"Mr. Ambassador. Head of State Akado ’s Special Envoy Goff has just left the United States for less than a month. It stands to reason that I should not be so eager to come to you at this moment to discuss these issues, but Germany and Turkey are cooperating in the Middle East. Let us be deeply disturbed. "Upon meeting, President Roosevelt of the United States immediately showed his dissatisfaction with the situation in the Middle East.
The German ambassador is of course prepared, and this important diplomat has already been notified of the position in the country. So the German ambassador immediately replied to Roosevelt: "Mr. President, the interest of the United States in the Middle East is not of interest to Germany. We are only working for world peace."
Roosevelt wanted to clap the table and tell the German ambassador
You are waging war!
But he finally gave up the useless hysterical roar:
I only saw a new war, and I did n’t see Germany thinking of ending the war. "
"Mr. President, Germany originally hoped to achieve peace with the Soviet Union in the west and the United Kingdom in the east. You have also seen that both the defeated Vichy France and the North Britain have signed a peace agreement with Germany." The German ambassador replied: " However, the Stalin government of the Soviet Union and the original British royal family in Iceland refused to conduct peace talks with Germany, which made the head of state deeply worried about the war situation facing Germany. "
"You know that we are a peace-loving people. In order to achieve peace, we have to step up the attack on the Middle East British colonies that support the British royal family in Iceland, so that the war will end more quickly." Finally, the German ambassador made a long speech After more than half an hour, summed up the German people's hardship to expand the war.
You invaded Poland, invaded the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, invaded Denmark, Norway, invaded France, invaded the United Kingdom ... You have squandered the benefits and almost eliminated the threats. Now that you do n’t want to play, want peace? When did you Germans become so shameless? what?
After President Roosevelt scolded resentfully in his heart, he finally had the opportunity to speak: "But if you provoke war in the Middle East, it will affect the US oil extraction, which may affect the friendly relations between Germany and the United States. ! Germany has already made enemies on all sides. I believe Yuan Yuansheng would not want to see the United States become an enemy of Germany? "
"Of course! Mr. President!" The German ambassador nodded in agreement with Roosevelt: "The German government never thought of being an enemy of the United States. Both of our countries are rich and powerful countries. The war between us is enough to collapse the world system. , This is obviously a very unwise decision. "
"So, Mr. Ambassador, we in the United States attach great importance to the stability of the Middle East, which is also the common interest between Germany and the United States." Roosevelt said after thinking about it, "If I can persuade some local Arabs to sell oil Partly to Germany, and to ensure that the oil can be shipped to Germany, can the situation in the Middle East maintain the status quo? "
The German ambassador appeared to be in a dilemma. He apparently did not receive any domestic action instructions after the US compromise. However, he showed great negotiating skills. He played a "drag" card and said to Roosevelt: "I have to ask the country before I can answer the President of the United States. I hope you can understand my hardship."
Roosevelt nodded. This compromise in the United States was an interim decision of Congress. His plan to use the United Kingdom to restrict Germany has collapsed. There have been many discordant voices in Congress. These voices are being strengthened. Challenge the strength of Roosevelt and the Jewish alliance.
This includes the Nazi Party of the United States, some isolationists, and even many parliamentarians from hostile parties. They view Germany-US relations from another angle, and feel that even if a strong Germany emerges in the future, it is not a cause for concern. They are confident in the economic advantages of the United States and feel that it is very unwise to be involved in an unknown war at this time. Unfortunately, this argument has the support of the majority of the people, who believe that the United States should not be involved in the war in Europe again.
In fact, not all U.S. investments have paid off. The Roosevelt regime ’s assistance to British tanks, aircraft, and even warships has exchanged for many overseas military bases that originally belonged to the United Kingdom. These bases will allow the United States to maintain an international advantage over the future status.
However, the British national power seems to have been squeezed out recently. The British government can no longer effectively exercise its absolute control over the colony. Some methods that rely on selling colonial privileges in exchange for American assistance have not been very useful in the past two months. . But on the other hand, the US
Volunteer Army
operation in North Africa is like a bottomless hole. Every month it consumes oil extracted from the Middle East, and requires domestic military factories to produce tanks and aircraft to supplement it. Taking the Battle of Tobruk as an example, Barton blew out 400 tanks at a stretch, all of which had to be replenished from the United States to the North African battlefield.
