Question
Answer the following question.
State the Aims of Hitler’S Foreign Policy and His Plans to Fulfil Those Aims.
Solution
Hitler wanted to make Germany into a great power.
He aimed to achieve this by :
- destroying the hated Versailles settlement;
- building up a strong army;
- reclaiming lost territories such as the Saar and the Polish Corridor; and
- bringing together all the Germans inside the Reich, which would involve annexing Austria, and capturing territories from Czechoslovakia and Poland, both of which had large German minorities because of the peace settlement.
Some historians, however, believed that Hitler aimed to achieve more than this. It was his aim to take over entire Poland and Czechoslovakia and then occupy Russia, as far east as the Ural Mountains. This was supposed to help Hitler to achieve Lebensraum to provide food for the German people, and area for the German supposed to people to settle down. This was also destroyed communism.
