The Rise of the Third Reich
Chapter 1049 From the Community to the United States 5
On June 22, 1944, the European Community Leaders' Meeting was drawing to a close. There were five main topics discussed at this meeting.
The first topic was to accept the Russian Empire as a formal member of the European Community. Now the White Russians not only took Petrograd and surrounded Moscow, but also took most of the territory in the European part of Russia. Although it may not be possible to restore the entire empire immediately, half of the western part of the country has been taken. Moreover, Germany also expected Russia to send more than 1.5 million officers and soldiers to participate in the war in America. In this case, of course, it is necessary to give some sweetness and accept the Russian Empire as a formal member of the European Community.
The second topic was to accept the Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland as observers of the European Community - similar to the previous status of the Russian Empire, equivalent to alternate members of the European Community. They can participate in the European Common Market and can participate or not participate in the European Mark Zone. They are also more flexible in foreign policy and can continue to maintain a neutral position, but they must be pro-European Community neutrality.
The third topic is the continued war of the European Community against the United States and the obligation of various countries to send troops.
The fourth topic of discussion is linked to the second topic, which is the distribution of US war reparations. Only the EC member states that sent troops are eligible to participate in the distribution, while the member states that did not send troops are not eligible to participate in the distribution. In addition, the number of troops sent (not only the number of people, but also the weapons and equipment) is directly linked to the distribution.
The fifth discussion is the most controversial, which is to discuss the establishment of the United States of Europe.
From the Community to the United States is not as simple as changing the name, but it is a real move. There is a unified navy, air force and nuclear weapons, a unified parliament, a unified constitution, a unified Supreme Court, and a United States government and a supreme head of state. As for the unified market, unified currency and free migration of the population, let alone. All these measures that are conducive to unification will become the glue of the political system, firmly gluing together the originally disintegrating Europe.
A truly unified Europe (in fact, it is not the whole of Europe, but the unification of most of Europe) is very beneficial to the long-term interests of the people of European countries, but the history of European countries becoming nation-states is too long, and the national consciousness is very strong. It is not easy to merge into one.
Therefore, none of the leaders of the participating countries dared to give an absolutely definite answer to this question - some expressed support, but required a referendum; some simply believed that the conditions were not ripe and required the second or third batch to become formal members of the United States of Europe...
Although there were still doubts about the number of members of the United States of Europe in the early days of its establishment, there was no doubt that this country would emerge after the end of World War II! Therefore, on the 20th, the night when the Declaration of the United States of Europe was passed, a celebratory dinner was held in the Germania Palace (the residence of the German Empire government in Europa Castle).
The dinner had not officially started yet, and Hitler, Hessmann, Goering, Schacht and others were drinking beer or water (Hitler did not drink) while waiting for guests from various countries to arrive.
Hitler said he was sure of referendums in only a few countries; he believed that only countries with strong Germanic blood and very pro-German politics (or completely controlled by Germany) such as Norway, Denmark, Belgium, Croatia-Hungary, Finland, Poland, Bohemia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Lithuania, Little Russia and Belarus, and of course Germany itself, would definitely become the first members of the United States of Europe after the war.
As for other countries, especially the three real powers of Britain, France and Russia, there was considerable uncertainty about their choices.
"I think the choice of the English will determine the future of the United States," said Hersman. "We must have a strong will on this issue. The English cannot enjoy the same rights as the French and Russians - not joining the United States, but staying in the European Community!" "Imperial Marshal, I think the British will withdraw from the European Community with the happiest mood." Fatty Goering took a big sip of beer, "The British have different ideas from the French and Russians. They may not join the United States for the time being, but they are absolutely loyal to the European Community. But the British don't think of themselves as Europeans at all!" Hersman glanced at the fat man and just smiled coldly: "The British are not qualified to choose between two kinds of happiness. They are a defeated country and the source of disasters on the European continent - they have been spreading disasters on our continent since two or three hundred years ago. If we let them off now, they will once again become enemies of the European continent in the future." "Imperial Marshal, how do you want to treat Britain?" Hitler, who has always been more pro-British, asked with a frown. "Britain is a defeated country!" Hessman said calmly, "but they are not treated as a defeated country now. This is because they are of the same ethnic group as us and may join us. But we must never let the British Empire be reborn with the help of the wealth and power of the European Community! If the British people choose not to join, then they must bear the responsibility for the defeat... The British Empire must die, die completely!" The biggest reason why the British are isolated from Europe is nothing more than that their eternal overseas empire is too big and too rich. But now the defeated Britain has no ability to maintain its overseas empire and can only rely on the power of the European Community.
