British Civil Servant

Chapter 98: former prime minister churchill

If nothing else, the Labour Party will surprise Churchill, who was guiding the country at the Potsdam Conference. Alan Wilson has no doubts about this, and this does not mean that the Labour Party will come to power and the British Empire will be sold without underwear.

The relationship between the Labor Party and the Conservative Party is very similar to the relationship between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party in the United States. One is implicit and the other is direct, and they all do the same thing. Especially on the colonial issue, Attlee and Churchill differed only in the details.

In fact, the attitudes of the two parties towards the extensive colonies of the British Empire have changed in the same way, which is a line of resolute maintenance, key support, limited adherence, partial abandonment, and total retreat.

In fact, with the exception of British India, Attlee did not give up any of the colonies when he was in power. In the case of British India, it is really necessary to give up the pressure that has exceeded the national strength of the United Kingdom.

Moreover, the great disarmament of Britain in the 1950s actually happened after the Conservative Party regained power.

On the streets of London, Labour supporters chanted Labour's support for Attlee, "a high and increasing standard of living, the lifting of all people out of poverty, and the establishment of an education system that makes it possible for every boy, girl and child to develop their talents. "

"Voting for Labour is the beginning of the fall of the British Empire. Only Churchill can make Britain great again."

If Alan Wilson heard about it in China, as a die-hard fan of the king, he would definitely hold an old fist at the other party and blatantly plagiarize. Where did the gentleman's face go?

It is a pity that he is not in the country, but accompanied Fortseva to count the fleet left by Germany in the major ports of Germany. Having adjusted his mentality, he did his best to complete his task.

"I thought you would be reluctant, after all, the German fleet is in the hands of the British." Fortseva was in a good mood, but the occasional cough was a little unpleasant.

"A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. A fleet of this size is not in the eyes of the British Empire." Alan Wilson slapped his face as a fat man and said stubbornly, "As a continental country, the Soviet Union still doesn't understand anything. It's called the Centennial Navy. The Soviet Union cannot compete with Britain at sea for twenty years."

"Well, I can't see it." Fultseva covered her mouth with a light smile and teased, "Then why do you listen to the Americans and give us the German fleet in your hands?"

The Americans will pay for this, Alan Wilson thought silently, looked deeply at Furtseva and walked away.

Although the Breston Woods system is a good help to stabilize hegemony, it also has certain limitations. Under this system, although the United States is the ally of the capitalist countries, Britain and France also have the ability to make the United States not go too far. He remembered that in the ten years from the 1960s to the 1970s, Britain, France and Germany took advantage of the fact that the United States was in the quagmire of the Vietnam War, and successively launched financial attacks on the United States.

The United States really kidnapped the whole of Europe at the same time after the West said that it was still tied to the US dollar and oil.

"This is the British-occupied area!" Alan Wilson, who had taken two steps, suddenly turned his head and muttered, "What are you Soviet people so proud of?"

Although Germany's commercial fleet has grown from 5 million before the war to 800,000 tons today, it is still a huge gain for a purely continental country, the Soviet Union. Who made the Soviet Union's shipping really stretched? Woolen cloth.

It was only slightly stronger than the three defeats of Germany, Italy and Japan, less than a fraction of that of Britain and the United States, and even worse than France, which threw a rifle.

From Furtseva's careful actions, Alan Wilson can also judge that the Soviet Union should attach great importance to this batch of German fleets to be handed over.

While the handover is taking place here, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union are still engaged in a series of confrontations at the Potsdam Conference. Questions concerning the borders of Germany and Poland, as well as the part of East Prussia and the former Danzig Free Zone not under the jurisdiction of the Soviet Union, were under the jurisdiction of the Polish government. Britain and the United States agreed to establish diplomatic relations with the Provisional Government of National Unity in Poland.

Britain and the United States also agreed to cede Königsberg and the surrounding area to the Soviet Union as punishment for Germany's war. Thus, through the Potsdam Conference, Germany's borders were officially changed to what later generations would be familiar with.

Poland lost its former West Belarus and West Ukraine, which were incorporated into Soviet territory.

Regarding the issue of German compensation, it was determined that "the compensation claims made by the Soviet Union will be satisfied by the confiscation of the assets of the Soviet-occupied areas in Germany and the corresponding German foreign investment". In addition, the Soviet Union could also receive 10 percent free of charge and 15 percent paid for goods from the industrial facilities demolished in the Western occupation zones.

In other words, the British-occupied areas could not escape the treatment of being drawn blood by the Soviet Union. The British delegation stated that although it agreed to the Soviet Union's proposal to Poland, the Polish government-in-exile must return to Poland and participate fairly in the post-war reconstruction of Poland on the basis of democracy.

This is a black box operation. Alan Wilson and Fortseva have already made a proposition. The United Kingdom used a reasonable and legitimate excuse to let the Polish government in exile and its supporters return to Poland. As for what the Soviet Union is willing to do at that time, UU read www. How to deal with uukanshu.com, that is the matter of the Soviets themselves.

Stalin had even thought of a solution, and was going to send Marshal Rokossovsky to wait in Poland for the return of the Polish government-in-exile. Marshal Rokossovsky was a Polish.

In the process of handing over the fleet, Alan Wilson suddenly said, "In fact, the Soviet Union can use the Yugoslav problem to put pressure on the Americans to see if they can exchange the four-nation occupation of Berlin."

After the refugee incident in Yugoslavia, in order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, the Soviet Red Army had sealed off the Austrian border and spoke for Yugoslavia at the Potsdam Conference, which made Truman very embarrassed.

This kind of move is very reasonable. More than 200,000 people in Yugoslavia have indeed gone to the US-occupied area. The Soviet Union has occupied the reason, and the original occupation of the four countries in name has turned into the occupation of Austria by the Soviet Union.

The Potsdam Conference reached a deadlock again on the Austrian issue. Stalin said that the current status quo in Austria should not be changed for the time being, which made Prime Minister Churchill very dissatisfied. What made Churchill even more uncomfortable was that he seemed to be becoming a former prime minister.

With the victory over Germany, Churchill, who was at the Potsdam Conference, fell behind the Labour Party in the election that has now been voted. If this trend continues, the Conservative Party will lose the general election, and the regional form of some delayed voting is not optimistic.

Two days later, the results of the general election came out, and Churchill became the former Prime Minister of the British Empire.

"Which side do you civil servants stand on?" Furtseva asked in a provocative tone after seeing Alan Wilson after hearing the results of the general election being discussed by the British.

"The winning side." Alan Wilson straightened his back and replied with Stalin's words, "The winner is not blamed."
