Today, at the Warsaw Central Railway Station, there were crowds of people and security guards, and government officials were also waiting for something. Sure enough, after a while, two trains slowly entered the platform, and at this time, the waiting officials came out one after another to prepare.
The welcoming crowd was also well prepared. One could tell the grandness of this welcoming ceremony.
Yes, this was the train of Edel and his party. When the train stabilized, Polish Prime Minister Grabski took his wife onto the platform as the main greeter. Edel also took Queen Sophie Marie off the train.
Prime Minister Grabski walked forward with a smile on his face and bowed slightly to express his respect for Eder, and then greeted him: "Welcome His Majesty and his wife to come to Poland as guests."
"Thank you to the Prime Minister and his wife for personally coming to greet you. I am very scared."
Edel naturally stepped forward and held Prime Minister Grabski's hand, and spoke with a smile. As for the two ladies on the other side, they naturally also had a friendly exchange with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, reporters who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward and took pictures of them. I believe that tomorrow’s news about the good neighborliness and friendly cooperation between Baltic and Polish countries will appear on the headlines of newspapers.
After the reporters took the photos, they naturally laid flowers, and then Edel delivered some friendly remarks on the Baltic and Polish countries. The welcoming ceremony at the train station was successfully completed.
Then the group got into a convoy of Volkswagen cars and drove towards the Warsaw Palace.
The Royal Palace of Warsaw was built at the end of the 13th century during the period of the Principality of Mazovia. The oldest building in the palace is the Gothic "Grand Courtyard" built in the first half of the 14th century. It was used as the residence of the Grand Duke of Mazovia. This will also become
This is where Edel and his party settled.
After sending Edel and his party to the Warsaw Palace, Prime Minister Grabski then said: "President Wojciechowski has prepared a welcome dinner and invites you to enjoy it."
Facing the invitation from the Polish Prime Minister, Edel, who was well prepared, responded politely: "Thank you for your government's hospitality. We will definitely attend on time."
After receiving the answer, Prime Minister Grabski left with satisfaction. Eder looked at the attachés behind him and told them: "Everyone, let's go to rest first. We will attend the Polish welcome dinner in the evening."
After sending all the attachés away, Edel left Admiral Freiit alone. "At tonight's dinner, you should pay attention to see if Piłsudski is present. If he is present, you have met him.
We can have a conversation and deepen our relationship."
Facing Edel's words, Admiral Freit nodded and replied, "Understood, Your Majesty."
Edel has no reason not to do this, because the current relationship between Piłsudski and Prime Minister Grabski is not harmonious, and the power of the Polish government is basically controlled by the Prime Minister. Even if his comrade Wojciechowski becomes president,
It didn't have much of a containment effect. That's why Edel specifically reminded this matter, because Piłsudski was the one who had the last laugh.
So at the welcome dinner that started in the evening, Edel actually saw Piłsudski. However, he was wearing an old military uniform, which seemed incompatible with the dinner environment, and around him there was President Wojciechhof who was hosting the dinner.
Ski et al.
"Your Majesty Edel, welcome to Poland. On behalf of the Polish people, I welcome your Majesty's visit here."
Just as Edel was observing Piłsudski and others, a voice interrupted his interest in continuing to observe. Prime Minister Grabski walked up to him with a wine glass.
"Thank you for your warm hospitality. I have deeply felt the enthusiasm of the Polish people."
Facing Prime Minister Grabski, who is in charge of the government, Edel of course had to show his kindness in return.
"The economic and trade exchanges between our two countries have brought huge benefits to the people of both countries. I am wondering whether we should strengthen cooperation in other fields. You must know that our two countries also have common interests in other fields, such as preventing the Soviet Union, and
On matters such as German surveillance, both of us should work together to safeguard the same interests."
When Eder heard the words of the Polish Prime Minister in front of him, he immediately became vigilant. His first reaction was that this was a conspiracy. Is the French behind Prime Minister Grabski?
Who doesn’t know the reason for the current economic and trade prosperity between Romania and Germany, which is the source of Romania’s strengthening of its industrial system. At present, Romania has only one German-style industrial standard, and Germany has to deal with who supplies technical equipment to it.
Therefore, facing the words of the Polish Prime Minister in front of him, Edel had no choice but to say it. "Sorry, our country is already struggling to deal with the Soviet threat in the east. We currently do not have extra energy to deal with the complex situation in Central Europe."
Even though Edel was determined, Prime Minister Grabsky still refused to give up.
"I can understand your Majesty's situation. We don't need your country to put much energy into Germany. We only need your country to express its stance. This can further consolidate the friendship and economic, trade and military cooperation between the two countries."
Prime Minister Grabski's words made Edel feel as if he had eaten a fly. Who did he think he was, daring to direct Romania's diplomatic strategy?
Edel suppressed his inner displeasure and replied coldly. "Of course our country hopes to strengthen economic, trade and military cooperation with Poland, but we currently have no way to coordinate our attitude towards Germany with your country."
At this time, Eder's words finally made the Polish Prime Minister give up, but it can be seen from his unyielding and subtle expression that he still will not give up.
This is also understandable. Poland was founded on the annexation of the territories of Germany and Russia. Although the Poles say that this is the original territory of the Kingdom of Poland since ancient times, Germany and Russia must be willing to believe it, so for Germany and Russia
Poland has always been very vigilant.
Now that the Poles have finally found a strong ally at a considerable cost, there is no reason not to want to plucking a sheep's wool. That's why Prime Minister Grabski made the above remarks.
Because the Poles currently conclude that Romania needs Poland as an ally to deal with the threat of the Soviet Union. Even if they are unhappy with Germany, they will still put aside their unhappiness for security, economic and trade reasons.
Of course, if Romania agrees to agree with Poland on its attitude towards Germany, then they will make a lot of money. First of all, they are equivalent to finding a complete military ally. In addition, when discussing issues with France towards Germany, Poland will be more
Have the confidence to ask for more benefits.
After all, the Baltic countries combined have already surpassed France in terms of population and territory, but there is a gap in military and diplomacy. But unfortunately, their plan was rejected by the Romanians.
As for Eder and his party, they waited until the end of the dinner with mixed tastes. Because the Romanian delegation attending the dinner had more or less encountered this situation. This cast a shadow on the visit to Poland.
