HITLER'S FOREIGN POLICY
Hitler had 3 main foreign policy aims:
Destroy the Treaty of VersaillesWorld War I had been devastating for Germany, as it had been for Britain, France and Russia, However, many Germans had refused to believe they had been defeated. After all, no foreign troops had occupied Germany after the war. Hitler, as was popular with many Germans at the time, believed that Germany had been betrayed by communists and Jews operating in the higher levels of German government and military. They were also to blame for signing the unjust Treaty of Versailles- Hitler would come to call them as the "November criminals". Although Germany had already stopped paying reparations by the time he came to power, he pledged to take back lost territory and rebuild the military.
Create Lebensraum (living space) for the German Volk (German speaking peoples)Hitler was also determined to reunite all ethnic Germans who were now dispersed across Europe as a result of the Treaty of Versailles. He would do this by creating an empire (or Reich) in eastern Europe.
Defeat communismBy defeating the Soviet Union, until 1945 the world's only communist state, Hitler would not only destroy an ideology he blamed for Germany's defeat
in WWI, but also to achieve his second aim of carving out an empire in eastern Europe.
There were 10 steps Hitler took on his way to achieving these aims:
RearmamentSaar plebisciteRemilitarization of the Ruhr (or Rhineland)The Spanish Civil WarAnti-Comintern PactAnschluss with AustriaSudetenland CrisisInvasion of CzechoslovakiaNazi-Soviet PactInvasion of Poland

Answer :
Hitler's goal was to establish the New Order of the Nazi Germany's absolute hegemony in mainland Europe. Until then, its foreign and domestic policies aimed at achieving Lebensraum ("living space") for the Germanic. He ordered the Germans to be armed again and the Wehrmacht invaded Poland in September 1939, causing the outbreak of World War II in Europe. Under Hitler's rule, in 1941 German forces and their European allies occupied much of Europe and North Africa. In 1943, Germany had to defend its territory and suffered a series of defeats in combat. In the last days of the war, when the Battle of Berlin took place in 1945, Hitler married his old lover, Eva Braun. On April 30, 1945, less than two days later, both of them committed suicide in order not to be arrested by the Red Army, then their bodies were burned.
Hitler's supremacist and racially motivated policy resulted in the deaths of some 50 million people during World War II, including 6 million Jews and 5 million "non-Aryans" whose systematic extermination was ordered by Hitler and his closest associates.
