British civil servant

This is no wonder others, who made the Americans suffer from persecution paranoia, thinking that the failure to find it was because the Soviets found it first, which led to the Soviet Union revealing the matter.This has absolutely nothing to do with Alan Wilson correcting the Soviet Union's guess, whether it was a nuclear leak or the hydrogen bomb did not explode.

The secretary-general of the cabinet does not need the thanks of the Americans. His level of dispelling the rumors this time is about the same as that of Shanghai, and it should be done for the special relationship between Britain and the United States.

"Uh, the country must be communicating with Madrid." When it came to the almost nuclear bombing of Spain, Donald's expression froze. In many cases, they sincerely maintain the special relationship between Britain and the United States, but they just can't be thanked, and their words are too unpleasant.

Just like now, the United Kingdom is holding this financial summit with Germany to counter France's attack on the dollar. The United States should thank the United Kingdom, but it has to mention the fact that the United States dropped the hydrogen bomb at this time.

"Communication is good, but the villagers in a small town are frightened, and I believe it won't take much money to settle it." Alan Wilson said with a high profile, "I don't believe that Franco dares to do anything to the U.S. military, The Nuremberg trials missed him, didn't they?"

After practicing the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States, Alan Wilson ended his work today and went home to show his flexible moral bottom line in front of Pamela Mountbatten. It is time to attack the dollar or to attack it.

"I thought Whitehall created the summit to really protect the dollar." Pamela Mountbatten lamented her husband's acting skills and almost deceived herself.

"The U.S. dollar needs to be maintained, but you have to maintain gold." Alan Wilson grabbed his wife's little hand and said like a dog licking, "We have always followed the principle of safeguarding national interests, but we must make money. We must not let the French People take all the benefits, right? We should also get some necessary, reasonable, and insignificant benefits to the US gold reserves, such as hundreds of tons of gold. Anyway, the French are at the front to attract hatred, why not do it?"

"Now that this summit is coming out, can France achieve its goal by itself? Will the French back down?" Pamela Mountbatten asked her husband if this would frighten the French and lead to This time the criticism is loud and rainy?

"No, don't underestimate the determination of the French. Especially President de Gaulle, we just have different positions. Excluding the factor of different countries, he is no worse than our prime minister, especially Churchill." Alan Wilson signaled his wife to relax, Bray There are structural contradictions in the Ton Woods system, and crises can be delayed but not resolved.

Even in the 21st century, France is also a top-ranking gold reserve country. The European gold reserve countries are Germany, France and Italy. These countries do not believe in credit currencies. Gold is more valuable than printed paper. Three The combined gold reserves of the two countries are not smaller than the gold reserves of the United States.

This time, the Anglo-German financial summit included all the five largest banks in the UK, as well as representatives from German banks including Deutsche Bank.The main discussion is, as mentioned before, maintaining the stability of the Bretton Woods system and resolutely curbing the French attempt to disrupt the international financial market.

In fact, Alan Wilson didn't expect to talk about anything. It was mainly for Americans to see. At critical times, blood is thicker than water, which is more effective, so that Americans can feel at ease in fighting in Southeast Asia.

On both sides of the financial summit, there are people who can give him the latest progress. On the British side, there is Pamela Mountbatten representing the Sarawak Development Bank, and on the German side, there is Pokina from the Deutsche Regional Bank. This can let Whitehall know The latest progress of this Anglo-German summit.

Alan Wilson told Washington that it is good to leave this matter to the United Kingdom, and the good days of the United States are yet to come.

The basic condition for Britain to win over Germany is that the Deutsche Bundesbank holds a large amount of U.S. dollar reserves. Since the 50s, it has been one of the world's most important holders of gold reserves, second only to the United Kingdom and the United States.

The Cold War alliance with the United States was the most important international relationship of the Federal Republic of Germany.The Federal Republic of Germany pays billions of marks every year to maintain American garrisons and military installations.Core national interests determine that it is impossible to take any action to endanger the US dominance of the global monetary system.

This is different from France. The Federal Republic of Germany is on the front line of confrontation. Once the United States itself encounters a major problem, it will directly affect the national security of the Federal Republic of Germany.

