Start 1861: I just inherited the Dutch throne

Chapter 1134: Fight the Dutch to the end, London’s counterattack plan

The Netherlands passed the "Relationships with Ireland Act", which triggered other countries such as Spain, France, the Russian Empire, and the United States to follow suit, completely angering the United Kingdom.

British Foreign Secretary Greville George Leveson Gower declared that he would not give up turning a blind eye to the actions of the thugs on the island of Ireland. At the same time, he condemned other countries led by the Netherlands for providing weapons to the Irish thugs and interfering in the internal affairs of the United Kingdom. , calling on other countries not to follow the Netherlands in anti-British behavior.

At the same time, Britain privately asked the European land allies, the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, to stand up and join the UK in condemning these countries' interference in Britain's internal affairs.

However, the two countries are evasive, apparently unwilling to cause controversy at this critical moment in the limelight.

Especially since there are more than 50,000 Irish people in these two countries, this will offend these Irish people.

The Relations with Ireland Act will be a domestic law passed by the Dutch Parliament that came into effect on September 1882, 9. According to this law, the Netherlands will work with all Irish people to promote the development of relations.

The Netherlands claims that although it does not have formal diplomatic relations with Ireland, the United Kingdom effectively occupies the island of Ireland.

On September 1882, 9, the bill passed by the Dutch Parliament was signed by Prime Minister Jourdannet and submitted to King William IV.

Britain knew that it could no longer stop it at this time, not to mention that Britain and the Netherlands had been at odds with each other for many years and the two countries did not have direct diplomatic relations.

During this period, the United Kingdom used the Kingdom of Sweden as a country to convey its voice, but this time it seemed that it was in vain.

On September 1882, 9, King William IV of the Netherlands officially signed into effect the "Relationships with Ireland Act" to regulate future relations between the Netherlands and Ireland.

Pursuant to this law passed by the Dutch Parliament, the Government of the United States is required to continue to maintain global cooperation between the Dutch people and the Irish people, including commercial, cultural and other relations, in order to promote the foreign policy of the Netherlands, and with foreign governments or similar bodies. Every project or interaction carried out or carried out will be applicable to the Irish people.

The content of this law formally established the goals of the Dutch policy towards Ireland, including maintaining the status of the Irish in the UK, maintaining the life and property rights of the Irish in the UK, maintaining the cultural and commercial relations between the Irish and the Netherlands, and protecting the Irish people. The right to exist and the security of Irish people around the world.

This law clearly stated its opposition to the British government's oppression of the Irish and expressed support for the Irish to establish an autonomous Irish-ruled government with the British government under appropriate circumstances.

The Netherlands clearly opposes the British threat to the security of the Irish people. At the same time, the Netherlands will support the Irish people in the Netherlands to establish various institutions to maintain the supervision of the survival and security of Irish people around the world.

This law also clearly requires the Dutch government to supervise and maintain the safety of the Irish on the island of Ireland and prevent British oppression of the Irish.

At the same time, the Netherlands was required to provide defensive weapons to the Irish so that they could fight in the face of violent suppression by the British government and army.

The Netherlands will also resist British oppression of the Irish around the world and help the Irish continue to survive in a safe environment around the world.

Even this law mentions that the Netherlands is obliged to send troops to provide security for the Irish on the island of Ireland once the British resort to comprehensive repression to deal with the Irish genocide.

This law states that at this stage, Ireland does not recognize that it interacts with the Netherlands as a country, but it does deal with it as an entity.

This law also authorizes the Dutch government to establish the "Global Irish Support Association" to represent the physical channel for exchanges between the Netherlands and Ireland.

This Dutch law was published in detail in globally influential newspapers such as "European Times".

Now, Britain is even more angry. Buckingham Palace even held an emergency meeting.

Queen Victoria, Prime Minister Gladstone, Foreign Secretary Gravell, and British Crown Prince Prince Edward held a small-scale meeting.

“According to the content of this law passed by the Dutch Parliament and signed into effect by Jurda Netan and William IV, the first element declared by this law is to maintain peace, security and stability in the Atlantic Ocean, and the second is to authorize Continuing commercial, cultural, and other interactions between the Dutch and the Irish to promote American foreign policy.

The third is the foreign policy of the Netherlands, which promotes extensive and close exchanges between the Netherlands and Ireland. Declaring a peaceful and stable environment for the Irish people on the island of Ireland in the best interests of the Dutch, British and Irish people.

At the same time, the Netherlands also called on us, the UK, to use peaceful consultation methods with the Irish to promote a peaceful environment for the future of the island of Ireland.

Fourth, the Netherlands resists any British efforts to suppress the future of the Irish by forcefully suppressing Ireland. The Netherlands believes that such a British approach is not only inconsistent with the interests of the Netherlands, but also inconsistent with the power that Ireland should have, and is detrimental to the security of the Irish people around the world. threats and will treat such situations as a matter of serious concern for Dutch diplomacy. "

Fifth, this Dutch law also requires the Dutch government to provide defensive weapons to the Irish to protect themselves.

Sixth, the Dutch government has the responsibility to help the Irish formulate some policies to maintain the unity of the Irish around the world. For example, the Dutch Parliament will provide a certain amount of funds every year to maintain the existence of the "Global Irish Support Association" and keep the Irish with Dutch intimacy.

Seventh, any provision of this law will not violate the relationship between human rights in the Dutch domestic constitution, especially the concern for the human rights of tens of millions of Irish residents around the world. It is the goal of the Netherlands to safeguard and promote the human rights of the Irish people around the world. .

"

As Foreign Minister Greville read out the new bill establishing the Netherlands one by one, the other three people present looked very gloomy.

"What the Netherlands is doing is simply courting death. Her Majesty the Queen, I think we should adopt a tougher policy towards the Netherlands." The 41-year-old said angrily no longer able to hold back.

Prince Edward was too loud. The other people couldn't help but frown.

"Your Majesty, I also think the Prince of Wales is right. The Netherlands is simply seriously provoking our bottom line. If this continues, they may have to interfere with our affairs in Scotland."

Unexpectedly, Prime Minister Gladstone agreed with Prince Edward's view. This made Prince Edward look surprised.

These two people have never dealt with each other, and it can even be said that they have serious differences from time to time, but now they are surprisingly consistent?

Queen Victoria was also stunned and glanced at Gladstone curiously, "You know it's not easy for the Netherlands to do this."

Greville said seriously: "The purpose of the Netherlands is impure, but we don't know it. Instead of guessing like this, it is better to react according to the normal reaction. We can better observe the purpose of the Netherlands."

Hearing this, the Queen nodded in agreement, "Then let's do it this way."

Prince Edward couldn't help but wonder, how would Greville fight back against the Netherlands?
