Chapter 368 Treaty Signing
Chapter 368 Treaty Signing
After being rejected by Wang Ze, Johnson was not disappointed. Instead, he quickly changed direction and started negotiating with Wang Jixin.
The two men entered a conference room, closed the door, and began a closed-door discussion.
At the same time, the content of their discussion was also transmitted to Wang Ze in real time via computer voice.
Through listening, Wang Zecai understood the other party's real intention of coming to South China. Johnson wanted to complete the unfinished business of his predecessor.
Specifically, it is necessary to get South China to agree to sign the Partial Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Wang Jixin already knew Wang Ze's attitude on this point and agreed to sign it. He had been disagreeing before because Nanhua did not have a hydrogen bomb of its own.
After all, if there is no hydrogen bomb, signing such a treaty is tantamount to self-restraint and limiting one's own development space.
However, now, with the successful explosions of hydrogen bombs in South China, France and the mainland, the resistance to these two treaties has been greatly reduced.
When Wang Jixin made it clear that he was willing to sign the two treaties, Johnson could not help but be overjoyed.
Seeing that Wang Jixin agreed, Johnson was very happy. This was his political achievement.
He did what John hadn't done.
The atmosphere of the subsequent negotiations became relaxed and pleasant.
Johnson originally wanted to give South China some benefits to promote the smooth signing of the subsequent agreement, but after some consideration, he found that there seemed to be nothing substantial that could meet South China's needs.
And there are also needs, such as the US military ports evacuating Singapore, or evacuating southern Indonesia.
This is something the United States does not want.
So both sides had to take a step back and start talking.
Finally, Johnson came out and went to the U.S. Embassy in New Town, and then flew back to the United States.
This action was originally a temporary idea of his. After all, Nanhua was right next to him and close by, so he came here in person.
But if you are going to France or the mainland, this is completely unnecessary.
I have given them a good start. If American officials still cannot successfully complete this task, don't blame them for being rude.
Under the active organization of the United States and the Soviet Union, the six countries finally sat down together again and began to discuss the specific details of the treaty.
Nanhua's politics leaned neither towards the United States nor the Soviet Union, which led to the relocation of the talks from London to New Town.
Although Nanhua has agreed to sign, the specific content still needs further discussion.
Since all countries have basically reached a consensus on the signing issue, the efficiency of the negotiations is very high.
Not long after, the six-nation conference held in New Town was successfully concluded, and the countries jointly announced the formal signing of two important treaties, the Partial Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
This means that the status of nuclear-weapon states has been clarified.
This agreement caused strong dissatisfaction from India, which directly declared that India also wanted to develop its own nuclear weapons.
What Wang Ze did not expect was that South Indonesia was also very dissatisfied. They had received a nuclear attack, but now they were restricted from developing nuclear weapons. Suharto even had opinions about the United States behind them.
He had felt that nothing had gone his way for the past two years.
Although the original military operation was successful, it resulted in Indonesia being divided into two parts, north and south.
When trying to retake Sumatra, the indigenous people of the island actually decided to join the South China Republic through a referendum.
Faced with this situation, he did not dare to go to war with Nanhua and could only choose to endure.
Now when he wants to acquire nuclear weapons to protect his own security, the United States has been slow to agree and has instead turned to promoting the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
This is a betrayal! Suharto roared angrily in his office.
Now he is considering whether to apply to join ASEAN like northern Indonesia.
After the division of North and South Indonesia, because South Indonesia has never shown the willingness to join ASEAN, ASEAN's various investments and preferential policies for South Indonesia have been stopped one after another.
Only aid to Jakarta is still continuing, but it is also being reduced over time.
In contrast, North Indonesia received a lot of support, especially in industry and agriculture, which led to a gradual improvement in the living conditions of North Indonesians, even surpassing those of South Indonesians.
Among them, the situation of rice cultivation in Xincheng is particularly eye-catching.
Although it was claimed that the first batch of seeds would be supplied to the whole of Asia, when he sent someone to apply for them, he found that they were simply unavailable.
Later I learned that Nanhua only provides seeds to ASEAN member countries and mainland China.
Faced with this situation, he felt very worried. If he did not join ASEAN, northern Indonesia would probably move south and achieve unification in the near future.
In fact, what he was worried about would not happen, because Sukarno of North Indonesia did not consider the issue of unification at all.
After the last failed experience, he has clearly understood the position of South China and ASEAN countries, which is that they hope Indonesia will be split into two independent countries.
When the division of Indonesia became a real reality, neither South China nor the United States and the Soviet Union wanted to see them reunified.
After recognizing the situation, Sukarno set his sights on the construction of northern Indonesia.
He was determined to prove to the world that he was the best prime minister of Indonesia by developing northern Indonesia and improving people's living standards.
He wanted to make the Javanese in southern Indonesia regret their choice.
Because of this, northern Indonesia is developing quite rapidly.
With the help of Nan Hua's Southeast Asian infrastructure plan, Sukarno purchased a large number of construction machinery through loans and hired many Nan Hua's engineering and technical personnel at high salaries to guide the work.
Today, the islands in northern Indonesia are actively building roads and leveling the land, and new farms are springing up like mushrooms after a rain.
The economy is booming, and at least for now, people of all ethnic groups in northern Indonesia remain full of confidence and trust in his rule.
One of the greatest pleasures of the people in northern Indonesia today is to get together and make fun of the people in southern Indonesia, saying that they are inferior to them in every way.
In the military field, since Sukarno led North Indonesia to rejoin ASEAN, he began to gradually eliminate Soviet influence in the country.
This is actually Nanhua’s secret request.
Nanhua simply cannot accept the current situation where all ASEAN countries are backed by either the United States or the Soviet Union.
Therefore, during each ASEAN leaders' meeting, Nanhua would have private talks with leaders of various countries with the aim of eliminating the influence of the United States and the Soviet Union in Southeast Asia.
Among them, the Philippines is the most difficult for South China.
Although the Philippines is a member of ASEAN, in Wang Ze's eyes, it is more like a tentacle of the United States inserted into ASEAN.
Under Wang Ze's instructions, the secret guards have begun to act quietly in the Philippines, trying to infiltrate.
However, what makes Wang Ze feel helpless is that almost all the families of Philippine officials have close ties with the United States.
Even if one is cleared, the next person to come to power will still be a "spiritual American."
