Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne - Vol 3 Chapter 464
The ‘Deep Blue Pacific Partnership’ will be held on January 11, 1869 in Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands. In addition to the members of the organization, the Netherlands, Spain, the Commonwealth of America, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, and Mexico, the Netherlands also invited the organization The core partner countries of Tsarist Russia, the Ottoman Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire participated.
On January 10, 1869, Archduke Rainer Ferdinand, Prime Minister of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, paid a visit to Amsterdam. On the first day of his trip to the Far East of the Netherlands, he declared that the European and Asia-Pacific policy of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was closely related to that of the Netherlands, Spain, the Commonwealth of America, The new strategic concept of the seven-nation alliance of the “Deep Blue Pacific Partnership” formed by Colombia, Peru, Ecuador and Mexico is similar.
The news filled the skies across Europe with a foggy atmosphere.
Including Austria-Hungary’s rivals, the Kingdom of Prussia, the French Empire, the Tsarist Russia Empire, the United Kingdom, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Italy, they all cast their attention to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands.
No one would think that the Netherlands was doing nothing to invite the Austro-Hungarian Prime Minister to visit.
At present, the Netherlands seems to be in a diplomatic dilemma because of its poor relations with Britain, France and Prussia. Therefore, any actions of the Netherlands in the international arena will make people think.
Austria-Hungary, as one of the largest powers in Europe, was defeated by the Franco-Italian alliance in 1861, by Prussia in 1866 and by the Russian Empire in 1867 in three border wars, but the camel was thin and dead. Larger than horses, the war power of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is second only to Britain, France, Prussia and the four countries in Europe, and it is still above the Ottoman Empire.
Many people suspect that the Netherlands currently has the support of the Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire, plus the Nordic Sweden, Denmark and Spain. If it really gets the Austrian-Hungarian Empire’s choice to stand in the Netherlands, then for Britain, France and the Netherlands, The pressure that will be increased invisibly is absolutely enormous.
However, doubt is still doubtful. As long as Vienna does not admit it, Britain, France and Prussia are still unwilling to see Austria-Hungary make this step. The last thing they want is to see themselves as the murderer who forced Austria-Hungary to make this step.
On January 10, local time, at the head-to-head talks between the heads of the Netherlands and Austria-Hungary at a reception in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, after the visiting Austro-Hungarian Prime Minister Rainer Ferdinand shook hands with Dutch Prime Minister Tolbeck, The two started a day-long meeting.
Archduke Rainer Ferdinand, Prime Minister of Austria-Hungary, started his diplomatic agenda by attending the upcoming summit of the Deep Blue Pacific Partnership in the Netherlands.
Archduke Rainer Ferdinand held talks with the Netherlands and Prime Minister Thorbeck at 3:50 p.m. on the same day. and attended by the Netherlands
Welcome dinner hosted by the Cabinet Government.
At the same time, in Vienna, the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph I said in an open media inquiry in the morning, “Amsterdam, the Netherlands is the Far East plan and Nordic strategy of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the global vision, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the ‘ Deep Blue Pacific Partnership ‘Meeting Point for New Strategic Visions’
Austro-Hungarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs official Foreign Minister Reichberg said, “The Deep Blue Pacific Partnership has invited many countries in Europe to participate – Austria-Hungary will be the core partner of the organization in the future, and we are also to discuss this further. Only came to Amsterdam because of a cooperative plan”
The Austro-Hungarian foreign minister declared that the “Deep Blue Pacific Partnership” plans to adopt the “Pacific Partnership 1880” vision at the summit. any threat to the security of interests. In an isolated way, it is used to counter the “great power challenge” of Britain, France and Prussia.
Archduke Rainer Ferdinand, Prime Minister of Austria-Hungary, said at a local press conference, “I am here to clarify that Austria-Hungary will actively take the lead in protecting the global interests of Europe and the Far East. Of course, first of all to protect Austria-Hungary’s interests come first”
“According to the instructions of His Majesty Joseph I, under the premise that it is currently difficult for Austria-Hungary to protect the interests of the Far East, it is necessary to make concerted efforts with like-minded countries.”
Archduke Rainer Ferdinand also added: “This time we will start discussing what kind of cooperation the partner countries of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the Far East will seek.”
Austria-Hungary and the Deep Blue Pacific Partnership have decided to sign a new Austro-Hungarian-Deep Blue Pacific Partnership in the second half of this year. The Prime Minister of the Austro-Hungarian Empire said, “In the context of the French Empire’s invasion of the Kingdom of Siam and the comprehensive security crisis caused by such powers as Britain, France, and Prussia, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the organization have established a strategic security cooperation relationship that goes beyond military security cooperation. “.
“The two sides have reached an agreement on the establishment of a representative office of Austria-Hungary in Sydney, Australia (the headquarters of the Deep Blue Pacific Relations Organization), so the intelligence sharing between Austria-Hungary and them will be strengthened.”
Archduke Reina Ferdinand, Prime Minister of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, demonstrated a pro-Dutch diplomatic line centered on the organization~www.mtlnovel.com~ Now, with the ambitions of Britain, France and Prussia, it seems to be confusing. Union, especially the intensification of the three countries looking for annexation objects everywhere, is forming a pattern in which countries spontaneously form alliances to look at the three countries in order to protect themselves.
In this case, rather than pretending to be a neutral, the Austria-Hungary Empire’s intention to clarify a diplomatic line based on the principle of maximizing its own interests with influence is included in the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Joseph I, Prime Minister Reina Ferdinand Archduke , Foreign Minister Reichberg’s actions and speeches.
The first bilateral meeting “Netherlands-Austro-Hungarian Prime Ministers’ Meeting” held in Amsterdam by Prime Minister Rainer Ferdinand also continued this line. Prince Abdul Vasi, Prime Minister of the Ottoman Empire, who participated in the summit of the organization as a “core partner country” together with Austria-Hungary, has been a friend of Austria-Hungary in recent years. The two countries have jointly fought against the Tsarist Russia on the Balkan Peninsula some time ago. the invasion-invasion.
With the Russian Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Gorchakov as the core partner of the organization, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire needed to work together to face this old rival, but they could just work together.
Of course, the two countries are more worried about their opponents, Britain and Prussia. After all, it seems that their relations with Britain, France and Prussia are deteriorating.
On the other hand, with regard to the current British private telegram to Vienna warning that “Austro-Hungary is participating in the ‘Deep Blue Pacific Military Organization to create tension in the Pacific’”, Prime Minister Rainer Ferdinand said, “We are coming to Amsterdam” is not for me to discuss The question of Britain and France and Prussia in the English Channel was instead a discussion of how Austria-Hungary was prepared to function as a global state.
In this regard, Tolbeck of the Netherlands agreed, “Austro-Hungary has this strength”
