Summary

Über Deutschland: Das Schicksal Deutschlands sei in völliges Dunkel gehüllt. Es hänge zu sehr von der Entwicklung der Weltereignisse ab, um mit einiger Gewißheit etwas voraussagen zu können. »Your question whether the United States could create a bulwark state against Russia out of Western Germany, or perhaps out of Germany as a whole, must be answered in the affirmative. However, the peace would not thereby be served, and it would not be the intention of those who establish such a Germany to thereby serve the peace.« Bittet S., diese Antworten als privat zu betrachten.
