I then proceeded to specify my stipulations. I
said that I was prepared to go to Eisenhower’s
headquarters on the following conditions:
1. There must be an announcement by
Himmler that Hitler—compelled by illness to give up
his powers—had chosen him to be the leader of
the German people.
2. Himmler must declare the National
Socialist Party dissolved and remove all Party
officials.
3. Himmler must order the activity of the
so-called Werewolves to cease.
4. Before my departure I must have
confirmation from Friedrichsruh that orders had been
given for the dispatch to Sweden of all Danish
and Norwegian prisoners.
The acceptance and fulfillment of these
conditions meant a revolution in Germany. They meant
that Himmler would depose Hitler, dissolve the
National Socialist Party, and put an end to the
Third Reich. Personally, I never imagined
Himmler would accept them. But Schellenberg
did not hesitate. He told me that he would try to
induce his chief to accept them.
