From the very beginning, the Guevra diplomat never thought of "compromising."
With the rapid development of the Bailey Federation in all aspects and the establishment of strong self-confidence, they were no longer always giving in in international diplomacy.
Their foreign policy had changed, and it was targeted and aggressive, which gave the Guevra diplomat a very scary feeling.
This country, just like the Guevra of the past, everyone seemed to be provoking the nerves of the old order defenders, hoping that the other side would take the initiative to strike first!
If they gave in today, then they would have to give in even more tomorrow.
Standing behind them was Guevra, not a certain person or a certain interest group, but all the people living in Guevra!
Including the nobles, including the royal family, including everyone!
Facing the diplomat's question, Mr. Trumann stared at him for a moment, then smiled and said, "You're right, there should be a leader in everything. Since this idea was proposed by us, then let us take the lead, is there a problem?"
This kind of speech, which was not like the speech of the Federation government, made the room temporarily fall into a kind of silence, including people's ability to think.
The Federation government was sometimes not very strong, especially the president, which also meant that as long as they could call him, it was possible to change some of the results.
The Federation's policy had always been gentle, not so sharp, and it did not want to hurt others and hurt itself.
But at this moment, the Guevra diplomat felt the sharp feeling of a sword being unsheathed.
Even from a distance, he had the illusion of being cut.
He was silent for a moment, "As an influential country, shouldn't you respect the opinions of others?"
He turned his head to look at the other diplomats, many of whom he was familiar with, and they used to put pressure on the Federation together.
But at this time, those people avoided his eyes, and suddenly he had an illusion, as if … Guevra had become the "Empire of Yesterday", and an era that belonged to Guevra had ended.
There was no pity, sympathy, or embarrassment on the faces of these diplomats, only cold rejection.
This was a change of attitude. There was no such thing as "emotional" in international diplomacy. It was impossible to be emotional in a decision that would affect the future of a country just because the diplomats of several countries had a good relationship with each other.
No, the interests of the country were above everything else. At this time, they did not even have the thought of "betraying friendship" in their hearts. They just made the right choice. They only felt the honor of contributing to the country!
Mr. Trumann asked with a smile, "It seems that the 'everyone's opinion' that you think does not exist. Of course, as the host country, I would like to ask again, does anyone have any objections?"
"With the Federation as the leader, we will establish an international trade and monetary organization."
The diplomats of various countries shook their heads and had no objections.
At this time, the Federation was in a period of rapid growth. The economic recession caused by the Great Depression had been gradually withstood by the prosperity of international trade. The profits brought by international trade had begun to restart the real industries of society.
After the collapse of the financial industry, it helped the rebirth of the physical industry. The most important thing was that Nagalil "joined", which made the capitalists of the Federation realize the importance of local deindustrialization for their own development.
Cheap labor brought more profits, and the speed of social recovery was faster than expected.
At the same time, the high-tech industry suffered the least in the financial tsunami, which also made many investors realize the stability of the high-tech industry, the broader and far-reaching development prospects, and the explosion of the technology industry.
All of this allowed the Federation to gradually show its strong position in various countries around the world. Coupled with the victory of the naval battle, the birth of the air force, and the emergence of strategic weapons, people began to change their habits of the past.
The habit of following Gefra's opinion in everything, they began to cling to the new order maker.
The Gefra diplomat's expression also became very awkward. If it were a few years ago, he would have stood up and announced on behalf of Gefra that he would withdraw from the conference and organization.
At that time, other diplomats would leave with him. They knew very well that only by following the Guevara People could they benefit.
But now, he could not do that. He believed that even if he did, he would be the only one who would leave here in the end.
He was silent, angry, and helpless.
After the Federation challenged Gefra's authority, they still lived so well, which made some people see the real situation of Gefra.
Yes, this powerful empire that could dominate the world was actually not as powerful as people imagined. After the fiasco of the navy that they were proud of, they were no longer respected.
If a simple loss of the navy did not shake their status and influence in the international community, then the emergence of the air force completely knocked them off their pedestal!
