6a Hungarian charity efforts. Hungary had organized a kind of winter aid for year=ten, and Frau v. Horthy be= actively worked to finance this charity. From Aryan circles the contributions flowed only sparsely. The rich Jews showed themselves from the beginning as benefactors as Mrs v.Horthy spoke to them personally. Ms. v.Horthy praised her husband for the charity, especially the ju- rse de a r e dedd dr, which gave this Jewy orders, titles and appointments out of gratitude. Finally, she also linked these Jews to her husband.- Thus, over the course of two decades, the anti-Semite became a philosemite, and so the whole politics of Hungary was increasingly influenced by a fantastic Jewish work in a German-enemy way. We must keep this development in mind in order to be able to properly assess the events of the recent past. When we arrived in Hungary on 18 March 44, we were certainly greeted with joy by most of the Hungarians. We had the opportunity to drop Mr. v.Horthy or win Mr. V. Horthy for us. We did not have a third possibility for 64994. We wanted to prevent Mr. v. Horthy's resignation from foreign policy points. We therefore concluded a rather lame comptromis with Horthi and, satisfied with a weak coalition cabinet. I was like this. Everyone had to be clear, however, that un=sere politics in Hungary would become untenable if we could not bring a right-wing cabinet to the helm in a very short time. We had to realise that a weak government of Sztojay was to be played out in a short time by Germany's weak enemies, especially Count Bethlen. In spite of all this, it was a surprise that we were played out quickly together with the Sztojay government, and it seemed almost tragicomic, as we exchanged Sztoya's government with a cabinet of Laka-tos with a rare inadvertent. Lakato's Government was unacceptable to our foreign policy from the very beginning.
