VON RIBBENTROP: So far as I can see, this telegram apparently deals with
the fact that Austrian and German Jews are to be repatriated to Austria
and Germany from France. I do not know that. This is the first time I
have seen this telegram, and I can give no information about it. It
probably represents one of the routine measures dealt with by the
Foreign Office in the course of the day’s work, but which were not
submitted to me; and apart from that, these matters were individually
dealt with by other departments, not by us.
M. FAURE: If you will look on the left-hand side of the telegram, you
will see the distribution list. There were 19, including you, were there
not? You were Number 2.
VON RIBBENTROP: I should like to inform the French prosecutor that every
day four, five, six, or eight hundred such documents and telegrams
reached my office, of which only 1 or 2 percent were submitted to me.