If Britain can continue to rely on the European Community to maintain its empire without joining the United States of Europe, then Britain can rely on the blood transfusions of its overseas empire to recover after the war.
The stronger Britain becomes, the more psychologically the British will become alienated from Europe!
He took a sip of beer and added: "And the UK cannot be allowed to remain in the European Common Market, nor can it be allowed to become the financial center of the European Mark Zone!"
The UK is an industrial country with a developed financial industry. So as long as the UK can remain in the European Common Market and become the financial center of Europe, even if it loses its world empire, the UK can still become rich and developed again - just like in history!
But Hersman would never give the British such a chance!
They had to choose the United States or poverty.
He said: "If the English make the wrong choice, then they must pay the price! The English world empire must be completely collapsed, the British economy must be completely bankrupt, and the British people must lose all their benefits. They will never, ever Living in poverty and despair!”
"This is too cruel." Göring seemed to sympathize with the British.
"Is it cruel?" Hessman glanced at him. "If Britain is victorious now, how do you think Churchill will deal with us?"
"They can join the United States at any time!" Hitler disagreed. "Ludwig is right. Although we are willing to treat the British well, it does not mean that we should condone the British. They have always been the destroyers of European unity. If allowed When they regain their strength, they will still cause trouble for us.”
"Yes," Dr. Schacht, president of the European Union Bank, also agreed with Hersman's point of view. "From an economic and human perspective, the poor usually envy the rich, and the rich will discriminate against the poor. And the British The continued disdain for the European continent is also related to the fact that the British economy has always been relatively developed and surpassed the European continent. Moreover, the British economy itself is relatively competitive. Its industrial foundation is good, its education system is complete, and its legal system is also conducive to economic development. If Britain continues to retain its colonies and is a member of the European Community, Britain may become very wealthy after the world war. However, a very wealthy Britain will definitely discriminate against the relatively poor European continent.
If we are ultimately going to make Britain a member of Europe, then Britain should not be given the chance to get rich. "
Hessmann said at this time: "I think... we should let the UK hold a referendum before Russia and France, allowing the English to choose between the hell of freedom and the rich Europe. And then Russia, but Russia They must remain in the European Community, the door of the United States is always open to them, and France should vote after the results of the Russian vote.”
If the British come from outside Europe, then the Russians are just the opposite. They are trying to squeeze into the big family of Europe. However, the Russian nation is also very proud, and there is a question mark over whether it will join the United States of Europe.
Hersman put down his beer glass and analyzed: "Russia has actually lost Ukraine now, so it can never be strong again. In the future, Russia will become Europe's supplier of energy, resources and agricultural products, as well as a supplier of industrial products." market. So we cannot kick Russia out of the European Community. We should keep Russia and use US compensation funds to help Russia recover its economy...Russia will be a hen that lays golden eggs in the future!
As for France... let it be the last to vote. If any country among Britain and Russia votes to join the United States of Europe, then France will inevitably join. If neither Britain nor Russia joins, then give France better conditions! For example, if French and German are listed as official languages of the United States of Europe, France will appear to be on an equal footing with Germany, and it will definitely join the United States of Europe. As long as France joins the United States of Europe, the process of European integration will be irreversible. Sooner or later, Britain and Russia will join, and the United States of Europe can become our thousand-year empire! "
