Chapter 1399 Join

Rhine City.

It is no secret that Britain wants to tinker with the League of Nations in the world, but Britain's performance in the first world is far less dazzling than that in the previous life as a victorious country, so many countries are in a wait-and-see state.

For example, countries with good relations with Germany have obviously taken Germany into consideration whether to join the League of Nations. After all, on the surface, Germany had previously been hostile to the United Kingdom. Will joining the League of Nations offend Germany or have any negative impact on their own interests?

Now, after Britain, France, Germany and Austria have made statements, the establishment of the international alliance will obviously be put on the agenda and the progress will be greatly accelerated.

Ernst looked at European newspapers and the public opinion trend in the whole of Europe has changed significantly recently. He asked: "Can European people accept the alliance psychologically?"

The reason for saying this is because of World War I. During World War I, Britain, France, Germany and Austria, these four countries were life-and-death enemies of two major camps. Both sides made tens of millions of sacrifices. Now they suddenly shake hands and make peace, which is a bit ridiculous no matter how they look at it.

Morin, who is in charge of external intelligence, replied: "Your Majesty, as far as the current public opinion in Europe is concerned, countries such as Britain and Germany are consciously reorganizing the consensus in Europe."

"Compared with national hatred and family hatred, it is obvious that the harm of the World War to Europe is indeed easy to trigger reflection from the European people, so there is also a large market within Europe for establishing an international alliance, a platform for exchanges and resolving disputes."

European people will naturally reflect on the "tragedy" of World War I that almost involved the entire Europe in a tragic war.

Compared with revenge, it is obvious that peace is what the people want. After all, the lower-class people in Europe do not want to go through another world war.

"This so-called international alliance should actually be called the European Union. It is a helpless compromise between the four European countries, and it is beneficial to coordinate the international relations and affairs of Europe."

"There was no such platform for communication before the World War, which was one of the important reasons for the outbreak of the World War."

Morin's words were not without reason. Before World War I, the major European countries basically had their own games and had no smooth channels of contact, which could easily turn some small problems into big problems.

For example, Serbia was triggered. If there was an intelligence exchange platform between countries, it might have prevented the further expansion of the conflict.

Ernst asked: "Do you think that Britain and Germany can let go of their grudges and promote the formation of this international alliance? What impact will this have on us?"

Crown Prince Friedrich said: "It is possible to let the two enemies let go of their hatred and turn to cooperation, unless it is to deal with other enemies. Based on this, combined with the current conflict between Germany and Russia, I think this is an attempt by Europe to deal with external competition and threats."

"Germany's main energy is now to deal with the Russians, while Britain is facing the decline of global hegemony, especially for the United States and us, which is probably the basis for the cooperation between the two countries."

"Of course, I am not optimistic about this kind of cooperation in Europe. The contradictions between European countries are numerous and complex, and each has ulterior motives. Even if the alliance of international can be formed, it is impossible to resolve these contradictions."

In Friedrich's view, Britain and Germany have good ideas, but can they really not be provoked and cooperate sincerely? It can only be said that it is very difficult.

Finance Minister Rogens also said: "Europe is the largest consumer market in the world, and industry is actually declining. Today, industries in East Africa and the United States have actually surpassed the entire Europe."

"The decline in industrial capacity has made it impossible for Europe to easily capture cities and land in the world like before this century."

"Under this situation, it is impossible to expand outward and make the cake bigger. Instead, the market will shrink further due to the rise of regions outside Europe, making it even more impossible for European countries to unite."

"On the contrary, for the sake of the internal European market, competition will continue to intensify, and eventually trigger conflicts between countries again. It is not ruled out that a world war will break out again, or more accurately, the possibility of a European war."

World War I was actually a European war, but because of the participation of extraterritorial countries such as the United States and the Ottomans, it can barely be called a world war. In fact, except for the Middle East, the main battlefield is basically within Europe.

Ernst also agreed with the views of others: "It is definitely impossible for Europe to be united. This time, Britain and Germany promote the international alliance, which should not be considered unity, but seek common ground while reserving differences. Britain defaults on Germany's expansion to Eastern Europe and even the Middle East."

