Chapter 335 Sovereignty, and it’s not to be given

Among the contents of the relationship between British India and Nepal, there is a clause that was added after Nehru arrived at the meeting, that is, Nepal and India must get each other’s approval when it comes to foreign military purchases.

As soon as Alan Wilson heard it, he realized that Nehru’s latest, although he did not show up, was hiding on the sidelines and did not hold back any good farts.

If you add this article, it is similar to the friendship treaty signed by the gun party and the United States.

The important disparity in volume between the two countries is as important as the fact that the Cannon Party doesn’t have any warships that can sail into US waters, while its own inland rivers would be used as bathhouses by the US Navy.

It seems to be very fair, but in the future military purchases, India will certainly not be concerned about Nepal’s feelings, want to buy what you buy, this must be recognized as military purchases, the implementation of the provisions of the implementation will certainly become, India’s unilateral clampdown on Nepal.

But the good thing is that Nepal has a certain ability to defend itself, in the Nehru wants to do as the law, and Bhutan and Sikkim plus this clause, Allen Wilson expressed fierce opposition.

“This is trying to control the internal affairs of these two small landlocked countries, respected Mr. Nehru, I humbly say a little bit, in the field of diplomacy, for the time being, you are not the British Empire’s rival. I see that the clause that should be added is not some mutual consent, but an assurance made unilaterally by India not to interfere in the internal affairs of these two countries by any means, either explicitly or implicitly.”

“I would like to emphasize in emphatic terms that Bhutan Sikkim and Nepal, and the future post-independent India have equal status. There is no obligation for anyone to protect or guide anyone, and if India has to impose this obligation, I personally recommend disbanding the Indian Army and declaring India a permanently demilitarized state.”

Allen Wilson’s reaction as if he had blown up silenced the Congress side, and Nehru, who had arrived to face the accusation, retorted, “It is not at all as if India is trying to find a way to annex its neighbor to the north, as Mr. Allen has said.”

“And you’ll have to do it to get it done, or it will be too late when the Royal Navy’s battleships shell Bombay.” Alan Wilson tapped the table rhythmically, as if mimicking the roar of a battleship’s main guns.

“The British lack respect for India.” Delegates on the Congress side of the table hooted and hollered, cheering Nehru on.

“There is no country called India, there is now only a place called British India.” Alan Wilson remonstrated unperturbed, “Don’t take verbal advantage at this point in time, who is not convinced? Fight the British Army in India, if you have to let the British Empire wipe out all traces of modern civilization in the subcontinent before you leave, it’s not impossible.”

“Alan, cut the crap.” Governor Mountbatten had to speak up to round off the conversation, and said to Nehru, “There’s no malice in the fact that they, the administrators, have to guess at intentions from the worst possible perspective.”

This was the first time that Governor Mountbatten, in public, defended Alan Wilson in a very significant way.

For the Viceroy’s defense, Allen Wilson was grateful but would not back down, and in any case just did not agree that there was any obligation, any duty, between India and these neighbors.

No means no, India and these small countries are equals, there is no big brother and little brother relationship. What era is it, Indians still feel good about themselves and play the protectorate thing, is that something India can play?

It’s okay for the British Empire to play this game, but you, a colonial, not-yet-independent party, want to do it? On what grounds?

In the face of Nehru’s so-called reasoned argument, in fact, it is softly coerced, Alan Wilson bluntly spoke, “American friends have always suggested that the British Empire, in order to take care of the interests of the subcontinent as much as possible, proposed that the issue of British India’s independence should be formally discussed at the United Nations, in fact, it is not unreasonable, but the United Nations has so many members, each country proposes a different approach, it’s a lot of people, India’s independence may have to wait a little while, of course, it can also not wait, expect the PML-N and the friends of the Congress Party to have the same patience, don’t have a civil war like your neighbor to the north.”

There is absolutely no way that Allen Wilson could have given India a bit of a see-saw plan, because it seems from the annexation of Sikkim that India was not a nation without much patience, rather it was extremely patient throughout the entire process that led to the rare success of the annexation after World War II.

India’s annexation of Sikkim can hardly be faulted, there are almost no hard feelings. India this annexation behavior alignment can be said to be extremely windy, and India for the annexation of Sikkim this matter seems particularly patient, simply did not leave half a point of words.

India’s annexation of Sikkim relies on patience patience. Indians have long been eyeing Sikkim, the British Empire began to gradually withdraw from the South Asian subcontinent, the Indians have begun the first step of the operation.

Used the way of warm water to boil the frog, first, stabilize Sikkim, sign a treaty with the country to maintain the status quo. At the same time, proxies were used to foster a pro-Indian party there and a government was formed by that party.

