"A Balkan front against, the Axis will become a distinct probability if the United Nations are able to smash Rommel. “Diplomats in Turkey have learned that King Boris is increasingly -nervous about Bulgaria’s future, and is preparing the way for an about-faee in favour of the United Nations, but whether the Allies would accept Boris’s offer is another question.
