Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 429

Suddenly, McDavis asked in a rage: "There are rumors that the British Empire is suppressing newly emerging countries such as the Kingdom of the Netherlands. I don't know if you are the head of the British Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. How can you say that, Your Excellency Russell?"

Mike. Davis' question was so sharp that the reporters on the scene were very "thankful" because it was exactly what they wanted to ask. But they will ask later, but the effect is naturally not as good as that of the Dutch ambassador on one side.

Therefore, Mike Davis really captured the hearts of the reporters when he participated in this press conference today.

Russell's expression changed at first, but he recovered quickly, and he said: "The British Empire does not seek a diplomatic conflict with the Netherlands or a war-style conflict with the Netherlands, and of course it does not want to have a conflict with the Netherlands. We do not seek to prevent the Netherlands from playing a role as a great power, nor do we seek to prevent the Netherlands from developing its economy and promoting the development of its relations with neighboring countries.”

When Russell said this, he smiled: "Otherwise, when the Kingdom of the Netherlands began to reform as early as 1857, the United Kingdom could have prevented the development of the Dutch economy.

Otherwise, depending on how the Netherlands has formed alliances with neighboring countries again and again in the past few years, the United Kingdom can actually exchange interests, or it can make the Netherlands fall into the passiveness of its neighboring countries.

Otherwise, the Netherlands would not have had such a good environment to develop a per capita income that surpassed that of the British Empire.

Even more so, our great Her Majesty Queen Victoria would not have given up Australia in the Far East to the Netherlands, so that the Netherlands would have acquired a valuable development base in the Far East. Well, according to what the Netherlands said, it is the first place in the Netherlands. Two lives, and a life with incomparable vitality.

It was the UK that gave the Netherlands such a good environment, and it was the UK that gave the Netherlands another precious life. Therefore, in the face of these iron-clad evidences, who would dare to say that the British Empire wanted to stop the development of the Netherlands, prevent the rise of the Netherlands, and interrupted? The Netherlands' approach to promotion to a great power”

As the British Foreign Secretary Russell said otherwise, each of them surprised everyone present.

Even Mike. Davis also changed his face.

Davis had to admit that he underestimated the heroes of the world. Although Russell in front of him has always been overwhelmed by his peers such as Metternich and Palmerston in Europe and the world, both of them were passed away by him.

At present, in Europe, the newly emerging Prussian Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Bismarck can compete with him. Of course, this is a battle of reputation in the diplomatic confrontation between major powers. In fact, Davis thinks that he is the foreign minister of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Heisbet. Feng and Prime Minister Tolbeck were no worse than the other two, and William IV ran them both unconditionally, although it was because of his own Dutch background. ． ． ． ． ．

British Foreign Secretary Russell and the Kingdom of the Netherlands Ambassador to the British Empire Mike. Davis' "contest" in London first sparked a flurry in Europe. The "gladiator fight" between the two of them over the diplomatic interests and images of the two countries had a bit of a duel flavor.

This has attracted interest from all over Europe. This diplomatic conference was held in the British Foreign Office and co-hosted by the Netherlands. As the participating global newspaper reporters sent telegrams back to their respective countries, the details of the conference were immediately replaced by newspapers. The way of reporting is displayed in front of the global newspaper citizens.

Everyone was very excited.

This British-Dutch foreign policy conference is the first time in the world that the foreign ministries of the two countries have held this type of event publicly, and it has received far more attention than before.

Because of this, both the UK and the Netherlands have benefited a lot from this event. The two countries each expounded their own foreign policies, allowing the world to see the whole picture.

Although the high-level officials of other countries have serious doubts about these "passive" issues, it may be just a public-relations activity between the two countries, but it does not hinder the "appreciation" of others except them.

After all, just before this event, the Netherlands had just bypassed Sri Lanka and the Chagos Islands in the UK in the Far East. This provocation, will the Netherlands and the UK be singing double reeds?

What's more, Britain and the Netherlands are both quarreling over the issue of the Commonwealth of Millikin because of the Rothschild family? The competition between the two countries over the influence of the United States is heating up. How can they cooperate secretly? Isn't this bullshit?

In short, conspiracy-conspiracy theories and anti-conspiracy-conspiracy theories have also been hotly debated because of this incident.

It is in this situation that James. Rothschild sent his son to London to meet his nephew Lionel. Rothschild.

"Lionel, you know, my father, your uncle is very concerned about the situation in London, so he sent me to find out, you know, the whole of Europe is now discussing the complex relationship between England and the Netherlands, at this time we Ross The Childe family has been fighting against the Netherlands again in North America, and my father is worried that our Rothschild family has been trapped by others.”

Emond. Rothschild's face showed concern, the financial emperor of the French Empire James. Rothschild's financial prince is far less calm than Paris, and his worries show his inner chaos.

I have to say that this meeting hosted by the British Foreign Office and the Dutch Foreign Office was confusing.

These make the Rothschild family a little uneasy. Therefore, as the only surviving member of the second generation of the Rothschild family, James. Rothschild sent his son Edmond to London to understand the situation, and also showed his willingness to help his nephew~www.mtlnovel.com~ trying to make the upper class in London understand the unity of the Rothschild family.

Lionel. Rothschild frowned and said, "No. 10 Downing Street should be more than opposed to the Rothschild family's development in North America, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs doesn't know."

Emond. When Rothschild heard the words, his heart moved, "Lionel, you mean that the Whig party may have some kind of tacit understanding with the Netherlands"

"It should be said that the channel left by Viscount Palmerston, the former prime minister, gave the Netherlands a strong relationship with the Whig Party." Lionel said somewhat meaningfully: "The intention of Buckingham Palace is also unclear."

Emond. Rothschild stared at the boss, and after a long time, "That is to say, the royal family seems to be reluctant to offend Amsterdam too much, the Whigs do not approve of excessive persecution of the Netherlands, and the Tories are on our side."

"Yes, Edmond, just go back and tell Uncle James that."

When the British and French public opinion questioned the British and Dutch diplomatic activities, a spoiler appeared.

It turned out that in the Indian Ocean, the navy of the Kingdom of Prussia, which owns the Somali colony, went south, and after arriving at Madagascar, it took a parade around the island before calmly passing through the Strait of Magellan to reach the southern Prussian colony of Southwest Africa in the Atlantic Ocean.

When this news came, the world's attention was shifted from the English Channel to between Berlin and Amsterdam.
