Chapter 1569: Downplaying

After receiving instructions from London, the Chief Executive of the Falkland Islands, Rex Hunt, immediately released the Argentinians who broke into the islands and allowed them to return to Argentina.

At the same time, Foreign Secretary Carrington got in touch with US Secretary of State Haig and conveyed to the Galtieri military government that Britain hoped to downplay the attitude of dealing with this matter. "Territorial disputes can be discussed. There is nothing that cannot be discussed. The two countries should be peaceful." To resolve territorial disputes, the UK has always supported the Argentinian military government’s position in defending the free world.”

General Galtieri, who regarded the landing on the Falkland Islands as a trouble, breathed a sigh of relief when he met the US ambassador and said gratefully, "Argentina is very grateful to the United States for its role in defending the rights and interests of the Americas."

"Of course!" The U.S. ambassador to Argentina was a little surprised, but he was full of gratitude, so he replied cheerfully, "This is what the United States has been doing."

Before Galtieri visited the United States, U.S. President Ronald Reagan had a good impression of him and praised the Argentine military government for doing a good job in anti-Soviet. Reagan's national security adviser Richard also believed that Galtieri was an "outstanding general." , which greatly increased Galtieri's domestic prestige in Argentina.

At this time, a dialogue between Reagan and Reagan was taking place in Washington. The two people in the dialogue were the Treasury Secretary and the President of the United States of America. Reagan's operations after taking office were clear, and the problems were the same as those faced by Mrs. Thatcher. Currently The situation is not very good. The only good news may be that Iran has officially released the hostages it held.

President Reagan is preparing to go to the Federal Republic of Germany and join the appointed special envoy former President Carter to bring back the detained Americans.

"The interest rate increase must be carried out. This time we will go to Europe and discuss with the British side to come up with a result." The Finance Minister said, "As for the Argentine issue, we also have to see what the British think."

President Reagan agreed, "If we raise interest rates, it will inevitably drain the liquidity of the US dollar, and we need someone to take over. The UK has been maintaining resistance in the pound area, which is very uncomfortable."

Many problems were not considered problems when Reagan was governor, but became problems when he became president. The currency separation system composed of the three countries of old Europe, Britain, France and Germany, is still very powerful.

But now that the Soviet Union is throwing out the West on August 1, Reagan feels that it is better to treat its European allies well.

"Now we should first appease Argentina. The Secretary of State should express understanding of Argentina's behavior and observe the British reaction."

In Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, hundreds of thousands of patriots took to the streets to support their heroes and bravely stepped onto the Falklands to raise the Argentinian organization to protect the Falklands.

The hero in the middle of the float was filled with flowers and applause everywhere he passed. Today, all Argentinians can talk and be patriotic. Through this move, they pay tribute to the national hero they call the national hero. The Argentine media is also full of blind optimism. , newspapers and magazines in Buenos Aires lavishly reported on the "heroic act of the Argentine hero."

The British Foreign Office downplayed the matter, a move by a civil society organization to attract attention. At the same time, the British ambassador to Argentina reiterated that both the United Kingdom and Argentina are allies of the United States, and such an island is insignificant to both countries. The UK has said that we can discuss all the issues.

Argentina and the United States are currently in the honeymoon period. Argentina is an important supporter of the United States in Latin America. Argentina also provides military advisors and camps, and supports the anti-Soviet forces in Nicaragua with the CIA to ensure that Nicaragua's pro-Soviet government cannot stand firm.

heel.

Nothing happened in the next few days, as if the landing on the island had never happened. For other countries, it was impossible for Argentina to pretend that it had never happened. On the contrary, the Argentine patriots tested the British bottom line.

, this public pressure that Britain will not respond to will be put on Galtieri.

The only thing that happened in the UK was that Alan Wilson went to participate in Albert's promotion. Although it was a normal promotion in compliance with regulations, Alan Wilson seriously asked the Deputy Secretary of Defense Marks, "You are not because of

I am the Secretary-General of the Cabinet, so I did it. You must know that the military is a collective that is different from other departments, and we cannot engage in these nepotistic relationships."

"There is absolutely no such thing. Colonel Albert's promotion is completely in compliance with the regulations and has nothing to do with the Cabinet Secretary-General." Makins sternly assured that the army is a fair place, how could it be treated by the Cabinet Secretary-General?

Impact? Civil servants and the military are two systems.

However, it is not impossible to say that it was affected by a retired marshal and important member of the royal family who is still alive, but it definitely has nothing to do with Whitehall.

"Oh, that's good." Alan Wilson's business-like face finally showed a smile, "Since it is Albert's own ability, he cannot deliberately suppress it just because I am the Cabinet Secretary-General. In fact, I am very

I object to some parents sacrificing their children just to gain fame for themselves. This is also unfair to the children."

