This was the first time that the Nazis admitted great defeat. Does anyone know where I can find the full english transcript?

I don't know if this is a full radio announcement, but this OKW communique had been trimmed.
This is what can be heard. (Add 1943 after Februar and change Hakenkreuzfahne to Hakenkreuzflagge). Sentence from middle paragraph was inserted where the black line is. You can use Google translator.

There are times in history when staying neutral means taking sides.
