The difference between the United Nations Charter in this time and space and another time and space is not as big as imagined. Most of the main United Nations Charter are slogans, which are large and vague, so they are easy to formulate, and the similarity rate with another time and space is inexplicably high; however, there is also a part of the United Nations Charter related to the operating procedures of the United Nations, and this part is all People are racking their brains to do something to make money for their country. The United Nations in this time and space, like another time and space, has a "General Assembly" that is usually responsible for passing various resolutions that are actually useless, and then there is also a "Security Council" that actually controls the real power of the United Nations. The Council Oh no, there are five major seats in the Council, and they are five permanent members. Because of the different results of World War II, Russia¡¯s seat in this time and space was replaced by Germany and became China, the United States, Britain, France, and Germany. The permanent members have the same veto power as in another time and space. After the promulgation of the United Nations Charter, the first formal United Nations General Assembly was held to discuss the establishment of the United Nations. However, the focus of the first Security Council meeting was different from that of the UN General Assembly. The Security Council's eyes were fixed on the Middle East, the land of future black gold. "I am opposed to the Chinese establishing a state in the Persian Gulf," Charlotte stated impassionedly. "The existence of the Chinese in the Middle East has no legal basis. The Arabs are the legal rulers of this land." "According to your logic, I have to oppose the British "Any country established by the Gru-Saxons in North America," Lin Youde argued, "Legal speaking, North America belongs to the Indians. If North America is returned to the Indians, we will be happy to return the Persian Gulf to the Arabs." The scene at this time was quite magical. Lin Youde was not the official representative of Germany, and Charlotte was not the head of the American delegation. Both of them attended the meeting as entourages, but no one questioned their participation in the debate at the conference. The right to speak. Of course, debates like this don't actually mean much. They are all superficial. In fact, the competition is going on secretly. The participating council members are in frequent contact with big countries like Germany and Germany. The main factor that determines who they support at the conference is It's these exchanges of interests behind the scenes. Without interests, no matter how invincible you are in the debate, you will not win in the end. Therefore, Lin Youde is now very comfortable dealing with Charlotte's verbal attacks, enjoying the pleasure of the debate very relaxedly, without worrying about the subsequent voting - what he can do has been done long ago, and now he is only on the road to the inevitable result. It¡¯s just time to see the scenery. Finally, the Security Council set a timetable for the peace process in the Middle East. According to the timetable, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Jordan and other countries will be established successively before 1955. At this time, the Mesopotamia and the West Bank of the Persian Gulf controlled by the Chinese were established. The power of a quasi-state government - this region is not recognized internationally as a complete country, and diplomatic relations at the ambassadorial level cannot be established with it. It can only set up a consulate in Baghdad. Other than that, this quasi-state organization is nothing like a normal country. different. In addition, this "flaw" has no impact on the newly established Chinese quasi-state. After all, no one stipulates how much power the consul of the consulate has. Even if the consul is given ambassadorial power, no one will say anything, and the consulate's The area does not necessarily have to be smaller than the embassy. To put it bluntly, the so-called inability to establish ambassadorial-level diplomatic relations is actually to give face to the Western powers. In this way, no one can say that the Western powers can't even do anything about the irregular armed forces in the Persian Gulf region and can only acquiesce in the founding of the country-now this is terrible Without Jianguo, you can¡¯t even have an embassy, ??right? How can it be called Jianguo, right? In exchange for allowing the Chinese to establish a nation, Lin Youde promised that 20% of the oil resources in the new Chinese nation could be explored and exploited by Western oil companies. As France was an ally of Germany during World War II, Lin Youde fulfilled the benefits agreed with Charlie and gave the French more extensive oil exploration rights. Lin Youde certainly hopes that oil will bring him more direct profits, the better, but the most fundamental reason why he wants oil is to make the German mark the settlement currency in world