THE PRESIDENT: You can put the document to the witness, if you want.
GEN. RUDENKO: I have no German text. I have it in English and in Russian. I just received this document. It is dated 19 March, and I will submit it to the Tribunal as conclusive evidence to prove this fact.
THE PRESIDENT: I do not think this is the appropriate time to put in documents in that way.
Very well, you can put in the document now if you like.
GEN. RUDENKO: Thank you, Mr. President.
THE PRESIDENT: It must be translated into German, of course.
GEN. RUDENKO: I have no German translation of this document.
THE PRESIDENT: It has to be translated into German in order that defendant’s counsel may see it.
GEN. RUDENKO: We will do that without fail.
DR. STAHMER: Mr. President, may I ask to have the document read now? It is only a short memorandum; so we can hear immediately what it contains.