Makins was in awe. He absolutely believed that the supreme authority spoke from the bottom of his heart when he said this. This unhealthy trend of seeking fame and reputation through sacrifice and suppression must be absolutely prohibited.

The current and former presidents of the United States will personally appear in Frankfurt, Germany, to pick up the released American hostages. At the same time, they hope that Mrs. Thatcher will also come to witness this moment.

Alan Wilson knew that there must be other things, maybe there was content about the Falkland Islands, but he still suggested that Mrs. Thatcher go there. This kind of superficial work should never be stingy.

Alan Wilson also took out an American best-selling book, "Japan's Number One: Inspiration to the United States" as part of professional image management to make the United States look at him in a new light.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Alan Wilson, who has been promoted, went home with the good boy who was only one step away from the general. It can be seen that Albert is still very happy. This time, in addition to his promotion, he came back

This matter, as well as the matter of sending his wife Sophia back to live in Hoxon Manor.

"Time is really a silent thing." Alan Wilson was very sentimental. "I didn't expect that I would be a grandfather. I was not mentally prepared for it at the moment."

In fact, the supreme authority would like to say that based on his age, it is not Albert's turn, but he does not understand the situation behind the Iron Curtain and does not know Alexeyev's current situation.

"Be prepared, don't think that the world will be calm." Alan Wilson told the elders. It should be based on the British military strength, which is probably seven heavy aircraft carrier battle groups, twenty-eight nuclear submarines, and one hundred strategic bombers.

With more than 200 strategic transport aircraft, 500 Typhoon fighter jets, 800 Tiger helicopter gunships, and the basis of Galileo navigation shared with France, think about how to fight a war.

"With whom? Father, didn't you say that we can't defeat the Soviet Union?" Colonel Albert paused at this point, "Don't tell me that we are going to fight Argentina?"

"With the Soviet Union, I would just say 1,200 nuclear bombs." Alan Wilson muttered, "So it is definitely not with the Soviet Union. Our relationship with the Soviet Union is actually quite good."

Alan Wilson was determined to go to Frankfurt with Mrs. Thatcher. The reason was that he was really afraid that Mrs. Thatcher would show the special relationship between Britain and the United States and agree to demands that the United States should not agree to. She almost sold the Kingdom of Iraq last time.

So it was a little bit close, because the King of Iraq was also persuaded by the United States, so it was a little bit close.

At this point, the female prime minister is not worthy of belief. The British economy is currently stable. This stability means that the unemployment rate does not continue to rise. If it does not rise, it is good news.

In addition to Reagan and the Treasury Secretary of the same name who appeared at the Frankfurt US military base, there was also former President Carter, who came with Reagan as the special envoy this time. Carter was really just here to take the hostages back home, but everyone else had other ideas.

Purpose.

Treasury Secretary Donald Regan asked Alan Wilson "what the United Kingdom thinks about its territorial dispute with Argentina."

"We are keeping an open mind at the moment." Alan Wilson answered with a smile while holding the American best-selling book "Japan No. 1: Inspiration for the United States." "The problem is the economy. I believe the Secretary of the Treasury agrees with this. This is your decision."

It is a common problem faced by me, you and us, the United States and the United Kingdom. This problem always needs to be solved. The United Kingdom has some experience, such as raising interest rates, and the conditions in the United States are better than those in the United Kingdom. I believe that good results can be achieved."

"We have the same view on the issue of raising interest rates." Donald Reagan mused, staring at the best-selling book in his opponent's hand. "Simply raising interest rates may not be enough. Some cooperation will be more effective."

The two had a conversation like a charade, and finally Alan Wilson took the initiative and asked what the United States' attitude was regarding the dispute between Britain and Argentina.

Donald Reagan's answer was straightforward, blood is thicker than water, Britain and the United States have a special relationship, but they still hope to solve the problem peacefully.

"Actually, if the two countries fight, it will be beneficial to raise interest rates and recover dollars." Alan Wilson lowered his voice, "But what's the benefit to me? Can the United States help Britain solve its economic problems? Can it exempt car imports?

Share, you must know that war is very scary. Before fighting, I felt full of confidence, but this is no longer the case during the fight."

"Dear Sir, the United Kingdom and the United States are one, and the United States will also provide some conditions for victory." Donald Reagan sighed in his heart. Fortunately, there is still a spokesman for the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States in the United Kingdom for many years, who can provide cover for the United States to raise interest rates.

"The responsibility for launching the war will certainly not fall on Britain. As for other issues, the Mountbatten Group has always been a friend of Wall Street."
