258 New Zealand wants to reclaim the Auckland Islands


When the New Zealand foreign minister got an official reply from Tuvalu, he almost got angry with the heart attack.

"Tuvalu does not accept any interference in Tuvalu's internal affairs by any country in any way."

Whoever wants to interfere in the internal affairs of your country, and the matter of your purchase of armaments is no longer the internal affairs of your country The New Zealand Foreign Minister slapped the table and scolded: "A country with a big fart, half a year ago, it was still waging its tail and begging to let us New Zealand take in the immigrants of your country, and now that it has money, it will tremble."

If it was half a year ago, Tuvalu would not dare to talk to New Zealand's foreign minister like this, but now Tuvalu is no longer the country that once been, when the king visited New Zealand, only one foreign ministry official was needed to deal with the whole process.

Therefore, the New Zealand foreign minister scolded and scolded, and he also knew that he could not handle Tuvalu, and this matter still needs to be discussed by the cabinet again.

Because of New Zealand's national security, the Cabinet meeting was convened again for Tuvalu in a very short period of time.

"What do you think?"

asked the New Zealand Prime Minister.

New Zealand's foreign minister couldn't wait to say: "I think we should immediately retract the previous agreement to sell Auckland Islands, and directly nationalize Auckland Islands again before they start large-scale migration." ” "Are you kidding" New Zealand's trade minister became anxious and said: "Tuvalu's fees have been fully settled, and we have to take it back at this time, do you think they are willing?"

The foreign minister sneered and said: "Why can't we accept it, we were forced by the pressure of public opinion to sell the Auckland Islands to Tuvalu, and now, Tuvalu has enough strength to solve the dilemma they are facing, at this time, what is there not to take back the Auckland Islands."

The Minister of Trade scolded in his heart, he also knew that it was best to take back the Auckland Islands at this time, but he had received bribes from Tuvalu when he sold the Auckland Islands, and if the Auckland Islands were taken back at this time, Tuvalu would definitely announce the matter.

Although there is no tangible evidence to prove that he accepted bribes, anyone with a discerning eye can understand that whether there is evidence or not will have a very significant impact on his reputation.

"Even if we take back the Auckland Islands, what can we do?"

the trade minister could only solve the problem from another angle, saying: "Although there is a certain gap between the distance between Tuvalu and our New Zealand, and the distance between Auckland and our New Zealand, it can't escape the range of the DF-21 ballistic missile, let alone a submarine or warship."

What is the point of not only offending Tuvalu directly, but also not stopping their arms purchases."

Echoing the words of the Minister of Trade, there was agreement.

There were also objections, such as the Minister of Defense.

"That's true, but if we take back the Auckland Islands, there will be no place for Tuvalu to build a military base.

You must know that with so much armament, there must be a relevant military base to accommodate it, Tuvalu's mainland is only 26 square kilometers, how can such a large place build a military base?

” The Minister of Foreign Affairs also said: "Yes, the size of the country is a very critical issue, and as far as we have been told, Tuvalu has chosen one of the islands in the Auckland Islands that is specifically used as a military base, covering an area of more than 26 square kilometres.

In other words, if we take back the Auckland Islands, then it will be impossible for Tuvalu to build a military base at all, and this military purchase will naturally be cancelled. ” After listening to the foreign ministers and defense ministers, many of the people who attended the cabinet meeting expressed their approval.

Only a very small number of people who had accepted bribes from Tuvalu did not follow their suspicions.

The Minister of Trade found another reason and said: "How much will we lose if we default on the Auckland Islands?"

"We are in breach of contract," the Minister of Defense raised his tone and said: "This is clearly a breach of contract by Tuvalu, is there a clause in the contract we signed for the sale of the islands that allowed Tuvalu to build such a large military force, I remember that the contract was very clearly written, Tuvalu must not affect New Zealand's national security in any way" The Minister of Foreign Affairs was very well prepared, and directly took out a copy of the original contract for the sale of the island, and after distributing a copy to each person, he said: "It is indeed very clearly written in the contract that Tuvalu shall not affect New Zealand's national security in any way."

However, this kind of thing is originally a war of words, not to mention that he bought conventional weapons and weapons, even if he has a nuclear bomb, he can say that he will not use it, to deny that it threatens New Zealand's national security. ” "When it comes to fighting with words, it's always been who has the biggest fist and who is more reasonable."

After glancing at the relevant clauses in the contract, the Minister of Defense said: "Now not only have they not received their armaments, but even the army has not completed construction.

Seeing that the situation seemed to be out of his control, the Minister of Trade said: "Don't forget how tough Tuvalu was during the previous diplomatic incident between Tuvalu and Japan.

Our military strength is not as strong as Japan's. ” The Minister of Defense said dismissively: "Yes, it is true that our military strength is inferior to Japan, but you must not forget how far Japan is from Tuvalu and how close we are to Tuvalu."

Moreover, Japan did not take advantage of it at that time, and if we had mobilized public opinion, I believe that the whole world would support us. ” There are people in the "whole world" who are puzzled.

"Yes, why do you think Tuvalu buys armaments from China instead of from the United States, Russia, which are old arms exporters," the defense minister explained, "That's because no one wants to sell it to them, no one wants this cake to have its own defense force." ” "So, what if Tuvalu asks for compensation" Someone asked: "Their investment in New Tuvalu is, without exaggeration, more than 10 billion US dollars, are we going to spend 10 billion US dollars to compensate them?"

"Why should we compensate," the Minister of Defense said coldly: "They have breached the contract, so not only do we not need to pay a penny of compensation, but we can even ask them to compensate us, for example, the airport and port they built on the Auckland Islands, I believe, will provide a great boost to the development of our New Zealand." ” Airports, ports, residential areas, with these infrastructures, New Zealand can continue to develop the tourism resources of Auckland, and of course, it is very beneficial for them.

After a heated debate, New Zealand's Cabinet confirmed a bill, which was then voted on by Parliament.

Although Burns sent tens of millions of dollars in bribes at that time, which directly contributed to the Oakland Islands deal, at this time, none of those who accepted bribes dared to stand up and deny the bill.

When New Zealand unveiled the bill directly, the world was shocked.

After the disclosure of Tuvalu's $30 billion arms purchase, there have been various conjectures and predictions about the consequences of this incident, but no one could have imagined that New Zealand would be so decisive and directly announce the repossession of the Auckland Islands that have been sold.

In the image of the world, although New Zealand is a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, and the Governor General is also canonized by the Queen of England, it has always been at ease to develop its own economy, and the country's army is at most behind Australia's ass, as a second knife.

It is not an exaggeration to say that New Zealand is indisputable with the world, why did it make its voice so decisive at this time?

He did not hesitate to tear up the previous agreement that the whole world supported At this time, after Li Daniu, who got the news, scolded a few times, he hurriedly turned on the TV, because the press conference in New Zealand was about to be held. t1706231537:
