Now Raeder, on 10 November ’45 stated his position in respect to this and, according to the next page of the document, he said that which Mr. Elwyn Jones has just put to you. May I ask you to look at it again? It says there, on Page—I thought it was at the top of Page 6, maybe it is at the top of Page 8...
SCHULTE-MÖNTING: The top of Page 8. I do not know English as well as German, but I would translate it: “If that which Japan needs...”
DR. SIEMERS: If I remember correctly, the word is “need.”
SCHULTE-MÖNTING: Yes, he uses the word “need”—“and other things, things that the Japanese need.”
DR. SIEMERS: That is to say, Japan’s needs and other things which Japan requires. Therefore, the conversations mentioned by Raeder were not concerned with strategic points?
SCHULTE-MÖNTING: No, these are two entirely different things.
DR. SIEMERS: So that Raeder’s answer is concerned purely with questions of supplies and material.
SCHULTE-MÖNTING: Yes, purely questions of supplies and material...
DR. SIEMERS: Thank you.
SCHULTE-MÖNTING: ...which we had with all the navies, not only with the Japanese.
