Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

The agreement brought by Spain and France made the whole world pay attention to this six-nation meeting. All of a sudden, it was directed towards this agreement.

Newspapers and media from various countries have shown strong reporting momentum one by one.

"An alliance between France and Spain?"

The Daily News of England was the first to hang such a headline on the top edge of its front page.

When meeting with visiting Spanish Prime Minister Chávez, French Prime Minister Gaston Dumelo said that France will work with Spain to recreate the history of friendship between the two countries and will cooperate for the development of many aspects of the two countries, especially Strategically, the two countries will open up a huge space, allowing the two countries to better serve the interests of both countries. And the two countries will change it into a system of heads of state talks by recognizing each other's current overseas territories, being frank about the conflicts between the two countries, and strengthening communication between the two countries, such as the annual heads of government talks.

In addition, the two countries will increase mutual military trust between each other. Therefore, the two countries will conduct a series of military cooperation between the two countries. For example, this year France will participate for the first time in the Mediterranean phase of the Spanish-led Alliance Gold Cobra exercise. France will participate as a formal member state, and the navies of the two countries have decided that the two countries will establish a Mediterranean Alliance specifically on the issue of the Mediterranean, using it as a base to launch an alliance to safeguard the interests of the Mediterranean. This plan, It is known from Dumelo’s announcement that the participating countries are: France, Spain, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Hungary. These four countries will also hold an annual two-on-two ministerial mechanism jointly participated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the Minister of Finance. , will be held in the four countries in turn. This year it will be in June, and the first edition will be held in Barcelona.

And Doumergue finally pointed out that the results this time were very fruitful, which was enough to make his trip to England worthwhile. This made the six-nation meeting that starts tomorrow seem to have become something between the lines of the Prime Minister's words. It’s even more insignificant. Politicians in London, I don’t know, have you noticed this change? "

The publication of this newspaper showed that his neutrality is very strong, and this analogy also shows. This country was in a quasi-alliance between France and Spain. Still indifferent, as to whether this is the case or not, it is difficult to know.

“The close proximity of Spain and France worries the world!”

The second newspaper was naturally from the newspaper of the German Empire, which had already set its sights on it. "Prussian Strong" is a German newspaper with a strong democratic outlook. The newspaper has always used the interests of the German Empire as the best entry point. to carry out various reports, especially in terms of inspiring national pride and xenophobia.

"Spanish Prime Minister Charles and French Prime Minister Doumergue showed off an enviable dance in front of the six so-called major countries in the world, which surprised many people. This secret room meeting made people feel that they were two What the two countries have shown is a close relationship. In doing so, the two countries are obviously conducting more tests in the world, testing the host Britain, testing Germany, which has been excluded from this conference, and testing the United States, which is trying to get closer to France.

The United States is pursuing a European strategy in order to get close to major European countries so that the United States can have close ties with major European countries and prevent the United States from becoming an isolationist power. It is not difficult to understand the original intention of the Wilson government. They are a collective doctrine, rather than continuing to implement Shantou isolationism. After all, the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans are not so wide as to be natural barriers that can withstand any threats.

Originally, many people thought that the United States would be able to capture the appetite of Britain and France this time. Let these two countries open the door of convenience, let them completely integrate into the world, and completely let the United States reappear in the world.

However, it is a pity that Wilson's plan did not really work out as he wished. The world knows a lot about America's thoughts, but it's actually not difficult to guess.

Although the United States has always been the world's largest economy nearly two decades ago, military development in recent years, especially naval development, has already entered the fast lane.

Even powerful countries such as Spain, Britain, and Germany have to admit that the current U.S. Navy has already ranked among the top five in the world in terms of the number of warships and actual capabilities, surpassing the Kingdom of Italy and Japan, and ranking only behind France.

Such a country, if it were in Europe, would already have a status similar to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, until now, everyone has only given this largest economy a position at the end of the first-class power. Its status is not even as good as the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which is far inferior to the United States in the world economy, and even the Ottoman Empire, a country in the Mediterranean. The sick man of Europe. It's really sad and annoying.

