Nisko Plan - Suspension and Abandonment of The Reservation

Suspension and Abandonment of The Reservation

On 23 March 1940, Hermann Göring with Himmler's approval put a hold on the Nisko Plan, and by the end of April, final abandonment was announced by Krüger. Reasons for the abandonment included Frank's refusal to accept further influx of deportees into "his" Generalgouvernement which he viewed as overcrowded, and the fear the Nazis would lose international reputation due to the international press reports. The rationale of the abandonment was not one of principle, but a pragmatic one, and deportations continued though in slower pace.