Of course, these reasons are actually not important. Once the Germans find the benefits of attacking the US dollar, they will naturally attack.The key is not to be the first bird.

Alan Wilson actually feels that France's ally in attacking the US dollar should actually be the Soviet Union, not any of Britain and Germany.It is obviously not a good way to be the leader of this French-American gold dispute.This Anglo-German financial summit lasted for three days, and finally the German banking industry agreed, and what the British said made sense.

The first thousand 320 chapters and seven unfortunate news

,!

Of course it makes sense, the Germans are not stupid. A simple comparison between the United States and France in this round of confrontation is that the national power of the United States far exceeds that of France. If the United States can be brought down by a run on gold, then the world hegemony of the United States is too fragile up.

The Bretton Woods system does have weaknesses, but it is not a broken house. The French will collapse with a kick, and end the Bretton Woods system. Britain, France and Germany all have a share, but when to make a move is particular, Eurodollar The sharp increase in offshore dollar funding in the market has added to the growing turmoil in the U.S. dollar.

The rapid expansion of the number of Eurodollars has greatly expanded the financial instruments for currency transactions of multinational companies and investment companies.Such offshore currency transactions are unregulated, which further exacerbates the financial vulnerability of the United States and makes the United States more vulnerable to international financial shocks.

I understand the truth, but things cannot be judged so simply. France's economic aggregate is only 17.00% of that of the United States. Who would believe that France can win?The size of the British economy is 20.00% of that of the United States. Six, isn't the UK now honestly consolidating its imperial preferential system?The size of the UK economy is almost equal to the population ratio of the UK and the US.

Over the past 20 years, Alan Wilson has made a small contribution to the country. I dare not say how much credit I have. Anyway, it is better than Churchill, the late former Prime Minister of the British Empire last year.

Holding the newspaper that Churchill's son, Conservative MP Randolph Churchill, had an unfortunate traffic accident, Alan Wilson walked to the window and looked at the busy traffic outside, "Regarding the unfortunate death of MP Churchill, all colleagues in the cabinet and Whitehall All very sad."

"Yeah, it's unfortunate news." Grace took a sip of his cigar and said with a relaxed face, "We all understand that it's a blessing among misfortunes. Drunken driving is not a good idea."

"That's right, so citizens still need to take warning. The definition of drunk driving should be a serious issue." Alan Wilson nodded with a smile, "In this way, Councilor Churchill won't die in vain, he Dead is very valuable."

"But having said that, what is the punishment standard for drunk driving here in the UK? Don't make my people feel too uncomfortable." Grace still has to protect his subordinates.

You can rest assured on this point, Alan Wilson promises that he will not turn his back on his long-term partner, "The driver's license will be revoked for one year. After all, no one wants such an unfortunate incident. By the way, how is Rhodesia recently?"

"It's not very good. The south is very chaotic now. The railway line we used to transport copper mines is always affected. Now it is borrowed from Mozambique. We also want to build a terminal on the Zambezi River bordering Mozambique to go to sea." Gray. Si said with a serious face, "As I said at the time, sooner or later black people will make trouble. Isn't that the case in Southern Rhodesia now? South Africa is also sooner or later. Don't think that there are more white people in South Africa. There are more black people there. many."

"Well, you people from the Balkans still understand." Alan Wilson admired the other party's foresight, and then said, "Maybe in a few years, there will be a railway between you and Nyerere."

"Is there such a plan in China?" Grace said in surprise, "I know that Nyerere has this idea, and he has asked many countries for help, but it seems that they have all been rejected.",

"Someone will always make a move, but in this case, it is inevitable that you will establish certain economic ties with the newly independent black country. I thought you would object." Alan Wilson chuckled, what Grace said just now, South Rhodesia and South Africa are doomed sooner or later.

"There are no black people in our royal territory. As long as they don't come over, it's not impossible to contact them. I remember your saying that distance creates beauty." Grace said nonchalantly, "It's okay to stay in your own country after independence. We can't live in peace. We don't want to kill all the black people in Africa. There is enough land for us to live on now."

Alan Wilson still inevitably reminded that it is not your land, but the territory of the British royal family. It is best not to create illusions about such things.

