Why are those two? Next, let's talk about it in detail. Let's start with the first option.
The first one is simpler and has only a two-step procedure. First of all, you have to propose changes to the UN General Assembly, which must be approved by more than two-thirds of the members of the United Nations. This step cannot be stopped by the permanent members of the Security Council, because there is no possibility of the veto being used in the process.
And then you think you can be happy? Can you pop champagne?
No, what if you pass it? Look at the second step: "More than two-thirds of the member states, including all permanent members, can only enter into force after ratification in accordance with their own constitutional procedures". In this sentence, the veto of the big hooligans is hidden!
What is the constitutional process? Let's put it this way, some countries need congressional approval, such as the U.S. imperialist Senate and House of Representatives (either of which disagrees is considered for nothing). There are also countries that need to be signed by the president or president, such as the woolly bear and the rabbit (Emperor Pu and Brother Xi said: Lao Tzu does not sign, and then ...... That's it...... )。 In short, everyone understands.
The above is the first method, and then the second method.
The second is more complex and has three steps. First of all, more than two-thirds of the member states of the United Nations and any nine members of the UN Security Council agree to determine the convening of a special conference on constitutional amendment and the time and place of the meeting (this step cannot be prevented by the permanent members). The proposed constitutional amendment would then be approved by more than two-thirds of the member states at the Constitutional Amendment Conference (a step that the permanent members could not prevent).
Step three, hahaha, let's laugh three times! It's exactly the same as the last step of the first option. Isn't this just funny? Emperor Pu and Brother Xi will smile and say: I won't sign again...... Then the view of the sea, as well as Cameron and Hollande, shrugged their shoulders and expressed great regret......
See, in short, there are five constants. It is harder to amend the charter than to ascend to heaven. If you want to be above board, you will become a big hooligan. Either that, it's the five hooligans who are doing the job and the dry service. Belch. To be honest, this difficulty is ten times more difficult than the hellish dungeon, and it is best to deal with the aftermath before launching the challenge, otherwise there is really no chance to prepare. Or maybe it's the wrong side of World War II. What if you're already on the wrong side? Then take the morning wash and go to bed.
The main reason why we focus on the Security Council and the UN Charter is that the prototype of the UN has already appeared in this time and space after Japan's invasion of Southeast Asia. After talks between Churchill and Roosevelt, the famous Roosevelt Churchill Joint Declaration, also known as the Atlantic Charter, was finally issued. This thing is the basis of the Charter of the United Nations, and it can be said that without this meeting, the United Nations would not exist.
After the publication of this declaration. It immediately attracted the attention of the Soviet Politburo. Trotsky was the most excited of all, because the publication of the Atlantic Charter made him see the possibility of building an anti-fascist alliance again.
At a special session of the Politburo, he said: "The Declaration is of crucial significance for uniting the peoples of the world who have been invaded by fascism, including the broad masses of the proletariat. I believe that it has positive historical significance and deserves praise and recognition. The people of the USSR should embrace this declaration and join it......"
Judging from Lao Tuo's attitude, he raised his hands in favor, but this does not mean that there are no other voices in the Politburo. Li Xiaofeng immediately proposed: "I do not deny that the declaration has a positive significance, but this declaration only emphasizes the targeting of German and Italian fascists, but ignores Japanese fascism." Article 4 implied that trade and supply of raw materials with Japan was permitted, and Article 7 implied that Japanese immigration was permitted. It is still trying to win over the status quo maintainers, saying that they are still ready to compromise with the Japanese fascists. Is this attitude appropriate? ”
In fact, Lao Tuo could see that the Americans still had no intention of using force against Japan. Although a warning was issued, there was still no concrete action, and it was still preparation and mud. From the perspective of the world's anti-fascists, the declaration in this regard is indeed insufficient. But this can also reflect the true attitude of the United States -- avoiding war.
