France to send delegate to Polish Lublin regime rulers
Paris reports the French government will appoint a delegate to the Polish Lublin committee to arrange repatriation of French escapes from the Nazis. The Foreign Office notes Polish territories under Soviet advance are effectively governed by the Lublin regime and highlights growing Soviet liberations of French prisoners. About 1500 Alsatians have been repatriated by Augsburg in France, having been drafted into the German army. Recognition of the Lublin committee as Poland’s government was discussed during talks between Gen de Gaulle and Premier Stalin in Moscow. French resistance calls for recognizing the Lublin regime over the exiled London government.
