Stosunki polsko-ukraińskie w ocenie konsulatu niemieckiego we Lwowie w 1939 roku
The assessment of the Polish-Ukrainian relations by the German consulate in Lviv in 1939

Summary/Abstract: The German authorities strove to establish a consulate in Lviv almost from the beginning of the establishment of the diplomatic relations with Poland. Those intentions were opposed by the apprehensions of Polish side which feared that the establishment of the German consulate in this city would lead to an opening of the good relations between Germans and Ukrainians hostile-minded towards Poland. The German plan returned after the Anschluss of Austria in March 1938. Austria had the honorary consulate in the city which was taken over by the Third Reich in 1939. After some hesitation Polish government gave its assent to establish a German consulate in Lviv in June 1938 which had its jurisdiction over Voivodeships: Lwów, Tarnopol and Stanisławów.
