If I understand this letter correctly, it is the covering letter attached to Stern's offer by the Germans when they forwarded it from Istanbul to Ankara (Jan 1941).

Hmmm, no it looks to be addressed from Istanbul to Ankara. --Zero0000 10:21, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Sehr geehrter Herr Botschafter!
         in der Anlage übersende ich Ihnen:
1.) einen Brief, den der Chef der Sureté Général in Syrien
Colombani an den General Dentz gerichtet hat. Roser teilt
mit, dass auf Grund dieses Briefes anscheinend eine weitere
Unterredung zwischen Colombani und Dentz stattgefunden hat.
C. ist der Ansicht, dass seine Zurückberufung durch die Zu-
sammenarbeit von F. Gentz (H.C.) und dem Minister Pxxx
begründet ist.
2.) eine Verfügung betr. Demobilmachung, die von den franzö-
sischen Militärbehörden in Syrien bei den Truppenteilen in
Umlauf gesetzt worden ist.
3.) einen Vorschlag der Nationalen Militärorganisation in
 Palästina zur Lösung der jüdischen Frage in Europa.
   Mit einer Empfehlung
      bin ich Ihr ergebener 
        Ralf von der Marwitz [1]

To the Right Honourable Ambassador!
         as attachment I send you:
1.) a letter, which the chief of general security in Syria
Colombani sent to General Dertz. Roser communicates, 
that because of this letter apparently a further
meeting between Colombani and Dertz took place.
C. holds the opinion, that his call-back has been caused by
the co-operation of F. [Goirtz?] (H.C.) and the minister "xxxx".
2.) an order related to demobilisation, which has been sent
by the French military in Syria to its units.
3.) a proposal of the National Military Organisation in
Palestine regarding the solution of the Jewish question in Europe.
   With regards
       I am your loyal and devoted
