Snore of Latvia asks, , if ‘Gestapo’ Mueller brokered a secret deal between the KGB and SS in 1938
Photo shows: Heinrich Müller at far right with (right to left) Heydrich, Himmler, Nebe, discussing the bomb attempt on Hitler, Nov 1939.
Was there a secret Gestapo – KGB agreement in 1938?
I AM the author of a documentary film about Communist crimes, which is now being filmed on the commission of the
UEN Group in the European Parliament.
Among other topics, our film will deal with NKVD-SS collaboration (1938-1940).
[A questionable Heinrich Mueller signature]Such historians as Norman Davies, Natalia Lebedeva, Victor
Suvorov (writer) will describe the practical side of this collaboration. In addition to that we will show a
“General Agreement on Co-operation between NKVD and Gestapo” (signed in Moscow on Nov 11, 1938), which was smuggled out by a worker of the Presidential Archive in Moscow.
It is clear that this is a highly controversial document.
Both given its contents and the date it was signed.
The official Russian historians have called it a fake document.
Nevertheless we will show it, because we do not think it is fake. The repeated signatures of NKVD Chief Lavrenti
Beria (both in ink and in pencil, together with his hand-written comments) and of “Gestapo” Müller seem to be original. In adition the package contains a letter authorizating Müller to sign such agreement in Moscow.
The letter is signed by Heydrich.
All documents are properly archived, containing stamps and signatures of the Soviet officials, who prepared them (Beria’s co-worker Mamulov among them).
Given your extensive knowledge of the pre-war Germany, I would appreciate your advice in helping us to establish the following two points:
the fact that Gestapo Müller was in the USSR in
1930s.
Such statement was made in a documentary film
“Gestapo” (1990) author: Alisdair Simpson ;
director: Michael Campbell. The film stated that
after becoming Gestapo chief, Müller, being a
Soviet-expert, visited USSR and learned from NKVD.
However, we were unable to find confirmation of such fact
in literature.
that in November 11, 1938 Müller was not in
Germany.
Russian authors (http://www.kp.ru/daily/23921.4/69012/) point to “a number of documents” signed by Müller in the process of summing up the Kristallnacht actions (Nov
9-10). Therefore, on Nov 12 Müller could not have physically been in Moscow.
This is a strong argument. Assuming, of course, that such documents (from Nov 11) signed by Müller exist. We were unable to find them. The only document I found was from Nov
9:

Do you know of any documents signed by Gestapo
Müller from Nov 10 to Nov 12, 1938? We would really be grateful for your assistance.
