English Translation
26.9.1944 39 Report on the situation in Ung a r n A right-wing economic politician, Minister A.D., stated on September 1 to the reporter at the time of his arrival that there was no uniform formation of will within the government and leadership. The slogan "Save who can" is the motto and everyone makes politics after the moto, how can I best save myself. This was the state of development in the week of 10,-l6.9. At the end of this week a decisive meeting of the Crown Council took place. As a result of Finland's waste and development in Romania and Bulgaria, Horthys and the latter themselves tried to make a decision in the sense that Hungary would come out of the war under all circumstances, only the two ministers Gyulay /Industry Minister and Markos /Trade Minister/ and according to another information also Rakovsky /Cultus Minister/ considered Horthy to have expressed strong concerns about the other ministers. The indirect contact with the English is said to have resulted in the official notification that the Hungarians have agreed with Moscow, which resulted in agreement within the government to persevere. It is clear to the Hungarians that, according to the Teheran Protocol, they fall within the Russian sphere of influence, and this circumstance is also due to the obvious attitude. The same source is the communication that Hungary has to provide Russia with about 3 million workers in the event of the capitulation. According to Teheran agreements, the approximately fallen 3OM million Russians are supposed to be replaced by workers from the defeated countries. Germany allegedly accounts for 10 million/. Bt+/-g1
