Chapter 755: Resolved by force

The Malvinas Islands, known to the British as the Falkland Islands, are an archipelago located on the continental shelf of Patagonia in the South Atlantic Ocean. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 The main island of INFO is located about 500 kilometers east of the southern coast of Patagonia in South America, at about 52° south latitude. The entire archipelago includes Soledar, Great Malvina and 776 small islands with a total area of 12,200 square kilometers.

There is a great deal of controversy over the ownership of this island, which was first seen by Davis, an English navigator aboard the Desire, in 1592 during the colonial era of the Empire, and according to their logic, the island should belong to them.

Two hundred years later, in 1816, Argentina, which declared independence from Spain, claimed sovereignty over the Falkland Islands.

The reason is also very simple, because the Malvinas Islands are in the waters of the South Atlantic Ocean east of the southern tip of Argentina, only more than 500 kilometers away from Argentina, and tens of thousands of kilometers away from the United Kingdom! This is the imprint left by the British colonial era and should not be recognized!

Regarding the sovereignty of the islands, the two countries have gone through many consultations, and even with the mediation of the United Nations, they have not been able to reach a consensus. And now, Argentina has finally resorted to force and has taken back the Falklands with real force!

And for Britain it was a barbaric invasion, and the Falkland Islands were a sacred and integral part of Britain!

Hearing this news, the Iron Lady's face changed instantly, in the past few years, the world has really not been peaceful! The conflict in the Middle East has just ended, and in the South Atlantic, war has begun again!

Britain has no other choice but to use force to solve the Falklands problem! Since she is called the Iron Lady, of course Margaret Thatcher will not compromise!

"Mr. President Reagan, our Falkland Islands have been brutally invaded." Margaret Thatcher said to Reagan: "I wonder what you think? ā€

Britain is America's best friend, and Argentina is also America's best friend in South America. Therefore, now the British decision-making must first depend on the attitude of the Americans!

"I am also shocked by this incident, Argentina actually used force to resolve the Falklands conflict, and our attitude in the United States is resolutely opposed." "We have decided to impose a total arms embargo and economic blockade on Argentina until the Falklands incident is resolved," Reagan said. At the same time, we, the entire Western world, must also unite to jointly meet this challenge to our NATO. ā€

When he heard the news, in an instant, Reagan was happy in his heart, the Argentine had a good time to make trouble! Now, I am struggling with the Middle East oil problem, the domestic political situation is also unstable, and all the news media are adding fuel to the fire, and if I can't handle it myself, I will greatly lose the support of the domestic people.

It just so happened that this thing happened! Argentina seized the Falklands by force, and then, Britain will use force to retake it! The eyes of the whole world will be fixed on the South Atlantic, and this crisis on our side can be regarded as safe! Moreover, taking advantage of this opportunity, it is just time to reunite NATO countries and establish the prestige of the United States, and NATO countries will contribute money and efforts to help Britain win this war!

As for Argentina, that Galtieri, the last time he met with him, he mentioned the Falklands, and he didn't agree at all, and in order to take care of Galtieri's feelings, Reagan didn't object, and now, it seems that that guy misunderstood his meaning and took his attitude as a tacit acquiescence!

Between Britain and Argentina, the United States, of course, has chosen to support Britain! This is an opportunity to unite the Western world!

"Thank you for your support." Margaret Thatcher said: "I'm sorry, we need an urgent cabinet meeting. ā€

With the attitude of the United States, Britain has become even more determined in its decision to use force, and now Margaret Thatcher needs to convene an emergency meeting to negotiate. Quickly send troops to recover the Falklands!

After World War II, Britain has declined sharply, but if this is the only way to think that Britain will not dare to fight, then Argentina is too complacent! Even if Britain falls, it is not comparable to a third-rate country like Argentina!

Now, in April of 82, the weather in Moscow is already very warm, and in the Kremlin, Andrei made a report to the participants at the ZHJ meeting on cooperation with Cheng Fei to develop a special foreign trade aircraft for Egypt and Pakistan and other countries.

"General Andrey, according to your ideas, if we cooperate with Huaxia's Chengfei, will Huaxia's Chengfei steal our technology and then have the ability to develop new fighters?" Ustinov asked.

In many ways, Ustinov agrees with Andrei's proposition, but now, will cooperation with Huaxia to produce a fighter aircraft give Huaxia the ability to develop its own fighters? After all, although it has a friendly relationship with Huaxia now, it is still necessary to guard against Huaxia.

"Yes, General Andrey, if this project can be completed, will it rob us of the export market for fighters?" Another person asked.

"I've already thought about these questions." Andrei said: "Theoretically, we are cooperating with Chengfei to develop, because Chengfei has no experience, and Egypt, the main funder, wants to improve the performance of the fighter, so the original plan of small-scale modification on the basis of the J-7 is scrapped and has to be redesigned, and in order to raise more funds and share the development risk, Pakistan has been pulled over." Now, this project is mainly carried out by us, and a lot of design must be completed by us, and Cheng Fei can't learn much knowledge even if he follows and learns, because I already have a suitable plan, which is a completely copycat American F-16. ā€

Copycat American F-16!

How can the design of a new light fighter be completed quickly and efficiently? How can we save labor costs, avoid risks, and make this fighter out as soon as possible? On the returning passenger plane, Andrey, after careful consideration, still felt that the cottage was the simplest!

Now, in the research institutes of the USSR, there are already American-made F-14s, F-15s, and just last year, there was another F-16! This is a fighter plane left by the United States at the Prince Sultan Air Base near Riyadh, and when it was retreating, it was still repairing at the base, and the Iraqi army captured the airport and captured the plane!
