Recovery of the Weimar Successes abroad

The Locarno act In 1925 Germany signed the Locarno pact with Britain, Belgium, France and Italy. According to the agreement countries agreed to keep existing borders between Germany, Belgium and France.

Main Representatives Germany Gustav Stresemann France Aristide Briand Belgium Émile Vandervelde Britain Austen Chamberlain Italy Benito Mussolini The most important figures in the treaty: Gustav Stresemann and Aristide Briand. Stresemann sent out the proposal of the Locarno Treaty on 9 February to the other nations. For several months neither Britain nor France responded to these proposals. Aristide Briand, the new French foreign minister, first urged that they should meet with Germany in spring of 1925.

Terms of the Treaty Belgium, France & Germany promised to respect their joint frontiers Ultimate cession of Alsace-Lorraine Demilitarization of the left bank of the Rhine Britain and Italy acted as the guarantors Germany allowed to enter the League of Nations In case of Germany's occupation of the demilitarized zone military action might be taken in response Belgium, France and Germany accepted western borders of Germany including the demilitarized zone in the Rhineland ‘Flagrant’ breaches of the treaty, by either France, or Belgium or Germany, would require Britain and Italy to intervene Germany agreed to sign arbitration treaties with Poland and Czechoslovakia, committing itself to settle disputes with her eastern neighbors peacefully.

The Locarno act This Pact marked Germany’s return to the European international scene and began a period of co-operation between Germany, France, Britain

Exam question 1

The League of Nations The League of Nations was established in 1920; it’s purpose was to try and maintain peace Germany became a member of the League of Nations following the Locarno Pact This brought considerable prestige to Stresemann and helped Germany to negotiate the Young Plan

The Kellogg-Briand Pact In 1928 Germany signed the Kellogg-Briand Pact along with 64 other nations. It was agreed that they would keep their armies for self defence and solve all international disputes ‘by peaceful means’.

Further successes In 1925 France withdrew from the Ruhr In 1927 Allied troops withdrew from the west bank of the Rhine, five years before the original schedule of 1933

Exam question 5 ‘By 1929 the Weimar Republic had overcome its early problems and become firmly established in Germany.’ To what extent do you agree with this interpretation?
