English Translation
64 - 5 It is clear that with the establishment of the protectorate the Czech problem does not have its final form. Rather, it is only with this that the beginning of a process has been initiated. (Ueber Tendition und Ziel sibhe unter D) The war has had a strong impact on this process. On the one hand speeding up, insofar as the empire has achieved a dominant position in unmatched terms in an unprecedented time and thus a large part of the foreign policy considerations of A March 39. In so far as the necessity of the contribution of the protectorate to the essential services of war (production battle, munitions production, the functioning of trade and transport) hinders the approach of the Volkische Prohleme which inevitably cause temporary disturbances in this area, for the duration of the war. As a result, the Reichssptotektor today is a political standstill commissioner over Moentapon, the Czech, who basically conducts a purely administrative activity on the status quo. C From what has been said it is already clear that we affirm the inclusion of the Protectorate in the Grnxxxnkikix overall political dynamics and find that the current standstill policy cannot be the political permanent state in Bohemia and Moravia. We will have to step out of the passive position one day (not too far away) and include this space and the Czech people in the overall planning of the Reich.
