The Belarusian Central Council or the Belarusian Central Rada ((ベラルーシ語:Беларуская Цэнтральная Рада, ''Biełaruskaja Centralnaja Rada''); (ドイツ語:Weißruthenischer Zentralrat)) was a pro-Nazi semi-government of Belarus in 1943–44.〔(German) Dallin, Alexander (1958). ''Deutsche Herrschaft in Russland, 1941-1945: Eine Studie über Besatzungspolitik'', pp. 234-236. Droste Verlag GmbH, Düsseldorf.〕 It was a collaborationist structure established by Nazi Germany within the occupational administration of the ''Reichskommissariat Ostland'' in the later stages of Operation Barbarossa.〔 == Background == Immediately after the attack on the Soviet positions in eastern Poland, and across Belarussian SSR in 1941, the mass persecution of Jews by the ''SS'' forward units of ''Einsatzgruppe B'' began, under the command of ''SS-Gruppenführer'' Arthur Nebe. Jews were massacred and ghettos were formed in dozens of towns with the participation of Belarusian collaborators who were given various prominent roles. The Belarusian Auxiliary Police was established and deployed to murder operations particularly in February–March 1942. Following the Germany's rapid conquest, the ''Generalbezirk Weißruthenien'' district of RKO was formed which included the Polish towns of Głębokie (Hlybokaye), Wilejka (Vileyka) in Wilno Voivodeship, Nowogródek (Navahrudak), the capital of Nowogródek voivodship around Polesia, as well as at Smolensk in USSR and in all of Soviet Belarus. In 1942, the German civil authority was extended to Minsk, Slutsk and Barysaw. The area was to be made part of the Nazis' project of Lebensraum ("living space"), in which those deemed non-Aryan would be exterminated or expelled to make way for German colonists, while the remaining locals would be subject to forced Germanization. ''Generalreichskommissar'' Wilhelm Kube was appointed the German administrator of the area. He had his command center established in Minsk with a second ''Kommissar'' in Baranovichi. Kube took a Belarusian mistress, the young Alena Mazanik (pl) (ru) who was an already married waitress.〔 However, in February 1943 Wehrmacht suffered a major military defeat at the Battle of Stalingrad and in August 1943 at the Battle of Kursk. In September 1943, Kube was killed by his Belarusian mistress, who planted a bomb in his bed coerced by the Soviet agents who knew where her son was.〔 In order to drum up fresh troops for the front inside ''Reichskommissariat Ostland'', General Reinhard Gehlen suggested to the German High Command that some concessions be made to the Belarusian collaborators in the form of a puppet state.〔 The ''semi-autonomous'' local government was founded by Nazi Germany in December 1943, and named the Belarusian Central Council. Radasłaŭ Astroŭski, the mayor of Smolensk at that time, was appointed its president.〔 General Kurt von Gottberg who replaced Kube, named a Belarusian nationalist Ivan Jermačenka, arriving from Prague, the "Advisor on Belarusian affairs". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Belarusian Central Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
