“I am speaking to you from the Cabinet Room at 10 Downing Street. This morning the British Ambassador in Berlin handed the German Government an official note stating that unless we heard from them by eleven o'clock, that they were prepared at once to withdraw their troops from Poland, a state of war would exist between us. I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has been received, and consequently this country is at war with Germany.” Has BeensWarCountryStatesGovernmentRoomsHistoryMorningHeardStreetsNotesPreparedBritishClockOfficialsGermanyTroopsElevenBerlinCountyCabinetsUndertakingsAmbassadorsPolandBritish HistoryDowningDowning Street Author:Neville Chamberlain
“In the event of any action which clearly threatened Polish independence and which the Polish Government accordingly considered it vital to resist with their national forces, His Majesty's Government would feel themselves bound at once to lend the Polish Government all support in their power.

I may add that the French Government have authorized me to make it plain that they stand in the same position in this matter.” WorldFeelsMayWarMatterGovernmentActionGivenForceSupportEffectsEventsPositionIndependenceAddBoundsWar Of The WorldsThreatenedAssuranceMajestyPolishWorld War 2 Author:Neville Chamberlain
