German war aims reveal plan to reshape Europe
A clipping from the New York Times outlines a memorandum attributed to Foreign Minister von Ribbentrop. It details German aims to erase Switzerland and the Baltic states, partition Belgium and France, and dominate large areas of Europe with a 1941 spring push into the Balkans and toward Russia. It predicts upheaval across Ukraine and the Baltic regions, with Italy gaining Trieste and Africa-wide reach, leaving Britain as the lone barrier.