trade. To make your own currency the dominant trading certificate in the market, there is a very simple but very effective way: let some kind of goods that everyone in the entire market has a hard need to trade with your own currency. Another Time and Space One of the important reasons why the United States was able to establish the Bretton Woods System was that the United States was the world's largest oil producer at that time, and more than half of its oil transactions were settled in U.S. dollars. Every modern country needs oil, which makes these modern industrial countries hold U.S. dollars in their hands to meet the needs of oil transactions. The fact that every country has U.S. dollars in their hands makes the U.S. dollar a very useful international currency. Settlement currency, and businessmen are pursuing high efficiency. The U.S. dollar shows two ways in international trade.It is easy to use and was immediately recognized by businessmen. There was a very diligent student in the United States in another time and space. It followed the teacher almost step by step, trying hard to learn every trick from the teacher. After his wings grew stronger, the student also took up the idea of ??oil like his teacher. They began to promote the use of their own currency to settle oil transactions and persuaded oil-producing countries one by one to accept this. The United States was very panicked after seeing this, so it stepped up the containment of its own student. This shows how important oil is in the international financial field. However, oil is just one of many commodities that can determine what currency is used for international trade settlements. There are many commodities that can also have the same function. For example, in the time and space before Lin Youde traveled, rare earths were needed to produce electronic equipment, and most of the world's proven rare earth mineral deposits are in China, so as long as rare earths are restricted, they can only be traded in RMB. , that would force many countries to keep the RMB - the reason why the government did not do this is because after a round of research, it was found that most of the electronic products in the world are produced in China. Once the export of rare earths is blocked, it may In turn, it affects China's domestic economic operation. Another example is daily necessities. Before Lin Youde traveled through time and space, Western countries in that time and space no longer had the production capacity to produce such daily necessities due to labor costs and other issues, so supermarkets were all made in China. If only RMB can be used to settle daily products, it will indeed allow RMB to quickly occupy a place in the international settlement market. The reason for not doing this is the same as the reason for not blocking rare earths - doing so may lead to turmoil in the domestic daily necessities manufacturing industry. So the government of that time and space thought again and again, and felt that we should use other methods to make the RMB an international settlement currency, so the delegation went out, country by country, to discuss the RMB settlement of oil; in addition, it was all along the way. , radiate and penetrate its own economic power into surrounding countries. Once China's economic power takes a dominant position in a certain country, that country will naturally be included in the ranks of RMB settlement, whether it is willing or not, it will It can only be accepted passively. Examples like this already exist in Asian countries. Anyone who has traveled to Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia and Brunei knows that the locals accept RMB and your red ticket can pass through the local area without any obstruction, so you don¡¯t even need to exchange the local currency. This happens because China¡¯s economic power is too deeply rooted in the local area. Many of the daily necessities purchased by local people come from China. When tourists¡¯ RMB is given to them, they can directly use it to buy Chinese goods. No need to After the exchange procedure, there is no exchange tax and handling fee levied by the state. The same is true in many African countries. The locals wear clothes made in China, use electricity provided by power stations built by the Chinese, hold mobile phones made in China, and drive Toyota pickup trucks made in China. In such a country, the RMB has a very high value. Strong purchasing power, on the contrary, the currency issued by the local government is rarely used by the people - African black uncles are not stupid, they know that the military governments established by force will fall out of nowhere, and once they fall, they will leave. The currency they issued became useless paper. But if you have RMB, you can buy what you need from the Chinese at any time. In short, although Lin Youde wants to directly use oil to make money, what he values ????more is the support of oil for the mark he issued. As long as Western oil companies can accept paper marks as the currency for oil trade settlement, Lin Youde doesn't mind giving them