At 6.00 p.m. Military Attaché Guo gave a tea party. The Norwegian Military Attaché General W. Steffens said there is news that the German army has retreated from Norway. As for the German army which is stationed in the northern part of Finland, it will be very difficult if they retreat from Norway. This is because North Norway is mountainous, the military cannot move easily and the transportation of bulky ammunition will be a lot more difficult. Probably the most difficult problem of the Finnish surrender is this issue.
