British Civil Servant

Before Alan Wilson and his party arrived, Princess Badia had already arrived in Basra, and announced to the public that it was to mediate this round of oil disputes between the United Kingdom and Iran. It must be said that this statement suddenly made the people of the Kingdom of Iraq Accepted.

"Iraqis want to mediate our differences with Iran?" Alan Wilson's expression of discovering the new world, where did the Iraqis come from? But then he said, "Well, it's not incomprehensible from Baghdad's point of view. What we are most concerned about is a good outcome."

The Kingdom of Iraq is currently the largest Christian country in the Middle East, and is regarded as the center of Christians in the Middle East. This is different from future generations. In fact, for a country, the most likely victims of war are the ethnic minorities of the country.

As far as Basra is concerned, it is still in the radiation area of ​​Iraqi Shiites. Alan Wilson, who arrived in Basra, visited many mullahs with humility. degree of convenience.

"Commissioner, are we going to do this?" Seeing that Alan Wilson was about to put on his Arabian robes, Lord Markins of Sheffield, who had come one step ahead of himself, asked with a constipated expression.

He straightened the scalp on top of his head, put on a headband, and looked in the mirror for a moment. Alan Wilson smiled contentedly at himself in the mirror, "Markins, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has to do as the Romans do, since we are in Arabia. Where people are, the easiest way to express appreciation is to wear each other's clothes."

"Yeah, do as the locals do!" Markins looked strangely at Alan Wilson who was going to do as the locals did, opened a bottle of champagne in front of him, and didn't forget to pour himself a glass, full of amazement, " But as far as I know, Arabs don't drink."

"No, the Arabs in the upper classes drink alcohol. The so-called strict rules and regulations are all to better manage the population at the bottom and make them follow the rules. Therefore, when they follow the local customs, they must also add some flexibility."

Alan Wilson took a sip of his whiskey, as if his spirits had been lifted a lot, and continued, "And these Shiite religious leaders have also helped, so the joint invitation is a solidarity for us, if Tehran can give positive feedback Wouldn’t it be a good thing to respond? After all, Mossadegh is a prime minister of a country. If he can come in person, from a diplomatic perspective, we cannot have a prime minister come in person unless Prime Minister Attlee can come in person.”

"Just one Iranian prime minister, let our prime minister come forward in person?" Makins snorted lightly, indicating that this was a joke.

Markins' idea was right. Before World War II, Alan Wilson's current level would be enough to hold a meeting with Mossadegh himself, let alone the Prime Minister of the British Empire, and even the ministers of the British Empire did not need to show up.

But now it's different. You can't use previous experience to cover the present. So Alan Wilson acquiesced to Princess Badia's claim that the Kingdom of Iraq would mediate this time the British and Iranian oil revenue differences.

This was completely impossible before. The Iraqi royal family was all supported by the United Kingdom. It was like a joke that Su Yang wanted to mediate the differences between Alan Wilson and Sukarno.

Alan Wilson thought this was not enough. He even paid special visits to the Shiite leaders in Iraq and asked them to use their religious influence to induce Mosaddegh to come in person.

The reason for this is that Iraq is the center of Shia, although the current royal family of the Kingdom of Iraq is Sunni.

Don't look at Iran as if there are more Shiites, but the holy city of Shiites, apart from the well-known Mecca and Medina, Najaf and Karbala are all in Iraq.

The real Shia break with mainstream Sunnis began with the martyrdom of Hussein, whose blood reinvigorated the Shiite faith, and Hussein was buried in Karbala, Iraq.

Due to the existence of the two most important holy places in the eyes of the two Shiites, and the fact that several Shiite Imams lived here for a long time in Iraq, they wrote books and were buried here, especially in the Imams After Mu Jafar founded the Shi'ite Jafar School of Jurisprudence, he basically determined the mainstream beliefs of Shi'ism.

In terms of religious status, Iraq is many times higher than Iran’s. Iran can hold high the Shiite flag, and I also want to thank Saddam for suppressing the Shiites in the country without a breather, otherwise there will be no Tehran to speak. portion?

Alan Wilson has always used whatever favorable conditions exist. Iraq is the center of Shiites, so before the negotiation, he made Iraqi Shiite leaders stand with him.

This does not delay him in an Arabian robe and directly walks around with Princess Badia to make some preparations for the next negotiation. In fact, Princess Badia is a good-looking girl. If you put it in the previous years, Alan Wilson might be able to Think about whether there is a chance to get on a halal car, but now with the increase of age, the mind in this regard has faded.

