Chapter 179 Foreign Ministers' Meeting

"The foreign minister representatives of the United States, Europe and Russia met in Madrid, and the force was in a storm in the head of the Kuangqiuyu.

Although the main topics discussed in the four sides are not much related to the ongoing war, so Pakistan and other participating countries have not been involved, the four most influential countries and regions in the world have set aside the parties and decided the future of an independent and sovereign state, which is at least morally unreasonable.

When conducting related reports, Western news media without exception quoted the "Munich Negotiation."

Anyone who knows a little history knows that in the infamous "Munich Negotiations", Britain and France betrayed Czechoslovakia for their own interests and satisfying Nazi Germany's ambitions. Although today is not the same as before, India cannot be compared with Czechoslovakia in the past, after all, India has two regimes, and neither regime is recognized by all countries. More importantly, the main content of the negotiations is not to cede land, but to solve India's post-war problems. However, in the eyes of many Western commentators, the four sides betrayed India's future by putting aside the parties and international organizations and privately deciding India's future is itself betrayed India.

The comments from Western news media must have ulterior motives.

The American news media represented by Deletion are on the surface creating pressure on Sallivan who participated in the negotiations, and influenced the US Congress through public opinion. They hope to restrict the actions of the US federal government through Congress, but in fact they are putting pressure on the Republic. If the negotiations cannot realize the interests of the United States, the United States will not recognize the results of the negotiations and will not compromise on the issue of India. To put it bluntly, it is through public opinion that the Republic must make concessions on the issue of India and share Indian interests with the United States before the United States will make concessions in the negotiations.

It is not difficult to understand the intentions of the US news media when contacting the secret negotiations between China and the United States.

According to the relevant information provided by the Military Intelligence Agency to the Federation of Industry and Commerce of the Republic and the negotiating team, American companies began to withdraw their investment from India long before the war broke out, and prepared to evacuate their personnel during the war. After the war broke out, most American people in India left India within two days. At that time, the American corporate organization led by the American consortium formulated a plan to fully withdraw from India after the war. Although the thugs did not mention the way to evacuate India. However, almost all American companies with business in the printing industry believed that after the war India was no longer suitable for investment in American companies, and to ensure the interests of American companies, in addition to retrieving capital as soon as possible, they also had to rely on the power of the government. It is precisely because during the war, lobbying groups from major American corporate guilds entered Washington, carried out lobbying work in both houses of Congress, and demanded Congress urge the government. When necessary, the interests of American companies should be protected by the government.

This is the reason why Brandino asked Sallivan to secretly contact the Republic's Foreign Minister Yan Shanglong.

For American companies in India, there are only two results: one is that all assets are confiscated by the Indian government, and the other is that the assets are sold to third parties.

Although the US government can provide subsidies to damaged companies by freezing India's assets in the United States, India's assets in the United States are less than 10% of the United States' investment in India. That is to say, even if all Indian assets in the United States are frozen, they cannot compensate for the losses of American companies.

The ideal way to suppress is to sell assets to third parties. If you read the new chapter of the Valve Exhibition, choose the book "Old Xiao Ningqin"

The only consortiums and enterprises in the Republic are truly capable and willing to buy American companies in India.

From the standpoint of American companies, what they want is nothing more than more benefits to sell assets that have been destroyed by war and are worthless at a better price.

The US news media created momentum at this time to make India's post-war issues arguably, simply to let the Republic's consortiums and enterprises know that the United States will not make easy political concessions. If the Republic wants to control India, it must first acquire the assets of American companies in India. Of course, doing so can also make the Republic's government believe that the acquisition of American companies in India. It can make the Madrid negotiations simpler.

European news media followed suit and made a similar purpose.

Although European companies have also invested a lot in India, relatively speaking, European companies have not obtained a barrier status in India. Therefore, they have been much less affected.

From the European standpoint, you can see that European news media are hyping up the purpose of Madrid negotiations.

