Chapter 105 Betraying Nixon
For the sake of Britain, Alan Wilson was even willing to sell his soul. Maybe there will never be another patriot like him in Britain in the future. He was in the center of an enemy country and never forgot to seek benefit for the country. If there is a next time, he will not look back.
"Why don't you go to the motherland of the Chinese? There are mostly Chinese in Malaya, and there are also many in Indonesia. Isn't it easier to operate through the Chinese?" Fortseva wanted to take out her hand, but after testing it, she was still stopped by Ellen Wilson. Hold on tight and just let it happen.
"This is a very acute question. But I have nothing to hide. We feel that there is something wrong with the other party's mentality, and this time period is not suitable for contact." Alan Wilson said in his heart that he did not dare to get involved with a person with high revolutionary enthusiasm. Cooperation between countries is a very dangerous thing.
The Soviet Union is different. At least for now, the Soviet Union has passed the stage of vigorous enthusiasm just after its establishment and fomenting troubles and opposing imperialism everywhere. A certain big country is still at this stage.
At the critical moment, when people's revolutionary enthusiasm rises, they betray Alan Wilson, an imperialist, without hesitation at all, and may even comment with contempt on the dog-eat-dog struggle of imperialism, but the great... seizes the opportunity or something.
"Well, it's possible." Fortseva nodded thoughtfully, "I didn't expect that you British people understand better than we do, but you give us all your support, but you end up like this."
Fortseva immediately shut up, but how could Alan Wilson not know that cracks had appeared in the hostile camp? She smiled and said, "It is a stupid move to support the industrialization of other countries."
"Aren't you also supporting Malaya?" Fortseva tilted her head and asked, then smiled bitterly, "By the way, that is your colony. Of course you are not worried."
If I were you, I would cool down all arguments and block all information from the East.
It is a pity that Alan Wilson is a British man. He must not make suggestions for the Soviet Union. If the enemy becomes stronger, it will kill the free world. Even if Alan Wilson does not consider himself, he must also consider his wife, who is poor and worth more than 2 billion pounds. Miserable life.
"Only with the national strength of the Soviet Union can you support a country like Indonesia. Other countries in your camp cannot do this. If we cooperate with the motherland of the Chinese, we must also consider that the Chinese in Indonesia themselves are not trusted by the Indonesian military. The goal is huge. . This is not conducive to confidentiality, and your Soviet Union’s secret planning has made it much more concealed."
Alan Wilson is still making the final effort to persuade Fortseva, "Once successful, Indonesia will become a very good ally of the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union generally does not have allies in tropical countries, and some tropical specialties are lacking in the Soviet Union. The complementarity is still very high. Big. In fact, for many countries, as long as a reliable armed force of a thousand people can have the final say. And when it comes to taking action, we, the United Kingdom, will cooperate."
"Isn't your Soviet KGB powerful? Isn't it possible to infiltrate a small country quietly?"
Fortseva is a little tempted. Once successful, it will be of great benefit to the country, and the same will be true for herself.
Thinking of this, Fortseva's face softened slightly, "You have made a lot of money. If we don't take action, the British colonies will gradually be dismantled by the United States, just like the Iran crisis."
"Don't be too complacent. Iran also has the interests of the Soviet Union. If the United States drives us away, it will be your turn next. Moscow should consider Iran's affairs now."
Alan Wilson snorted and said in a sinister tone, "And on the Iranian issue, even if we fail to sanction Iran and the United States expels the Soviet influence, the United Kingdom will still stand on the side of the United States. If you don't believe me, you can watch it then. Look, if one had to choose between the Soviet Union and the United States, Britain would definitely choose the United States."
"What you want to say is that the Soviet Union should not target the United Kingdom." Fortseva's eyes flashed and she said firmly, "Once the United Kingdom loses the sphere of influence that supports the United Kingdom, it will appear again as a vassal of the United States.
You still do it for Britain. "
"But it is also good for the Soviet Union." Alan Wilson still did not deny that he was considering the stability of Britain's interests. He changed the topic, "As far as this night is concerned, the Soviet Union got more from Britain than how many spies were lurking in it. It works. I guess it’s not too much to ask for.”
Fortseva was startled, then her face turned red, and the cultural tsar who dominated the kitchen debate bowed down.
Huh... Alan Wilson raised his neck with a look on his face as if a man wanted to be beaten. The close cooperation between Britain and the Soviet Union was also possible on certain occasions. It was a win-win situation.
