Opening 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 502 The Speaker of the House of Representatives Visits the West

"Dutch House of Representatives heavyweights confirm that the ruling liberal speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington has invited senior Dutch MPs across the board to visit Spain"

Michael, the head of the Christian faction of the Dutch House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee, confirmed on the afternoon of February 17 that the Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington invited several senior members to visit Spain together.

This is the first time a political figure has confirmed by name that Huntington does have plans to visit Spain.

Michael confirmed to the European Times on the afternoon of February 17 that he and Hanks, the director of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, were invited by the Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington.

Michael said that he was unable to travel to Spain with Huntington because he had a personal commitment and conflicts with his trip to Spain, which was scheduled to take place before the 20th, but Michael did not provide an exact date.

Other newspapers were preparing for interviews, but a spokesman for Michael did not respond to the report.

"Fairy Wood"

"Any MP who wants to go should go," Michael said in a brief interview in the House of Representatives, according to the European Times. "It demonstrates the political deterrence of the Disraeli government in the UK."

But Michael also believes that the Huntington House Speaker should pay attention to military issues that could escalate the situation.

In addition, according to the "European Times", Huntington's House ally and fellow liberal member Akers also confirmed to the "European Times" on the 17th that Huntington invited him to visit Spain with him, but he was unable to attend.

One blow caused a thousand waves. With the confirmation of these Dutch politicians, the trip of the Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington to Spain has been difficult to turn back, and now it has come to the point where it has to go.

Therefore, the development of the situation in the three countries of England, Netherlands and Spain has aroused onlookers in Europe and even the world.

Even other countries are gearing up and seem to be waiting to see a good show.

On February 17, 1869, Herman van Rompuy, the dean of the School of Foreign Affairs of the University of Leiden, the oldest university in the Netherlands, and a special commentator of the most influential European Times, Herman van Rompuy, boldly expressed Visit to comment.

He pointed out that Prime Minister Tolbeck of the Netherlands failed to persuade Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington not to visit Spain, but instead provoked a backlash from two factions of the Spanish parliament, calling on the Netherlands not to yield to British pressure.

Therefore, the relevant departments of the Tolbek government have begun to make necessary arrangements and deployments to cooperate with his visit to Spain.

Huntington, 58, who has served in the House of Representatives for more than 30 years, is known for his "anti-British protection of the Netherlands" and ranks second in the order of the first successor to the Dutch government, second only to the Speaker of the Senate. At the same time, it is natural to hope that there will be more "performance" for yourself and the liberals to enrich the factional vote.

Herman van Rompuy said that the Dutch and British had made several handovers since the publication of the Spanish Herald newspaper on February 9, 1869 that Huntington planned to visit Spain. After Prime Minister Tolbeck stated that "the military has opinions" at the press conference, the opposition in London has gradually increased.

He said that these days, the British Empire has privately spoken to the Netherlands through multiple channels. "If Huntington visits Spain and does whatever he wants to say what he wants to say, the British Empire will not rule out the use of force."

Hermann van Perron pointed out that this includes escorting warships and intercepting visiting ships through the English Channel or prohibiting landings on the Spanish coast.

The focus, he said, was the high-profile opposition from the British Empire, which had now also provoked a strong backlash in the Dutch parliament, putting Tolbeck in a dilemma, and he had to arrange an **** for Huntington's visit to Spain, as the emigration set in.

If the British Empire's **** warships are rational and self-controlled, both sides may just pass the game and achieve the task, but it will not hurt the peace. Naturally, this is the best.

He worried that if the warship personnel on both sides were not so manipulative but emotional, for example, if the captains of the warships of either side of the Netherlands and Britain were not rational and self-controlled, the warships of the two sides collided or even opened fire, which may cause the United Kingdom and the Netherlands to collide and even open fire. Tensions have risen and even caused the conflict between the two countries to expand. If the British Empire has the upper hand in the conflict, the Netherlands will be disgraced, and the prestige and leadership of the Netherlands in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific and the international organizations established by the Netherlands as a dominant force will also be seriously affected. damaged.

However, if the Netherlands has the upper hand, the Prime Minister of the British Empire and others will also face the risk of impeachment, and their status will also be affected. London may not directly do anything to the Netherlands for a while, but it will be soft on persimmons, and dissatisfaction will erupt. Spain, especially the expansion, was afraid to expand the wave of Gibraltar construction in order to be wary of Spanish sentiment.

Herman van Perron pointed out that the Netherlands is a country with three separate powers, the executive branch and the legislative branch are not unified, and their status is roughly equal. As long as one of the Speakers of Huntington visits Spain, even if Tolbek is the Prime Minister of the Netherlands, he can only respect it and he must fulfill his duty of protection. The only person who can make Huntington change his mind is himself. If he decides to give up his visit to Spain, I am afraid that There must be a good reason, because in history, the Italian Deputy Speaker has also found a precedent for a reason not to visit this sensitive area in Spain.

