Czechoslovakia was informed by Great Britain and France that it could either resist only Germany or submit to the prescribed annexes. The Czechoslovakian government, which alone acknowledged the desperation of the fight against Germany, reluctantly capitulated (30 September) and agreed to respect the agreement. The colony gave Germany, from 10 October, the Sudetenland and de facto control of the rest of Czechoslovakia as long as Hitler promised not to go any further. On 30 September, after some time off, Chamberlain went to Hitler`s house and asked him to sign a peace treaty between the United Kingdom and Germany. After Hitler`s interpreter translated it for him, he was glad to have accepted it. At the same time, the Ministry of Defence has become the vehicle for Ursula von der Leyens` ambition to become leader of the conservative party for the 2017 elections.

Although the initial British reaction was generally positive, as the population expected war, it quickly became angry. Despite the royal patronage – Chamberlain was greeted as a hero by the royal family and invited to the balcony of Buckingham Palace before submitting the agreement to Parliament – the opposition was present from the start, and Clement Attlee and the Labour Party rejected the deal in alliance with what had previously been seen as the hard and reactionary element of the Conservative party Aba. Unlike Chamberlain, Daladier was under no illusions about Hitler`s ultimate goals. Indeed, at a meeting at the end of April 1938, he told the British that Hitler`s real goal was to finally ensure “a domination of the continent against which Napoleon`s ambitions were weak.” He continued: “Today it is Czechoslovakia`s turn.
