1949 – Tome I (1er janvier – 30 juin)

Series:

Edited By Ministère des Affaires étrangères

Une grande affaire du premier semestre 1949 est le Pacte atlantique. Parallèlement la mise sur pied de l’Allemagne occidentale bat son plein, autour de la question de la « Loi fondamentale » de la future RFA. Les deux dossiers sont étroitement liés ; la France doit définitivement revoir sa politique allemande, mais on admet désormais que la priorité, c’est la résistance face à l’URSS  ; il faut empêcher celle-ci d’utiliser l’Allemagne. Le but n’est plus de morceler l’Allemagne, mais de l’incorporer dans un système de sécurité occidental.
Autre grand souci : l’Indochine. On suit les négociations complexes avec l’empereur Bao Dai. On parvient cependant aux accords du 8 mars 1949. Paris se montre très restrictif et frileux. Mais on s’inquiète des répercussions en Indochine de la défaite de Tchang Kai Tchek face aux communistes chinois. Cependant les États-Unis commencent, en raison de cette inquiétude, à mieux comprendre la position française à l’égard du problème indochinois. Décidément la politique extérieure française entre dans une nouvelle phase.

1. – Mr. Acheson has given careful consideration to the information conveyed by Mr. Malik to Mr. Jessup on April 10 including the views expressed by Mr. Vychinski. In accordance with the position indicated by Mr. Jessup to Mr. Malik on April 5, Mr. Acheson has informed Mr. Bevin and Mr. Schuman.

2. – Before proceeding with any formal discussion of arrangements regarding the simultaneous lifting of the restrictions on communications, transportation and trade and a meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers, it is necessary to have a clear understanding on certain points which have arisen in the several informal conversations between Mr. Malik and Mr. Jessup.

3. – With regard to the lifting of the restrictions, it would need to be clearly understood that the restrictions to be removed are those imposed since March 1, 1948, on the one hand by the government of the Soviet Union on communications, transportation and trade between Berlin and the Western zones of Germany, and on the other hand by any one of the four powers on communications, transportation and trade between the western and eastern zones of Germany.