some oil fields. Anyway, Lin Youde now has a lot of oil fields in his hands, and he is a real oil tycoon. After the Security Council determined the timetable for the peace process in the Middle East, this Security Council resolution was submitted to the United Nations General Assembly for review¡ªbut in reality it was just a formality. In an era when such a war had just ended, no one dared to sit down with the five major powers. Challenge. The United Nations seems to be an international organization that advocates negotiation to solve problems, but in fact, the establishment of the United Nations has not changed the face of the international community that power equals truth. No matter in which time and space, the seats of the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council were fought out with mountains of blood and corpses in the war. Unless there is another war, no permanent member of the United Nations Security Council will agree to other countries becoming new permanent members. So in another time and space, India, Germany, Japan, etc. are just doing white work. Of course, after the establishment of the United Nations, direct conflicts between major powers have been greatly reduced, but this is actually not the credit of the United Nations, but the credit of the atomic bomb. So in the final analysis, nuclear weapons make the greatest contribution to world peace. The ineffectiveness of the United Nations is also reflected in its ability to respond to regional conflicts. In another time and space, since the establishment of the United Nations, it has almost no achievements in successfully mediating wars. Instead, it has been?Used several times as an excuse for aggression. Needless to say, the Korean War, and in the Middle East, the United Nations has been trying to resolve the conflicts between Israelis and Arabs. However, until the 21st century, Israel still relied on force to compete with its Arab neighbors, and wars continued throughout the Middle East. On the eve of Lin Youde¡¯s journey, the troublesome ISIS emerged in the Middle East. It seemed that there would be no peace for more than ten years. Just like what Luo Dayou sang in the famous song: Looking up for the wings in the sky, migratory birds appear with their traces, bringing news that famine and ruthless war still exist in the distance So Lin Youde, before crossing, I have always believed that among all the organs of the United Nations, the one that is probably the least effective is the Security Council. If you think about it carefully, this is natural. You see, the five permanent members of the Security Council have almost a monopoly on the global arms trade. They will not bother to end the war. Who will buy weapons if there is no war? For example, a seemingly innocent and harmless country that talks about the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and "Peaceful Rise" all day long exports Type 56 submachine guns, which are sold at a higher price than the famous ones due to their simple structure, reliable performance and low cost. The AK47 is even better - in fact, many of the AK47s in Uncle Hei's hands are actually five or six punches. Countless poor people have died under the muzzle of the Type 56 submachine gun. He can be called the most dedicated god of death in human history. In addition to the Five-Liu Chong, this country also produces and exports other weapons whose main characteristics are reliability, durability and low cost. For example, the 107mm rocket can be launched by just setting it up on a steel frame and manually connecting the power to the ignition. It almost never malfunctions, and its explosive power is insane. It is deeply loved by African warlords. Using a pickup truck to launch this thing doesn't even require an extra power supply, just use the pickup truck's battery Of course, these things are low-value-added products because of their low technical content, so the seemingly innocent Merchant of Death earns Its money is less than that of the other four permanent members of the Security Council, but its weapons cause far more deaths than those of high-tech and high-value-added weapons. Therefore, the Security Council is actually the "Death Merchant Club". It is really difficult to expect it to maintain world peace and so on It is really difficult for it. In fact, many peacekeeping operations decided by the Security Council have political overtones. On the surface, they are called peacekeeping operations, but in fact they are armed intervention by major powers in other countries. Not only that, the Security Council has also done some very unscrupulous things. In another time and space, there was an independent game called "This War of Mine". The creator personally struggled to survive in a war-torn city, and finally escaped. And as long as you look at the war that was used as a prototype by the producer, you will find that the reason why the residents in the city had to struggle to survive in the war-torn city was because the United Nations had blocked the surrounding areas of the city, preventing anyone from In and