	Pierre Laval - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Leaked to the media in December, the realpolitik Hoare-Laval Pact was widely denounced as an appeasement to Benito Mussolini and Laval was forced to resign on January 22, 1936.
		Laval was enthusiastically pro-Nazi; his demands for a Franco-German military alliance led to him being sacked from the government and arrested in December 13, 1940.
		Laval was largely blamed for the increase in anti-Jewish activities and the decision to send French workers to Germany through la relève and later the Service du Travail Obligatoire.

		This led to the Hoare-Laval Pact concluded in late 1935 by British Foreign Secretary Samuel Hoare (1880-1959, later Lord Templewood), and French Foreign Minister Pierre Laval (1883-1945, later the head of the Vichy government that collaborated with Germany in 1942-45, tried and shot for treason in 1945).
		Indeed, French Foreign Minister Pierre Laval had clearly implied this in January 1935, and the secret Hoare-Laval Pact almost confirmed the deal in December - but it was "leaked" to the press by a French official and never came to fruition.
		Hoare was forced to resign and Mussolini moved closer to Hitler, but the British did not abandon hope of keeping Italy on their side, or at least neutral in a war with Germany.

		Although buried in ignominy, the Hoare-Laval pact was nevertheless not replaced with a determined effort to resist Italian aggression and protect its victim, as Abyssinia would succumb to modern military technology and poison gas in the spring of 1936.
		The subsequent moral outrage in British and French public opinion at this unseemly betrayal of both Abyssinia and the commitment to collective security through the League compelled the pact's embarrassed abortion and the resignation of Hoare.
		With Mussolini threatening a Mediterranean war against League powers if effective sanctions were imposed (an oil embargo, closure of the Suez Canal), and French Premier and Foreign Minister Pierre Laval manifestly unwilling to risk this, British leaders were faced with an impossible dilemma.