In the end, Southern Rhodesia inevitably went to the old road in history, and began to compete for the dominance of Rhodesia between whites and blacks. However, for now, whites still have the upper hand. Like Yin Smith, he served in the British Army and participated in the Second World War, the most famous of which was the Rhodesian Special Air Service Squadron and the Selousian Reconnaissance Unit.

Not only did most of the members of these troops have participated in many combat operations in World War II and after the war, they have extremely rich experience in special operations, but also mastered complete military training methods, which can provide training for other troops without military experience, and their combat effectiveness far exceeds that of the blacks who resisted. armed.

Moreover, Southern Rhodesia is bordered by South Africa in the south, Mozambique controlled by Portugal in the east, and the Rhodesian royal territory where Grace is located in the north. The black armed forces in Southern Rhodesia are isolated from all sides. What about white people in West Asia.

However, the sporadic armed conflicts inevitably affected Grace and the others, because the minerals exported from Northern Rhodesia were exported through South Africa and had to pass through Southern Rhodesia.Now that Southern Rhodesia is unstable, it will definitely affect the interests of these Balkan remnants.

"By the way, I haven't seen my wife this time, so I haven't come back from Perth." Grace asked, shouldn't Pamela Mountbatten be staying in London at this time of year?Why didn't he see it?It was too much, and he helped kill Churchill's son.

"She has something to do recently. She's not in London." Alan Wilson hurriedly spoke to appease, "I went on a research trip to the European continent, and I won't be back in a few days."

In response to the Anglo-German financial summit a week ago, the French had already given the Banque de France's announcement that it intends to convert all new inflows of dollar reserves, as well as part of existing dollar reserves, into gold.

To reinforce his harsh criticism of US fiscal policy laissez-faire, President de Gaulle proposed two global monetary reform proposals, with the ambitious goal of strengthening the role of gold in the global monetary system.Removal of the US dollar and British pound as international reserve currencies - "gold has no nationality, is eternally and universally accepted."

Finance Minister Giscard d'Estaing reiterated France's claim.Durstein condemned the United States for enjoying the super hegemony of the dollar: the United States issued unlimited depreciating dollar bills, and made large-scale investments overseas this time, reaping huge benefits from it.

So far, the so-called Anglo-German financial summit has not frightened the French at all. The French still believe that France will never lose in the choice between the US dollar and gold.

The financial center of continental Europe is in Switzerland. Pamela Mountbatten has gone to Zurich. She is going to get what she deserves under the cover of the French. As for the main source of funds, it is through HSBC in Xiangjiang and Sarawak in Malaya. Laoyue Development Bank to operate.

It’s better for Grace not to know about this matter. Alan Wilson is also doing his best for Rhodesia. Of course, this time Grace is not in vain. He and three people representing different forces are here to accept the award. , for outstanding service to the Crown of Rhodesia.

The standard of the award is quite high. It was held at Buckingham Palace. Alan Wilson went over to catch the heat, and his sister-in-law also came here specially to add color to the award this time.

Everything seems to be happy and harmonious, except for the unfortunate death of Congressman Churchill because of drunk driving. Of course, the perpetrator who was frightened can't leave right now, and he has to wait until the limelight passes.

"What has Mr. Turing been up to lately?" Alan Wilson asked Her Royal Highness, the greatest modern British scientist, about his recent schedule in a businesslike and flat tone.

"Aren't you trapped by the work you arranged, what is the Royal Semiconductor Research Institute." Princess Margaret cast a blank glance at the supreme authority. In the eyes of others, this may be to protect her husband.

But both parties understand that the princess is secretly poking at the connotation of supreme authority and has greatly damaged her conscience. She arranged so many jobs for the princess's husband, and she replaced the most important jobs of others.

"The semiconductor industry is extremely important to the UK, and it involves economic development." Allen Wilson said that he is all for the future of the UK.

Europe has largely revolved around a war of words between the UK and France recently, with the UK slamming France for undermining the financial order of the free world and saying it would not stand idly by.

France accuses Britain of being a Trojan horse in Europe. France wins over Belgium, Italy, and Britain wins over Germany and Sweden, spouting spittle in Europe.

