1:10:03
And the echoes of persecution...
1:10:07
and atrocities...
1:10:09
will not be stilled.
1:10:14
These events cannot help
but color what happens in this courtroom.

1:10:20
But somewhere
in the midst of these events...

1:10:24
the responsibility for the crimes
that we brought forward during this trial...

1:10:31
must be placed in true perspective.
1:10:35
And this is the decision
that faces Your Honors.

1:10:41
It is the dilemma of our times.
1:10:46
It is a dilemma...
1:10:51
that rests with you.
1:10:58
The prosecution rests.
1:11:21
The defendants
may now make their final statements.

1:11:29
Defendant Emil Hahn
may address the tribunal.

1:11:38
Your Honors...
1:11:40
I do not evade the responsibility
for my actions.

1:11:44
On the contrary...
1:11:45
I stand by them before the entire world.
1:11:49
But I will not follow the policy of others.
1:11:53
I will not say of our policy today
that it was wrong...

1:11:56
when yesterday I say it was right.
1:11:59
Germany was fighting for its life.