However, Lao Tuo still believes that the declaration is of historical significance and worthy of support, and he believes that even if the United States has not yet pointed the finger at Japan for the time being, it is very rare for Germany and Italy alone. It's always nice to be able to share a little bit of stress, isn't it? Therefore, Lao Toshi believes that he can fully support the declaration, and the same is true for the inclusion of the Japanese issue in the declaration when the time is ripe in the future.
"We should enlist more friends and not turn out certain friends who don't agree with each other. For the Soviet Union, after defeating the German and Italian fascists, it was the same as turning around and destroying the Japanese fascists. This is in line with the Politburo's anticipation and planning for the war. And we should understand the situation of the U.S. government, and we should be more tolerant of our friends. ”
In this regard, Li Xiaofeng expressed fierce opposition: "The fascist axis of Germany, Italy, and Japan has long been one, and only opposing Germany and Italy not attacking Japan is a deliberate blind eye, which is not conducive to the comprehensive and thorough purification of fascism after the victory in the future." Or rather, this is indulging the Japanese fascists! will give them a chance to make a comeback! ”
After a pause, Li Xiaofeng said again: "Those who have not sought eternity since ancient times are not enough to seek a moment; Those who do not seek the overall situation are enough to plan a domain. Compromise in the present will inevitably lead to passivity and trouble in the future. It seems to me that the fascist forces must be thoroughly eliminated, and now that the pressure on our country has been greatly reduced, why should we accommodate other countries on such fundamental issues? ”
On this issue, a fierce argument broke out between Li Xiaofeng and Trotsky, and neither of them could convince anyone from beginning to end.
"That's a vote!" Trotsky finally got impatient and said, "Comrades who agree to support the Declaration, please raise your hand!" ”
After saying that, Trotsky was the first to raise his arm high, and immediately Ulitsky and Radek followed, and this was three votes. If Li Xiaofeng's side did not get three votes, then Trotsky's opinion would undoubtedly pass.
Li Xiaofeng was naturally the first to object, followed by Ruzutak, and now the attitude of the remaining two Leninists in the Politburo was very crucial, Frunze quickly abstained, and for a moment all eyes were focused on Sverdlov, and his attitude was likely to decide everything.
After about a minute, Xiao Si slowly opened his mouth and said, "I also abstain!" ”
At this moment Trotsky exuded the joy of victory. He felt three against two. His proposition is finally going to pass. But before he could be happy for more than three seconds, Dzerzhinsky, the man in the iron mask, who had not spoken, spoke: "I am against it! ”
Old Tort was stunned, he didn't understand why Dzerzhinsky objected, in his opinion, although the Man in the Iron Mask had always remained neutral, he was always oriented towards reason. And this time, Lao Tuo felt that he was on the side of reason.
At this time, Lao Tuo probably let out an angry roar in his heart: "Felix, you are playing with me!" ”
It can only be said that Lao Tuo made a mistake, Dzerzhinsky is indeed only oriented towards the truth, and this point will never change. But. In Dzerzhinsky's view, this time Trotsky was not in charge. He very much agreed with Li Xiaofeng's view that the German, Italian, and Japanese fascists must be treated together, and the three bastards had already formed an Axis bloc in cahoots. Turning a blind eye to Japan just because of the interests of the United States? What is the rationale for this?
If this argument is true, it is not a tacit acquiescence to the fact of Japan's aggression, then is it not entirely justified in Japan's aggression against China against the Far East of the Soviet Union? What kind of is this?
Dzerzhinsky was a more serious person, and he thought that Li Xiaofeng was right about one thing, that when there was no Atlantic Charter, the Soviet Union had persevered against German and Japanese aggression at the same time. As the pressure on the Far East decreases, will it be necessary to accommodate others? There is no such reason!
