v3 Chapter 377: Invite the UK to become an observer state?

British Empire, inside Buckingham Palace.

​​

Conversations between the respective teams of William IV of the Netherlands and Queen Victoria of England continued.

​​

"I came to Great Britain this time to meet with my British counterparts, and at the same time to lay a foundation of trust between the two countries, and to have some constructive cooperation with the British Empire."

​​

"Under the current form, the Netherlands-UK, Ho-P, Dutch-French, Dutch-Russian, Anglo-French, Anglo-Russian, British-Prussian relations, etc., there are also some situations that are not so harmonious and pleasant. When there is a lot of interaction between the British people, such as the common interests of the Dutch and British people just mentioned by several people, this proves that the two countries have many similarities."

​​

Dutch Foreign Minister Heisbet. Feng said, "I think the story of mutual trust, mutual support and mutual achievement between them is a very rare and precious warm current and positive energy in the relationship between the UK and the Netherlands. I especially hope that there will be more castings like this between the Netherlands and the UK in the future. The stories of bringing the two countries closer together, heart-warming and people-to-people exchanges between the two peoples can be reported and disseminated by the newspapers and media of the two countries.”

​​

Putting forward the commonalities between the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, and at the same time highlighting the differences and differences between the United Kingdom and the Netherlands and other Prussian, Franco-Russian, Dutch chief diplomats, the Dutch chief diplomat deliberately brought the relationship between the two countries closer. The Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary Russell had to admit that this gave them a step down in the conversation they waited for.

​​

Although everyone knew that this meeting was an easing of the Anglo-Dutch relationship and a further step in the reorganization of the relationship, from the moment when Queen Victoria sent an invitation to William IV to visit the UK, and William IV accepted the invitation, the relationship has been somewhat It came naturally.

​​

However, Britain and the Netherlands pushed Belgium to become a country from the United Kingdom, and the tension between the United Kingdom and the Netherlands has eliminated the possibility of forming an alliance. Therefore, the invitation and invitation of the king of the United Kingdom and the Netherlands have attracted the attention of the whole world.

​​

One of the most powerful powers in the world, a new first-class power recognized by many world leaders: Although the mainland is only a second-class country, its strength in Africa and the Far East is not weaker than that of the mainland. The Netherlands is even stronger overseas than the mainland. One plus one is greater than two. The Netherlands has created an influence that is no weaker than that of a first-class power, and even stronger than Prussia’s overseas influence.

​​

Therefore, the meeting between William IV and Queen Victoria, various countries speculate that it may have a profound impact on the pattern of Europe and the world, and bring about earth-shaking changes to the pattern of Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America and North America.

​​

Soldiers against soldiers against generals, the Dutch Foreign Minister has stood up, and the British Foreign Minister Russell will naturally not rely on the old to sell the old.

​​

Although Russell's qualifications are there, Europe has never been a position that only focuses on qualifications, and practical interests are the focus.

​​

"Your Excellency's words are good, but the British Empire, as the most powerful country in the world, has strengthened its relationship with the Netherlands, which is just the icing on the cake. Although it is necessary to reset our relationship with the Netherlands to improve, it seems that the Netherlands is more important than us. more urgent"

​​

Haysbert. A gentlemanly smile appeared on Feng's face: "That's true, but Your Excellency Russell seems to have forgotten one thing, diplomacy, to put it bluntly, is just a skill in communication, which changes rapidly. It can be improved every day, it just depends on how the interests are divided and how appropriate.”

​​

Haysbert. Although Feng's words were rude and easy to understand, none of those present, including Queen Victoria, were newcomers to the political arena and would feel uncomfortable.

​​

On the contrary, it is easier to talk about the result in such a conversation.

​​

Disraeli saw this, and already understood that the easing of relations between the UK and the Netherlands was inevitable. He knew in his heart that Crown Prince Edward's dislike of the Netherlands seemed to be able to be suppressed temporarily. After all, the Queen's attitude had already left Crown Prince Edward helpless. .

Disraeli was relieved after thinking about it, so he focused his energy on how to open up and let the UK get some benefits from the Netherlands to whitewash his ruling performance under the cabinet government composed of Prime Minister.

​​

Russell heard Haysbert. Although Feng's explanation is a bit far-fetched, it has to be said that what the Dutch foreign minister said also makes sense.

​​

The benefits are given to everyone, and the key is to see how many points are more or less less. The meaning of the foreign minister of the Netherlands is very obvious. I cooperate with you, the United Kingdom, in order to share less of the benefits and go out. If not, then it is not enough. The weak points are given to other countries, why bother to travel all the way to the UK to see your faces.

​​

Thinking of this, Russell also put down this handle, otherwise it would seem that he is a little bit stubborn and clings to the weakness of Holland, which will only cause William IV and Queen Victoria, who are quietly listening to their negotiation, to step down.

​​

Russell said sincerely: "The British Empire is willing to befriend the Netherlands. This is the reason why Her Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom invited Her Majesty William IV of the Netherlands to visit this time. The key is that the United Kingdom needs to ease relations with the Netherlands. Of course, The specific regulations are what we are going to talk about now. I don’t know what the Netherlands thinks the UK can get from it, and what does the Netherlands want from the UK.”

​​

This is the focus of the negotiation and the highlight of this visit.

​​

Ross's words made both William IV and Queen Victoria stop drinking tea, even though the Dahongpao in the Far East is a top-quality tea.

​​

Haysbert. Feng paused, raised his head and asked William IV to ask, and William IV nodded slowly to him under the eyes of several people.

​​

Haysbert. Feng received the signal, looked at Russell sharply, and said, "The Netherlands feels that the relationship between the United Kingdom in North America is not harmonious. Therefore, the Netherlands is willing to help the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth of America to ease the relationship."

​​

Queen Victoria moved in her heart looked at William IV curiously.

​​

Russell immediately asked her doubts.

​​

"However, although the Netherlands has won the control of the Congress of the United States of America, it seems that it is difficult for the Netherlands to influence the overall diplomatic situation between Britain and the United States."

​​

Disraeli also said at this time: "Although you Dutch people have a huge influence in the Commonwealth of Millikin, don't forget that there are other people restricting them. President Lincoln and Secretary Seward will not easily agree, don't they, the Netherlands? Do you want to trade legislative power and personnel power to help the United Kingdom ease its relationship with the Commonwealth of Millikin? No, I think if the Netherlands does this, it will arouse dissatisfaction with the Dutch influence in the Commonwealth of Millikin, those who are anti-British A lot of people will side with the Irish and Germans, which is not good for the Dutch in the next mid-term election and the general election at the end of this year."

​​

That's right, several people in the UK are old fritters. After they figured it out all at once, they don't think that the Netherlands can help the UK to ease relations with the Commonwealth of America. Feng was noncommittal, but instead said solemnly: "The Netherlands has its own way to help the UK. Of course, the premise is that the UK can lend a helping hand to the Netherlands on European issues."

​​

"How to help?" Russell asked.

​​

"We recently organized the Nordic alliance of the three countries of Horidan to hold exercises in the Norwegian Sea and the Baltic Sea. At present, the Russian Empire has been invited to become an observer country, so this time His Majesty's visit to the United Kingdom is also with sincerity. We want to invite the United Kingdom to become an observer country. Observer State of the exercise"
