Speech
Debeauvais, Guieysse and Lainé spoke in turn after Marcel Planiol, the lawyer of the Breton National Party, had pointed out the claims to fame of each one. Mordrel proclaimed the "declaration of Pontivy", which specified that:
The Breton National Council, a body representative of Brittany, concerned with the collective good and of the honour of their people, will act at the hour chosen by it to create a Breton nation state, within its natural boundaries and the spirit of its traditions, so that it could live finally in organized nationality, free of its aspirations and mistress of its own interests ... the international statute of the Breton State, the nature of its relations with France and Germany would be defined by agreements, freely discussed within the framework of the possibilities offered by the new general conditions.
