Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 59 Rectification
The return of Joseph made Nord obviously stable. After all, Joseph is the core of Nord, the foundation of everything, and the source of citizen trust.

Nord Cabinet Room

Looking at the more than a dozen senior military and political officials lined up on both sides, Joseph's face was ugly. He did not evade to reprimand these people for their incompetence in the rebellion, especially Clare, the deputy foreign minister of Nord. He is the only boss who can compete with Robert, but at the critical moment he chooses to back down...

Although he used the excuse that he had been dealing with the upcoming visit of the US Secretary of State, everyone could see that this explanation was unjustifiable, at least Claire himself was a little bit speechless.

Looking at the deputy foreign minister sitting at the end, Joseph said seriously: "Claire, I hope this is the last time. Nord is the Nord of the Ragnar family. You are the ministers of Nord, not ministers."

What can Deputy Foreign Minister Claire say?He could only nod his head submissively. The minister and the minister probably meant the same thing, but when we really looked into it, we could find the difference. One was a retainer and the other was a public servant.

"Huaxia lacks an ambassador, you go there!"

"what!"

Deputy Foreign Minister Clare looked at Joseph with some surprise. What does it mean that the Principality of Nord has not yet had an envoy and now it is suddenly established?Especially since it was China and not the United States, not only Claire but also other high-ranking officials were puzzled. The only one who had guesses was James.

Although he was dissatisfied, could Claire refuse?Dare to refuse?The answer is obvious, so the matter is settled in this way, and no one knows the true meaning of Joseph.

Huaxia is still a relatively backward country at this time, but what is its status in the world after more than ten years?The economy is close to that of the United States, ranking second in GDP, and it is also a standing member of the United Nations, although it has a false name.

Perhaps Huaxia is not a developed country, and it is not that the quality of people living in that land is inferior to that of Europe and the United States, but as an ally, there is no country more suitable than Huaxia.

The East pays attention to long-distance friendship and short-term attack, and China's national policy poses no threat to Nord, so they have no conflict of fundamental interests, and they are natural partners, at least for now.

Huaxia needs the influence of the West, and as Nord's influence in Europe increases, its status in Huaxia's eyes will undoubtedly become more and more important, and once it becomes a member of the European Union, this status will undoubtedly increase exponentially.

For Nord, apart from the need to pay attention to maintaining the relationship between the United States and European countries, the economic alliance is undoubtedly of great benefit to Nord, after all, it is a big consumer country.

Although Claire had a background of betrayal in this rebellion, after all, he did not stand up and stop Robert in time, but he did not stand with Robert, and he was a rare diplomatic talent in the Principality of Nord. He and putting him in the right place is what Joseph should do.

Claire's matter has been resolved, and the next step is the reorganization of the cabinet. Robert's rebellion directly reduced the cabinet by 60.00%, but the opposite is the pure cabinet.

"I propose the establishment of the Ministry of Defense. The Ministry of Defense has the right to coordinate but has no right to mobilize and appoint the Royal Guard. The new Minister of Defense is Mr. Bach Heisenberg, Deputy Minister of Justice and Chief of Police."

Bach Heisenberg was also in the meeting, but he didn't expect such a good thing to happen to him, and he froze in place after James finished speaking.

First of all, let’s talk about the Ministry of National Defense. The Ministry of National Defense is actually just a nominal combat command plus a logistics department. The real military mobilization power is still in Joseph’s hands. The rebellion is a reminder to Joseph, not only to remind him to firmly control the military power, but also to remind him. The cabinet should be properly given a little power, which is why things like this happen now.

The power has been given to the cabinet, but this power... don't talk about it!At best, it is nothing more than adding a nanny to the Royal Guards, and allowing the military to officially enter the cabinet sequence.

This time the incident of the First National Defense Army allowed Joseph to see the defense loopholes of the Principality of Nord. Now the Royal Guard of Nord is incorporated into the Ministry of Defense. The purpose is to fundamentally cut off the power of the cabinet to recruit troops.

