the statistics if you can’t.

This time of year can be considered the eve of dramatic change, and all Allen Wilson can do is prepare early for a favorable position, but it seems that someone is one step ahead of him, South Korea!

Roh Tae-woo had just replaced Junior General Jeon as the spokesman for half of the Korean Peninsula, and then immediately opened a diplomatic offensive to inaugurate the presidency, which startled Allen Wilson, if he remembered correctly it seemed like it should have been almost two years later, so how could it have started now.

At the same time as the unstable situation in Eastern Europe, South Korea likewise opened a diplomatic offensive, the purpose of which was, of course, to establish diplomatic relations with the Eastern European bloc headed by Su Lin. This was supposed to happen two years later, during which time it was accompanied by the Seoul Olympics, where South Korea thrashed the free world, but it took an obsequious move toward the Soviet bloc to sort of get things done.

The Supreme Authority remembers the Seoul Olympics, where the US not only didn’t even get second, but was third in the standings behind the GDR, and where South Korea made a breakthrough in diplomacy with the Soviet bloc by serving up the Soviet Union, the strongest of the Soviet bloc, and the GDR, the strongest of the economic bloc, through the Olympics.

“Was it because of Malaya?” Alan Wilson meditated on the fact that East Asia was now more crowded, and although Malaya only had twenty-five million people, it was after all squeezed into a high-income region.

Malaya can be compared to Japan, not to mention the repeated prediction of the direction of South Korea’s raking in the money Allen Wilson, focusing on squeezing the existence of South Korea and Fraud Island.

South Korea’s situation in East Asia is far more treacherous than the other world, and it’s clear that on the point of living from the dead, South Korea has much more guts than Fraud Island, and has begun to try to get some markets to supplement itself in the other half of the Soviet-controlled world, something Fraud Island doesn’t have.

“It looks like there is a huge possibility that the Olympics will go cold next year. Alan Wilson a next year, it seems that only the Seoul Olympics counts as something to focus on, once the cold, Newfoundland will not make a lot of money, money this thing who will be too much it?

There is still a whole year next year, can be laid out in the Eastern European countries, Allen Wilson decided to take good care of it, and strive to show a good state of mind in the back stabbing.

At the arrival of the New Year in 1988, the poor empty nester, the single cabinet secretary general, the lone supreme authority, came to Hepburn’s place for New Year’s Eve dinner, and the next day he couldn’t wait to showdown with Hepburn’s son, Sheehan, “It’s almost time, and in a week you’ll be stationed in Kiev to supervise the local business on my behalf. ”

Alan Wilson’s tone was unquestioning, he’d sired so many children to be used in a pinch, and if not, the fatherly love would be gone.

“Listen to your father.” Hepburn likewise sided with Alan Wilson, “Be a successful man, not a bum, or people will look down on you.”

If it was just herself alone, it would be fine, but if the other women’s children were all very take-it-or-leave-it, Hepburn’s heart was unbalanced, and her own children couldn’t be worse than the other women’s children.

Turning his head, Alan Wilson went to find the Home Secretary to discuss, about the Conservative Party has been in power for a long time, the British economy revitalized, should be carried out some positive measures, such as some on the economic crimes, can be discretionary sentence remission.

This amnesty power is actually in the hands of the Queen, but the Queen herself cannot propose it, so it is necessary for the Conservative government to take the initiative to propose, and the Queen agrees to such a process.

Douglas Hurd is actually nothing special, and to say that there is something special is that in the midst of the perception that most of the Conservative Party felt that Churchill was a national hero, Douglas Hurd was more appreciative of Chamberlain, and advocated a positive assessment of Chamberlain.

Alan Wilson agrees with this, and he even has a record of oral evidence provided by Hess when he was still alive, absolutely professional, and who made him a photographer too?

After a frank face-to-face opening, Douglas Hurd agreed that there should actually be an amnesty for some less harmful economic crimes, and two days later this proposal began to be discussed in the Cabinet and was passed with a lot of pushing from his good friends.

The Queen then agreed with the Cabinet’s decision to use the power of amnesty to pardon a group of economic offenders in the size of about fifty people, Ross directly found this group of people, bluntly stated for Great Britain to build a career time has come, nothing is for nothing, pardon is likewise not, now the country needs your talent, use it in the place where it should be used.

As for the Malayan and Xiangjiang side, the same day there is also a group of economic offenders released from prison, the Asian side of the matter is much simpler, the local administrator has this power.

Not long after, these economic criminals who had never killed a single person with their own hands and were defined as having committed minor crimes, had gathered in Vienna and were grouped into the team formed by Heydrich.

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little early, I heard that Lech Walesa, the leader of the Polish Solidarity Union, was released from house arrest and is able to operate openly again.” Alan Wilson gripped the microphone and said, “It’s time to get started and get the structure in place this year.”