out. The Security Council adopted the safest approach for itself, limiting the war to a smaller scope and not caring about the lives of civilians blocked in the war zone. Although the United Nations provided humanitarian relief supplies, it did not send anyone to supervise the distribution of relief supplies. All the supplies fell into the hands of armed warlords. Lin Youde was sitting in the conference hall of the Security Council, looking at the representatives of the permanent members. He knew very well that the Security Council in this time and space was probably the same as in another time and space. If he did not actively incite war, he would be in trouble. The great powers sit around the table, each with his or her own agenda. As for world peace and the like, those are just slogans on everyone¡¯s lips. Just shout them out. However, Lin Youde does not intend to become a true messenger of peace. Lin Youde may still have some idealism before time travel, but now Lin Youde has long abandoned it. After the Security Council discussed the timetable for the Middle East peace process, the second topic discussed was the establishment of a United Nations peacekeeping force. But on the two issues of the composition and command authority of the peacekeeping force, everyone has reached a stalemate. Of course the United States hopes to have the command of the United Nations, but the German representative (not Lin Youde) insists that the German commander with the most glorious results in the war is the best candidate to serve as the commander of the United Nations peacekeeping force. While the United States and Germany were at war with each other, Britain and France also euphemistically expressed their desire to participate. Only Xinming¡¯s representative acted like a peacemaker, and everything he said was ambiguous. Lin Youde watched these people talking nonsense for more than an hour. At first, he still had the desire to debate a few words, but in the end, the sore buttocks caused by long-term sitting posture made Lin Youde lose interest. He decided to adjourn the meeting. Exit temporarily. As soon as Lin Youde left the stage, Xia Li immediately followed. "You don't want to continue listening?" Lin Youde asked curiously. "I am a Frenchman, sitting in the German delegation and feeling"It's so strange," Charlie shrugged. "Even if it is to remind the French delegation of the friendly relations between France and Germany, this approach is a bit fussy. " "I suspect that my move to include you in the delegation had the opposite effect. Lin Youde shrugged, "The goddess in the French delegation glares at you whenever she has free time. She seems to be very wary of you." " "Of course, me staying with you should have weakened my influence in France, but I don't know why the situation is just the opposite. As long as the French are dissatisfied with the current government, I will be dragged out" Charlie As he spoke, he sighed, then turned to look at Lin Youde, "But now I'm a little too happy to be in Potsdam. " "Is this true? "Lin Youde raised his eyebrows and glanced at the French girl who used a Chinese idiom. "Seriously. "The Frenchman nodded. "I never thought that what I have is so attractive" Charlie smiled and patted Lin Youde on the back: "What nonsense are you talking about! Really, this is an international conference after all, so pay attention to the impact and avoid talking about porn. " Lin Youde also laughed. Xia Li continued: "The reason why I miss Shu is because I like the atmosphere here. You know, since I was a child, I have believed that there is only a competitive relationship between Shen Ji and Shen Ji. Even if they are allies, they will compete secretly. This is the way I have always seen Shen Ji and Shen Ji get along with each other. But in Potsdam, things were different. I could feel this when I went to Potsdam for vacation before, but maybe at that time, people still regarded me as an outsider and did not fully open their hearts to me, so this feeling was not prominent yet. "But after I took a cruise with you and came back, I felt that I had finally integrated into the Potsdam community. The mutual trust between everyone made me feel very novel, even those who quarreled with me all day long Isabella also made me feel trustworthy. "I knew you, the French, would say bad things about me while I was away." Isabella suddenly appeared next to Lin Youde and Charlie, with her hands on her hips and her arms folded. said with an eyebrow. "I didn't say, British people, if you have too much delusion of being persecuted, you will be hated by Lin." After saying that, Charlie put her arm around Lin Youde. "Hmph, you scheming bitch." Isabella said a word she had recently learned from Lin Youde, "Don't think that Lin will forget your past calculations." "No, in fact I am very generous. ," Lin Youde corrected, "You see, the fox stabbed me and sent so much information to the Yingzhou Military Department at the beginning. I didn't care about it anymore." Then Lin Youde was stared at. "How can you turn your elbows out?" Isabella frowned and