"Which Germany supports the UK and our countries, the two simply do not need to conflict at this stage, and each has its own small plan."

"For example, even if the UK supports Germany's expansion to Eastern Europe and the Middle East, it is based on the premise of fighting the Russian Labor Party, and it will also involve our interests in the Middle East."

"The premise for cooperation between Germany and the UK is naturally that Britain faces pressure from us and the United States. It can be seen that the current international relations are indeed in chaos."

The extra East Africa country has indeed made the world more vague. Many countries may even fall into difficult choices when taking sides.

In his previous life, countries around the world only needed to place bets in Britain and the United States. Britain won the victory in World War I, Germany and France were half dead, while the United States rose strongly outside Europe.

Now, it is difficult to understand the European issue. One UK and Germany can overwhelm other European countries, and in addition to Europe, there are two giants, East Africa and the United States.

This is also a kind of multipolarization to a certain extent, but this multipolar international pattern is disorderly and the most dangerous, especially for small countries and weak countries. If you are not careful, you may be taught a lesson because of your wrong chess.

Ernst said: "However, this also gives us a difficult problem. Now that Britain and Germany have reached a consensus, this means that the establishment of this international alliance has entered the countdown. Should we join it?"

The League of Nations is obviously not limited to international organizations in European countries. At that time, a large number of countries in the world will join, so whether East Africa needs to join the League of Nations has become an issue that needs to be considered by the East African government.

Officials in East Africa also have their own opinions on this issue.

Defense Minister Pripyat said: "Your Majesty, I don't think it's necessary. As for the current development and planning of the empire, we have our own pace. Who knows whether the establishment of this international alliance will put any restrictions on the member states."

"The British proposed this international organization, which must be the starting point to safeguard its interests around the world, is clearly in conflict with our world expansion policy."

At this stage, the foreign policies of East Africa and the United States have become increasingly active. After all, with the improvement of national strength and the rapid development of industry, the demand for markets and raw materials is also increasing.

This may also be the reason why the British government has let go of prejudices and grievances and cooperated with Germany. As the world overlord, the UK always controls the largest territory and market in the world, and industrial countries of East Africa and the United States will undoubtedly pose a threat to the UK if they want to expand externally.

This is just like Germany's challenge to Britain before. As a result, Britain has achieved suppression of Germany as a whole, but facing the two more difficult opponents, East Africa and the United States, the United Kingdom is completely out of control.

Britain can block Germany's seaports, but this trick is completely useless for East Africa and the United States.

Cristiano also supports Pripiat's statement: "Yes, the purpose of Britain and Germany is to use this alliance of international affairs to limit the development of countries outside Europe."

"At that time, Europe will definitely unite on foreign issues on the League of Nations, thereby promoting the implementation of some programs that are not conducive to us and the United States. If we join this league of international affairs, we will be constrained."

This consideration is completely tenable. Ernst even combined with his previous historical experience, Europe did this. The United States refused to join the International League because it was difficult for Britain and France.

Moreover, isolationism has always been prevalent in the United States, and there is a certain conflict between joining the League of Nations and isolationism, a national policy that the United States has implemented for a long time.

Of course, this also has nothing to do with the fact that the League of Nations is a non-strong international organization and joining the League of Nations is of little practical significance.

There are oppositions, and naturally there are support. East African Foreign Minister Frier said: "My opinion on whether to join the League of Nations is that we should join it. This will help us use this platform to strengthen our liaison with other countries, especially non-powerful countries."

"Because of historical reasons, these countries have been influenced and controlled by European powers for a long time. After all, Europe has been the center of modern and modern world civilization for centuries."

"Because of the launch of the Age of Discovery, European countries have established a wide influence around the world. Now that the emergence of the League of Nations, if it can be operated well, it is undoubtedly a platform for us to communicate and communicate with other countries."

"This is also in line with the basic national conditions of the empire's current more active and openness in the diplomatic field, of course, the premise is that the League of Nations will not intervene excessively in East Africa."

