The Arican ambassador was trembling with anger at what von Kidren Wachter said. It was their people who died, and their rchant ships were also detained. It turned out they were wrong.
"Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, your country is making unreasonable words. Arican rchant ships sail freely on the high seas. Your country's unauthorized designation of no-sail zone is a violation of freedom of navigation. The US governnt will never recognize your delineated no-sail zone. Yes." The Arican ambassador was furious.
"Your Excellency, whether you admit it or not is up to you. Anyway, Germany just needs to approve it!" Von Kidren Waschter replied arrogantly. Regardless of whether the United States admits it or not, as long as ships from other countries break into the restricted area, the German navy will detain the ships. This is the answer of the German governnt.
The attitude of the German governnt made the Arican ambassador very angry. At the sa ti, I also know that the attitude of the Germans this ti may be quite tough. It is almost impossible to get the Germans to make concessions through diplomatic efforts.
"Your Excellency, in addition, I have to remind you and your country. On your rchant ships, many war supplies that the empire has explicitly banned from being transported to the UK were found. The empire can completely understand this as your country is supporting Britain is fighting against the empire. If the empire continues to pursue, it can even regard your country as a hostile country to the empire. Therefore, we hope that your country can stop such behavior. Otherwise, the relationship between our two countries will be inevitable affected." Von Kidren Wachter continued.
"Your Excellency, the foreign minister, our businessn are just conducting normal overseas trade. Your country is destroying trade freedom!" The Arican ambassador now doesn't know what to say.
"Your Excellency, if you insist on making excuses, then I can't do anything about it. However, I can tell you very clearly that since the no-fly zone has been demarcated, we will strictly enforce it before the end of the war. Any challenge, we will all defeat it." Von Kidren Wachter's attitude was very resolute.
"Your Excellency, Minister of Foreign Affairs, you are bullying the weak. The United States is not a weak country, and we will not let go of any behavior that violates the interests of the Arican Republic!" The attitude of the Arican ambassador is also very tough.
Under the circumstance that the attitudes of both sides are very tough, this eting is dood to be the result of an unhappy breakup. The Aricans will not compromise easily. Similarly, after Germany has delineated a no-fly zone, it will not be easily revoked. Unless the war is over, otherwise, the no-fly zone will continue to be implented. The German navy will also always detain rchant ships from other countries that break into the no-sail zone.
After receiving the report from the ambassador to Germany, the U.S. governnt beca even more furious.
"Damn the Germans, they deceive people too much! Don't they think that the world is really invincible?" President Woodrow Wilson was furious. In his view, Germany's behavior is a complete violation of their national sovereignty and an act of war.
"Your Excellency, the behavior of the Germans is really bad. Moreover, their attitude is also unacceptable. The Arican Republic can no longer tolerate it. Otherwise, the Germans will be even more unscrupulous. The people in the country, They will also oppose us. Those guys in the Republican Party are even more looking forward to driving us out!" Secretary of State Bryan said.
"Everyone, what should we do about this incident?" President Woodrow Wilson asked.
"Your Excellency, we need to show the Germans that we are tough! Let them know that this ti the United States of Arica will not back down. Unless they apologize to us and release the seized ships and pay us for our losses. Otherwise , we will never let it go!" War Secretary Garrison said.
"However, will that make the Germans misjudge that we are preparing to join the Allied Powers? If this leads to the Germans declaring war on us, then the problem may be serious." Vice President Marshall said.
The current war situation is very unfavorable to the Allies. Even the Aricans dare not assert that if they join the Allied Powers, they will definitely reverse the situation of the war. This also makes the US governnt no longer want to be involved in the war. Of course, if Britain and France can resist the German attack, stabilize the line of defense, and even make the war situation develop in their favor, the United States will inevitably join their side to fight.
"Your Excellency, I think we can properly show a tough attitude. However, we must not be involved in a war. If a war breaks out, the U.S. Navy may not be able to withstand the Germans. Our east coast will suffer from the Germans. threat," Secretary of the Navy Daniels said.
Although, such an answer is hard to accept. But President Woodrow Wilson knew that was the truth. The United States now has a strong industry, but its military strength is too weak. Moreover, what is even more terrible is that military strength cannot be improved in a short period of ti. Especially for the navy, the construction cycle of their warships is often as long as two or three years. Although the U.S. Navy has begun to build a new batch of warships. However, when these warships are in service, the war may be over.
President Woodrow Wilson nodded, avoiding getting involved in the war as much as possible, which is also very necessary for the United States. After all, with their current strength, they are still unable to confront Germany.
"Your Excellency, I suggest that we send a fleet to **** our rchant ships. In this way, we can undoubtedly show our attitude. If the Germans back down, then our rchant ships can undoubtedly ignore their embargo. If the Germans are still tough, then we have to think more carefully." Minister Daniels said.
"What's your opinion?" Woodrow Wilson asked.
"Your Excellency, Minister Daniels' suggestion is very good. In that case, we will not only show our attitude, but at the sa ti, we will not go to war with the Germans. We also have an explanation for the people in the country." Secretary of State Bryan also said.
He ant very clearly that if Germany continues to be tough, then they can only back down. The dostic people can also understand, who made their military power so poor? In that case, they would also have good reason to expand their armants.
Other cabinet ministers did not object.
Therefore, President Woodrow Wilson issued an order requesting the U.S. Navy to send a powerful fleet to **** U.S. rchant ships, thereby expressing the attitude of the U.S. governnt.
