SS-Obergruppenführer Reinhard Heydrich
The effect of the assassination was great. Everyone was stopped by streams of blood that the Germans shed, but it was these that caused Britain to annul the Munich Agreement. After this bloodshed, no one could have imagined that the Czechs and Germans could live peacefully in one state, and this has an effect, for example, on the post-war expulsion of the Germans. The assassination of Lidice and Ležáky affected the whole world opinion, a wave of sympathy arose for our entire nation. In this respect, I must evaluate the assassination unequivocally positively. Heydrich was a criminal who received a well-deserved punishment.
