6 March 1946 the suggested attack on Singapore. Now, with respect to MATSUOKA, I have before me a record of his conversation with Ribbentrop in Berlin on March 29, 1941, and at one point in this record these words appear: “MATSUOKA then introduced the subject of German assistance in the blow against Singapore, a subject which had been broached to him frequently, and mentioned the proposal of a German written promise of assistance. The RAM 6 replied that he had already discussed these questions with Ambassador OSHIMA. He had asked him to procure maps of Singapore in order that the Fuehrer - who probably must be considered the greatest expert on military questions at the present time - could advise Japan on the best method of attack against Singapore.” Now, General, I want you to think about that tonight and I want you to think of the occasion when Ribbentrop had already discussed these questions with you, and when we come back tomorrow I will expect a detailed story from you relative to those discussions. 6 Ribbentrop 191
