France was occupied by Nazi forces in June 1940. It was divided into a German occupation zone in the north and west, and an apparently independent country in the south, which was called Vichy France. The new French state, headed by Henri Philippe Pétain, maintained a regime of cooperation with the Nazis, and maintained a passive and submissive policy, including cooperation in the extermination of Jews. The announcement before us came out as part of the completion of the steps of French collaboration with Nazi Germany.