Everyone knows that after the war, the first thing the Republic deals with was the United States. Because Lurajapani had confiscated a large number of enterprises during the war, the Republic, to be precise, does not need to do anything at all. As long as Lurajapani's actions are carried out to the end, American enterprises can leave India in shame.

The question is, can the Republic dominate India?

The tough performance of the United States gives Xuzhou enough reason to believe that the Republic cannot dominate India.

Since the Republic does not have the ability to dominate India, it has to find a few allies. The weight of several participating countries such as Kistan, Nepal, Bangladesh is too light and does not play a big role. If they add their alliance with the Republic, it is also difficult to help the Republic in negotiations. In other words, the Republic needs at least one powerful ally to completely drive the United States out of India by sharing the benefits brought by India's post-war reconstruction.

There are not many countries and regions with this ability, the first choice is the EU.

From the perspective of national game, the EU cannot immediately turn to the republic, otherwise it will be at the mercy of the republic. The first thing the EU has to do is to follow the United States to put pressure on the republic, and cannot be a sucker, and can only follow the United States. After forcing the republic to make concessions, the EU will change its camp and first recognize the republic's post-war policy in India. Secretly suppress the United States with the republic, thereby ensuring the interests of the EU to the greatest extent.

It is precisely this that European news media said to "take the opportunity to put pressure on the Republic. Of course. In the four-party negotiations, Russia is the most embarrassing thing.

As a "quasi-world power." Russia has the weakest national strength and cannot support global hegemony at all, so it does not have the basic conditions for competing for global interests with the Republic and the United States. However, Russia is not willing to act as a regional newcomer, especially when the global economy emerges from the shadow of the Great Depression and the prices of raw materials quickly rebound and the national strength increases again. Russia hopes to participate in international affairs as a world power and plays a more important role on the international stage.

From a realistic perspective, Russia has no other choice.

As the Republic becomes the country with the strongest comprehensive national strength, Russia's geopolitical territory has been greatly affected. In addition to Mongolia's policy towards the republic and even once there were calls for "return" by thugs, Central Asia, as a buffer zone between Russia and the Republic, is also turning, and its relationship with the republic is becoming increasingly close. In addition to the Republic's influence in Iran, if Russia cannot play a more important role in the international stage, it will be compressed into a very small space. The result can be imagined that when the three strategic directions of the east, south and west are surrounded by the republic and the EU, Russia will never become a world power, at most it is a regional power.

Judging from the national character, this is by no means the result Russia is willing to see.

It is precisely because Russia regards India's post-war issue as a stage for fully exerting its influence as a major power. If Russia can make a difference on India's post-war issue, its international status will definitely be enhanced and its influence on neighboring countries will be greatly enhanced.

From the perspective of real interests, Russia does not want to lose the big cake of India's post-war reconstruction.

You should know that Russia is the world's largest exporter of raw materials, and India's post-war reconstruction will definitely require a large amount of raw materials. India itself does not have enough resources and will definitely require a large amount of imports. This alone is enough to allow more than half of Russian companies to live a good life for more than a decade.

Influenced by the country's basic policies, it is not surprising that Russian news media makes a big spoil.

The intense bombardment of news reports quickly attracted the attention of audiences around the world.

Is this a negotiation that can bring a bright future to Kouyi Indians, or is it the second "Munich Negotiation"?

Everyone has such questions in their minds, so they pay special attention to the negotiation process.

In the first round of meetings of the thugs Week, the four parties did not reach a substantial agreement.

According to Sallivan's request, after the war, the Republic must open the Indian market, and enterprises of any country have the same status in India, enjoy equal treatment, and have the right to participate in post-war reconstruction. Yan Shanglong did not give a positive answer to Sallivan's proposal, but instead took "Indian affairs to be decided by the Indians" as Ran, and did not recognize that the Republic will manipulate the Indian government after the war. He would not be responsible for the actions of the Indian government.