The Man in the Iron Mask said confidently: "Before the attitude towards Japan is implemented. I think that our official state should be silent about the declaration, the USSR did not participate in the meetings of the small imperialist blocs, and the Soviet people were able to defend their homeland on their own! ”
The Man in the Iron Mask had all said this, and Trotsky knew that it was non-negotiable. What's more, now it's three against three, and his proposal was undoubtedly vetoed. At the end of the meeting, when he met with Churchill's envoy, he replied: "On the question of Japan, we believe that more proactive measures should be taken, rather than being indifferent. Japan will not join the declaration until its attitude toward Japan is implemented......"
When Churchill received the reply from the Soviet Union, some monks were puzzled, because according to MI6 intelligence, the Soviet Union had made a certain compromise with Japan in exchange for Japan to abandon its attack on the Soviet Far East, which indirectly fueled Japan's ambition to invade the south. But how can the Soviet Union's current reply have the feeling of having to do ** and build a memorial arch at the same time? Could it be that MI6 is incorrect in its intelligence? The USSR did not compromise with Japan?
MI6's intelligence was indeed wrong, because the Soviet Union really did not compromise anything, and even took the opportunity to extort a sum. However, by the time Churchill learned the truth, it was already a year later, when Japan had already started the Pacific War, and the so-called Japanese question no longer existed.
However, Qiu Fatzi still wrote in his diary: "The Soviet leader is even more difficult than I imagined, and judging from the various measures on the Japanese issue, the other party's means of playing conspiracy are quite superb. I have come to realize that after the victory over the Axis powers, the Empire will probably face an even more terrifying enemy......"
In fact, Li Xiaofeng did not particularly resist joining the "Atlantic Charter", but he felt that it was really not interesting for the Soviet Union to join in a hurry, and the price was dropped! The Soviet Union was not a group of exiled slaves (Free France, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands, etc.) that were beside Britain and the United States, and could only kneel and lick to gain space for survival. The Soviet Union is a big country, and a big country must have the bearing of a great power, or at least it must show the value of a great power, and it cannot come and go as soon as it is called!
In Li Xiaofeng's view, now is not the best time for the Soviet Union to join the "Atlantic Charter", and at this time, the Soviet Union not only does not need to be particularly close to the "Atlantic Charter" but should also keep an appropriate distance from it, and it is even necessary to make another mess.
How about another stall? It's very simple, the United States and Britain have British and American lackeys, and why doesn't the Soviet Union have a little brother? The Comintern is alive and well now, and the Soviet Union can use the Comintern to make a fuss!
Soon, at the initiative of Li Xiaofeng, the "Joint Declaration of the World Communist Party" was discussed and adopted by the Politburo, in which the Communist Parties of the whole world, led by the Soviet Union, expressed their position in unison, strongly condemned the fascist clique headed by the German-Italian-Japanese axis, and called on the proletariat of the whole world to stand up against this evil force under the leadership of the Communist Party. He also declared that he would never compromise with the Axis powers, would never engage in any form of economic dealings with them, and would fight them to the end in the form of a total blockade and direct armed crusade.
There are quite a few Communist parties who signed this manifesto. At least no worse than the weight of the Atlantic Charter. For example, the Communist Party of the United Republic of Bulgaria, the Communist Party of Turkey, the Communist Party of Norway, the Communist Party of Denmark, the Communist Party of Yugoslavia, the Communist Party of Romania, the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, the Communist Party of Hungary, the Communist Party of Germany, the Communist Party of France, the Communist Party of Italy, the Communist Party of Poland, the Communist Party of Bulgaria, and so on.
At first glance, anyway. The Communist Party, which had a little to do with the Soviet Union, came out to play soy sauce once, and the momentum was still very lively.
However, in Trotsky's view, this was of little use: "There are many signatures, but how many can really play a role in this war?" ”
This is the big truth, among the communist parties in this vote, only the United Communist Party is relatively good, and the other Turkish Communist Party and the Yugoslav Communist Party can be regarded as having decent armed forces. As for what the French Communist Party and the like are, at most they are a bit of underground resistance. The most tragic thing is the KPD, and the hometown has been ended. In addition to Luxembourg and other high-level escapes, there are not even two small shrimps.
