Just two days after the Kingdom of Yugoslavia signed the Tripartite Pact and joined the Axis powers, a coup d'état occurred in Belgrade, overthrowing the government. The text references a figure who was Hitler's initial selection to lead the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), but was subsequently arrested by Ante Pavelić. Pavelić then ordered this individual to be sent to the Jasenovac concentration camp. The details surrounding the individual and the reasons for his arrest are not elaborated upon in this excerpt. This event occurred amidst the political turmoil following Yugoslavia’s alignment with the Axis powers and the subsequent coup in Belgrade. The text highlights a power struggle within the newly formed NDH leadership following the coup and the subsequent political upheaval. It suggests early tensions and decisive actions by Pavelić to consolidate his control.