The Nord Law did not state that the cabinet could recruit soldiers, but the Royal Guards belonged to the royal family, and the cabinet had no right to transfer them. Just as the US Secretary of State was coming, Robert used this excuse to form a "guard of honor".

Bach Heisenberg’s performance in the rebellion was not satisfactory, but fortunately he was captured by the First Army of the National Defense, which invisibly recognized his loyalty and patriotism. Otherwise, why would Robert arrest him?

If Bach Heisenberg knew that this was the reason for his promotion, he would probably be dumbfounded, because it was too coincidental and too lucky.

"Mr Mark Thomson, congratulations on your appointment to the Cabinet."

It is completely different from the treatment of Bach Heisenberg. Although it is also a promotion, when the director of Nord Royal Television was promoted to the Minister of Propaganda, anyone could see the smile on James' face.

Not because James was not kind, this time Robert's rebellion plan was disrupted [-]% because of Mark Thomson, and the Royal Guards were not counted in it, because their chief's choice was wrong from the beginning.

After Mark Thomson accepted the appointment with some trepidation, James announced several new cabinet members and senior officials, including Bonova, former head of the Nord Royal Guard and current deputy minister of justice, and former Audi president , Deputy Secretary of State for Commerce and current Secretary of State for Commerce Ruburt, former Secretary of State for Commerce and current Secretary of the Home Office Smith.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs was changed to the Ministry of the Interior, and its status in the Principality of Nord was getting higher and higher. The minister of the Ministry of the Interior was similar to the deputy prime minister of the cabinet. Joseph valued Smith in general.

The military has not changed much. The head of the Nord Royal Guard has become the deputy head. Bach Heisenberg is only a nominal head now. I believe that this part-time job will be canceled in the future and he will be his nanny wholeheartedly.

A series of changes in the Nord cabinet was broadcast on the TV station that night. Ordinary citizens did not see anything, but some governments of other countries could clearly realize that the political storm in the Principality of Nord was over.

The first thing to do after the political storm is naturally to minimize the impact on tourists. Think about it. The news here has not been passed on. The only people who know are these tourists who are still in Nord. I believe that as long as they pay some wealth, most of these people will choose to keep it secret. , but expecting them to come to Nord is estimated to be a few years later, neither Joseph nor James has extravagant hopes for this.

Robert's matter came to an end, but his wife Nord is still quite embarrassing. The pursuit will give people the impression that the Principality of Nord will kill her. Although it sounds ugly, it is true, but giving up Joseph is not reconciled.In fact, there is another matter that bothers Joseph, the Chinese laborers and Eastern European laborers who participated in the National Defense First Army.

The small number of Chinese workers at Nord Royal TV is easy to deal with. They only need to pay a fine of $3 per person plus one month of volunteer work. This is just their annual salary.

As for the group of Chinese workers who were hiding, Joseph's first reaction was to deport them, but thinking about it, it was too cheap for them, but because of Huaxia's problems, it was not too good.

It was not because of fear, but because of Huaxia's help when Audi went public, Joseph kept it in his heart. It was just inappropriate to treat the Chinese workers like this at this time. In the end, it was the Huaxia government who helped resolve this matter.

All the Chinese workers were extradited back to the country, and the Huaxia government paid a fine of $30,000 per person on their behalf, and sentenced them to at least three years in prison.

There were quite a few Chinese laborers who escaped, and they were fined several million dollars in total, and they would also be punished accordingly. Although Joseph was not very satisfied, he finally agreed to this plan.

Compared with the group of Eastern European workers, the Chinese workers are even more difficult to deal with. After all, the situation in Eastern Europe at this time...

In the end, under the leadership of the cabinet government, these hundreds of Eastern European laborers used their labor to compensate for their crimes. Five years of hard work in oil wells was their final punishment.
