Chapter 473: The U.S. Stance

"We solemnly warn Australia that no one can prevent the implementation of the New Zealand Ownership Agreement, whether it is the current New Zealand government or other so-called alliances with other countries. This is an internal matter of the private territory. The New Zealand Ownership Agreement is an internationally authentic and valid agreement recognized by the United Kingdom, Russia, the Celestial Empire and even the United Nations. Given that the former New Zealand government had no sincerity in negotiations, the Ministry of Defense of the Private Territory will carry out all necessary military operations on it to help the island owner, Mr. Ji Feng, obtain the benefits he deserves."

"We really hope that Australia is deceived, threatened by the former New Zealand government, and encouraged by all people or organizations who do not want New Zealand to return to Mr. Ji Feng's arms. As long as Australia announces the cancellation of the declaration of war on us within today, we will not blame us. Otherwise, all the consequences caused will be borne by Australia!"

After the joint statement between the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Administration was sent at 10 a.m., it even sent a fax and email to the distant Australian government, officially warning them that it would be better to revoke the declaration of war.

Unfortunately, the "good intention" of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Administration did not attract the attention of the other party. Then, around the evening of local time in Australia, the Australian government issued a stern warning again, stating that they would never recognize the so-called New Zealand ownership agreement, and it would be even more impossible for the Ministry of Defense's army to act recklessly in Oceania.

At this last moment of the year, it is really chaotic. Countries around the world are paying close attention to the development of the situation between private territories and New Zealand and Australia, and this is the time when many countries express their attitude.

After yesterday, more countries have withdrawn their citizens in New Zealand today. Especially the last diplomats have evacuated one after another, which has made the current New Zealand government feel unprecedented concerns. Fortunately, the American diplomats have not withdrawn, and Australian troops have also arrived two days ago.

Now, there are more than 150 reconnaissance aircraft in the entire New Zealand territory, and the total number of army is more than 50,000. There are more than 70 types of military ships distributed in the waters of New Zealand. Even with Australia's combat power, it is impossible to reach this level of quantity. It also includes the temporary leases of New Zealand from other countries, and several of them even originated from the United States. Although they were not approved by the government.

The unprecedented military force finally made the current New Zealand government feel a little relieved. As for the Chatham Islands occupied by the First aircraft carrier formation around the evening of yesterday, they really didn't care much. After all, there were only more than 200 people on it. The industry is not worth much money.

In addition to the British royal family who sold them decades ago, a large number of citizens of their country fled New Zealand in the past six months. As a result, even if they want to develop, they have only developed more than 30,000 people. The others either insist on being neutral or only agree to provide spiritual support and let them take up the weapons in their hands to resist the arrival of the first aircraft carrier formation, but they disagree.

This made New Zealand's current Prime Minister John Clark angry and a little sad. No matter how he lobbies, why do they just don't believe that they can guarantee New Zealand's safety? Even if there is a slight difference between our manpower and equipment and the other party, we are allies of the United States after all. Will the United States, as the eldest brother, still watch us suffer?

Just as he was anxiously waiting for Defense Minister Ma Pu to give him a victory to prove that his choice was right, countries around the world were paying close attention to this game, and there might be one or two countries about to die.

As a traditional ally of New Zealand and Australia and the leader of NATO member states, the United States finally responded to the New Zealand incident for the first time.

"Although the New Zealand Ownership Agreement has been recognized by some countries, we are still looking for more evidence to support the authenticity of this agreement. We regret to see that the firefighting occurred in the waters of New Zealand at this time. Yesterday, New Zealand had lost four fighter jets and eight pilots, and the Chatham Islands had also fallen into the hands of the First Aircraft Carrier Formation. We advise both sides to be able to resolve the dispute through negotiation, rather than to achieve their respective goals through war. After all, ordinary people will always suffer from war."

"But unfortunately, we communicated with the Ministry of Government of the Private Territory many times, and the other party rejected our kindness. Given that the First Aircraft Carrier Formation has actually entered the territory of the United States and has had fire with our United States allies, the President proposed that economic sanctions will be imposed on the private territory..."

