Chapter 1153: Chapter 1151: Does Anyone Object?

From the very beginning, Gafura’s diplomat didn’t even think about "compromise."

With the rapid development of Bail Federal in various aspects and the establishment of strong self-confidence, they are no longer continuously making concessions in international diplomacy as they did in the past.

Their foreign policy has shifted to being targeted and aggressive, giving Gafura’s diplomat a terrifying feeling.

This country, much like the once mighty Gafura, seems to be provoking the nerves of those maintaining the old order, hoping the other side makes the first move!

If concessions are made today, then tomorrow there will be more required.

Behind him stands Gafura, not a particular individual or interest group, but all of the people living in Gafura!

Including the aristocracy, including the Imperial Family, including everyone!

Facing the diplomat’s issues, Mr. Truman gazed at him for a moment, then smiled broadly, "You’re right, every matter should have a leader. Since this concept was proposed by us, why shouldn’t we lead it? Is there any problem?"

This kind of statement, which seemed uncharacteristic of the Federation Government, caused a brief pause in the room, including in people’s thinking abilities.

The Federation Government is not always very assertive; especially the President is a person who is easy to talk to, which also means that as long as you can call him, it is possible to change some outcomes.

The Federation’s policy has always been mild and not sharp; it is unwilling to harm others and itself at the same time.

But at this moment, Gafura’s diplomat felt the sharpness of swords being drawn from their scabbards.

Even from a distance, there was an illusion of being cut.

He paused in silence, "As an influential country, shouldn’t you respect the opinions of others a bit?"

He turned his gaze to other diplomats, many of whom he knew well and had previously pressured Federation representatives together.

But at this moment, those people avoided his gaze, and suddenly he had an illusion that... Gafura had become the "Empire of Yesterday," as if an era belonging to Gafura had ended.

On these diplomats’ faces, there was no pity, sympathy, embarrassment, only cold rejection.

This is a shift in attitude; international diplomacy never has a place for "emotion." It is impossible to make a sentimental decision that affects a country’s future destiny just because the relationships between a few diplomats are good.

No, the country’s interests are above everything. At this moment, they don’t even have thoughts of "betraying friendship." They just made the best choice and felt the honor of devoting themselves to the country!

Mr. Truman laughed and asked back, "It seems that what you thought was ’everyone’s opinion’ doesn’t exist. Of course, as the host country of the meeting, I want to ask again, does anyone have objections?"

"To make the Federation the leading position, and establish an international trade and currency organization."

Diplomats of various countries shook their heads one by one, without any objections.

At this moment, the Federation is in the phase of ultra-high-speed ascendancy. The economic recession brought by the great depression has gradually been brought to a halt amid the prosperity of international trade, and the profits from international trade are beginning to reactivate the real industry of society.

Following the collapse of the financial industry, real industry has instead been helped to rebirth. The most critical factor is the "addition" of Nagariel, allowing Federation’s capitalists to realize the importance of domestic deindustrialization to their own development.

Cheap labor brings more profits, and the social recovery speed is faster than imagined.

At the same time, the high-tech industry was least hurt in the financial tsunami, causing many investors to realize the stability of the high-tech industry and its broader, more far-reaching development prospects. There’s a major boom in the tech industry.

All of these have allowed the Federation to start showing its strong position gradually from various countries around the world, coupled with the victory of a naval battle, the birth of the air force, and the emergence of strategic-level weapons. People have begun to change their past habits.

The habit of prioritizing Gafura’s opinions has started to look to the new order maker.

Gafura’s diplomat’s expression has become very embarrassed. If it were a few years ago, he would have slapped the table and stood up, representing Gafura to announce his withdrawal from this meeting and organization.

At that time, other diplomats would follow him to leave. They clearly knew that only by following Gafura could they benefit.

But now he can’t do that. He believes that even if he did, he would be the only one to leave in the end.

He is silent, angry, and helpless.

After the Federation challenged Gafura’s authority, they are still living so prosperously, causing some people to see through Gafura’s weaknesses.

Yes, this powerful empire that once traversed the world is not as strong as people imagined. After its proud navy suffered a brutal defeat, it was no longer awe-inspiring.