Of course, neither of them fell into the spotlight.

Sallivan only made requirements but did not mention obligations. Fundamentally speaking, post-war reconstruction is a public welfare nature, with the main purpose of restoring social public infrastructure and restoring the normal ability of society to operate normally. Most projects are basic investment, not capital investment.

Generally speaking, this type of construction work is undertaken by the government, and enterprises are responsible for the specific work in the form of bidding. Because India's post-war reconstruction is not normal, it cannot be entirely undertaken by the government, but must be undertaken by the society. In other words, enterprises participating in post-war reconstruction must bear social obligations. In this way, obligations must be more important than interests. Sallivan did not mention obligations, so he naturally refused to bear obligations. If American companies refused to bear their due social obligations, why should they open the market to American companies?

In fact, this also reflects Sallivan's concerns.

It is a certain thing to assume obligations, but after taking on obligations, who can guarantee the interests of American companies? The reconstruction work is sure that the Ran government is responsible, and the company is only a partner, not a leader. In other words, if the American company promises to assume the reconstruction obligations, the Indian government cannot effectively guarantee the interests of American companies. As a result, not only will it take a bamboo basket to get water, but it will also lose both the wife and the army, and in the end it will not get anything.

Of course, Yan Shanglong's view is even more doubtful.

As the winner of the war, even if Wang Yuanqing personally guaranteed that he would not interfere in India's internal affairs, no one would believe it. You must know that Wang Yuanqing was leaving office at the beginning of the year, and India's post-war reconstruction began. Will the next head of republic continue to fulfill its promise? Even if so, who would believe it? The essence of the problem is that the Republic interferes in India's internal affairs is easy, and it will not leave much handle, at least it will not give any evidence from other countries. As long as there is no way to prove that the Republic interferes in India's internal affairs, Western countries can only accuse the Indian government at most, and it is impossible to target the Republic.

Influenced by this, the EU representative and French Foreign Minister Nolanki proposed that a detailed process and division of labor should be formulated for India's post-war reconstruction work, and it should be recognized by all parties in a legally binding peace, so as to ensure that all countries can actively participate in India's post-war reconstruction work and assume social obligations in reconstruction work. Of course, the French Foreign Minister has not forgotten the most important thing, that is, the Republic must not interfere in India's internal affairs in the form of a peace treaty, and the only way to take is to conduct a democratic election under the supervision of the international community. Before that, the Republic must do three things well, one is to withdraw troops from India, the other is to maintain social stability in India, and the third is to provide basic conditions for the election.

According to the proposal of the French Foreign Minister, the Russian Foreign Minister also made a suggestion, namely, end the war as soon as possible. The time of India's post-war political reconstruction was determined to restore India's position in the United Nations as soon as possible, thereby ensuring India's solo status. To this end, the Russian Foreign Minister first guaranteed that as long as the legitimacy of the Indian regime is confirmed, Russia will first initiate a proposal at the United Nations to restore India's seat in the United Nations.

Although the EU and Russia's suggestions are constructive, the main problems are still in the Republic and the United States.

As long as the Republic and the United States cannot reach an agreement, the meeting cannot make progress.

On the 7th of the Old Month, the second round of meetings began.

This time, Sallivan made more preparations and proposed to deal with the issue of post-war reconstruction in India in accordance with the "world trade principle".

Simply put, the "World Trade Principles" are the basic trade principles revised according to the terms of the "World Trade Organization" on the verge of bankruptcy. Because the thug "World Trade Principles" have become in name only, the "World Trade Principles" themselves have no binding force. In the words of Western news media, in the context of almost all countries not abide by the changing trade principles and trade returns to the bilateral era, Sallivan's proposal has no meaning.

In fact, Sallivan’s proposal really doesn’t make much sense.

From the very beginning, Yan Shanglong firmly opposed the use of the "universal principle" to resolve the post-war problems of India, because the post-war problems of India are ultimately a legacy of war, not a trade conflict. Solving the post-war problems of India by resolving trade disputes is equivalent to drugging randomly. The problem cannot be solved at all.

According to Yan Shanglong's proposal, the issue of post-war reconstruction in India is too broad, and the main body is India, not China, the United States, Europe and Russia. Therefore, we should wait until India restores normal political order and society becomes stable. Negotiations are carried out with the participation of the Indian government. The main current issue is to determine India's post-war status, determine India's political system, establish a widely recognized central government, restore social and political order, and provide humanitarian aid.

At this point, the EU first changed its attitude.

According to Yan Shanglong's proposal, the French president proposed that the Republic must promise to end the military operations as soon as possible, and determine the interim central government of India by the final result of the war, and then provide humanitarian assistance to India to help Indian society restore normal order. After the war is lifted, a national election will be held within half a year, and a new constitution will be determined through the general election. The constitution will determine India's political system. The French Foreign Minister also made a commitment that France will recognize the new Indian regime established through the general election and provide assistance during the general election.

After the EU changed its attitude, Russia immediately changed its attitude and promised to provide humanitarian assistance to India.

Speaking of this, the main topic of the meeting changed.

The only thing that the United States, Europe and Russia care about most is one thing, that is, when will the war end?

Yan Shanglong did not vaguely on this issue, and made it clear that the large-scale military operation would end within the year, and then spent three to six months to wipe out the remnants of the Haidebala regime, withdraw troops from India at the latest at the end of the childhood, and hold a national election in India.

While making the promise, Yan Shanglong also made it clear that the United States, Europe and Russia must promise not to contain the Indian exiled regime.

Because both the EU and Russia have stated that they will recognize India's elected government, Sallivan has not been too entangled with the issue of exile regime.

Of course, all parties have made promises on the issue of humanitarian aid.

After Yan Shanglong guaranteed that the Republic would provide India with tens of millions of tons of food and provide India with key technologies and resources to resume agricultural production, the United States, Europe and Russia made corresponding commitments, saying that after the war, it would provide India with millions to tens of millions of tons of food aid, as well as the tools and materials needed to resume agricultural production. Because humanitarian aid is related to international food prices, the foreign ministers of the four sides signed a confidentiality agreement and promised to use the country's strategic reserve of grain instead of buying food from the market.

It can be said that this is one of the most significant achievements of the Quartet Talks.

Unfortunately, the news was not disclosed to the public under the constraints of the confidentiality agreement.

At the end, the Foreign Minister of the Four-way Army did the last thing. On the old month, the heads of the Four-way Army will hold a formal meeting in Moscow to discuss the issue of post-war reconstruction in India more in-depth.

Once the news was announced, it immediately became the new focus of international public opinion.

The confirmation of a summit meeting indicates that the meeting between the four foreign ministers has achieved substantial results, otherwise there would be no need to bother the head of state and the head of government to meet in Moscow.

In the event that substantial results have been achieved, the summit meeting is nothing more than announcing the results.

On the old month, the Republic, the United States, the European Union, France and the Russian governments successively released the main results of the meeting between the four foreign ministers in the form of press conferences or press conferences.

In the meantime, the whole world believed that the war was about to end.

The question is. Will the war end soon?

There is no doubt that Ran is too optimistic.

The news released by the four sides clearly mentioned that the four sides' foreign ministers' meeting mainly discussed the post-war issues in India. Since it is a post-war issue, it should be a matter after the end of the war. In other words, the results of the four sides' foreign ministers' meeting can only be achieved after the end of the war.

As a result, inter-public opinion quickly turned.

When will the war end?

As Al Jazeera took the lead in releasing "reliable news" that a senior official of the Republic has stated in informal occasions that the Republic has the ability to end large-scale military operations within the year, global news media have pointed their cameras at the Indian battlefield.

Does the Republic have the ability to finish this "blitzkrieg" within the year?
