Shire was not actually interested in upholding justice and saving the world; he knew that the unchanging rule of international relations was interest.
However, if France wanted to become the "world police," it had to "love peace" and "champion justice" for other countries.
Only in this way could it gain the universal recognition of the international community, and only then would countries around the world possibly seek France's "mediation" in disputes.
And France could thus gain more and greater benefits in this "mediation" process.
Shire invited the British Minister of Military Supplies to the meeting because he knew the minister would be shortsighted and only consider immediate interests.
He would become a negative example in front of everyone, highlighting France's "justice" and "greatness" through Britain's ugliness and shortsightedness.
