Abstract.
Czecho-Slovakia was under pressure of German Reich. Part of its territory was
occupied by German forces even in March 14, 1939. Professor Hans Kelsen’s
Memorandum from August 1939 conceived as a complaint to the forum of the League
of Nations reflects this fact and to that added legal ornaments as legally
entirely void. Our contribution is focused on argumentation on behalf of
peaceful country (Czechoslovakia) and law versus arbitrary force of aggressor.
Key words: Hans
Kelsen’s Memorandum, breaking up of Czecho-Slovakia, March 1939, League of
Nations, void treaties
