English Translation
ma L in Prague, 17 June 1943. Yes./p. 03 19.. 13 G Memorial Protocol. 5.1.43. Beginning of 1943 (the genaw date could be determined by Dr. Urban) a meeting between the State Secretary 4-Group Leader Brank and Consul General Genlach was held in the service room of which I was present. The discussion focused on the delaying tactics of the Federal Foreign Office in matters of the Hájek Book by Dr. Urban. Consul General Gerlach explained that he was going to Berlin the next day to discuss the matter again in the Foreign Office - my memory Cobe with envoy Schmidt - and at least obtain permission for a Czech delegation to the Urban Book. In addition, Consul General Gerlach made it binding in the discussion that the - e gcoed office in the Prague archive of the former Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs only had interest for the duration of the war / e √ and after the war this could be handed over to the Reichsprotektor at the sole disposal 7E/ 6.43. The Berlin debate by Consul General Gerlach was positive in the sense of the agreements made. The Czech edition of the Urban Book was approved. As I learned by i group leader Frank or Dr. Urban, the only time-related interest of the AA in the Prague Archive for the duration of the war was once again noted. As I recall, the archive, currently under the management of Dr. Urban, not only contains records of the former Czech Foreign Minister, but also those from the former Benesch-Villa near Tabor. Even today, only the Reichsprotektor is entitled to make provision, so that even now, even in the case of publications, the approval of the AA should not be required. Dr. ürban can certainly already draw a clear separation and inventory by spatial separation of both files today. barati 4-Obersturmbannführer
