Chapter 119 De Gaulle

10 month 5 day.

The "Washington Post" reported another shocking news that attracted the attention of the whole world!
- The Fifth French Republic is proclaimed.

Although France has always been the one that is humiliated every day among the five permanent members, and even netizens jokingly define its national flag as the purest flag, the five permanent members are still the five permanent members, and France is still an existence on the European continent that cannot be ignored.

Of course, the establishment of the Fifth Republic cannot do without a key figure-De Gaulle!

It was also because of Charles de Gaulle's appearance that the establishment of the Fifth Republic became a hot news in the Federation.

Otherwise, a France that failed to hold off Germany and was conquered and surrendered for two months.

Who is qualified to attract proud federal people?

De Gaulle has a great reputation in the Federation. After all, he is the last hero of France, and the Federation people often compare him with Napoleon.

……

The French Fourth Republic was established in 1946. In the following 12 years, the government was weak, the cabinet changed frequently, and it was involved in the Algerian War, gradually falling into crisis.

In May of this year, the leader of the French colonial army, Jacques Massu, and others took advantage of the people's dissatisfaction with the government to launch a rebellion in Algeria. At the same time, anti-government riots also broke out in southern France.

In the chaos, the people asked de Gaulle to come out and take power, and de Gaulle also issued a statement, declaring that he was ready to take over the power of the republic.

At the end of May, President Coty invited de Gaulle to form a cabinet.

Countless French people are looking forward to it, and the long-awaited will come out!
In this way, de Gaulle became the new prime minister on June 6. After taking office, he first revised the constitution and carried out the reform of the national system. He appointed a working committee headed by Debre to draft a new draft constitution.

In September, de Gaulle read the draft of the new constitution to the broad masses of the people in the Republic Square.

A few days later, a referendum was held, and 80% of the people agreed with the new constitution.

Just today, the Fifth French Republic was proclaimed.

Not surprisingly, at the end of the year, Charles de Gaulle will be elected as the first president of the Fifth Republic.

It has to be said that although de Gaulle has been out of the field for a long time, he has accumulated enough accumulation. It took less than half a year to seize power, and he became the absolute leader of France again, and the "father of Gaulle" in the French overseas colonial countries.

Charles de Gaulle's coming to power also marked the birth of the "French view of Europe".

That's right, it is the French view of Europe that "Europe is me".

De Gaulle has always emphasized that France should be the "center and leader" of Europe, that "Europe cannot be formed without France in a leading position", and that "the French nation has become accustomed to being the giant of Europe".

These remarks may be regarded as a joke by future generations!

But it has always existed, and it has always guided the French people to find their own position and defend the honor of France after the disastrous World War II.

As the macho of France, the savior of France, the sun god of the country, the president of Europe, the standard-bearer of freedom...

(Fancy, this guy has too many names, Baidu by himself.)
De Gaulle is definitely a commendable figure.

During World War II, Germany easily occupied Paris without firing a single bomb, and invaded other cities in France.

When the new French cabinet headed by the Pétain group signed the surrender document.

Charles de Gaulle, who was Brigadier General at the time, fled to England and asked Churchill to use the British radio station to issue a call for resistance to France.

"Your Excellency, do you think you alone can represent France?"

Churchill, as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, questioned half-jokingly.

Displeasure appeared on De Gaulle's face. After thinking for a long time, he said calmly: "Of course! No government has the right to legally sell out its country and people."

"Now, France is being invaded by Germany, and I am the only member of the government who is standing up for resistance. Once the current government announces its surrender, I will be in charge of the wartime regime on behalf of the French people."

De Gaulle's uncompromising attitude and independent attitude are strong. After the war, his "Free France" can be said to be the only fig leaf in France.

The cross of Lorraine is so dazzling in a field of white flags.

This distinctive attitude and momentum also made de Gaulle a hero in France and even in continental Europe.

Some people say that it was his existence that allowed France to retain the status of a victorious country.

This statement has a certain probability, and it can only be said to be a probability. In mathematics, yes or no, there is always 50%.

Of course, Peyton doesn't think so. After all, the defeated country is not so easy to enter. Doesn't it look like Italy is a victorious country?

Under normal circumstances, the Allied tanks marched into Paris, and the Vichy government would turn into a victorious country if they took advantage of the trend.

At the same time, France's status as a victorious country is only beneficial to the interests of the Federation and the United Kingdom. Otherwise, after Germany's whitewashing, wouldn't the Soviet Union dominate the European continent?
Of course, de Gaulle's Free France's overseas struggles, followed by the excellent performance of the French army in the attack on the Dragoons, the Normandy landings and the subsequent attack on the German mainland made everything smooth and should be.

Put on the clothes that France took off one by one.

It has to be said that the existence of this king preserved the last dignity of France.

What happened to being teased?
Do you really think Wuchang is fake?

Who doesn't have black history?

Besides, don't you still have underwear?
At the same time, its leading Gaullistism has become the main body that France has insisted on for decades.

Finding its international place for postwar France—

That is, apart from working hard to govern France itself, what is more important is to strive to play an important role on the international stage under the control of superpowers.

The grandeur of the policy lay in insisting that France's military and economic might be a great power on the world stage, and in building support for that claim.

The rationale is then: France should not depend on any foreign power for its survival (creation of the French nuclear deterrent), and France refuses to submit to any foreign power, be it the Federation or the USSR.

Simply put, Gaullistism is - France must be a great power!

And against hegemony, unless I am hegemony.

Europe needs a leader to lead everyone against hegemony, and I, de Gaulle, think that France is good enough to take on this great task.

This doctrine laid the foundation for France's status as the five permanent members of France.

In the 60s, Charles de Gaulle advocated the development of nuclear weapons in France, challenged the hegemony of the Federation, and voted against the entry of the United Kingdom into the European Union...

This series of measures has restored France to its status as a great power and defended France's honor in the world.

Worthy of the title of Heavenly Macho!

However, this piece of news did not attract the federal public for too long, and it only became a momentary hot spot.

After all, the colors belonging to the era have gradually disappeared, and even the original Big Three have come to an end.

And France is not Britain, and the federal people have no special feelings.

The current federation has entered the era of entertainment in the atmosphere of economic development.

In the eyes of most federal people, the news of Marlon Brando playing a big role and divorcing his wife is more interesting than the news that a foreign country has changed its ruler.

(Do a small survey, don’t use Baidu, who knows who the Prime Minister of Italy will be in 2022?)
Moreover, in the past few days, another hot news has occupied all the headlines, and the topic has changed rapidly.

The Commonwealth's newspapers have been flooded with "The Sound of Music."

"Chicago Daily": "How can I praise this movie, he shot all the beauty I can imagine!"

"Washington Post": "The five-day box office is 300 million, the decline is lower than that of Life is Beautiful, he is the king of Hollywood's box office!"

"California Worker": "Elizabeth Taylor's performance is subversive, starting today, she is Maria."

"Manhattan Hot Date": "Sun's classic clothing, Taylor gave us a surprise in advance."

"The New York Times": "The warmth of the family, the same interests of the children, all parents should take their children to see the sound of music. Since the baby boom in 1946, many federal couples have not learned how to be good fathers. Mother, the most correct demonstration is given in it."

　I was busy lecturing in the afternoon, so I was negligent. I postponed it until the evening, and then added another update.
