ringen og den hemmelige Efterretningstjeneste og jeg maatte naturligvis over for dette og nogle Medlemmer af Regeringen berette om alle Oplevelser vi havde haft i København og især om Dit og Weizsäckers og Jensens Besøg der gav Anledning til indgaaende Drøftelser om hvad Slutninger, der kunde drages om Oplysninger, der blev givet under Samtalerne og deres Sammenligning med alle Underretningsvæsnet havde kunnet fremskaffe. Det Punkt, som under disse Drøftelser blev fremdraget og som især alle senere Forespørgsler har drejet sig om var om hvorledes Besøget var arrangeret og hvad Formaal, der laa bag idet man især har undret sig over, hvorledes og med hvilken Bemyndigelse saa farlig en Sag af saa stor politisk Betydning kunde berøres overfor nogen i et besat og fjendtligt indstillet Land.

ment and the secret intelligence service, and naturally I had to tell the latter and some members of the government about all the experiences we had had in Copenhagen and in particular about the visits by you and Weizsäcker and Jensen, which gave rise to thorough discussions about the conclusions which could be drawn about the information given during the conversations and their comparison with everything that the intelligence service had been able to obtain. The point which was put forward during these discussions, and with which all later enquiries have been particularly concerned, was how the visit had been arranged and what purpose lay behind it, as one has wondered in particular how and with what authorization such a dangerous matter, of such great political importance, could be taken up with someone in an occupied and hostile country.
