English Translation

60 Neither the Trans-Venetian monarchy of the Habsburgs nor the November Republic were able to stop it. Even after the establishment of the protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, this continued will of the Czech people to preserve the people remained unbroken. As a result of the loss of statehood, the Czechs were forced to choose other forms of struggle adapted to the new situation. We have nothing to do with this will of the Czechs, especially since the German popular policy does not move by any means on a large planned line through a central body, but under old, overriding administrative responsibility and competence.
