The following link goes to this page about Plan Ost. Here are the translated introductory paragraphs:
“The directives on economic policy for the agricultural group of the Economic Staff "Ost", found as early as 1945 in the papers of the German High Command, are the most important addition to the well-known "Barbarossa" plan. This Nazi document contains instructions on how exactly the economic plunder of the territories of the USSR should be carried out after their capture.
The published note, it would seem, has been known for a long time. As document EC-126, presented by the American side, it appeared at the Nuremberg Trials, where the US prosecutor Whitney Harris gave the following characterization of it:
"The pages of this document reveal a pre-developed plan to kill millions of innocent Soviet citizens by starvation. The document clearly states that the murder of millions of innocents was premeditated. The document shows that this murder plan had to be carried out on such a huge scale that it exceeded all the boundaries of human imagination" (The Nuremberg Trials... Vol. 4: 282).
