Government in London has announced in a yete published statement that they have decided on political and economic cooperation for the post-war period.The hope has been expressed that the two governments will join xxx other European governments. The explanation is: "Fulfilled by the unshakeable belief that the Kampg, now of the brit. People and their allies are led against German violence, will end with the final defeat of the forces of evil and destruction, and firmly convinced that order in the world must build on mutual cooperation in all fields, consider it the Polish and the provisional csl. Government is necessary to solemnly declare that both governments once and for all consider the mutual accusations and disputes to be over. Both governments are determined, after the end of the war as independent and sovereign states, to come to a close political and economic summation work, which is to form the basis for a new order in Central Europe. Both governments express the hope that other nations of the European continent will join this cooperation, which is based on the democracy and dignity of humanity. Both governments have decided to work closely together to defend the common interests and prepare for the future relationship between the two countries. Since the National Socialist rulers have become aware of the coming of their defeat, they have expressed their intentions for peace with a lot of effort and call themselves the founders of a new European origin. This is a cynical farce, whose sole aim is to carry out raw and unfounded acts of aggression on Deutschlani's peaceful Nachbern and to plunder them. Hypocrisy becomes quite clear in the efforts to destroy our two venerable nations, which have contributed so much to the common good and to the culture of delicacy. The violence and cruelty to which these peoples are subjected, the expulsion of the population sown for centuries, the deportation of hundreds of thousands of men and women to Deytschland for the performance of forced labour, the mass executions and concentration camps, the robbery of public and private property, the extermination of all the spiritual and every manifestation of cultural life, the destruction of economic and cultural values and the persecution of all religions stand only in the history of humanity. They show the aims and methods of the new Germanic order. The two governments address the urgent appeal to all peoples who are not under the German rule, they may join the countries that have come together for the liberation of all countries and for the release of the world from this terrible disaster 2
