In his major speech to the Reichstag, Hitler speaks of his desire for peace with Britan and France. Hitler says that up to now he has done nothing more than correct the unjust Versailles Treaty and that he has no war aims against France or Britain. He blames warmongers like Churchill for the present state of affairs and calls for a European cofernence to meet to resolve the few remaining differences.

On 10 and 12 October Daladier and Chamberlain respectively reject the offer. Chamberlain says that to consider such terms would be to forgive Germany for all aggression.
