A series of effects brought about by the establishment of the European Union in Chapter 622

"The United States is trying to take advantage of the turmoil in the Federal Republic of Germany's economic transition to deal with the mark, muddy with the EU's monetary integration, and at the same time test the EU's internal unity." ，/”

"The reason why they chose to do something on the issue of the appreciation of the mark is on the one hand to deal with the long-standing growing trade surplus of Germany with the United States, and on the other hand, they want to test the position of France and other countries on the German question, and they need to know the internal unity of the upcoming European Union," Sandy Welle said. Conservative Britons don't want the most valuable pound to be replaced by the euro.

"Yes, the British are well known for their conservative traditions, but on the American side, I am afraid there is another speculation, that is, the United States intends to undermine the process of monetary integration that Europe is going to pursue, break the stability of the currency value among countries within Europe, and make it difficult for European monetary integration that may be in a transitional period," Lin Yu nodded.

"Isn't the United States afraid of us doing evil?" Sen asked, frowning.

"Worried, but not afraid, exists. Everyone is very clear about the situation in the Soviet Union, and the current Soviet Union may not be able to pose a threat to the United States, and recently the Soviet Union has allowed the European banking community to enter the Soviet Union, and prevented the American and British banking circles from entering, and everyone in the United States knows that this is what we mean, so they are also forcing us to negotiate with them, and I am afraid that they also want to meddle in the Soviet Union," Lin Yu continued.

Lin Yu's suggestion of allowing the European banking community to enter the Soviet Union occurred not long ago, at the suggestion of Danzig, head of the Soviet Foreign Relations Committee, and adopted by Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev.

The first thing Danzig did after taking office was to declare the opening of the Soviet financial market to the European and American banking circles and to approve the entry of a number of banks worthy of the "trust" of the Soviet Union, and the first banks allowed to enter the Soviet Union were BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank, Württemberg Bank, UBS, Credit Suisse, Real Bank of Madrid, First Milan Bank, Bank of Rome, and other banks in France, the Federal Republic of Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Portugal.

The banks of the United States and Britain were directly excluded from the Soviet Union, and this move was strongly opposed by the banking circles of the United States and Britain, because the discerning people knew what these banks wanted to do when they entered the Soviet Union, and they also wanted a piece of the pie in this matter, but they were helpless, and France and other countries did not want the United States to intervene.

So, the Deutsche Mark turmoil was actually launched by the United States to retaliate against Europe, but will Europe succumb to this?

"So what do we need to do?" Jason nodded and asked.

"To solve this matter, it's very simple, doesn't the United States want to fight a currency war? Then we will accompany you to the end," Lin Yu said coldly.

"So there's a question, what if something like the Great Depression happens again? You know, it was because of the currency war that it eventually turned into a trade war, and wouldn't that be bad for us? Jason frowned, worried, now that European monetary integration is underway, if there is a trade war with the United States at this time, it will not be a good thing for the European Union.

The Great Depression that began in the United States, in order to pass on the crisis, the United States unilaterally announced the depreciation of the dollar to stimulate exports, which led European countries to follow the example of the United States, which caused world trade to be deeply affected and deepened the impact of the economic crisis.

"We are afraid of trade wars, isn't the United States afraid of trade wars?" "I believe that the United States, as the world's largest economic power, must be more worried about our trade war, so we might as well play with them and see who can survive." ”

"Yes, the two families in the United States have their own contradictions, as long as it takes a long time, it is difficult for the two families to work together, and it is said that His Royal Highness and that Rockefeller have a secret agreement, we can completely confess, Jason continued, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lin Yu, whose eyes suddenly lit up just now.

"Okay," under the gaze of everyone, Lin Yu suddenly said, "This matter is not good for us or the United States, I understand what Uncle Jason and Sandywell mean, I want to fight a war of attrition with time, but don't forget, now we have just stabilized part of the power in Europe, which many people don't want to see, so now many people want to secretly make some mess against us, although it will not bring us ruin, but after all, it is still trouble, just like the ancient Chinese saying, kill a thousand enemies, and lose eight hundred, It's not a good deal.

"What do you think should be done, boss?" Sandywell nodded, then looked at Lin Yu and asked.