"I'm very grateful to Her Royal Highness for her help in this matter. Pamela didn't come this time. If she came, I think you should have a very common language." Alan Wilson thanked with a smile, "Britain has always been Values ​​the unique position of the Kingdom of Iraq in the Middle East, and is happy to see Iraq prosper."

"We can only give a platform, and what kind of results can be achieved depends on Mr. Wilson's ability." Princess Badia looked at Alan Wilson in an Arabian robe and said with some amusing, "Mr. Wilson really embodies the British tradition. flexibility.”

"Everyone said that." Alan Wilson said, throwing off his robe, "I'm complimenting me by being a princess."

In terms of the climate in the Middle East, this time of year is extremely hot, even Alan Wilson, who has been working in Kuala Lumpur for a long time, can't stand it. After taking off his suit Arab robes, the heat has eased a little.

News that Britain, on the advice of the Kingdom of Iraq, is preparing to start negotiations with Iran on oil distribution in Basra. It is now a well-known fact in Iran.

At the same time, I also learned that both the Iraqi royal family and religious leaders have made invitations to Mosaddegh. Since the onset of the oil crisis, Iran has suffered from a British blockade of raw materials for more than a year.

The share of oil originally belonging to Iran is being rapidly replaced by Iraq, and cracks have appeared in Mosaddegh's alliance. Of course, the United Kingdom can use the Royal Navy, which is still strong at this time, to isolate Iran's imports and exports, but it has been criticized for a year.

Now that both sides have their own difficulties, it is actually even more time to restart negotiations at this time.

In view of this, Mossadegh made the decision to negotiate in person in the face of the invitation of the Iraqi royal family and religious leaders.

At this time, Alan Wilson made a public speech in Basra, "London is very happy about Iran's positive response to the negotiation. But about the previous move by Iran to seek other countries to replace the British support, London does not like it, it has always been a British threat. No other country can threaten Britain."

Alan Wilson is in charge of negotiating with Iran, but this time the oil crisis is not just a matter of Britain and Iran. In Washington, the task of the ambassador to the United States is to remind the United States that the United Kingdom is opposed to the stability of the European situation. Great help from the United States, especially before the Korean War was over.

Not to mention that the Berlin crisis has not ended to this day. The United States and the Soviet Union fought a war of words over Berlin. The West Berlin Wall is getting taller day by day, and the population fleeing West Berlin is endless. On the other hand, the Korean War has not ended.

If the United States does not support the United Kingdom in the matter of Iran, what if the United States, which has now been involved in the energy of both ends of the Eurasian continent, will be taken advantage of by the Soviet Union in Iran? You can think of the consequences for yourself!

In 1945, the United States might have to think more about the threat to Britain or the Soviet Union. But by 1952, the United States had become very clear that the Soviet Union was definitely a bigger threat than Britain. Even now the strength of the UK is still there!

The ambassador to the United States told the United States bluntly that if the United States does not support the United Kingdom on the Iran issue, then the United Kingdom will not support the United States on the Berlin issue and the North Korea issue.

After receiving the telegram from the ambassador to the United States, Alan Wilson waited for Mossadegh to come to the door after receiving the statement that the United States understood the British.

At this moment~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Alan Wilson received a telegram from his wife Pamela Mountbatten from Paris. The first thing was that General Mountbatten had been confirmed to be in office at the end of the month. Ling related, Turing was arrested by the police.

"My God!" Alan Wilson, who received the telegram, saw one thing between the lines, that is, his wife's doubts about him, and immediately called back to accuse his wife of whimsy, saying that if he was not going to fight with Iran soon If you negotiate, you must fly back to spank her right now.

Now is not the time to be entangled in these trivial matters, he himself has to negotiate with the Iranians. Regarding the Turing matter, Pamela Mountbatten should suppress the matter first, and it is best to save Turing himself and talk about it.

"What's so strange, there are homosexuals in Whitehall, and I didn't see anyone making a fuss. Turing is a rather dull person, dear, you save the person first, other things can be dealt with slowly, and you are doubting me, I When you go back, you will be slapped in the face with a stick!"

Pamela Mountbatten, who covered her face, looked at the explicit description on the telegram and couldn't calm down for a long time, and decided to take Turing out of the police station first and talk.

She is also regretting it. How can she suspect that her husband has a problem? Obviously, there are so many tricks in that kind of thing, and it is impossible to think about it.

At the end of June, the UK-Iran negotiation, which is of great concern in the Middle East, officially began with the arrival of Iranian Prime Minister Mossadegh in Basra.