complained, "Of course I know you are generous, but can't you say a few words on your woman's side?" "Question You are both my women now" "I will not admit that this guy is our companion!" Isabella pointed directly at Charlie's nose. "In fact, compared to me who was an ally from the beginning, Isabella, who was once an enemy, are you less trustworthy, right?" "I have proven my loyalty with my actions." "If you are referring to the battlefield If you are fighting for Lin, then I have done the same thing. If you mean giving birth to a princess for Lin, as far as I know, we are still on the same starting line in this regard." Isabella 1. She glared at Lin Youde with an expression that looked like she was being fed to flies. It looked like she would not give up until Lin Youde fell to his knees and begged for mercy tonight. This made Lin Youde smack his lips lightly. Charlie seemed to understand immediately what Lin Youde was thinking, and immediately said: "I suddenly want to spend a good night with you. Dear Lin, come on, come and fulfill my little wish." "Come to me tonight! Don't jump in line!" Isabella protested loudly. Lin Youde sighed: "Hey, stop talking. I want to eat English and French sandwich tonight." Isabella raised her eyes and stared at Lin Youde with her lips pouting to express her dissatisfaction, while Charlie leaned her head against Lin Youde on his shoulders, holding his arms tightly with both hands, laughing happily. Then Isabella suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Winston Churchill just found me." "What?" Lin Youde asked curiously. Churchill lost his official title as prime minister in the first year after the war, and could not even keep his status as a member of the House of Commons. Therefore, he had no choice but to reuse his status as a hereditary aristocrat and infiltrate the ranks of hereditary aristocrats and relatives of the emperor. The Lord's Lords. Of course, as a political veteran, Churchill still has a very powerful position in British politics.Influence, when he found Isabella, it was definitely not as simple as reminiscing about old times. "Churchill seems to want to use me to test your outlet," Isabella shrugged, "but I excused him by saying that you are not involved in politics now." Lin Youde participated in the delegation this time with the title of international economic consultant. In name, he is indeed a guy who is outside of politics. Because of this, he only participates in debates at Security Council meetings and has no role in speeches or speeches - the same is true at the United Nations General Assembly. "What did he want to know about me?" Lin Youde asked. Charlie answered first: "It should be the Suez Canal. My friends in the French delegation revealed to me that Churchill had a secret conversation with the head of the French delegation for several hours yesterday. The content of the secret conversation may have been about Britain and France uniting with Israel. "Recover the East Canal." Lin Youde couldn't help but smacked his lips. Sure enough, just like in another time and space, Britain was unwilling to give up its interests in the Suez Canal. Joining forces with Israel to completely control the Suez Canal is quite consistent with Churchill's style. Israel is probably also happy to eat up the half of the canal that was allocated to Egypt in the previous Lisbon Peace Agreement. If left alone, the second Middle East war in this time and space may break out in the first few years of the 1950s. Lin Youde looked at Charlie: "Based on your understanding of the French goddess who is currently in power, will the French cooperate with the British?" "Yes," Charlie said decisively, "That guy is very ambitious, and she will not let him go. This opportunity to launch a foreign war to consolidate her domestic reputation, especially now that I am close to you, will definitely worry that I will make a comeback with your support in the next election, so Churchill's proposal is very tempting to her. Big." Lin Youde couldn't help but smack his lips. "That's going to be troublesome." Lin Youde turned to Isabella, "In this case, you have a good relationship with Elena, the British goddess who came here this time, right? Go to her for tea, and by the way, find out how the various parties in the UK are reacting to the withdrawal. My opinion on the Suez Canal. Although it can be left to Fox's agents to find out, I think it would be better if you asked directly." "Understood." Isabella nodded. "Do you need to be so concerned about this action of the British?" Charlie asked puzzledly. "Even if they really start fighting, it will not affect your interests, dear. After all, the Israelis still occupy most of the Sinai Peninsula. , even if the canal is regained control by the British, they can't completely cut off your crude oil transportation route, right? " "Yes, but I still don't want Suez to fall into the hands of the great powers again. It is best for me to let Egypt and Israel co-operate. After all, Israel is strong and Egypt is weak, and control of the canal is not as balanced as it seems."
