Start 1861: I just inherited the Dutch throne

Chapter 1144 Actions from the Secretary of State of the United States

"Ambassador Cruyff, the Netherlands is too important to Venezuela. We have always supported the development of more important relations between Venezuela and the Netherlands. If it were not for Colombia's obstruction, I would actually be more willing to support my cabinet government in starting a relationship with your government. More communication activities.”

President Blanco of Venezuela continued with expectant eyes: "So, I think Venezuela and the Netherlands can carry out more comprehensive activities in the future. For example, the exchanges cannot be worse than those between Colombia and the United Kingdom. Do you think that's right?"

Isn’t it worse than the exchange between Britain and Colombia?

Cruyff instantly understood what it meant to be no worse than them. It meant seeing Colombia close to the United Kingdom. Colombia had benefited, both economically and militarily, and was unwilling to compare with Colombia. The Netherlands comes to compare with the UK who is better for which country, or in other words, the benefits they obtain do not have to be opposite.

The United Kingdom and the Netherlands will become the biggest victims of their withdrawals.

Seeing Cruyff's calm expression, Blanco felt nervous.

If the Netherlands does not support Venezuela, then Venezuela will face rising risks compared with Colombia in the future. Colombia’s taste buds will be stronger in avoiding Venezuela.

Not to mention Blanco, many people in Venezuela cannot accept this result.

In short, the two countries were brothers and allies facing Spain from top to bottom, and they were one family. However, after the separation of the two brothers in the family, everything became more complicated.

Cruyff did not decide how much support to support Venezuela. He did not have the power to make the final decision. However, as a middle-level and senior executive of the Dutch ruling Socialist Party, he knew the future development direction of the ruling Socialist Party.

The Socialist Party needs to expand its global influence. At least during the four years it has been in power, it needs to seize this opportunity to expand its influence.

He was appointed ambassador to Venezuela by the leader of the Socialist Party and Prime Minister Jurda Netang. His mission is to expand exchanges between the two countries while also expanding the presence of the Socialist Party, at least no worse than the Christian Party and the Liberal Party.

"I just received news from China. I heard that our Socialist Party will communicate with members of the ruling parties in various countries around the world in the next three years. Currently, many countries are supporting this activity."

“Venezuela’s conservative party is willing to expand cooperation with the Socialist Party and improve cooperation between the two parties in parliament.”

“Our Socialist Party has increased its support for communication between the middle levels, so we have established branches in each state and province, and we have also established two-person communication channels for local councils overseas.”

"In order to increase friendship with the Netherlands, Venezuela will set up local parliamentary exchange meetings to increase local exchanges between the two parties."

“Our Socialist Party will support Venezuelan members who join the Socialist Party to return to Venezuela to invest in construction and support Venezuela’s development.”

"Venezuela welcomes them with a raised hand, and we will support and facilitate the development of this group of people in Venezuela."

“Our Socialist Party will propose a new proposal in the Dutch Parliament to support exchanges between the two countries, and we hope that Venezuela will respond by making more moves to be closer to the Netherlands.”

"Venezuela sees the Netherlands as its ultimate important ally as its biggest diplomatic priority, so we will legislate to push the Netherlands and Venezuela on a stronger footing."

"us."

“Venezuela.“

The two of them went back and forth, one making requests and the other making promises. This operation ended quickly, but both of them had smiles on their faces in the end.

This is an achievement that was completed during his tenure. Blanco smiled and said: "I hope Ambassador Cruyff will pass on what we just said to Melbourne and complete the signing as soon as possible. After all, Colombia and the United Kingdom will not wait for our slow motion."

Cruyff would naturally not refuse. What he just mentioned is a heavy performance. Perhaps because of this, he will be able to get a promotion and a salary increase in the near future.

……

“All countries are very concerned about the sudden approach of Britain and Colombia.

But like a bee's nest being stabbed, the relationship between Colombia and the United Kingdom has made Latin American diplomacy active again.

King Luis I of the Kingdom of Portugal suddenly sent an envoy to visit Sao Paulo, Brazil. In addition to meeting Pedro II I, he also visited Prime Minister Fonseca.

The purpose of visiting Pedro II was to show the blood relationship between the Portuguese royal family and the Brazilian royal family.

The visit to the powerful Prime Minister Fonseca indicates that Portugal's foreign policy has turned pragmatic.

The Kingdom of Portugal comes with sincerity, and Brazil will naturally not refuse. Therefore, the two countries publicly stated that although they have conflicts, they will not forget the treaty that the two countries are mutual security allies on both sides of the Atlantic.

Portugal's proximity to Brazil has once again ignited European countries' enthusiasm for Latin America.

Some countries in Latin America seem to have doubts about the guarantee of the Netherlands, and that is our German opportunity. "

Bismarck looked at the intelligence information and smiled proudly.

"Next, it depends on how the incident unfolds. Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom may also be relieved now.

But in the Netherlands, things are a little bit worse. "

On November 1882, 11, the State Department of the United States of America, which was in charge of foreign affairs, took action. Secretary of State Bradley announced that it would send an Under Secretary of State for Latin America to Colombia to explore the relationship between Colombia and the United Kingdom.

The right-hand man of President Garfield of the United States of America also announced that before this, the first deputy secretary of state had been dispatched to the Netherlands to discuss cooperation between the two countries in Latin America.

The Department of State of the United States currently has one Secretary of State and six Deputy Secretaries of State.