Of course, this is only Trotsky's opinion, and in Li Xiaofeng's view, compared with the lackeys on the British and American side, his side is actually stronger. How many powerful little brothers are there on the British and American side? The likes of the Netherlands and Belgium are actually soy sauce parties. Whether Free France was now considered a regime or an organization was disputed, at least Roosevelt never regarded it as a state entity, and the old president was at this time at the same time at the same time with Vichy France, and had great hopes for those soft bones.
Moreover, the Free France really did not have much strength militarily, at least compared with the small powerhouses of the Turkish Republic and the Yugoslav Communist Party, which had experienced ups and downs. Free France broke away from Anglo-American blood transfusion is scum.
From the comparison of future development potential, Li Xiaofeng also believes that the younger brother of the Soviet Union is more powerful. After the end of World War II, who turned the world upside down? The Turkish Communist Party is really quite powerful in this regard, and if it were not for the later Sino-Soviet polemics, which led to the two sides turning against each other, it would be really hard to say who would win and who would lose.
Therefore, Li Xiaofeng did not think that his side was shabby, on the contrary, he felt that Trotsky was still a little short-sighted, that old Europe was already in the past, and that the most important significance of this world war was to destroy these vested interests, and only by knocking them to the ground could the world order be completely changed. The Soviet Union in history did not do this, and Li Xiaofeng intends to do this well.
As I said earlier, Churchill's statement to the Soviet Union was rather strange, and in his opinion, the Soviet Union should move closer to the "Atlantic Charter", why did he show great distancing? In particular, immediately after the "Atlantic Charter" came up with a "World Communist Manifesto", which clearly wanted to unite the communist parties of the whole world under the banner of the Soviet Union.
Churchill saw a possibility at that time: "The Soviet Union is not of the same mind as us, and it is not difficult to see one word between the lines of the so-called Declaration - subversion." These heretics still have not given up their ambition to reddening the world, and are ready to secretly engage in conspiracy when the fascist hooligans are slashing and killing! The civilized world must be wary of the wolf ambitions of the Soviet Union, and only by tightly uniting together can it cope with the expansion of this demon! ”
Roosevelt's view was slightly better than Churchill's, but he also expressed great concern about the expansion of the Soviet Union: "The Russians have a history of taking advantage of the fire, and it is not difficult to imagine that if the United States allowed the Nazis to continue to undermine the order in Europe, in the future, the whole of Europe would be covered with red, and freedom and democracy would be completely destroyed." In order to protect the democratic world, the United States has the responsibility and obligation to play a key role, and we must do something! ”
It is not difficult to see that Roosevelt wanted to persuade Congress in disguise to loosen the chain tied to the United States, so he, like Churchill, described the Soviet Union in a worried tone, and only by portraying the Soviet Union as a demon can the hesitant Congress be frightened and the capitalists can really use American swords and guns to compete for the market.
In this regard, Li Xiaofeng did smile contemptuously, not that he underestimated the strength of Britain and the United States, but that they had fallen behind a lot in this world war. Needless to say, Britain is a complete mess, if the First World War only beat it half to death, then the Second World War can be said to have completely broken the backbone of the British, that set of colonial models can no longer be played, and collapse is inevitable.
As for the United States, if Japan had attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941 as scheduled, they would have had a snag to sing, at least in Germany to hold back Soviet expansion, as they have historically done. The problem is that because of the intervention of an immortal, the situation of history has changed dramatically. It is conceivable that the United States will only enter the war in the second half of 1942 at the earliest.
That's nearly a year later than history, and that year can change a lot. For example, the United States' war preparations are so tepid without strong external stimulus. Even if the acceleration began in the second half of 1942, the real scale effect would probably be in the second half of 1943. This means that the landing of the Americans in Europe will inevitably be delayed.
And this gave the Soviet Union more time, you know, the Soviet Union at this time was much stronger than in history...... (To be continued......)
