Summits on Sums

Chapter 2 in German Reparations, 1919–1932, 2010, pp 47-83 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract This chapter reviews highlights of the series of reparation conferences — ten in all — called by Lloyd George during 1920–21 to agree on a fixed reparations sum in advance of the Reparations Commission decision due before 1 May 1921. Lloyd George wanted to get the French to moderate their demands and meet with the Germans. However, when talks broke down completely with Berlin in April 1921, the Germans were forced to accept on 5 May, under ultimatum, a reparations bill for 132 billion GM.