Although the statement of the United States is not very polite, the final result is that countries around the world are a little surprised. Originally, almost the entire northern country would believe that even if the United States does not attack its private territory, it would at least send its own powerful Pacific fleet to sweep away the first aircraft carrier formation. How could it be that after all, it would be just economic sanctions against private territory?

Well, the whole world knows that you like to sanction others, but at least you have to trouble you to impose stricter measures. Economic sanctions only charge 5% of other people's goods. What does this have to do with confiscation? More importantly, there are not many goods manufactured in private territory exported to the United States. Most of them are exported to private territory. It can be said that private territory is the arena of goods for countries around the world, and the competition is extremely terrible. Who makes private territory have zero relations with almost all countries?

The response from the private territory was also very fast, as if it had been negotiated with the United States. Less than ten minutes after the White House spokesman announced the decision, the Ministry of Administration signed a punitive tariff against the United States, with all goods from the United States being punished with a punitive tariff of 10% from now until the United States lifted sanctions on private territory.

Don’t underestimate this 10%. You should know that the cost of American goods themselves is high, and competition in private territory does not have much advantage. Now with this 10% tariff, you can think about how many people are willing to buy American goods. It’s not that there are similar products that can replace them, and the quality is not inferior to theirs at all.

This matter was really tragic when Oba communicated with Ji Feng. Anyway, he was about to step down in more than half a month, and the pressure from the United States made him increasingly unable to bear it. If he insisted on disagreeing, he might become the first president to be impeached in the last half month.

Even if there are endless arguments between support and opponents in Congress, the new president will come to power on the 20th next month. The Republican Party has obviously gradually gained an advantage at this time, and even in Congress, their voices are getting louder and louder.

Ji Feng really felt that it was indifferent to this, and even said to Obama with a smile: "Or might as well just surrender their minds, Rick Santorum has always wanted the Pacific Fleet to come out for activities? Oh by the way, he also said that the Atlantic Fleet can complete encirclement and annihilation at any time, or do you just follow what he said?"

As if he was stepped on his tail, Oba immediately refused and said, "Oh damn, Ji, you can't do this. Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. You can't do it if you want to replace the United States in the world. Even if the United States has no aircraft carrier battle group, it's still not your turn, let alone if the United States really wants to participate in the war, the winner and defeat between our two sides may not be determined by whom."

Ji Feng laughed and said, "Why don't we compete while you can still be on stage for the past 19 days? Don't worry, I will never let you down."

Obba's head was shaking like a human wave in the office. Even the Minister of Defense sitting in front of him looked a little bad. No one was slapped in the face like this, but they really didn't dare to agree to Ji Feng's words casually. First, they knew Ji Feng's fear, especially Ji Feng's military equipment terror; second, they were about to step down in more than ten days anyway, so it would be a headache for the next government.

"Ji, we are friends. Our friendship will not change no matter what. Even if it causes me to lose this broken position, so man, I will not use force with you, but it is still necessary to apply some economic sanctions appropriately. But don't worry, your industry in the United States will not be affected too much."

"Rick Santorum is a cruel guy. I don't have much confidence in him, so you have only 20 days left. Man, I hope you can have a happy mood to enjoy life after you step down, such as taking your wife and children to all over the world for vacation."

The United States' attitude is like a guiding light, showing the United States' position to many countries.

Sure enough, as if it was the fuse, France was the first to stand up and firmly support New Zealand, claiming that the New France relations have a long history and that France cannot see New Zealand suffer any kind of harm. France will consider sending troops when necessary to help New Zealand solve this big problem.

At the same time, the French government suspended the lease negotiations on Corsica without any confidence, claiming that France has never signed a similar agreement in history. At least they have not found any trace of this agreement in historical information. They suspect that the Corsica lease agreement is completely a false thing made by Ji Feng, and it is purely just to deceive a French maritime pearl. There is no possibility of negotiations between France and its private territory. Unless Ji Feng voluntarily abandons this so-called agreement, France will forgive Ji Feng's fault.
