NAZI AIMS

DISSOLUTION OF SOVIET UNION PROPOSED “AUTONOMOUS” STATES. REVOLUTION IN REMAINING AREA. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON, June 24. The German radio today broadcast an article by Dr. Rosenberg, the Nazi cultural leader, stating that “a military victory over Russia will solve the problems of the many nationalities which the Bolsheviks have enslaved. The problem of Russia proper remains, but treacherous Moscow has forfeited her chance of keeping even the , old Russian territory in the future Russian State.” Other German propaganda proposes autonomy for Poland, the Ukraine, White Russia, and the Caucasus, and visualises a revolution in the remainder of the Soviet Union. The Free French agency says that Turkey has asked Germany to define her aims regarding Russia, particularly the territories in the Caucasus. The Istanbul correspondent of “The Times”'says that whatever the official attitude may be, the Turkish people s suspicion of Russian designs against Turkey has undoubtedly revived, and the public feeling today, if not proGerman, is certainly overwhelmingly anti-Russian. It is also reported from Istanbul that the British Ambassador, who was spending the weekend there, left hurriedly during the night, for Ankara. He had been invited by the Turkish Foreign Minister to see him today.
