Signing of the Anti-Comintern Pact between Germany and Japan

Germany and Japan signed the Anti-Comintern Pact in Berlin, a cooperation agreement against the activities of the Communist International. The treaty established the exchange of information and collaboration between both governments to combat the influence of the Comintern. It also contemplated the possibility of incorporating other States into the agreement. Its signing represented an important diplomatic rapprochement between two regimes with expansionist projects and authoritarian political systems. Italy would join later, on November 6, 1937.
