Violation of Convention of Arbitration and Conciliation entered into
between Germany and the Netherlands on 20 May 1926.
Particulars:
In that Germany, without warning, and notwithstanding its solemn
covenant to settle by peaceful means all disputes of any nature whatever
which might arise between it and the Netherlands which were not capable
of settlement by diplomacy and which had not been referred by mutual
agreement to the Permanent Court of International Justice, did, on or
about 10 May 1940, with a military force, attack, invade, and occupy the
Netherlands, thereby violating its neutrality and territorial integrity
and destroying its sovereign independence.
