Chapter 412: Cooperation

A two-wheeled carriage stopped outside the door. Hu Yaji and Tang Jingsong got off the carriage and walked into the Foreign Ministry building together.
"The United States of America is reckless and unreasonable. It ignores the wishes of the South American nations and forcibly interferes in South American affairs. The naked hegemonic behavior of the United States Government is a serious damage to peace in the Americas!
As a member of the Americas, the Greater Han Dynasty is willing to join hands with the British Empire and resolutely oppose the US government's interference and destruction of the current South American order. "
On behalf of the Han government, Hu Yaji solemnly stated his diplomatic position.
"The Han country is an important power in the Americas. As the defender of the civilized world order, the British Empire is very willing to establish close diplomatic ties with the Han government and work together to maintain the hard-won peace in South America and promote the peace among the nations of South America. Economic and cultural exchanges. "
The British Minister Yalman got the desired result, and the anxiety caused by the long wait suddenly disappeared.
"In the American continent, the British Empire and the Han Empire have consistent economic interests. Strengthening economic cooperation between the two countries is in line with the common will of the two peoples. Therefore, in order to promote international business exchanges between South American countries, the Imperial Government hopes that your The country can make greater efforts to lift the restrictions on the British Empire ’s capital in the economic realm of the Han country and allow imperial merchant ships to enter the inland basin of the Parana River for business activities in a more open and equal manner. "
"Business exchanges and cooperation based on the principle of equality and mutual benefit can last long. The Han Dynasty has always taken a positive attitude towards foreign capital entering the local investment. British capital entering the home is also something the government is happy to see. In terms of cooperation, the British Empire did not accord due treatment and status to the Great Han. "
Hu Yaji softly refuted the other side and continued: "After the Argentine dispute, in order to take care of the interests of the British Empire, our government has properly protected your country's assets in Argentina, Uruguay and other regions, and it has planned the railway restructuring. We have given full consideration to the actual situation of your country ’s capital, abandoned the plan of full nationalization, and opted instead for a state-owned or private mixed-stock system, leaving 49% of the capital to include your businessmen. The government retains only 51% of its private capital, as well as the right to operate and maintain.
However, in the face of our goodwill, your government has not responded positively. With regard to the islands of Mala, Paraguay, ship purchases, overseas student dispatch, and industrial technology introduction, your government has not considered our government and The feelings of the civilian people not only set up obstacles in the fields of overseas student dispatch, industrial technology introduction, and ship purchase, but also forcibly rejected our reasonable requirements in terms of the sovereignty of the island of Ma and the changes in the situation in Paraguay.
If your government ca n’t face up to our government ’s legitimate rights and interests requirements, it ’s difficult to implement the so-called expansion of economic cooperation between the two countries in a closer way to deal with the expansion of the United States in South America. "
"In order to show sincerity to strengthen and deepen cooperation between the two sides, the imperial government is willing to respect the legitimate interests of Han in the Kingdom of Paraguay, and is also willing to make substantive concessions in the fields of foreign students and the introduction of industrial technology. , The empire has absolutely legal and reasonable basis to determine that Ma Island belongs to the British Empire.
As early as 1592, the British navigator John Davis on Desire found the Malvinas Islands, the first person to ascend the Malvinas Islands.
In 1765, the empire established the first human settlement in the Malvinas Islands. Although destroyed by the Spaniards in 1770, it was restored in 1771 and restored to its outpost on West Falkland Island.
The Empire withdrew from Malvinas for economic reasons in 1774, but did not abandon its claim to archipelago sovereignty.
In early 1833, the empire expelled Argentine immigrants who illegally occupied the island of Mala and resumed local management.
In 1841, the Empire sent several civilian officials from the mainland to the island to establish a management agency.
Now, the empire has exercised sovereignty over the Malvinas for nearly three hundred years, and more than 2,000 settlers on the island are also all Empire nationals.
Your government has no legal basis to claim the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands to the empire based on the case during the illegal occupation of the Malvinas Islands in Argentina! "
British Ambassador Armman sketched out the British sovereignty basis for possession of the Malvinas Islands without giving in.
"The Malvinas Islands have been ruled by your country, France, Spain, and Argentina. Due to historical reasons, the issue of sovereignty is complicated. Our government is willing to respect your country's interests, shelve the dispute over the sovereignty of Maldives, and acknowledge that your country actually rules Malvinas. The facts of the archipelago, however, as for the issues of economic cooperation and technology introduction and exchange between the two sides, they need to be discussed in detail before they can be determined. "
Instead of entanglement with the British envoy on the issue of sovereignty over the Malvinas Islands, Huyaki refocused the conversation on the issue of economic cooperation between the two countries.
"Of course, closer economic cooperation and exchanges between Britain and China involve a wide range of issues, and it is impossible to reach a result that both countries are equally satisfied in a short period of time."
British Minister Yalman responded: "Out of respect for your country, the British Empire will make concessions to take care of your country's interests. At the same time, the Empire also hopes that your country will forget the misunderstandings that have occurred in the past and make decisions that are beneficial to both parties. . "
"For friends, the Han Dynasty has always been generous and welcome, please rest assured."
Hu Yaji smiled and shook hands with Yarman, and responded positively. …………
In order to establish a roadblock for Americans and protect the interests of British capital in South America, the British relaxed their restrictions on South Korea and made concessions in areas that were not related to their core interests.
On January 17, 1889, the English and Chinese countries signed an agreement to jointly contain the United States.
The main content of the agreement is:
In terms of ship purchase, overseas student dispatch, and industrial technology introduction, the United Kingdom lifted restrictions on the Han country and granted Han the same authority and status as the East Rim (Early before the Sino-Japanese War, Britain began to support the East Rim.)
2. Britain recognizes the rights and interests of the Han country in the Kingdom of Paraguay and allows the Han government to take necessary protective measures at a time when its interests are damaged.
Three shelved the dispute over the sovereignty of the Malvinas Islands, and Han acknowledged the reality of British control of the islands.
The four Han nations pledged to increase cooperation with the United Kingdom in the fields of railways, finance, agriculture, animal husbandry, chemicals, electrical and other fields, allowing the United Kingdom to set up four foreign banks in the country. (The four British banks, like the local private banks, accepted the Empire Central bank supervision, control.)
The Fifth Han Dynasty promised to strengthen the security management of the Parana and Paraguay rivers ~ EbookFREE.me ~ to expand the authority of British merchant ships to freely navigate in the two rivers. …………
After the agreement was signed, the following day, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Korea issued a statement directly stating the intention of the US government to hold an international conference in the Americas, exposing the United States' conspiracy means of economic exploitation of South American countries through capital transfers! Call on South American nations to recognize the true face of the United States and refuse to hold the American International Conference in Washington.
Reacting with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, the British Government also issued a clear statement on January 20, expressing its opposition to US involvement in South American affairs.
Affected by British attitudes,
Chile and the Republic of Brazil were the first to withdraw from the International Conference on the Americas. A few days later, Peru, Eldogua, and other countries also expressed a polite rejection.
Various countries have refused to attend the meeting. Only the small countries in Central America and the two South American countries of Venezuela and Colombia have been frustrated. The first application for an international conference in the Americas was eventually rejected because of the insufficient number of participating countries. The US government announced the cancellation.
