Telegram nº 125 from the Portuguese Legation in Budapest to the MNE saying “racial problem enters critical stage. German authorities will only allow Hungary Semites benefited by measures mentioned in my tel. 116, if Hungarian Government encourages deportation of the remainder to labor camp in Germany. Such imposition led Hungarian Government to greatly multiply number of benefited persons, some of whom will emigrate mainly to Palestine and another part will form part of concentration camp in Hungary”.
