Paul Baudouin (19 December 1894, Paris – 10 February 1964) was a French banker who became a politician. As Vichy foreign prime minister, he was a controversial figure in French occupied Indochina. During Japanese occupation, he was one of the first to articulate the concern that French weakness before the Japanese might signal the end of "white superiority" in the eyes of the "native" Indochinese. Indeed, the French population, which had based its subjugation of indigènes on notions of racial dominance, was dealt a sever blow by the site of Japanese occupying forces.
