British Civil Servant
Chapter 150: solidarity meeting
"When Goa belonged to Portugal, the Mughal Empire was not established, and the Indians had no reason to take him away from Portugal." Olivia was indignant and said at the same time, "I believe that the British Empire will Take a leadership role in this matter and defend the legitimate rights and interests of the European civilized world."
This man may not know that London's opinion of abandoning British India has gradually gained the upper hand. Of course, Alan Wilson couldn't tell the other party, he just said, "Goa belonged to Portugal long before the establishment of the Mughal Empire. All the countries present today know this fact, and we all recognize it. However, it is specific to India. As for people, this issue is more complicated, especially for Indians, many Indians say that India has existed since ancient times, and Goa may not be part of the Mughal Empire, but it may be part of the Mauryan Dynasty.”
"What kind of nonsense logic is this?" Olivia said with anger and dissatisfaction, "Is there any more shameless logic than this, what do those dirty South Asians think."
Alan Wilson is silent, this is nothing more than the Indian version of the ancient times. Since ancient times, this statement has always been self-talk and used to persuade the people of the country to support it. No matter how **** it must be said!
It is generally discussed at the point of time when the greatest interests are intercepted, so the Chinese version starts from the largest territory in 1820. Although the Western Regions of the Han and Tang Dynasties are also under the control of the central government, they are rarely publicized. In fact, China also knows It's too nonsense to promote something from one or two thousand years ago.
But since ancient times, India, which is in line with India's national conditions, has been a little too shameless. It is almost equivalent to today's Iran, holding the Achaemenid Dynasty to show that Iran should rule the Middle East.
However, it seems that during the Pahlavi Dynasty, Iran did focus on promoting the glory of the Achaemenid Dynasty, saying that it was not the same number as the Arabs, and it considered itself the Middle East agent of the United States.
Leaving aside the issue of Iran, Olivia clarified Portugal's position on the Goa issue. Is it useful at this Brussels meeting? Of course it is useful. After expressing her position, representatives of various countries expressed their solidarity with Portugal's proposition. Expressed firm support for Portugal's claim to overseas territories.
In the final analysis, this is not just a problem faced by Portugal, it is a problem faced by all countries participating in the meeting at this time. The Netherlands and Belgium have expressed their support for Portugal. All eyes were on the representatives of Britain and France.
Whoops! The hearts of the people are available! Alan Wilson knew in his heart that the colonial issue was the most united issue for the participating countries, but he did not expect such a smooth start.
For a time, Alan Wilson had the feeling of being linked to the six countries. First, the Soviet Union was killed, and then the American Empire was destroyed. The British Empire would continue to be great and lead the world for a hundred years.
However, giving Portugal support is beyond Alan Wilson's authority. He cannot give Olivia the support he wants. After the meeting, the Secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Secretary of the Cabinet, and the approval of the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs and even the Prime Minister will do.
What British India needs now is stability, and anything that undermines the stability of British India must be cautious.
"We have a moral understanding of Portugal's claims, and the support of various countries is also gratifying." Alan Wilson, as if immersed in the banner of a united Europe, said with emotion, "We can't go the old way, after the two world wars. , Europe has a long-lost unity, and with this unity, I believe that at this critical juncture in history, we will be able to find a way out for Europe to continue to prosper."
The warm applause sounded, Alan Wilson took a deep breath, and finally managed to pass the test, avoiding his position on the Portuguese Goa. Although the Goa issue may still be mentioned, after this meeting, there were Time to discuss, you can come up with a response plan.
Alan Wilson took the initiative to say hello to the Portuguese representative Olivia, but almost didn't come back, after barely passing the border. Finally ushered in the savior of the Dutch.
The representative of the Netherlands, George Armand, actually wanted to be the first to speak, but he didn't expect the British representative to make a polite statement. The Portuguese representative seized the opportunity and extended the Goa issue. Now that the Goa issue is finally over, he immediately Can't wait to stand up.
Compared with other countries, the Netherlands has the greatest expectations for this meeting, because Japan has not formally surrendered, and the Indonesians in the Dutch East Indies have declared their independence. Now the Netherlands urgently needs the support of the countries in the Brussels meeting. At the same time, the army was mobilized to the Dutch East Indies to suppress.
Sukarno and Hatta signed the "Declaration of Independence", proclaiming the establishment of the Republic of Indonesia, and the news has spread to Europe. On the one hand, the representative of the Netherlands, George Armand, criticized Japan, which had become a defeated country. On the other hand, he said that the Netherlands would never sit idly by and would definitely protect its sacred territorial sovereignty.
sovereignty? Alan Wilson almost laughed. In his impression, European countries all talk about human rights. In this era, European countries are also talking about sovereignty, which is sacred and inviolable.