The United Kingdom patted its chest and assured the United States that it would never let the French jump too high when the United States was busy with the war. This made the United States a little relieved and began to concentrate on dealing with the Vietnam issue.

At the same time, new changes have also appeared on the Vietnam battlefield. The United States has reorganized the South Vietnamese army and the Korean army, and started a sweeping mode in areas close to North Vietnam.Trying to wipe out the troops infiltrated by North Vietnam. Although Britain did not participate in the war, it secretly sent military advisers to observe and accumulate combat experience to see if it could be used on Indonesia one day.

In addition to the military advisers in name, there are also British intelligence agencies stationed in South Vietnam. In addition to highlighting the special relationship between Britain and the United States, there are also individuals secretly investigating war crimes.The relationship between Britain and the United States is so good. Of course, it is not possible to investigate the atrocities of the US military, but to see if the second Korean devils are letting themselves go.

"Information about Kosygin's reform in Moscow." Richard White, the head of MI[-], arrived at the Cabinet Office and took out the information Alan Wilson needed.

"Oh, thank you, let's see what good things our enemy has come up with, maybe we can learn from it." Alan Wilson smiled and expressed his thanks, then looked very interested, pointing to the corner and said , "There's coffee over there, Richard, just do it yourself."

"Thank you!" Richard White is no stranger to the water dispenser in the supreme authority's office. It also has a heating function, and the design is still very novel.

Of course, this water dispenser was designed by himself, and it was often used in school in his previous life. He has applied for a patent in the UK, and now it has become a popular product in the world.If the hair loss rate in the UK has dropped, it should really be thanks to his supreme authority.

"Secretary-General, you have always been very concerned about the developments in the Soviet Union." Richard White took the coffee to make a living by himself, and did not forget to talk to his immediate boss.

"For such a powerful country, if we don't care about it, it is a dereliction of duty to the country." Alan Wilson flipped through the documents. In fact, the reputation of the Soviet Union in this era is still good.

Of course black spots also exist, and they have been talked about over and over again, but they are all harmless. The most basic reason is that the Soviet Union is still alive.

If the Soviet Union were to perish tomorrow in a single click, then we in the free world would be impolite, and an innocuous black spot would surely become an irreversible black spot.Isn’t there a TV series that said, “Why don’t we support Afghanistan, because the Soviet Union is too strong.”

The difference in national strength resulted in treatment. Britain and the United States hated the Soviet Union very much, but as long as the Soviet Union said that it wanted to ease, then Britain and the United States would definitely say that the relaxation was correct and avoid direct confrontation with the Soviet Union.

Of course, the Soviet Union can't just relax. At least it is impossible for the Soviet Union to stop problematic countries in the same camp, such as a certain big country that has not listened to orders.

At present, the relationship between a certain big country and France, a problematic country in the free world camp, is advancing by leaps and bounds, and there seems to be a tendency to converge.Especially recently.

Take the Vietnam War as an example. Although the United Kingdom did not send troops, it still supported the United States at the diplomatic level. Are you looking at French President Charles de Gaulle's attitude towards Vietnam?De Gaulle delivered a speech strongly condemning the US invasion of Vietnam, and then urgently summoned former French Prime Minister Edgar Faure to visit various countries to explain France's position.

France's blatant opposition to America's Vietnam policy has been summed up in Washington's eyes. France is opposing the United States in every field and at every level.

The Soviet Union is undergoing reforms. This is a fact that is clear from public channels. The UK is also very concerned about this matter, learning from each other's strengths to make up for its weaknesses. What's more, it is now a Labor Party government and is still carrying out some nationalization measures, such as the water supply that is now steadily advancing. Nationalize the system.

After Brezhnev came to power, he made a clear request to the Soviet economic circles, hoping that they would start discussions on how to revive the Soviet economy.With the support of Brezhnev, the Soviet economic circles responded enthusiastically, the most prominent of which was Lisichkin's article "Life Proposes Amendments".The article believes that it is extremely unreasonable to regard the planned economy as the only means of national economic development, and only by combining planning with the market can sustainable economic development be achieved.

Just combine planning with the market?You see, isn't this similar to Attlee's time when we combined the advantages of the two systems?

