Кому: Vadimovich, #2

Известное изречение Трумэна, которое он сделал через несколько дней после нападения гитлеровской Германии на Советский Союз, опубликованное в газете «Нью Йорк Таймс» от 24 июня 1941 года:

"Если мы увидим, что побеждает Германия, мы должны помочь России, если побеждает Россия, мы должны помочь Германии и, таким образом, позволить им убивать как можно больше, хотя я не хочу, чтобы Гитлер победил ни при каких обстоятельствах. Никто из них не задумывается о своем обещанном слове "


Оригинал: англ. If we see that Germany wins, we should help Russia, if Russia wins, we should help Germany, and so let them kill as much as possible, although I do not want to see Hitl er victorious under any circumstance. Neither of them think anythink of their pledget word .

Thrive Into Russia Is Termed "Treacherous" – Aid to Soviet Is Held Sure if It Asks

Special to The New York Times

WASHINGTON, June 23 – Condemning communism and nazism as "intolerable" to the people of the United States, but still viewing the defeat of Reichsfuehrer Hitler's attempt at conquest as the greatest task facing the world, the United States Government gave Soviet Russia ground for hope today for material assistance in her war against Germany.

Senator Harry Truman, Democrat, of Missouri, suggested that the United States helps whichever side seemed to be losing.[ой]


"If we see that Germany is winning we ought to help Russia and if Russia is winning we ought to help Germany and that way let them kill as many us possible, although I don't want to see Hitler victorious under any circumstances. Neither of them think anything of their pledged word." [ой]