Therefore, the German Empire should gather countries that are not accepted by the old world power system to establish a new world system and achieve a more balanced world view. "

It is true that the "Prussian Strong" still cannot escape this kind of position analysis, but everyone is used to it. As for the citizens of the German Empire, they will naturally not reject such a view, because this is their position and view. , preconceived, they decided that this was a very fair report.

"Geopolitical Change in Southern Europe?" United States, The New York Times.

This report from the United States attracted the attention of the world. Because it represents a more substantial depth.

"Spain's participation in this six-nation meeting is itself a matter of concern. However, Spain's attention this time is still the same as before, and it stands out even more.

Yesterday, on the first day before the meeting, Spain and France had a tense secret meeting. The final result could not be worse for the United States.

Many people think that this meeting is just about drinking tea and chatting. In fact, what it represents is difficult to measure.

For example, Frankfurt agreed to hold an annual heads of state meeting with Spain, which allowed the two countries to meet with their top leaders once a year. Therefore, the ministers must pay more attention to this meeting every year and evaluate the content. .

The dispute will involve more compromises between the two parties before the talks. For the next development, the two countries will make more design drafts, and more importantly, the think tanks of the two countries will work on economic and diplomatic issues related to the development of each country. , and when it comes to major national policies, they often take care of the country's interests or concerns and choose to fine-tune the policy in order to make the atmosphere more harmonious.

Therefore, this heads-of-state meeting has taken them beyond a certain relationship between countries.

The second is the military changes between them. With Spain allowing France to participate in the Golden Snake and Cobra military exercises in the Mediterranean, this has allowed France to become a quasi-ally of Spain. This status is enough for France to follow The relationship in Spain is in stark contrast to what it was before. Such an impact will definitely shock the bad guys.

The military development of the two countries has already reached the level of hostility to their allies. Coupled with the 2+2 four-party talks between Hungary-Ottoman Spain-France, this has been enough to change the situation in the Mediterranean.

These four countries already account for 40% of the total population of Europe, and the links between these four countries through the Mediterranean Sea have reached the point of being connected by water. Therefore, according to this newspaper's view, these four countries will form a pattern of dominating southern Europe. "

As the host country of the UK, naturally, the local media reported on this meeting even more vigorously.

The Times, as the leading newspaper in the UK, will never give up on any bit of this meeting. In fact, they want to use this meeting to open up the international market, hoping to achieve results similar to those of the Madrid Journal and the Spanish The Daily has become a major international media. Of course, similar to Spain's "Times" and Switzerland's "International Connection", the two most watched publications in the world, for them, it is now just A being they look up to.

However, as the two countries became hostile, as Italy joined the German array, as France did not occupy enough weight in front of Britain, and as Spain rose strongly. With so many developments, the situation in Europe has finally begun to evolve. France and Spain are preparing for an alliance, and Germany and Austria (referring to Austria) intend to form a partnership. The United Kingdom continued to watch from afar, across the English Channel, and Tsarist Russia, which France had tried its best to win over before, was now a little messy. It seemed that it was like a child that was abandoned all of a sudden. No one could understand him. future or what the next step will be.

But that doesn't matter. The United States, which only faces each other across the sea, seems confused at this moment. However, it seems that the United States already has the desire to enter Europe, get rid of the diplomatic isolationist policy brought to them by the British, and learn to Just like the British intervening in the European continent, they choose to control Europe and the Asian continent, which seems to be better than the past.

As a result, the situation where Britain has always been the dominant power will be broken by this. With the combined power and strength of the four countries, Britain is no longer able to dominate the Mediterranean. Does the United States' move to obtain Britain's consent to sell the Philippines represent a new diplomatic attitude of the United Kingdom? Or, to put it another way, does the United Kingdom begin to accept the United States as a diplomacy that gains its respect, similar to remote-controlled Eurasia? What about the continent’s Atlantic partners?

Many people have begun to doubt this. After all, Spain and France are allied, are Britain and the United States still far behind? (To be continued...)