With the support of Brezhnev, Kosygin, chairman of the Soviet Council of Ministers, started the economic reform of the Soviet Union. The economic reform of the Soviet Union presided over by Kosygin has been carried out in full swing in the Soviet Union.It is reported that at that time, a total of 90.00 enterprises across the country adopted the New Economic Policy, accounting for [-]% of the total industrial output value of the entire Soviet Union.

Enterprises have the autonomy to use funds for large-scale production, and at the same time, they have established enterprise funds for their own disposal. On the other hand, the economic reform presided over by Kosygin allowed enterprise members to obtain material satisfaction through the reform of the salary system of enterprise members.And completely close to the full accounting policy of the market.

Of course, what the Soviet Union did was called Soviet revisionism, but it would be different if it was done in another country. It could be called reform and opening up, and the so-called double standards are everywhere.

"Can we think of a new economic growth point in Eastern Europe?" Alan Wilson had to frown. The British economy has reached a bottleneck again.The worthwhile development of the colony in hand has already been developed, and the thankless future will not change.

Once the economic growth is insufficient, if you look at the former Prime Minister Eden's hard work in diplomacy, voters will know that the economic problem is the root cause.When Harold Wilson came to power, he must focus on the economic card. After all, the status of a world power cannot be taken for granted.

This Kosygin reform is obviously an opportunity. Allen Wilson told Richard White, "There is still a lack of intelligence on the economic exchanges between Italy and the Soviet Union in recent years."

"I'll have someone send it over right away." Richard White nodded. The economic exchanges between Italy and the Soviet Union are an open fact, but what does the supreme authority want this for?

Naturally, it emphasized the role of expanding economic ties with the Soviet Union. If the UK wants to go further, it must try to return to traditional sources of raw materials, such as Eastern Europe.

The current situation is very simple. France and the Soviet bloc are not clear about it. Italy and the Soviet bloc are secretly communicating with each other. The Germans are silent, but Alan Wilson knows that the Germans will soon promote the Eastern policy, because Western Europe has begun to rely on its own development. peaked.

The per capita incomes of European countries and the UK are getting closer and closer, and the UK cannot sit back and watch indifferently.

This can't be solved by nationalization alone. Besides, since the Soviet Union has started to reform, can't Britain use the Soviet Union's reform to achieve a win-win situation?

Italy did not dare to provide technical equipment to the Soviet Union with great fanfare. They controlled the cooperation between the two sides within a controllable range, and the cooperation between the two sides was mainly concentrated in the field of civilian industry.Italy exported refrigerators, automobiles, steel pipes and other products to the Soviet Union, and transferred part of its production technology to the Soviet Union, in exchange for huge amounts of foreign exchange and abundant resources from the Soviet Union.

The most typical example is the Soviet Union's automobile industry. It can be said that most of the Soviet Union's automobile industry is the credit of Italy. The most famous prototype of the Soviet Union's Lada car is the Italian Fiat car.In return, the Soviet Union not only paid a large amount of real money to Italy, purchased a large number of commodities and technologies from Italy, but also exported oil, natural gas and other resources to Italy at preferential prices.

France is not far behind in this regard. Many technical standards in the Soviet Union are French. If these two countries are vying to sell the free world, why should the UK just watch?

"Of course we want to rebuild economic and trade relations." Harold Wilson pondered for a while and said, "Does Kosygin's reform mean that the Soviet Union has begun to turn around to some extent?"

"This cannot be judged right away, but France and Italy have continued to export technology to the Soviet Union. In recent years, the speed of national development has been approaching that of the United Kingdom. We would be too stupid if we didn't make any moves." Facing the Prime Minister's question, Alan Wilson replied "It's a pity that we don't have a Xiangjiang River in the Soviet Union, but there are not no detours. For example, through Finland, the Prime Minister also knows that Finland is very close to Leningrad, the economic center of the Soviet Union. Through cooperation with Finland, we can Establish economic and trade relations in the economic center of the Soviet Union."

"The problem now is the United States. In fact, we all know that the United States also contained the United Kingdom after the war. For a while, we can be said to have worked very hard, but after the Cuban missile crisis, the degree of containment seems to be smaller. And since Charles de Gaulle After coming to power, the target of the United States' containment in the free world has obviously turned to France. At present, France and the United States are arguing over the dollar issue, so there may be a way.",

What method, Harold Wilson is very interested, of course, he is not too obvious, this is after all an internal struggle in the free world. .

