Chapter 1,479 Financial Tsunami
In the current era of global economic integration, no country's problems can be viewed in isolation.
The war between New America and the United States, detonated by twelve Tridents, ignited not only the war between two countries, but also the countries involved in the aftermath of this war, covering almost every inch of the world. Politics, economy, military, and even culture, everything is involved in the vortex of conflict.
The first to collapse was the U.S. dollar, with the Federal Reserve vaults as the trigger.
Although I don’t know what Starring Trading plans to do with the gold, just looking at the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier stranded on the streets of Wall Street is enough to make every investor holding US dollars despair about the future of the US dollar.
A financial tsunami centered on the US dollar has spread from the east coast of North America to the world. The value of the evaporation of foreign exchange reserves of various countries cannot be calculated at all, because the US dollar, which is usually used to measure value, is itself at the center of the storm...
Everyone is trying every possible means to reduce their holdings of U.S. dollars and U.S. Treasury bonds. However, once panic spreads in the market, it seems that it has become a luxury to be alone.
In this financial tsunami, the only beneficiary seems to be Xinguo.
After the twelve tridents were intercepted by the Holy Shield system, the price of the Singapore dollar in the foreign exchange market rose accordingly. In order to curb the continuously rising exchange rate, the new Federal Reserve had to modify the quantitative easing plan for this year and next. It painfully and happily ran the money printing machine to the limit and injected a large amount of currency into the market to stabilize the exchange rate by opening the floodgates and releasing water.
However, even so, it is difficult to curb the strength of the Singapore dollar.
It is generally analyzed by the outside world that if the new country demands war reparations from the United States, it is very likely that it will ask the United States for gold from the Federal Reserve to pay. As a result, it seems that the Singapore dollar has become the only "safe haven" in this financial crisis.
In order to quell the flames of war and save the deteriorating economic situation, many people have made some efforts. Some are trying to mediate through diplomatic channels, and of course there are also those who are trying to take the military route and prepare for armed intervention.
Some were looking sad, some were just showing off, or some were planning to get a share of the action.
It is worth mentioning that as the two major members of the Earth Defense Alliance, both China and Russia have adopted a wait-and-see attitude at the moment.
The decline of the U.S. dollar may bring unbearable pain to China's economy, which relies on exports. However, from a long-term perspective, the decline of a hegemon will do more good than harm to China. This is true whether we weigh it from the perspective of national unity or geopolitics.
The same goes for Russia.
The decline of NATO will relieve military pressure on Russia's borders, and more funds will be spent on economic construction instead of arm-wrestling with NATO along the long border.
But it would be too risky to send troops directly. After all, there is no Holy Shield system in Moscow.
Although the Earth Defense Alliance has relevant provisions on collective defense, before Star Circle Trade proactively calls on allies to join the war, they are happy to use peaceful means to support allies who already have the upper hand. For example, increasing troops to the border, conducting military exercises including beach landings and large-scale airborne landings in offshore waters, etc.
On the other side, NATO was also eerily silent.
Just twenty-four hours after Star Ring Trade parachuted into Washington, the British Prime Minister convened an emergency parliament. A proposal involving foreign war was brought to the Palace of Westminster for discussion. Although the faces of representatives of all parties at the conference table were full of indignation. , but in the final voting session, this radical proposal failed to pass.
The focus of debate among MPs is Article 5.
That is, when one country encounters aggression, the remaining member states will work together to defend it.
However, the current situation is that this war does not seem to be the first to start this war. The United States, which misassessed the strength of the Star Ring Trade, is on the aggressor side, while Star Ring Trade, which has entered North America, is on the defensive side...
If the Colombian War were separated from the New-American War,
It can indeed be considered that this war was caused by the United States' preemptive nuclear strike with the Trident nuclear missile launched first. The USS Ford aircraft carrier battle group was captured during the Colombian War and cannot be regarded as the trigger of the New-US War...
In fact, to put it bluntly, these are all excuses.
If it really wanted to fight, NATO would have done something like bypassing the United Nations and directly launching a military strike.
There are only two reasons why the British Parliament is really concerned.
One is the Expedition's main gun hanging in a synchronous orbit. After seeing the shield that even nuclear weapons cannot shake, and the irresistible "spear", the M.A.D mechanism has completely declared bankruptcy. If one party's nuclear weapons cannot ensure the complete destruction of the other party after a strategic strike, what is the meaning of so-called deterrence?
Even if the British want to help, they have to consider the possible consequences of sending troops.
And another is that the main force of the NATO coalition was restrained in the quagmire of Colombia and unable to move, including the British army. If Britain wanted to reinforce the United States, it would have to launch the largest war mobilization since World War II. However, this is just a joke when its own problems are not solved.
Let's take a look at what the British have done over the years.
The 108,000-strong British Army, commanded by 100,000 Ministry of Defense civil servants, had to shut down a tank production line in order to purchase a large number of high-end massage chairs and the astronomical price of ten pounds per roll of toilet paper for the Ministry of Defense offices. In order to save money, the Labor Party killed its own missile production line and planned to equip India with the "Fire" that would destroy civilization by disappearing. Fortunately, it aroused protests from the military, and after many twists and turns, it was not passed.
To a certain extent, the situation of "Second Senior Brother" has reflected the dilemma faced by the entire NATO. The Austrian Air Force sold all its trainer aircraft and only used simulators to train pilots. In the end, the airlines even refused to recognize these people's pilot licenses. The Polish Marine Corps had no landing craft and had to rent the museum's sailing ship for the exercises. The Greek government once expressed its willingness to donate a trireme as a friendly gift, but it required the Poles to row from the Aegean Sea to the Baltic Sea themselves, so the Poles rejected it...
If he hadn't done so many stupid things, Trump would not have included "demanding unpaid military expenses from NATO member states" in his campaign platform.
As for Turkey, it may still have some combat effectiveness. After all, there are more people and strength, and no matter how low the training level is, there is still a standing army there. But now Turkey itself has been trapped in a two-front war, and it is difficult to escape from Colombia and Syria.
Not only that, but Russia, which is increasing its troops to the border, is watching with eager eyes.
Well, although there are many problems, there is no doubt about NATO's ability to fight the war.
However……
When the eldest brother couldn't protect himself, what could they do?
Most NATO member states are already locked in a war that is difficult for them.