If merely a naval defeat couldn’t shake their status and influence in the international community, then the birth of the air force completely knocked them off the altar!

No need for self-development; the Federation has military sales models for foreign trade. With some money, you can have advanced Federation bombers.

This piece of equipment, considered a "fleet nemesis" by some military experts, completely interrupted the blockade of naval rights by Gafura’s invincible fleet.

They can no longer be as they were in the past, and it is very hard to go back.

Mr. Truman did not spare Gafura’s diplomat; he had also suffered such difficulties and embarrassment before. He turned his gaze to Gafura’s diplomat, "Look, everyone has no objections. What about you, do you have any objections?"

This seemingly ordinary dialogue was like a knife stabbing into his heart; he shook his head in silence, then showed a smile, "Since everyone has no objections, I have no objections either."

Mr. Truman nodded with a smile and said, "That’s correct. We respect everyone’s choices and decisions."

"Perhaps we’ll have conflicts in certain opinions, but we will provide everyone with the most basic respect. If anyone has any thoughts, different opinions, they can directly bring them up, and we will consider them seriously."

He paused for a moment, "Next, we will continue this meeting. Of course, everyone doesn’t need to worry about making decisions today. This is just a..."

He tilted his head in thought, "Mobilization meeting, subsequently there will be more formal formats."

"Let’s continue from where we left off. The influence of the Silver Alliance on the world is very detrimental. If no one is there to stop them and redefine the world’s trade and currency orders, maybe tomorrow there will be a Brass Alliance, and the day after, an Aluminum Ore Alliance or something."

"Chaotic international trade and currency orders will cause great confusion for those of us who rely heavily on import and export. Given the common wish of all countries to recover economic production urgently, I believe the Federation should take up more important international social responsibilities."

"The trade and currency alliance we establish will play a key role as a third party. This will be very crucial in stabilizing trade and monetary order."

"The first part, about the trade section..."

"Please turn to page three..."

Lynch flipped through the booklet in his hand, realizing this is not merely a currency organization; Mr. Truman’s ambition is large. He even wants to get involved in international trade.

So here lies the question: How to intervene?

From Mr. Truman’s current statement, the newly established organization will become something like a "Workers’ Union" but with some differences.

Things like trade disputes, delivery disputes, etc., can be appealed to this organization, and then the organization members investigate the whole case and eventually give handling opinions.

Additionally, the organization will facilitate trade, such as if country A wishes to import certain resources needed, which are distributed in different countries, the alliance organization can help facilitate.

Ultimately, country A can import these resources from countries B, C, D at the fastest speed and best price.

This can save a lot of time and even money, and exports work the same.

Upon hearing these contents briefly, various diplomats who had long voted in favor and who were soon to become member states were very interested.

The most troublesome aspect of international trade is trade facilitation. Simply put, a country has some goods it wants to sell. These goods may not be scarce or sensitive, and it doesn’t know which other countries in the world want them.

If this trade is not facilitated, producers may gradually go bankrupt and shut down due to various reasons, such as not getting orders, stockpiling goods, and no profits.

But if someone facilitates trade, directly telling them someone is also seeking these goods, the trade can be quickly negotiated, satisfying both supply and demand sides, and fulfilling various factors in all involved segments, which is good for everyone.

Some small countries often play the role of "suppliers" in the current internationalized large market. Their technology isn’t very advanced, meaning they often lie at the bottom of the entire industrial chain!

What does the bottom mean?

It means being raw material providers, rough processing providers, or semi-finished product providers.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that such non-technical goods can be supplied globally. In the context of global competition, many small countries don’t really possess competitiveness.

But if they join this Federation-led trade and currency organization, then... the first point can be determined: these member countries will certainly get orders.

Whether ordinary orders or political orders, all can be placed.

Having orders means factories can operate, workers can earn salaries through work, and the whole society will thereby become stable.

They cannot refuse the Federation’s idea; besides supporting it, they have no other reason to refuse.

No one would think opposing this is meaningful.

In today’s society, it’s like this: follow those who have money!
