The Rise of Great Powers: Starting From Military Industry

Chapter 1300 South American Alliance

George Wharton held talks with British Prime Minister Blair.

George Wharton said at the joint press conference held after the talks that Blair was a good friend of his and a strategic thinker with clear ideas.

George Wharton said that he and Blair discussed issues such as Iraq, Persia, Afghanistan, and Middle East peace, and that the two had "common positions" on many issues.

In his speech, Blair emphasized the importance of the British-American alliance. He said that the United Kingdom will continue to be a firm and loyal ally of the United States on issues such as counter-terrorism, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other issues. cooperation should be maintained.

Everyone knows that Blair's visit to the United States will be his last official visit to the United States. Because Blair strongly supported the United States in launching the Iraq War, his reputation in the United Kingdom plummeted, and he finally had to announce under pressure. Resigned monthly.

One of the most important purposes of Blair's visit to the United States this time is to seek support from the United States on the Falklands.

When a reporter asked George Wharton what his position was on the Falklands, George Wharton said that war would not solve any problems. The issue of the Falklands should be resolved through political consultation between Argentina and the United Kingdom and through dialogue.

At the same time, George Wharton emphasized the importance of the US-UK alliance and sternly warned Argentina not to use force to unilaterally resolve the Falklands issue.

Obviously, George Wharton gave Blair face when he came to the United States in person.

Argentina is nothing compared to the UK.

This is the most direct and severe statement made by the United States on the Falklands issue so far.

After the news came out, it caused an uproar in Argentina!

Argentinian people took to the streets one after another to protest against Americans favoring Britain and interfering in Argentina's internal affairs.

Armando Majora severely criticized the Americans, "The Falklands belong to Argentina. Argentina has sovereignty over the Falklands. Argentina will definitely take back the Falklands and will not hesitate to fight for it."

Countries in the Union of South America have spoken out, condemning the United States for interfering in other countries' internal affairs and trampling on their sovereignty.

The Union of South America is an alliance of sovereign states established in accordance with the Cusco Declaration. It was established just a few years ago. So far, it has 12 member states and 2 observer states. The Union is headquartered in Quito, the capital of Ecuador, while the Bank of South America is It is located in Brasilia, the capital of Brazil.

12 member countries, including 3 Andean Community members, Bolivia, Colombia, and Peru, 5 Mercosur members, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Venezuela, as well as Ecuador, Chile, Guyana, and Suriname!

All are South American countries!

The Union of South America is to learn from the EU and establish a free trade area covering South America. The short-term goal is to eliminate tariffs on non-sensitive goods and sensitive goods by 2014 and 2019 respectively. The medium-term goal is to eliminate tariffs on non-sensitive goods and sensitive goods by 2030. Establish an EU-like South American economic integration before 2050, and then realize South American economic, political, and military integration before 2050!

The entire Union of South America has a population of 361 million, an area of ​​more than 17.6 million square kilometers, a GDP exceeding more than 1 trillion US dollars, a total export volume of 200 billion US dollars, a foreign debt of 300 billion US dollars, and a forest area of ​​8 million square kilometers. Its regional organization accounts for 27% of the world's total fresh water, and its comprehensive capabilities rank fifth in the world.

Venezuela and Colombia, as intermediate powers, have expressed support for Argentina.

Over the years, Venezuela and Colombia have always emphasized that South America is South America for South Americans, not the back garden of Americans!

Therefore, when the economy is developing relatively well, Venezuela and Colombia have been promoting the establishment of the South American Union. After the establishment of the South American Union, Venezuela and Colombia have also been promoting the development of the South American Union.

Venezuela and Colombia not only have relatively good economic development, but also nationalized oil, natural gas, minerals, railways, and ports, allowing Venezuela and Colombia to have more money for people's livelihood construction and national defense construction.

Venezuela and Colombia have carried out a series of social transformations, which have also affected South America. Other countries in South America are also following the same example. Even in the face of pressure from the United States, they are also undergoing nationalization.

In an interview with the media, Chavez resolutely stated: "Once the second Falklands War breaks out and the United States sends troops to help Britain, Venezuela will send troops south to help Argentina. The sovereignty of a country cannot be violated!"

Colombia also made almost the same statement, stating that it would not hesitate to send troops south in order to help Argentina's sovereignty, independence and integrity be inviolable.

The war of words over Falklands has been divided into two camps, which are constantly fighting each other.

At this time, Liu Tao was participating in the test of a weapon.

This weapon is Dongfeng-17!

The Dongfeng missile is China's truly domestically produced ballistic missile. So far, China has developed a total of three generations of strategic missiles.

There are 6 types of first-generation strategic missiles, namely: Dongfeng-1, Dongfeng-2, Dongfeng-3, Dongfeng-4, Dongfeng-5, and Julang-1; second-generation strategic missiles are: Dongfeng-21, Dongfeng -25, Dongfeng-31, Dongfeng-41, Dongfeng-2 and a model of medium-range cruise missiles; the third-generation strategic missiles are mainly improvements in nuclear warheads.

Dongfeng missiles are also called Dongfeng series missiles because of their wide variety of types. This series of missiles has become the trump card weapon in China's national defense and belongs to sharp spears!

China needs both a solid shield and a sharp spear.

Only in this way can we deter jackals, tigers and leopards.

Since the first Chinese ballistic missile Dongfeng-1 missile was copied in April 1958 and successfully tested in November 1960, China's strategic missiles have made great progress. The Dongfeng missile family has always been the solid foundation of China's national defense force and has made great contributions to China's peace and tranquility.

So far, China has only exported Dongfeng-3 to Saudi Arabia. Apart from this, no strategic missiles have been exported!

The Dongfeng-17 is a conventional missile, a new generation of medium- and short-range conventional missile weapons. Together with other members of the Dongfeng missile family, it forms an equipment system with range connection, complementary capabilities, high and low matching, and flexible use. It has the characteristics of all-weather, independent, strong penetration, etc., and can carry out precise strikes on medium- and short-range targets.

The Dongfeng-17 missile is one of China's two hypersonic missiles. It is a hypersonic gliding missile. Its hypersonic gliding technology makes it as elusive as a "ghost" during flight.

This technology not only reduces the probability of being intercepted by the enemy, but also gives the missile a very high penetration capability.

And its stealth design and precision guidance system make it even more powerful when performing tasks. (End of this chapter)