At the invitation of the Sikkimese government, the Indian army entered the small country in a dignified manner. By the fifties, Sikkim, having become barely sovereign, became legally an Indian protectorate.

The bottom line is that Sikkim was not a member of the United Nations at the time and did not join it.

Now of course it’s different, Alan Wilson lifted Bhutan Sikkim Nepal into the UN when he was in Europe. It’s on equal footing with India.

Why is that, British India was actually a founding member of the UN, with the same status as the Soviet Union’s Ukraine and Belarus, and the Soviet Union, for fear of being alone, thought that all of its member states, could have one person, one vote, so that the vote would appear to be a crowded one.

Britain and the United States, after negotiations with the Soviet Union, finally agreed to Ukraine and Belarus as members of the United Nations, while the British Empire’s largest colony, British India, and the United States’ largest colony, the United States of America, the Philippines, and Ukraine and Belarus have the same status as the status of the colony, to become a full member of the United Nations.

And Alan Wilson also assured the representatives of the three countries of Bhutan, Sikkim and Nepal, in front of them, that before Britain left, it would count the local population and help the three countries to establish an identity system.

“The independence of British India is a big event for the whole world, and the British Empire will definitely maintain enough transparency to the whole world to prevent the Soviet Union, as well as certain pro-Soviet elements, from questioning the underhandedness.”

As soon as the words fell, the representatives of the three countries, including the Crown Prince of Sikkim, expressed their gratitude to Alan Wilson with a warm applause.

If it were really within the UK, what transparency, he would definitely say, either there is a government or there is transparency, but transparency and government should never be linked together.

But here is British India, this is different, the British Empire has very great expectations for the pearl of the British Empire, what the corrupt British Empire can not do, India must do, about the independence of British India, to do two points at the same time, the first point is absolutely not allow other big countries to interfere.

The second point is the exact opposite of the first point, to let the United States and the Soviet Union clearly see how the British Empire let British India become independent, not only to see British India, by the way, also see Bhutan Sikkim Nepal.

Directly lifting the UN to silence Nehru, Patel, who had already been convinced long ago, had even less objection.

Because the Congress Party also does not want, British India is too transparent, can not how to fight for independence are surrounded by countries around the world. After all, the prestigious big country also has self-respect.

The British Empire can be worshipped behind closed doors, but if a group of countries are watching their every move from the side, it will take a lot of courage to kneel down again.

And if the Congress Party insists on inheriting the British Empire’s suzerainty in the subcontinent, the nonviolence that it has been practicing is absolutely untenable. It’s easy to rope in some countries, but it’s harder than hell to rope in all of them.

The United Nations to discuss what, these leaders of the Congress Party is absolutely unacceptable, and ultimately wanted to secretly engage in action Nehru, by the brain through the memory of the annexation of Sikkim, have a response to the Allen Wilson blocked back.

The content of the Treaty of Amity between British India and the neighboring countries was officially released, Alan Wilson was surrounded by representatives of Bhutan, Sikkim and Nepal to thank, witnessed by General Aung San of Burma.

Allen Wilson was full of ambition and enjoyed the moment of glory in the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Mountbatten and their daughter. On the other side was the silent Congress Party, watching the British being cheered.

“A great nation with a voice? Bullshit!” Alan Wilson murmured in his mind, expressing the same congratulations to the representatives of the three happy countries.

For British India now, it was just a matter of simmering the clock. But as far as London’s perspective is concerned, there is still one big thing for British India, and that is the issue of trade settlement in British pounds.

As soon as this final goal is reached, the British Empire can make a dashing turn and leave this place of wrongdoing.

In fact, when you think about it, Alan Wilson did not do anything to India, only to uphold justice.

Without handing over the suzerainty of the British Empire, he believed that the Congress Party was certainly not dead in the water. But when the time came, it would be a matter of the PML-N and the Congress Party.

“Alan, what are your thoughts on the future? I mean where to work?” Recently when Pamela Mountbatten spoke to her sweetheart, the topic of the future had become significantly more frequent.

“The future, huh?” Alan Wilson glanced at the girl, and since they were asking about work, he was blunt about work, “To become a commissioner in a colony, I’d like to be a decision maker too.”

So far his own ideas were very different from those of the two heads of civil service who were soon to be handed over in London.

“Oh!” Pamela Mountbatten could hardly conceal her loss; the answer was clearly not what she had expected.

“Oh, to take you into holy matrimony.” Allen Wilson finished teasing and gave the girl a guarantee in a serious tone, and Pamela Mountbatten’s face immediately cleared up.