Perhaps the Anglo-Dutch crisis could have been avoided if Speaker Huntington had given up on his visit to Spain.

Perhaps in the seriousness of London, Huntington, the backbone of the Dutch House of Representatives who has been anti-British for 30 years, seems to be very difficult to give up.

Hermann van Peron was asked how to solve the current Anglo-Dutch crisis. Van Peron pointed to the sticking point.

He said that the issue of the Speaker of the Dutch House of Representatives' visit to Spain continued to be heated up, and even the storm was about to come, but this trip was a big deal. If the Spanish opposition parties could unite, he suggested that the ruling party of the Spanish government decline Huntington's visit. When the crisis can be lifted immediately.

First of all, if Spain declines Huntington's visit, it will immediately relieve Prime Minister Tolbeck of the Netherlands. Prime Minister Tolbeck once expressed the inappropriateness of this trip at the first time, but there is a lot of noise to persuade the Netherlands to enter. Prime Minister Tolbek seems to be unable to stop and is in a dilemma. It is even similar to Italy's persuasion of the deputy speaker to avoid causing the crisis between Britain, Spain and Italy. . The Dutch government agencies could not resist the pressure of the parliament.

However, if Spain opposes the weaker this time, it is equivalent to providing the best solution for Tolbek, and even the best step for Speaker Huntington himself. Don't ruin the two prime ministers Tolbek and Disraeli. On the contrary, it can increase the political leverage of Prime Minister Tolbeck. In this way, the small soldiers have made great contributions, and the Netherlands will definitely support Spain's position and interests after the fact.

For London, it could also de-alarm. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with the aftermath if it takes a lot of time and effort, or even misfires. In the same way, this can also be regarded as Spain's goodwill, and London must be aware of it. It will relax its foreign policy towards Spain, and Gibraltar will be more careful to prevent the Spanish nationals from fighting back again.

Concerned about the situation in Spain, refusal can avoid the shock of the situation and the possible losses of the Spanish army. If the United Kingdom really starts to strengthen the construction of Gibraltar and has blocked and intercepted the waters around Spain, it may lead to the "rise" of the opponents of the Spanish ruling party again, causing Major internal instability, the consequences of which are difficult to estimate, and the relationship between Spain and the United Kingdom will be even more unknown to what extent will it deteriorate in the future

Hermann van Peronz pointed out the last. The last is to maintain the relationship between Spain and the United Kingdom, which will help maintain a certain degree of prevention of economic dependence and unilateral diplomatic approach to the Netherlands, and prevent one road from going dark.

The cabinet government led by Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez can reap the dividends, and the government will make no losses.

It can be seen from this, Herman said that Spain is currently facing a major national security crisis. As long as the government and opposition-powers work together, the Spanish government can save the day by acting as good as it can, and even create a lot of peace dividends for the UK, the Netherlands and Spain. , worth thinking about.

Similar to Herman van Perron.

In an exclusive interview with The Australian Times, Kerim, director and chief researcher of the Australian Institute, also pointed out that Spain took the initiative to raise a question - "Can Spain take the initiative to refuse the visit of the Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington?"

He pointed out that under the circumstance that neither the UK nor the West could lower their tough stance, Spain took the initiative to ask Huntington to change or postpone the schedule. UU reading is undoubtedly a relatively operational and flexible approach.

He said that, according to the Australian Times, the Dutch House of Representatives Speaker Huntington plans to visit Spain and show his support for Spanish territory. If the trip takes place, it will be Spain's largest support, and it will be of great significance to Spain, but it will also be of great significance to Britain, France and London. Respond strongly.

Under the current three-way framework of Britain, the Netherlands and Spain, in order to avoid the situation in the three countries falling into crisis, can Madrid take the initiative to refuse Huntington's visit?

Indeed, for Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez and his ruling party, the very paused visit will undoubtedly boost their ruling capital.

Political figures from countries in Europe and other places visiting Spain are very reluctant to touch the Gibraltar issue. If the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the Netherlands, Huntington, can make the trip and support Spain's public statement on the issue of Britain's claim to Gibraltar, it will make the relationship between the Netherlands and Spain possible. The relationship has been elevated to a higher level, which is very exciting for Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez, who has just been ousted by his predecessor.

This will also play an important role in promoting and boosting his faction in the Spanish mid-term parliamentary elections in the near future.

Therefore, it is obviously unrealistic to ask Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez to give up such an opportunity and actively refuse Huntington's visit, especially considering Huntington's long-standing adherence to Spain's territorial claim position, This seems unreasonable, but based on the current potential dangers of the UK, Spain and the Netherlands, such an approach may be a more appropriate way to ease the situation at the moment. +Bookmark+