The Federation did not need to develop their own military models. As long as they spent a little money, they could have the Federation's advanced bombers.
This kind of military equipment, which was regarded by some military experts as the "nemesis of fleets", completely interrupted the blockade of Gefra's Invincible Fleet.
They could no longer do what they did in the past, and it was very difficult for them to go back.
Mr. Trumann did not let the Gefra diplomat go. He had encountered such difficulties and difficulties before. He turned to look at the Gefra diplomat. "Look, no one has an opinion. What about you? Do you have an opinion?"
This seemingly ordinary conversation was like a sharp knife stabbing into his heart. He shook his head in silence, then smiled. "Since no one has an opinion, I have no opinion either."
Mr. Trumann nodded and said with a smile, "That's right. We respect everyone's choice and their decision."
"Maybe we will have some conflicts of opinion, but we will give everyone the most basic respect. If anyone has any ideas or different opinions, you can raise them directly. We will seriously consider them."
He paused. "Then we will continue this meeting. Of course, you don't have to worry about what you have to do today. This is just a …"
He tilted his head and thought for a moment. "A mobilization meeting. There will be more formal forms later."
"Let's continue what we said before. The Silver Alliance has a very bad influence on the world. If no one stops them and redefines the world's trade and monetary order, there may be a Brass Alliance tomorrow, and an Aluminum Alliance the day after tomorrow."
"The chaotic international trade and monetary order will cause a lot of confusion for countries like us that rely on imports and exports. In view of the common desire of the whole world to restore economic production, I believe that the Federation should take on more important responsibilities of the international community."
"The trade and monetary union we establish will play a key role as a third party. This will play a very critical role in stabilizing trade and monetary order."
"The first part, the part about trade …"
"Please turn to the third page …"
Lynch flipped through the booklet in his hand. He realized that this was not just a monetary organization. Mr. Trumann was so ambitious that he even wanted to intervene in international trade.
So there was a problem here. How to intervene?
From what Mr. Trumann said so far, the newly established organization would be similar to a "workers' union", but there were some differences.
For example, some trade disputes, delivery disputes, and the like could be appealed to this organization. Then, the members of the organization would investigate the whole case and finally give a decision.
In addition, the organization would also carry out trade matchmaking. For example, Country A wanted to import some resources. The resources it needed were in different countries, and the Federation could help to bring them together.
In the end, Country A could import these resources from countries B, C, D, and so on at the fastest speed and the most suitable price.
This could save a lot of time and even money, and it was the same for exports.
Just by listening to the content, the diplomats who had already voted in favor and were about to become member states were very moved.
The most troublesome part of international trade was the matchmaking. To put it simply, if a country wanted to sell some goods, these goods did not necessarily have to be in short supply or sensitive goods. It was not known if other countries in the world wanted to sell them.
If this trade was not handled, then the manufacturer may gradually go bankrupt because of various reasons such as not getting orders, overstocked goods, no profits, and so on.
However, if someone were to play matchmaker and directly tell him that someone else was also looking for such a product, the trade would be quickly settled. Both the supply and the demand would be satisfied, and all the involved parties would be satisfied with various factors. This would be a good thing for everyone.
For example, some small countries often played the role of "supplier" in the current international market. Their own technology was not developed, which meant that they were often at the bottom of the entire industrial chain!
What was the bottom of the food chain?
It was the supplier of raw materials, the supplier of rough processing, and the supplier of semi-finished products.
It was no exaggeration to say that this kind of non-technical goods could be supplied all over the world. In the context of global competition, many small countries were actually not competitive.
But if they joined this trade and monetary organization led by the Federation, then … First of all, they could be sure that these member states would be able to get orders.
Whether it was ordinary orders or political orders, they would be able to get them.
Having orders meant that factories could be opened, which meant that workers could get a salary through work, and the whole society would be stabilized.
They could not refuse the idea of the Federation. Other than supporting it, they had no other reason to refuse.
No one would think that it was meaningful to object.
This was the current society. Follow whoever had the money!
