Summary/Abstract: The text traces Saudek’s activities during his stay in the Netherlands, from 1915 to 1921. For most of this period Saudek cooperated with the Austro-Hungarian embassy in The Hague and ran his own correspondence office. At the same time, he worked for the Hollandsch Nieuwsbureau (HNB), an outwardly neutral news agency founded with considerable help of the German embassy in The Hague. Robert Saudek succeeded in convincing the diplomats in The Hague and the Viennese authorities that he was the real owner of the HNB agency.
