victorious. In just the last weeks more than a
hundred thousand German women of ages from
sixteen to eighty had been violated by the Russian
hordes. He simply could not understand Sweden’s
blindness in the face of the immense danger from
the East.

Bernadotte: “But Germany was allied to Russia
during part of this war. How does that fit in with
what you have just said?”