"But the fact is that the League of Nations is just a non-strong international organization. Even if European countries intend to suppress it, we can actually ignore it. At worst, withdrawal will not have much impact on us."

This can also be referenced in previous lives. For example, the Soviet Union later joined the League of Nations, which was based on this idea, thus deepening the Soviet Union's international influence, although the Soviet Union was later fired.

But this also shows that the Soviet Union was not recognized by the "international community", and the international community in the early 20th century was generally Europe.

There are naturally people in East Africa who want to gain "international recognition", which is the same as some people in East Africa who are determined to enter the German circle.

But the reality is that East Africa's popularity in the international community can only be said to be average. Even as a country that claims to be Germany, Germany and Austria's attitude towards East Africa changed after the war.

There are only interests between countries. Before World War I, the people of Germany and Austria have always disliked East Africa. At the government level, the relationship is still good because they have sought East Africa.

However, with the industrialization of East Africa and various interest disputes before and after World War I, Germany and Austria's attitude towards East Africa has also changed.

These problems can actually be summarized as problems that East Africa must overcome as a latecomer. Not to mention East Africa, the United States and Germany, two countries with "long-standing history" compared to East Africa, have been excluded and belittled by the "international community" for a long time.

Germany is a "barbarian", the United States is a "nova", and East Africa is even more a "barbarian and nova". Of course, East Africa is not the most "miserable", and there are also a number of countries such as Japan and Russia behind East Africa.

First, the wealth is suppressed and belittled from all aspects and then the wealth is not rich. This is an inevitable problem in terms of human nature and interests.

Compared with the serious "later rich" countries like East Africa, even the United States, Germany and Russia are all in the ranks of "later rich". However, due to the Labor Party, Russia has been automatically summarized as the "enemy" by countries around the world. For the enemy, there is no doubt that all kinds of bad tactics will be used on Russia.

After all, if a latecomer like East Africa can become rich, then naturally, if there are countries, their interests will be damaged. The industrial development of East Africa means that the interests of other industrial countries are damaged.

Although East Africa has become the world's largest industrial country, as the "international community" said, East Africa is indeed a nouveau riche, and East Africa's wealth has not yet been transformed into influence and status, and has been completely accepted by the so-called international community.

This is just like the old European nobles looked down on the new nobles in the past. Of course, if they were not even nobles, they would only be looked down on by the old and new nobles, and they would not even have the chance to be discussed.

Therefore, the negative propaganda of East Africa at present is a "commendation" to a certain extent. This is precisely because East Africa's industry and national strength will inevitably encounter problems after reaching a certain level. Black and red are also red, and many weak and poor countries do not even have such opportunities.

After summarizing the opinions of both sides, Ernst said: "I also have some opinions on the League of Nations."

"At present, East Africa is indeed a latecomer for the international community, and latecomer countries are destined to face many tests. We cannot change the disadvantages of soft power such as international image and public opinion in a short period of time."

"All this depends on our own efforts. As long as we do more and work hard enough, we can continue to make progress. The rest of the world will eventually get used to the fact that East Africa is a world power, which cannot be changed."

"In the next period of time, we should further strengthen the construction of diplomacy, cultural exchanges, foreign trade, international organizations and activities, continuously enhance and reverse the image and influence of East Africa in the world, break the traditional manipulation of world public opinion by European and American powers, and enhance East Africa's voice in the international community."

"Based on this requirement, my attitude towards the international league is to join first. As for the subsequent impact, we can choose to wait and see first."

"Anyway, the League of Nations cannot have too much practical impact on our country's national policy, which can also some extent solve some conspiracy of certain countries that are malicious about the empire, thereby isolating the empire in the international community."

In the case where East Africa's military strength still has influence and has not reached a certain level, East Africa's joining the League of Nations will help reduce some unnecessary troubles, such as being targeted by other countries. Of course, it would be even better if the United States does not choose to join the League of Nations.

Of course, although East Africa intends to join the League of Nations, it is just a temporary wait and see. If there is too much difference with East Africa, East Africa will not mind voluntarily withdrawing like Germany and Japan in their previous lives.