"It is a fact that France and Italy have developed economic and trade relations with the Soviet Union. We use this to blame the two countries and see the reaction of the Americans. If the United States adopts an acquiescing attitude, there is no reason for the United States to ignore France and Italy and go on endlessly with the United Kingdom alone. up."

Taking advantage of the current disharmony between France and the United States, and adding a fire, if the United States appeases at this time, then the United Kingdom will not be polite, and the Eastern European market is also wanted by the United Kingdom.The United Kingdom is not too much. France and Italy can provide civil technology, and it is not impossible for the United Kingdom to provide it.

Harold Wilson was moved. The Conservative Party resigned because of poor economic development. Aiden worked hard for a long time to mediate the India-Pakistan war and to contain Indonesia, but it didn't work.Didn't they lose nearly a hundred seats in this general election?

"We really can't act rashly!" Harold Wilson agreed with the Secretary-General of the Cabinet. "Let Washington give an explanation for France and Italy's betrayal of the free world."

If there is nothing to say about this statement, then the two can do it, so why can’t the UK do it? Just now, the UK is still fighting with France because of the currency remarks of France. It is not impossible to continue to expand the war of words.

France says Britain is America's Trojan horse in Europe, and Britain says France undermines the unity of the free world.

Now is the time to escalate this war of words. While the big brother of the free world is busy with the war, Britain’s criticism of France has suddenly reached a new level. The British newspapers have implied that France is an invisible ally of the Soviet Union, and has given countless technologies to freedom. Enemy of the world.

The first thousand and 320 chapters and nine Soviet commodity exhibitions

,!

The war of words between the UK and France is especially noticeable in Europe at this time because of the recent attacks on the dollar by France.

Washington has also noticed the recent war of words. While thanking Britain for its help, it also expressed that the free world cannot give up on France until the last moment.

Regarding the French de Gaulle government's plan to drive out NATO, the United States has prepared to form a negotiating team to have a good talk with the de Gaulle government on this matter.Didn't de Gaulle give a deadline before the end of the year, and the United States will come here to fight for France by the end of the year.

"It's nothing more than procrastination." After listening to MI[-]'s report, Alan Wilson said bluntly, "Maybe the Americans think that they must have more face than the British. Our persuasion failed, but it doesn't mean that the United States will Failure, I really don’t know where the confidence comes from.”

Richard White didn't make a sound. Although he is the head of MI[-], it is better not to make subjective judgments under such circumstances.

"The palliative strategy is that when the United States is currently held back by Southeast Asia, the government should extend an olive branch to the Soviet Union for the stable development of the European situation. The work of MI[-] may be very busy recently. The opening of the Soviet product exhibition does not mean that we will Put the KGB in, Philby, and that's up to you."

Allen Wilson told the head of MI[-] that the response to the mitigation strategy is a prerequisite for this Soviet product exhibition.One of the Cambridge Five just needs to know about it.

The deeper purpose is to use this exhibition to judge the technical level of Soviet industrial products, so as to judge the level of Soviet industry. If the result is optimistic, Britain will export some civilian technology. Also more sure.

Of course, there is no need for Philby to know this kind of deep purpose. The United Kingdom has to take into account the thoughts of the United States. Otherwise, why has it been scolding France and Italy recently?With the tone of the United States' spokesperson in Europe, pointing out the country to these loyal and not absolute allies?

As for the holding of the Soviet commodity exhibition, it is not surprising at all. It is a routine operation.After instructing the two intelligence chiefs, Alan Wilson raised his wrist to check the time, "It's 05:30, get off work, another fulfilling day."

After work, Radwig sent Alan Wilson to the Windsor Castle Hotel, where he was going to take a rest. In the presidential suite on the top floor, the supreme authority stood motionless by the window overlooking the magnificent mountains and rivers below. He was full of pride , Ms. Ingrid Bergman, the female president who came to the UK for shopping activities, turned around and gave a sweet kiss to the man behind her.
