What was the battle of France to recover St. Pierre Island and Miquelon Island in the United States during World War II?
The incident of Saint Pierre-Miquelon Island aroused great concern in the world at that time. In fact, the essence is the conflict between France and the United States, and the fuse of the conflict is the conflict of policy differences caused by the neutrality of the United States to the French people. It should be said that Charles de Gaulle of France cannot accept the partial neutrality policy of the United States.

In fact, this occupation has brought a lot of unnecessary troubles to the United States and also led to tension with the United States. That is, the relationship between the United States and the petain government has been damaged.

At that time, the American Secretary of State was Hull, who attached great importance to this matter and strongly urged France to withdraw from St. Pierre and Clone Island. In addition, it has been exerting various pressures on the then president. Make it clear that if the president doesn't support him, he will definitely resign. The president also faced fierce domestic remarks every day because of this period of time.

As for the neutrality of the United States, the details are that the United States concluded a neutrality treaty with France in the French West Indies, but this agreement excluded not only Germany, but also Charles de Gaulle of France. This agreement was reached on the premise that the United States assured Admiral Robert that the status quo of French colonies in America would be maintained in exchange for the neutrality of the French fleet in Martinique.

In addition, there was another thing at that time, that is,1944,65438+10. On October 20th, a top secret document "Why can't we recruit General De Gaulle" was drafted by military experts in China with ulterior motives. It is emphasized that "the main dispute between our government and General de Gaulle began with the events of Saint Pierre and Miquelon Island". It was this fuse that finally led to Charles de Gaulle's doomed stepping down after the war.
