==Planning begins==
An ambitious bureaucrat named [[Franz Rademacher]], recently appointed leader of the ''Judenreferat III der Abteilung Deutschland'', or Jewish Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, set the plan in motion on June 3, 1940 with a memorandum to his superior [[Martin Luther (diplomat)|Martin Luther]]. The memorandum included a definition of the mechanics of Jewish evacuation out of Europe. Rademacher espoused the division of eastern and western Jews. The eastern Jews, he felt, were the source of the "militant Jewish intelligentsia", and should be kept close at hand in [[Lublin]], Poland (see [[Nisko Plan]]), to be used as a kind of hostage to keep American Jews in check. The western Jews, he went on, should be removed from Europe entirely, "to Madagascar, for example."<ref name="example">Browning, Christopher R. ''The Origins of the Final Solution.'' 2004.

On receiving the June 3rd memorandum, Luther broached the subject with Foreign Minister Ribbentrop. By June 18, [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]] himself, as well as Ribbentrop, spoke of the Plan with [[Mussolini]] in reference to the fate of France after its defeat. On June 20, Hitler spoke directly of the Madagascar Plan with Grand Admiral [[Erich Raeder]].
