Clemenceau understood Gallieni's thoughts; he always supported Shire.
Knowing this was enough; as long as Gallieni stood by Shire's side, no one could oppose them.
Clemenceau originally intended to end the conversation there, but then he asked with some concern, "Minister, France also has many colonies that provide important resources and wealth. Are you sure this won't affect France?"
It's not a problem to dismantle British colonies; this aligns with France's interests.
As the Prime Minister of France, Clemenceau had to stand firmly with France, even if he was not patriotic.
However.
Dismantling British colonies would also impact France's colonies.
Just like during the French Revolution, the anti-feudal movement spread rapidly from France to other European countries, leading to the rise of parliaments.
Gallieni hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply and asked rhetorically, "Do you think this is what we want?"
"We" included Shire.