At two o'clock in the night, Fortseva, with a happy smile, left the Ukraine Hotel. The two hugged each other for a long time before parting. At this stage, they both knew that the other was an important passer-by in their lives.
"If you had my child, the whole world would be shocked if word spread." Alan Wilson teased the cultural czar without hiding his dark psychology.
Fortseva's face changed slightly but she immediately covered it up and responded condescendingly, "You are simply overthinking."
"It's such a pity." Alan Wilson, holding a swinging stick, watched Furtseva's figure disappear from the window and went to sleep. The loyal and diligent imperial civil servant must now consider returning home.
Thanks to the seamless transmission of electronic cameras, the entirety of the kitchen debate has been broadcast around the world. Regarding the winner of this debate, both the United States and the Soviet Union insisted that they were the victors.
"I firmly believe that peace and development are the mainstream." When Foreign Secretary Macmillan returned to London, in a radio interview, he emphasized that the situation was very tense at that time. He spent a lifetime of diplomatic experience to mediate and strive to make the situation smoother. It will prevent you from losing control and relieve tense emotions.
"The issue of free trade and the lifting of the embargo proposed by the Soviet Union is also of concern to many citizens at this time." The host nodded and then raised this question.
"This is a very acute question." Macmillan laughed, and then said, "Look, from the British perspective, of course we are happy to see world peace and emphasize the importance of development. But we also Understand that development in various parts of the world is uneven and cannot be generalized. Many experiences and lessons show that the aspirations are good, but various problems will always arise in the practice process, so this requires a stable response. Avoid the collateral damage of necessity.”
"As for the issue of macro structural adjustment, it is a broader area. But the dialogue started with a positive attitude. I believe that a constructive plan will be come up with in the future and it will be implemented by then."
"Mr. Editor-in-Chief, what are you looking at me for?" Alan Wilson turned around and saw that the editor-in-chief of the radio station was staring at him, smiling half-smiling as if he had discovered something.
"Nothing." The editor withdrew his gaze and asked casually, "Are you satisfied with the minister's performance?"
"Oh, a very pointed question. I am very willing to answer this question." Alan Wilson replied calmly. "As a civil servant and minister, I cannot evaluate whether the minister's opinions on some issues are reasonable. , this would violate the principle of neutrality of civil servants. It would cause damage to the professionalism of Whitehall, in a word..."
The interview in the studio continued, and the host asked the last question, "Regarding the debate on women's issues, the minister's words seem to have been misunderstood."
"I absolutely support the protection of women's rights." Macmillan's answer was resolute.
"But the minister seemed to express his approval of what Nixon said." The host continued to ask questions relentlessly.
"No, I don't agree." Macmillan shirks all his responsibilities, wondering if he has ever been to Sichuan to study Chinese quintessence. "On the contrary, I have some doubts about Mr. Nixon's words, and I do not fully agree with them. view."
On the big question of approval ratings, a politician can make no mistakes, and Alan Wilson was pleased with Macmillan's performance, despite betraying Nixon.
It seems that when he was preparing for the interview, he did not intercept this question, but it still had the desired effect.
In terms of the criticism he faced from female voters and the criticism that Nixon faced from women, the experienced foreign secretary was more inclined to the latter.
Moscow, at the meeting of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Soviet Union, when Khrushchev expressed his intention to visit the United States, Fortseva frowned slightly, but still swallowed the words. The man who had left Moscow reminded her that she had defended Khrushchev back then. Xiaofu's actions were just inconsistent with Soviet politics. Just look at Zhukov's fate.
But there was one person in the Soviet Union who had a very sophisticated political sense, and that was Brezhnev. Fortseva, who wanted to speak, saw that Brezhnev did not speak, so she did not speak either.
"We don't want to visit the United States, but some important countries." Khrushchev looked at Foreign Minister Gromyko, "Comrade Gromyko, work out a careful itinerary."
"Comrade Khrushchev, we will definitely get things done." Gromyko nodded and dealt with the look from the first secretary, "I believe it will shock the world by then."
Everyone is concerned about the fate of the world. For example, Alan Wilson also has his own job. With the care of Vivien Leigh and Audrey Hepburn, he still has to wipe the butt of Foreign Secretary Macmillan despite his busy schedule.
By clarifying the misunderstanding with Nixon through formal and private channels, Macmillan himself was done with it. The disrespect for women was now all blamed on Nixon, which may affect the special relationship between Britain and the United States.
The clarification through diplomatic channels was very formal, and the exclusive information McCarthy received in private was very explosive.
