| LETTER OF DEFENDANT KUGLER CONCERNING DEVELOPMENTS IN THE
NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE FRENCH, 18 FEBRUARY 1941 |
| |
| 18 February 1941 |
Dr. Hans Kramer
Army Postal No. 06661
Dear Dr. Kramer,
Unfortunately, we had no chance to talk to each other during your last
stay at Frankfurt. Your report of 14 February got here this morning via Berlin.
Director Otto had already conveyed the contents to Dr. von Schnitzler (by
telephone yesterday), so that in our usual Monday discussion we could discuss
the present state of affairs. For your private information, we have, in any
event, set aside the week beginning 10 March for a trip to Paris. Whether the
trip will take place, will now depend on whether M. Blanchard intervenes at
Vichy, and whether Vichy will grant its approval for a German majority
participation. Your attitude toward the French group which you have shown in
the present interim stage, was, by the way, approved in all respects. Let us
hope, therefore, not only from a business angle, but also to a certain extent
from a private angle, that the Paris trip can take place at the beginning of
March. |