In this way, there are different voices in the United States: If Germany guarantees US oil interests in the Middle East, then why should it help the British and the Germans to fight for life in North Africa? Isn't Germany and the United States coexisting peacefully better than suppressing Germany's gains?
Roosevelt was completely dragged down by this short-sighted argument. This approach of looking at the immediate benefits is simply self-deception. Germany is different from the United States. It is a continental country. Once the tragic location has opened up, there will be many benefits-this country is naturally more closely connected with Asia, Africa, and Europe than the United States.
No need for Germany to do anything deliberately, the steel axis will isolate the United States from the mainstream international environment. By the time people do n’t play with the United States, what can the United States do? Fighting the whole of Asia, Africa and Europe with the strength of North and South America? At that time, it was really caught in an evenly matched war.
It is exactly right to fight against Germany now, but the parody of the parliament is thinking about how to draw a line with the British royal family in Iceland and establish a stable cooperative relationship with a strong Germany.
Although many people of insight still support Roosevelt, American arms and equipment are still being shipped to North Africa, but Roosevelt feels resistance and feels that he is powerless. In this way, as long as Germany establishes a strategic advantage in North Africa and takes the Mediterranean and Balkan incomes, the United States will be kicked out of the international situation in advance, and it will be the real tragedy at that time.
Of course, the investment in the Soviet Union obviously did not get the return it deserved. Although the Soviet Union shipped a large amount of raw materials to Alaska in the United States through trade, many military aids were not transported to the front, and the Soviet Union did not play a strategic role in containing the Germans on the frontal battlefield.
In other words, the current hidden alliance between the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union, only the United States has always assumed the role of consumption. This is obviously not the situation that Roosevelt hopes to see. He hopes to be able to consume German strategic resources on various battlefields, instead of using the US's own strategic resources to fill the two bottomless pits of the Soviet Union and Britain.
Now that Germany has extended the claws of war to the US-led Middle East, this act that would absolutely make American capitalists violently thrive was endured by American capitalists. They even decided to use a part of the compromise in exchange for the German concession. This is obviously to express their dissatisfaction with the US ’s long-term support strategy for supporting allies-you are so polite to support the British Soviet Union with no return, we will be welcome. Now!
"Send a telegram to the British royal family. We are going to take a defensive posture in North Africa." Roosevelt thought of this and said helplessly to the secretary behind him: "Aid to the Soviet Union was also suspended, telling Stalin that he is now We ca n’t afford to play a game. "
"Strengthen the sense of existence of the United States in the Middle East. If you can't do it, you can transfer Button to it!" He then added: "We must act on the basis of the fundamental interests of the United States ... Middle East oil production must be guaranteed! We will A division was transported to the Middle East to strengthen the guard there! You must be careful of the Turks. "
This is Roosevelt's thoughtful countermeasures. He decided to shrink the US investment in North Africa and the Soviet Union, and to strengthen the US power in the Middle East. It can be considered as a disguise to strengthen the US's role in the Middle East oil production area without expanding the US military expenditures. Control strength and defensive ability.
At this time, he no longer considered when it would be most beneficial for the United States to participate in the war. He is now working hard to maintain the current international situation to ensure that the United States will not be driven out of the entire world war by Germany's quick battle. He is a little bit reluctant to leave now, just waiting with his teeth clenched, waiting for a huge change in the international situation.
The two sides are still waiting for an opportunity. If Germany takes the lead in the Middle East and wins in North Africa, then the United States is out and Germany directly wins the World War; of course, if the United States gets an opportunity to participate in the war ahead of time, Roosevelt will win, the American roll Entering the war, the world situation will become more confusing.
Roosevelt was betting that he didn't think it was a long-term plan for the United States to stay out of the matter. He felt that it would be beneficial for the United States to get involved in the world war. This is the common thought of him and many people behind him. They firmly believe that the United States will become the future world leader, not the lonely ghost who is excluded from the world circle.
"Now, it depends on what our opponents are thinking!" Roosevelt sighed. "Is it going to defeat the United States to climb to the top of the real world in one breath, or to steadily clean up the situation, and even have a chance to join the war?" None of us. "