After George Armand's speech, it was the Belgian representative who spoke in the capacity of the host. After calling for unity, he introduced the situation of the Belgian Congo, which is also the only important Belgian colony.
Belgian colonization is particularly late, with Belgian colonization of the Congo beginning at the end of the nineteenth century. King Leopold II of Belgium tried to persuade the Belgian government to support the then colonial expansion of the Congo.
By the beginning of the twentieth century, local indigenous violence had led to many revolts due to the violent exploitation of foreign colonists. The Belgian government then established formal colonial rule and effectively controlled the Congo region.
The late exploits are cruel. Alan Wilson's impression of the Belgian Congo is that of Belgium's beheading punishment. In Belgian Congo, more than 10 million disabled people have been created. It can be seen that the smaller the country, the more likely it is to have a chance to ascend to heaven. There will be no room left.
However, the Belgian government has deprived the king of the power of life and death in the Congo. The cutting of hands has been decades ago, and the crimes of colonization are being washed away by time. Behind the independence of the Congo, there are shadows of the United States and the Soviet Union, but the competition for the Congo is obviously superior to the United States.
And now the inner thinking of the British Empire is that the six countries participating in the Brussels Conference can clarify their own scope of operation, and to a certain extent, give other friendly allies who can take care of them, and support within their capabilities.
When the representatives of the Spanish conference spoke, their attitude was much more modest. Regarding the ambiguous relationship between General Franco and Germany and Italy during the war, although the representatives of Britain and France did not mention it at the conference, the representatives of Spain knew very well that if they did not mention it, they would not represent Things never happened.
On the contrary, the United Kingdom and France just felt that there was no need to attack now, so the Spanish representative first expressed his goodwill to the United Kingdom and France. Spain is indeed walking on thin ice now. Not to mention the attitudes of the United Kingdom and France, the United States has the intention to kill Spain.
And the US's opponent, the Soviet Union, just like the US, can't wait to eat Spain.
Spain even came close to joining the Axis powers during World War II. In order to win over Spain, the United States satisfied Spain's appetite and gave Spain huge aid in exchange for Spain's neutrality.
But after World War II, the United States naturally couldn't swallow this bad breath. It had to settle accounts with Spain after the autumn, and was ready to clean up Spain.
There is also a personal reason. The Catholics in Spain are not only hostile to the Republicans, but also to the Protestants, which makes the Protestant-dominated America, especially President Truman, furious.
As for the Soviet Union, Spain sent tens of thousands of volunteers to form the Blue Division during the war. Spanish soldiers dressed in German uniforms followed the German army to invade the Soviet Union. The blue divisions are all elites selected from the Spanish army. They are all veterans with rich combat experience, and they have a **** feud with the Soviet Union.
The reason why Spain participated in the Brussels Conference this time was strongly facilitated by the United Kingdom. France is still closing its border with Spain. In the history of the Marshall Plan, Spain is not among the European aid countries. Similarly, when Spain joined the United Nations, it caused a fierce opposition from the Soviet Union.
If it weren't for the Brussels conference this time, Britain would not have a good opinion of Spain if it had to convene the few remaining colonial powers in Europe.
Franco is simply the predecessor of the Grand Duke. In 1945, he made the British, American, Soviet and French countries upset at the same time, and he even retreated completely, protecting the interests of Spain.
After the representatives of various countries expounded their opinions on the protection of the interests of the colonies, the time has come to the afternoon.
On the afternoon of September 14th~www.wuxiaspot.com~ About the Brussels meeting, the talks about the reconstruction of the European economy appeared in the Belgian newspapers, which were quickly reprinted by the participating countries.
In the eyes of the citizens of the meeting, it was a meeting of Britain, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain to discuss post-war reconstruction and economic recovery.
However, the representatives of various countries at the meeting were talking about colonies throughout, and the part involving post-war reconstruction and economic recovery. On the first day of the meeting, it was limited to the British Foreign Secretary, Ernest Bevin, at the beginning of the meeting. speech at the time.
On the first day of the meeting, the countries of the meeting had a certain understanding of each other's attitudes. After the end, Alan Wilson left immediately and reported to Alexander Cadogan. The two reported the meeting to Cabinet Secretary Edward Bridges together, and Clear answers to many questions.
"We just got the news that the Soviet Union announced the start of post-war reconstruction." Edward Bridges said slowly, "It seems that we have the same goal, to restore the wounds of the war first."
After saying such a sentence for no reason, Edward Bridges added, "The Prime Minister has already said that he is very interested in the military actions of the Netherlands."