Soon after the establishment of the European Union, the large and small institutions of the European Union were established one after another, and the basic functions of the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the European Council of the former European Community have not changed, but have only been transformed into institutions under the European Union.

At the same time, the Council of the European Union has also been expanded, and the European Court of Justice and the European Central Bank have also been established, of which the EU headquarters is located in Brussels, Belgium, the European Court of Justice is located in The Hague, the Netherlands, and the European Central Bank is located in Munich, Federal Germany, and Belgian Prime Minister Ruerdorf was elected as the first rotating president of the European Union.

Subsequently, the EU established the Preparatory Committee for the European Constitution, which developed an EU constitution that would apply to the entire EU.

In October, the European Union established the European Security and Defense Agency and the European Joint Procurement Agency to begin cooperation in armaments, with defense ministers of various countries serving as members.

Subsequently, the Council of Europe and the Council of the European Union successively adopted a plan for the joint development of a new generation of Eurofighter jets, powerful helicopter gunships, and other armaments, a plan for the establishment of a European global positioning system, that is, the "Galileo Plan," a plan for speeding up the development of high technology in Europe, that is, the "Eureka" plan, and later a plan for accelerating the development of European information technology, that is, the "European Information Superhighway" plan.

Subsequently, the EU successively prepared the Armament Recovery Planning Committee, the European Galileo Planning Committee, and the European Information Highway Planning Committee, and set up special funds to support these projects to ensure their implementation.

Soon after, Airbus announced that it would jointly develop a new generation of large trunk airliners, a new generation of large military and civilian transport aircraft, and a new generation of regional airliners by British Aerospace Corporation, European Aeronautical Defense and Space Corporation.

The European Security and Defense Agency has also successively announced the European new generation fighter plan, that is, the "Typhoon" fighter development plan, which is 30% by British Aerospace, 30% by France's European Aviation Defense Space, Germany's Thyssen-Krupp, Daimler's 208, Italy's Fenmecanica 10%, and Spain's IP Company 0% to establish the Eurofighter Company.

In fact, the project has been implemented since 1983, but halfway through for some reasons, the progress is very low, and now the European Defense Agency has once again integrated the major military industries, adjusted the specific implementation plan, and now will accelerate the plan, the plan announced the initial goal of the implementation of the plan is to complete the final design and modification in 1990, and the first flight can be achieved in 1992.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the project, the ministries of finance of European countries have also allocated part of the funds to set up a special fund to ensure the implementation of the project in the case of insufficient funds of each company.

At the same time, European countries decided to speed up the Eurocopter project, that is, the "Tiger" helicopter project, which was originally a new generation of helicopter jointly developed by the French and Federal German governments in 1984, and is the most ambitious military project of Eurocopter, but because the previous ordering countries have different opinions on the special needs of helicopters and individual models, it took more than 10 years to trim and test, and it has not yet made its first flight.

Now, the European Defense Agency has issued an ultimatum to the project, requiring Eurocopter to first meet the requirements for the development of advanced helicopters, and all sales matters will be promoted by the European Security and Defense Agency, requiring the design and development of this type of helicopter to be completed in 1990 and the first flight to be completed in 1992.

At the same time, the European Security and Defense Agency organized the Federal Republic of Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands and France to form NH Industries, in which Eurocopter has a 60% stake, British Aerospace has a stake, and the Dutch Stoke-Fokker Aerospace Company has a % stake in the development of the NH90 helicopter.

The helicopter will be developed in two types---- TTH transport type and MoH carrier-based anti-submarine type, and the development will be completed in 1990 and the first flight will be completed in 1992.

The European Security and Defense Agency (ESD) has once again announced other development programs, such as the "Ares Shield" anti-aircraft missile system, in order to achieve a more advanced anti-aircraft missile system, Europe invited the Soviet Union to participate in the project for the first time.

Europe is also jointly developing the Horizon-class large air defense frigate project, which is mainly led by the Italian companies Horizon Mecanica and Fincantieri, funded by the Special Foundation of the European Union Security and Defense Agency.

The whole world was shocked by this series of actions started by the European Union, they saw an ambitious European Union, and at this time, another thing also attracted their attention, that is, the issue of the appreciation of the German mark, everyone can feel that the problem of forcing the appreciation of the German mark initiated by the United States this time is likely to be related to the newly established European Union, but not many people know what the United States intends to do.
