Hitler, Speech to Reichstag, 1937 During recent years Germany has entered into quite a number of political agreements with other States. She has resumed former agreements and improved them. And I may say that she has established close friendly relations with a number of States.

Through a number of treaties which we have made, we have relieved many strained relations and thereby made a substantial contribution towards an improvement in European conditions.

Germany has steadily given its assurance, and I solemnly repeat this assurance here, that between ourselves and France, for example, there are no grounds for quarrel that are humanly thinkable.

To place this whole matter in its true light, I should like to call attention to the following bare facts: —
For many years the German people have been trying to make better commercial treaties with their neighbors

Germany has an enormous number of men who not only want to work but also to eat..

It is to be regretted that the British Government [were partly to blame for] the Treaty of Versailles... Through this division of Europe nobody suffered more than the German people.

[Another] division has been brought about by the proclamation of the Bolshevic [Communist] doctrine, an integral feature of which is that they do not confine it to one nation but try to impose it on all the nations…

The questions are:
what is Hitler saying about Germany?
what is Hitler saying about Britain?
what is Hitler saying about Communism?
