Extrait

The Suez crisis of October-November 1956, in which were involved both the United Kingdom and France, marked a turning point in the trilateral relations including these two countries and the United States. This crisis was a confirmation of the decreasing influence of these two former, or almost, colonial countries on the rule of the world, and pushed them to re-evaluate their defence policies. This episode was the last which saw the United Kingdom acting militarily without the support, at least diplomatic, of the United States. The “special relationship” which was built since the Second World War between the two countries was severely damaged, and the aim of Harold Macmillan, who replaced Anthony Eden as British Prime Minister two months after the end of the crisis, was to strengthen this relationship. There was a huge necessity for Great Britain to get close again to the United States due to its security dependence upon the Americans, their nuclear cooperation and its will to play an important role in the NATO (Northern Atlantic Treaty Organization).
