Chapter 91:
March 1, 1940
Budapest, the capital of Hungary
"Please make these peace negotiations break down."
The words that Lieutenant General Sikorski uttered were far beyond my expectations.
My brains, which had been spinning trying to predict what he would say, came to a screeching halt.
Break down the peace negotiations? What the hell does that mean? Is he saying he wants to be split in half and die by Germany and the Soviet Union?
Could the evidence the Abwehr brought be wrong? Was this man actually the craziest of them all? It's foreign evidence, so there could be a mistake.
Perhaps my facial expression was too obvious, as Lieutenant General Sikorski began to explain calmly.
“The current rulers of Poland, Rydz-Śmigły, and their supporting faction, the Sanation, as well as the Sejm members of the Upper House, are more concerned with protecting their own political lives than Poland's Fate.”
